Graco DuoGlider LX Review

(*est. $145) Compare Prices

This page is part of a larger ConsumerSearch report on Double Strollers which includes more reviews, analysis and a summary of the top-rated models.

What the reviewers like:
Parents say the Graco DuoGlider’s 30-pound frame is reasonable for a double stroller. This double stroller’s three-point harness is easy to use, and parents also like its maneuverability and seat comfort, with independent sun canopies. But mainly parents appreciate the low price. Although other double strollers are better and more durable, they are also far more expensive.

What the reviewers don’t like:
The Graco DuoGlider isn't known for its long-term durability, according to parents, and its basket can be hard to reach when the seat is fully reclined. Some parents report squeaky wheels and out-of-whack alignment over time. They also say the stroller can be difficult to maneuver as kids get bigger.

Graco DuoGlider LX review highlights

Reviews say the Graco DuoGlider double stroller gets lower scores for durability, but the DuoGlider is still the best budget tandem stroller. Kids like the DuoGlider's "stadium seating," which lets the rear passenger sit a little higher. The Graco DuoGlider weighs 30 pounds, but parents still say it handles and folds pretty well. We found better reviews for some competing double strollers, but models from Peg-Perego and Phil & Teds can cost twice as much.
