stroller question

[Vaquitita]

anyone used a kolcraft contours options stroller? i'm thinking of getting their double stroller and i wonder: can you change a baby's diaper in those seats?

We owned that stroller but wouldnt buy it again. Diaper changes are easier to do in those seats than an ordinary stroller seat, but still not easy. It never trully lays flat and their bum are cradled.
The stroller is wonderful in that there are lots of options. But its REALLY REALLY REALLY heavy and taking the seats off every time gets to be a hassle...
We bought a new graco duoglider...love it. love it. and it lays flat for diaper changes!

i was debating between the graco quattro duo and the kolcraft. on the graco, it looks like only the back seat lays flat, so how easy is that for diaper changes? is the graco duoglider different?

We have the duoglider, which works well for us. The back seat lays all the way flat (which i wonderful for diaper changes) and the front seat lays 3/4 of the way back, which doesnt make diaper changes great. We actually owned a duo and then got the kolcraft a year later, thinking itd be easier cause of all the different modes. We had it 4 months and ended up leaving it at the town free site. We bought another duoglider. I dont know much about the fancier graco, though....
But, if its ease of diaper changing you are looking for, you have more chance of the duo working for you.
I would never buy a different stroller.

I bought the single one from brus and the wheels offgasswd a really strong plastic/vinyl smell. i isolated it in a room for a week and then took it back because it was still so strong- could be a particularly bad one or just an issue with singles but thought you might want to know. good luck getting the right stroller!!
