Our Analysis

The luxury Bumbleride Indie Twin has mainly been a success with professional reviewers. The company has addressed a major beef with the previous model: the lack of a latch to keep it from opening when folded. A less popular change is the replacement of the one-hand folding bar with two-hand folding straps. Otherwise, parents say the Bumbleride is a good all-terrain stroller that works well in cramped indoor conditions (it's only 29 inches wide) and on rougher outdoor trails. Thanks to the lockable swivel wheels, it's also possible to go for a jog in this stroller. The big negative is price, and some reviewers say this stroller is just too bulky (even when folded) to be practical. For less than half as much, the Graco Quattro Tour Duo (*Est. $250) is a maneuverable tandem stroller with a flat-reclining rear seat.

The Bumbleride Indie Twin makes it into NAPPA's 2009 honors list published by Parenthood magazine. It's also featured in Hollie Schultz's helpful collection of video reviews at BabyGizmo.com. This stroller is beginning to get more coverage from owners themselves on user review portals such as Buzzillions.com.
