Looking for the perfect stroller? Look no further!

The new Ultralight Caboose is the lightest, most maneuverable tandem stroller available on the market today.

At 21 pounds the Caboose Ultralight is 20% lighter than the original Caboose and far lighter than most double strollers.

When we say maneuverable, we mean it! The Caboose Ultralight can navigate narrow spaces with ease. The large, sealed ball bearing wheels give your children a smooth ride and you’ll find it is super easy to push. And thanks to its minimal weight, you can steer with just one hand!

Kids absolutely love the independence and “cool” element the Caboose offers. The patented Stand-On-Tandem design gives your older child the freedom to choose between walking, standing and sitting. Parents tell us this single feature alone has given their child a head start at developing a healthy independence – a “win-win’ for both parents and kids alike.

The Caboose Ultralight offers a cool, modern style and its tough 600D nylon fabric is available in rich, vivid colors: Blueberry, Orangie, Greenie, Brownie and Black.

Offering families options and flexibility, the Joovy Ultralight Caboose is a great investment for your growing family.

Joovy Caboose 2010 Ultralight Review

Joovy Caboose Ultralight: Review

Posted by DallasMLM on Apr 09, 2010 at 10:30 AM

We’re always in the market for a double-stroller—it’s so difficult to find a comfortable, light, and maneuverable one. I have a very active 2 year-old daughter. We’re expecting #2 in September. We spend most of our week with our friends’ toddlers, as we swap childcare time to help each other out. So we always need a convenient way to tow two kids. I was very pleased to have the opportunity to review the Joovy Caboose Ultralight stroller. This stroller retails for about $269 and comes in a variety of vibrant colors.

First off, there is front and (padded!) rear seating—both with 5-point harness—and a platform in the rear for the option to stand. This was fantastic! If one of the children was standing and got tired, it was very easy to shift them to sit down. The front seat has a 3-position reline, which made it very easy for the sleepy child to rest without imposing on the space of the standing child. The handles for the standing child are padded for extra comfort. The tray in the front seat is easily removed also, for the child—like my daughter—who feels constricted by it. There is an attachment for the use of an infant seat, which is also very easy to snap on.

It is also very light for a double stroller, about 21 lbs, and folds to a very compact size—fits in my sedan’s overstuffed trunk without a problem. The canopy is also very large, which protects both kids from the sun. It was also incredible at “off-roading” uphill—didn’t expect that from an ultra light stroller!

Another fab feature: storage galore! This is one of my favorite things! There is a very roomy basket on the bottom. Best part of this basket: it’s got mesh side pocket for easy access. There is also an organizer on the handle for 2 drinks, cell phone/MP3 player, keys, etc. and a zippered compartment for safekeeping. The drink holder is insulated, keeping drinks cool.

My least favorite aspect was that the turning radius was a bit tricky in smaller places. Nevertheless, this is a great stroller for 2 toddler-preschoolers or for a family of an infant and a toddler. Very convenient and comfortable for all parties involved! I would highly recommend it to anyone with any combination of 2 strollerable kids!

A Mom Like Me Kooper Review

Posted by Jenellesmommy on Apr 08, 2010 at 07:41 PM

     

 I am a city mama so finding a great stroller is very important to me. I do a lot of my traveling by foot and of course that means toting a toddler around with me. I have a couple of strollers and I will say I don’t hate them they have done their job but they are not exactly what I was looking for. I have a Jeep stroller and it is nice but is very bulky and only came in a ugly blue color. I also have an umbrella stroller which I love because it is compact and easy to carry up stairs but I do not like how it doesn’t have anywhere to store stuff, which can really be a pain when you want to spend the day at the park. I also don’t like how it doesn’t have anyway to recline and the canopy it did come with is more decoration then anything else. I was really going to settle with my umbrella stroller and just deal with the lack of stuff it had until I was offered to try the Joovy Kooper stroller( retail value about $199.99). This stroller is a cross between a buggy stroller and an umbrella stroller. The stroller comes in a nice selection of colors, red, black, yellow, green, and brown. It has very durable fabric that is easy to clean, which we all can agree on with kids that is very important. The Joovy Kooper is fairly light and is pretty compact when it is folded up. I really like all of the pockets and the large removable storage bin that it came with. It also has two bottle holders. The removable canopy is amazing. This is probably the biggest thing about the stroller that makes it stand out from the rest. It also has a window so you can keep an eye on your child. This stroller is also very easy to assemble. It pretty much is ready to go out of the box, all you have to do is put on the wheels and the canopy, it doesn’t require any tools. I have had this stroller for about a week now and it is by far the best stroller I have ever used or seen. The Joovy Kooper is easy to maneuver and is great to look at. I am very pleased with this stroller and I would recommend it to anybody. I know that if I ever have to buy a stroller again I will definitely be buying one from the Joovy company. http://www.joovy.com/
Things that make me love the Joovy Kooper:
- Easy to assemble
- Easy to clean and durable fabric
- Comes in nice colors
- Reclines
- Pushes nicely
- Canopy
- Lots of storage room and pockets
- Easy to fold up
- Fairly light
- Reflectors for safety
- Comfortable for the child
