Streamlined Efficiency and Convenience
Double strollers can be bulky and difficult to maneuver, with side x side seats creating an extra-wide profile, or other tandems being too deep to maneuver easily. The Joovy Caboose, however, is designed for streamlined ease. Sporting a neat, compact profile, the Joovy Caboose Stand-on Tandem Stroller is a breeze to get around. It measures 41.5 x 21.5 x 38 inches (HxWxD).A foam-padded handle offers additional comfort, and a roomy under-seat basket provides room for your traveling essentials. A Fun, Comfortable Ride for your Children
The stroller is compatible with many infant car seats (see list below), offering easy "snap and go" convenience for traveling with a young infant. Once your baby is old enough to sit up independently, she can sit facing forward, secured safely with a five-point harness. Snacks and a drink are close at hand thanks to the removable child tray, and a removable sun shade keeps her safe from the elements. Whether you're browsing at the mall or trekking through the zoo, your older child will love the versatility that the Joovy Caboose provides. When she gets tired of walking, she can simply hop onto the standing platform. Comfortably padded handles are available for her to hold. Or she can take a rest on the adjustable, padded seat, which is also equipped with a three-point harness. Compatible Car Seats
The Joovy Caboose ultra-light Tandem Stroller can be used with the following infant car seat models: The Graco Snug Ride Series and Safe Seat; the Peg Perego Primo Viaggio and Primo Viaggio SIP; the Evenflo Embrace; the Compass Light & Portable Infant Car Seat; the Britax Companion; the Safety 1st Designer 22; the Eddie Bauer Infant Car Seat (models 22-625 and 22-626); the Baby Trend Latch-Loc & Flex-Loc; the Chicco Key Fit Car Seat; the Combi Centre Series and Combi Connection; and the Maxi-Cosi Mico. | Also available in: |

Great Stoller! September 3, 2008
I really like my Joovy Caboose! My boys are crazy about it and want to ride in it all of the time. It unfolds easily and is fairly compact when folded up. My biggest complaint the tray on the front. It's not easy to open to get my nine month old strapped in. I have to take the tray off entirely before I try to place my child in the seat. Otherwise, we love it! It's incredibly strong and sturdy- much better than my previous Graco double stroller. I think this stoller will withstand my three sons!
 LOVE it!! August 27, 2008
I got this stroller in the mail yesterday (military). I LOVE it. My active 3 year old actually ENJOYS being able to sit on the bench for our walks, and my 5 month old likes it too. The basket is easy enough to get into once you figure out the bench moves. ;)
2 things - 1, I wish the seat straps in the front seat were softer or padded. My baby fell asleep in the stroller, and the strap rubbed a raw spot on her neck. 2, I wish there were hoods covering the back wheels. It took all of 5 minutes for my toddler to realize she could rest her feet on the wheels, which not only wears her shoes down, it makes the stroller harder to push.
BEST STROLLER EVER!!!!! August 3, 2008
I have 4 kids so have owned various types and brands of strollers. When we had our last baby our youngest at the time was just barely two. She is a wanderer and is in no big hurry to get anywhere. I had decided I was going to need a double stroller for the two younger ones. I went on line and read a million different reviews on several different sit and stand strollers. I knew I didn't want anything big and bulky (like the double strollers) and I didn't want to spend a fortune. I decided to go with the Joovy, even though it was the more expensive one, based on the reviews. I barely had it out of the box before my two year old was wanting to ride. My baby can sit in the front seat with it reclined, while my 2 yr old sits on her seat in the back- there is plenty of room. The size of the stroller is great- not much bigger than a single stroller. If you pull the back seat all the way forward access to the under carriage is very easy. The front seat has an over the shoulder belt system so the baby is totally secure in their seat. Most reviews I read complained about there not being a parent tray, I am actually glad that there is not one- makes it so much easier for my daughter to jump on and off her chair. With a tray she would have to duck to get on and off and well she would hit her head every time. There is a pocket on the back of the front seat which is where I put my H2O bottle and snacks and even with my daughter sitting in the back I can still access that pocket and it doesn't get in her way. This stroller is the most well manuevered stroller I have ever owned. I told my husband we got our monies worth in the first five minutes we had it!!! No question about it, this is a great stroller and there is no way you can be disappointed.
Good stroller with room for improvement July 12, 2008
We got this stroller for our 2 year old and newborn, after buying a $250.00 Graco double stroller that was heavy, long and not comfortable for the toddler. This stroller is slightly longer than a regualer stroller which is great. My now 3 year old can sit or stand when he chooses. Here's where Joovy needs to make improvements:
1. Make the front seat recline all the way. Sometimes I only have the baby, and when he's sleeping, he can't get comfortable with the seat up like that. Also, when we go to friends houses, I don't have a place for him to nap because of the seat.
2. The basket underneath is not deep enough to hold a diaper bag. Make it bigger.
3. The toddler seat could be a little wider and should have a way to lock it into place. My 3 year old often falls off because it slides back.
4. Attach a toddler basket to the side. I actually made one to hold his sippy cup and a car or two. Works great when he is standing and has to hold on with both hands.
5. Add a parent tray. This is so important. I never put drinks in, just want to throw my keys in there while I get the kids out of the car.
6. Change the fabric and add some cushion. The seat is hard as a rock and the fabric is what they make duffle bags out of. Not luxurious at all.
7. The Child tray needs to be easily removable on one side so we can get the kid in. I have to maneuver my 1 year olds legs into the stroller and he usuallly gets caught on the way out.
For this kind of money, these improvements should be a no- brainer!!!
 If your older child is less than 35#, buy the Sit-n-Stand July 10, 2008
I'm moderately happy with our Joovy Caboose but there are several items that might not be clear to people trying to choose between a Sit-n-Stand and a Caboose (and I tried both in the store before buying!). First I'll point out that because my husband believes in weight limits (I think everything is engineered to 1.5 times what they print in the handbook) we had to buy the Caboose because our 4.5 year old is 40 pounds and the Sit-n-Stand only carries a second kid up to 35 pounds.
First, neither the Sit-n-Stand or the Caboose have a lot of room for the older kid, having tried both in the store the Sit-n-Stand has more, but because of a weird carseat configuration the Caboose even less room than it appears when you try it in the store. For reasons I cannot understand if you use an infant carseat (which you will have to for several months since front seat doesn't recline very much) the front seat has to be in its reclined position which further encroaches into the 2nd child's space. We've resorted to ignoring the directions, which seems to work fine. I agree with other reviews that for the older kid sitting isn't a comfortable ride (nothing to lean against, no way to nap) but in fact our 4.5 year old is very happy with just being on the stroller talking to me, so that's worked out OK.
Second it is irritating not to be able to carry coffee or a beer on a walk , and the 35$ accessory holds only water bottles. We've done OK with a 7$ add-on cup holder.
Finally, the Caboose is heavy, and it really fills the trunk of the car. I suspect the same is true of the Sit-n-Stand (although it doesn't have that weird extension for the carseat). Since we use it from home for exercise and don't travel with it, that's OK.
Good news -- the wheels can handle some off-road stuff -- hard packed dirt and gravel, and the dual configuration does bring us together as a family -- we don't have to carry the four year old.
