Our Review of the Mountain Buggy Urban Double 2007 stroller

The Mountain Buggy Urban Double Stroller is one of the narrowest side-by-side double baby strollers on the market. With dual up front swivel wheels, the Urban Double offers great stability. This configuration is ideal for maneuvering in tight spaces ? an all too common experiences in the urban jungle! At only 28.5" wide, this double stroller fits easily through standard doorways and maintains a relatively low profile?without compromising seat size.

Each seat of the Mountain Buggy Urban Double stroller reclines individually, down to a mere 15 degrees off horizontal, so that both your passengers can relax in their own fashion. The Urban Double also folds up easily and re-opens in a flash. Since this is a double stroller you may have some difficulty getting it into a smaller trunk, but the 12" wheels are much easier to manage than the 16" or 20" tires of a jogging stroller.

The Urban Double, like all Mountain Buggy strollers, is not suitable for serious running. The 12" wheels and front swivel action just won't give you the control and shock absorption while jogging that larger, fixed wheels will. However, since 12" tires are air filled, don't rule the Urban Double out for "power walking" or the occasional light jog. It is amazing how much they smooth out the ride; a huge step above the cheapo rubber and plastic wheels of everyday umbrella strollers.

Be sure to check out the robust line of Mountain Buggy stroller accessories, as they are outstanding and unique.

Bottom Line: There is no denying that the sticker price for the Mountain Buggy Urban Double is high. Imported from their point of production in New Zealand, all Mountain Buggies feature a remarkable attention to detail, and their quality is hard to beat. While these details do not necessarily come through in an image, a side-by-side comparison between a Mountain Buggy double stroller and other, lower-priced strollers is a sure shot. The fabrics, frame, and features offered with Mountain Buggy strollers like the Urban Double confirm their excellent reputation.

Reviewer: Anonymous , Seattle, WA Date: March 19, 2008
I just got my MBUD today, and had to test it out right away. My first impression is that the sun shade is a joke! It does not stay up at all, and does nothing to keep the rain or sun off of their faces (we live in Seattle, so we have more experience with rain than sun!). Other than that, it's a dream! My husband was doing donuts in the parking lot with it. Very smooth handling, very easy to push, and of course it turns on a dime. The storage compartments are great. I can't wait to take it to the zoo!

Fabulous stroller

5
Reviewer: Anonymous , Midwest, Wisconsin Date: February 23, 2008
My MBUD is SO heavy-duty, and it fits through doorways... and it accomodates very well my tall 5 yr old and 3yr old... It is heavy/bulky to load and unload, but it's definitely worth it for the ease of pushing, sturdiness, inflatable tires, etc. We've used ours mostly walking to the parks, library, farmer's market, in airports (definitely go this route and get at the gate check-in of the stroller... it's so nice to have the children contained in the airports ). We've been walking with ours in Portland, Maine and San Franciso, CA, but mostly the midwest! I'd love to know how many miles we have on it...

Good maneuverability, problems with hood

3
Reviewer: Anonymous , San Francisco, CA Date: September 12, 2007
This stroller is quite nice, except for a couple things: the sunhood doesn't stay on, and the stroller is quite bulky and heavy. I also bought the twin bassinet, and have the same problem with the hood - it falls when there's a smallest bump on the road. It can get quite annoying - you have to fix it every several minutes. I didn't expect to have this problem in such an expensive stroller.

Good Investment

Reviewer: Anonymous , Lexington, KY Date: August 26, 2007
So far so good with the stroller. We are using it for a newborn and a two-year old. Our toddler enjoys the smooth ride and he doesn't have any problems napping in it. The stroller is easy to maneuver in both open and tight spaces - I can push it with one hand and it turns on a dime. It's quite easy to open and close, though it is heavy and bulky, as far as lifting it into the back of my SUV. But it is a double, so the weight and bulk are par for the course I suppose. My only frustration is that it seems like we have to pump the back two tires nearly every other time we use the stroller. It's not difficult to do, just a bit of a hassle.

Reviewer: Anonymous , Mobile, Alabama Date: August 20, 2007
Love the stroller, excellent manuverability. What I dislike is airing the tires. The nozzle does not stick out far enough from the tire on 3 of four wheels making adding air quite a challenge. I think it is a tire defect and while I should have sent them back, I did not want the touble of doing so. I had to take the tires to a local biclcle store and have them pull out the air nozzle so we could fill it up. When I tried at home to pull them out, the nozzles kept sinking back into the tires thus making it impossible to fill. I think they were not assembled correctly at the plant. Very anoying considering the price of the stroller. I suggest you fill the tires before you ship the stroller then you will be aware of the tire defect in advance and it won't be so frustrating to your customers.

Good design - Flimsy Buckles

3
Reviewer: Anonymous , Chicago, IL Date: August 16, 2007
Generally, we have been happy with our Mountain Buggy. It maneuvers well and we can get through doorways with ease. We do have one big complaint related to the buckles used to adjust and secure the seats and undercarriage basket. Ours have broken - more than once. We contacted customer service and they sent new buckles. We had to take the seats off (not an easy task) in order for them to be repaired. Once repaired, we found it impossible to get the buckles through the new straps, so we can no longer adjust the seats as we have resorted to knotting the straps together. While we love the design of the stroller, it seems that for the money, the company could come up with a more durable way to secure/adjust the seats - and could be more responsive to customer complaints. In response to other reviews, I will also note that our 3 year old has nearly outgrown the stroller and is no longer comfortable in it, which has become a challenge on long walks/jogs.

good stroller

Reviewer: Anonymous , westerville, ohio Date: August 08, 2007
I love the handling and easy turning. We have had it in some tight spots and can always get it out. We have also had it on some rougher terrain at some parks and it has no problems. It cleans easily and works for our 3 year old as well as our 3 month old. The basket has a good amount of room for a double. I do miss my cup holders and tray from my single stroller. It is a little heavier and bulkier than my old stroller but I expected that. My only major complaint is the smell that the tires have. They are made of recycled rubber and have an overwhelming smell. I keep my stroller in the back of my SUV and the smell was terrible at first. I worried about my kids breathing it in. It has started to dissipate but we still have to keep the windows down sometimes to air it out. We haven't used it yet for jogging as our 3 month old is still too small for that. But if it does as well with jogging as it has so far with everyday outings, we will be happy.

Best Money Spent on Baby Gear

4
Reviewer: Anonymous , Garden City, NY Date: July 30, 2007
I love my MB Urban Double. It's spacious, the seats recline beautifully to allow my babies to get a good amount of napping done on the go! The storage underneath is extensive with pockets for sippy cups or bottles and a zippered area for parent's wallet or keys. MB has a great line of accessories - I've got the sunshade, rain protector and grab-bar - all of which have made the buggy the perfect stroller for any of the elements outdoors or in! I highly recommend this stroller for anyone seeking a versatile double. My only hesitation is the price - it's steep but worth it!
