Better than Stroller
July 2, 2023
With infant twins and a preschooler, the tandem double-stroller we owned wasn't cutting it. Our stroller didn't have five-point harnesses or adjustable seats, so the babies were often uncomfortable or, if riding in the stroller in their car seats, they had a limited view. And when our 4 year old was tired out, he needed to be carried or pulled separately. With the W4 Luxe, all three kids ride comfortably, and we can leave the diaper bag behind since there's ample space for diapering supplies, toys, and snacks.
