Does anyone have this stroller? I am thinking about getting a new stroller (we have a Graco literider) and this one looked interesting. Thoughts?
 
Hi, I just got one of these for our May trip to WDW. Haven't used it too much yet, but it seems really nice. I got the green (word of caution, it is very bright, however this may be a plus, there will be no missing it in the stroller parking lots!). The extra seat/hood were a big plus for me. The size of the sunshade is wonderful! It very comfortably fits my 4 yo who is 43" and 38 lbs (skinny kid:) ) and pushes/steers nicely with him in it. The fold is pretty simple, basket isn't huge, but umbrella strollers aren't known for their baskets. I haven't hung anything on the handles yet, but plan to (have a diaper bag that attaches to the handles), other reviews I have read elsewhere note that it isn't so tippy as the Maclarens.

We'll be taking 2 singles to WDW, DS4 will ride in this and DD2 will either ride in her P3 or a Zooper ZStreet (leaning towards the Zooper...the P3 is our everyday stroller and I love it, but with the child tray and the floating harness, I don't find it to be a great "in and out" stroller and think I'll be frustrated with it).

If you have specific questions about it, let me know, I'd be happy to help. I bought it from amazon sight unseen and it is always a little nerve wracking to buy a stroller without pushing it. I ordered it about 3 weeks ago and paid $149 (free shipping). I thought the price was great for all the features.
 
I just got the groove 2- I got the blue- DH thought the green was TOO bright, and after getting it, I think the blue is a very pretty shade. The best part is the sunshades- I've never seen such amazing shades on a lightweight stroller. And honestly, that is probably the biggest reason I went with it since I've got a fair skinned little redhead. It moves/handles well. It's a little heavy, but it's a double, I'd imagine the single is easier to deal with. Baskets are decent, and the recline is better than my full size double SBS, so that's good. I like that the seat cushions are reversible for weather, too.
 

I have a Joovy, but its the tandem caboose. I do love it & have never had a problem with it. So as far as the brand, it is a good one in my opinion.
 
I have the joovy groove 2 umbrella stroller and it works great! It is the same thing as the joovy groove stroller, just with two seats. If anyone has any questions, ask away and I will be more than happy to answer for you. My stroller is lime green and it is bright, but I figured we will be able to find it in the stroller line up at Disney easy this way. :yay:
 
I also have Joovy Groove single in lime green. I love the color, it was always easy to find at WDW in a sea of gray MacLarens. We tried the macs out at babies r us & they just seemed more complicated when it came to folding & the recline function. I got mine on ebay for $150 & was fortunate that the seller was within driving distance so no shipping costs. I was nervous about buying a stroller I had never seen in person & never been able to try out but I shouldn't have worried. It is a wonderful stroller with a ton of features you won't find on comparable models. I have a ton of pics if you need any. I had a hard time finding a pic of how it looked folded, etc.
