Peg Perego Pliko P3 with 6 and 2 yr olds?

[lpandorf]

First, thanks to all the wonderful advice here. I posted a few weeks ago about a stroller and had some replies about the Perego Pliko P3 which I had never seen. I think this would work for us and wanted to see if anyone experience with kids around my ages or size?

DD is 6 and about 50 pounds. On the taller side, I think for a 1st grader. DS will be almost 3 and about 33 pounds and a tall kid. Always 100% height. It will be just me and the two kids. I thought about the Caboose and like it but combine weight of kids is over the max and I really like the looks of the Pliko. DD does not need to ride all the time. But have been with her the past two years (no DS) and she did get tired at night and I was happy to have the stroller for her. With the Pliko she can ride if she is tired. We are flying so would love it for the airport, too.

I have only seen posted about the Pliko with a toddler or baby and maybe a 4 year old as oldest. Would this work with a 6 yr old and 3 yr old?

We took the Pliko with our almost 2 year old (35 pounds) and almost 5 year old (45 pounds). Our 7 year old would sometimes hitch a ride, too (he is 58 pounds). It worked fine for us. Our oldest walked 98% of the time, and our middle son walked 90% of the time. Neither of the kids would ride very long on the "buggy board" step. I only insisted on DS5 riding in large crowds because he is a "wanderer".

We rented a double stroller at Epcot when we stayed late to tour World Showcase. I don't know that my older 2 "needed" it, but it sure made our evening more pleasant to have them wheeled along while eating churros and playing with their light-up spinning toys. What a life!

It is only rated for 40 lbs on the running board but I'm sure it could handle a bit more than that. However, with the weights you are taking about, you are pushing it I think. Try it out in the store and see how easy it is to push with both kids on it. My four and two year olds weigh a bit more than 60lbs combined and it is a breeze to push but it might be difficult with a lot more weight.
