Our Review of the Mountain Buggy Urban Designer Double stroller
Mountain Buggy has just released the all-new Urban Designer Series of Mountain Buggy Urban Double strollers. These new models feature specially designed fabric designs for fashion-conscious parents who want to make a bold statement with their Mountain Buggy Urban stroller.
The Mountain Buggy Urban Designer Double stroller provides all the features and benefits of the standard Urban Double stroller, but with designer prints on the seats and canopy that will only be available for 2007.
Mountain Buggy has also released other unique stroller fashions with the Urban Designer Limited Edition Double. There is also the Mountain Buggy Urban Elite Double, offering a unique look and useful extras like a seat insert, padded harness straps, a cup holder, and a diaper bag.
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 29" 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.
- The tires of all Mountain Buggy Strollers are made from Recycled Materials
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.
