Friends of mine that are moms of two kids close in age have my full respect. And my open door for drinks whenever they need them! How do they do it? Two under two?? Three under three?? Amazing.
Fortunately for my sanity, my kids are all almost exactly 3.5 years apart. This wasn’t by choice. There was a time when my first was under a year that we found ourselves pregnant, and one of the first things I purchased (second-hand!) was a double stroller. Sadly, that pregnancy ended in miscarriage but it gave me a quick lesson on how life can change in an instant when you’re faced with two babies close in age. Our life would have been very different had things turned out differently. Not bad, just different!
So, I can understand why the search for a double-stroller is an important one. Of all the baby items that you need to double-up on when you have two children close in age, pushing two strollers is rather ridiculous. So, a double-stroller for many families is a necessity. There’s so much to choose from of course, and the price definitely goes up with the added features and benefits associated with a double-stroller.
When Stoll-Air reached out to see if I’d be interested in checking out the My Duo Stroller, I was intrigued. What makes this brand so popular with moms? Why does the My Duo get rave reviews like “The Stroll-Air My Duo is nothing short of a mother’s dream come true!” (Pregnancy & Newborn Magazine)?
The box itself is huge, but putting the actual components together took no time at all because of this. Everything you need is at-hand and once you’re all set up, you’re rolling! Literally.
The Stroll-Air My Duo comes with (are you ready for this?):
• lightweight aluminum chassis with wheels
• 2 stroller seats with hoods
• 2 foot covers
• diaper bag with changing pad
• 2 front bars
• large shopping basket with 3 pockets
• 2 mosquito nets
• 2 rain covers
Optional features include a basinette seat if buying this stroller for a newborn sibling, snack-tray and even a hop-on board for a third child to tag along (Oh..my gosh….more praise for moms of 3 pushing them all!!) I liked that the seats themselves can be faced in either direction – so parents can have a younger child facing them while the older child can see the world, for example. Or in the case of fighting children, having them facing opposite directions might work well too…just sayin’.
The 2013 model of the My Duo also has some new and improved features from previous models. These include:
– Locking clip (automatic)
– Magnets on hood peek-a-boo window (LOVE THIS!)
– Deeper seat
– Longer backrest
– Longer footrest
A great website called BabyBunching.com (yes, focused on having two babies back to back!) highlights 12 things to consider when purchasing a double stroller, and I agree these are great things to look at – even when purchasing a single! One thing mentioned by my friends with double-strollers it that it’s important that your double stroller be able to actually get through doors in places you tend to frequent. A stroller holds no value if you can’t get it through the door at your local grocery store!
The My Duo was easier to maneuver than expected – a lot of thought goes into the design I’m sure for this reason. We especially liked the ample storage space underneath (double stroller means double space) which also included pockets to safely store smaller items like your wallet, phone, etc. The hoods are huge (!!) which is a great bonus when walking in the summer months. The 2 front bars are completely removable, and the seats are easy to recline. My husband (because, let’s face it, he’s the one who hauls it) remarked on how light the stroller is (29lbs but it doesn’t feel like it). The Mountain Buggy Terrain, for example, is 29 lbs and is a single stroller. Available in green, red, or black, you’ve got some great color options too!
You can find all the information you need about the Stroll-Air My Duo on the Stroll-Air website, including information on all their products available. The Stroll-Air My Duo currently retails for $799.99 on Stroll-Air.com.
Also, you can watch the creators and owners of Stroll-Air on one of my favorite shows, Dragon’s Den, right here!

Absolutely love reversible seat strollers. I’m seeing a twin version for the first time!
That it only weighs 29 lbs
I love everything about this stroller! And I love it was on Dragon’s Den(I love hat show!) I love the company from Kitchener. It looks phenomenal in the review, and expecting number 5 I would love a double 🙂
I really like that the seats can both face in either direction on their own. Perfect when one kid is sleeping or need attention
For the grandbabies!!
I LOVE the two independent, reversible seats!!! That is just the coolest!! But it comes with so many accessories! It is very cool looking and look at all it can do. It is compact when folded and I just LOVE the green one.
We are going to welcome a 2nd baby this summer and could use a stroller to accommodate both of the kids!
Lightweight and front and back suspension
That is a gorgeous stroller!!! Our children are under two years apart and we thought we could get away without a double stroller until we realized that our two and half year old has become a fan of trying to dart onto the road…scary. I love this one!
This would be the perfect stroller for the zoo. Now we have to rent a wagon if we take 2 grandchildren and they are not very comfortable to pull around. This would be easy to push and it is high enough that the kids could still see the animals.
I like the fully reclining, multi-position seats. If one of the children fell asleep they would still be comfortable as it would recline. No more trying to prop up their little heads so they wouldn’t get a sore neck.
how cool is that- super lightweight- less than 30 pounds- as a mamma of 3 i could appreciate this!
Wow! I can’t help but agree with all the other comments, the fact that the stroller is so light-weight is simply wonderful. I am expecting our first little monkey this Fall, but I have always wanted two if we are lucky. It has taken us years of fertility struggles to get this far, and I am simply over the moon to be expecting. Thanks for the chance to win a great stroller.
I”m due with my second child in June and this would be sooooo helpful!! PLus I have been reading the reviews and it sounds excellent!!
I love the fully reclining, multi-position seats for the stroller- would make it easier to find a comfortable position for the little ones.
I like that is is so lightweight!
In a short few months we are going to have two precious children under 2 yes of age and this amazing cadillac of all strollers would sure make shopping trips and walks so much easier for babies and mommy!!
So many features but love the two independant seats that either or both can be reversible and also love the individual canopies, and one other love is that you can get the bassinet attatchment for one side for the new baby to enjoy a ride out of the bucket seat!!
i love how compact it is!
I love it because its so durable and light weight
I like it because its light weight.
Hi!
We have twins on the way in July- EEEEKKKK!!!
We are so excited, but daunted by the amount of gear it is going to take to raise these babies up to school-age!!
The Stroll-Air looks amazing-I saw the original Dragon’s Den pitch segment, and above all features, I love that the babies can face the parent who’s pushing them…this is a rare feature in a double!!
Also, the fact that Stroll-Air includes so many of the accessories makes them a market stand-out:)

not only is it Canadian but the seats are independent so if you have a babe that wants to look at mom and one that loves to look around and see the world both can be happy.
