Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com Product Description
Life is busy and complicated enough when you have two small children: but with the Graco DuoGlider LX Double Stroller (Fortune) at least getting around is made a whole lot easier. This easy-to-use stroller is built to carry two children in comfortable style--and it includes plenty of great accessories and features to make mom and dad happy, too.

![]() Both seats feature a multi-position recline function. View larger. |
This versatile stroller has two seats that are ideal for use with a toddler and an infant, or even with twins. With the seats positioned in tandem, the rear seat rides higher so both children have a great view of the action. Both seats are compatible with the Graco SnugRide and Graco SafeSeat Infant Car Seats: simply snap your car seats from your vehicle into the stroller and go. Seat the kids directly into the forward-facing seats from the time they can sit up (around 6 months of age) until they reach up to 40 pounds in weight--so even when your children outgrow their infant car seats, you still can use the stroller for years to come.
Each stroller seat is equipped with a three- and five-point harness, an adjustable canopy to shield the kids from sun and rain, and a handy snack tray with a beverage holder. Both seats feature a multi-position recline function, and the back seat can fold down flat to accommodate a napping child.
Convenient, Easy Operation for Parents
Double strollers can be bulky, making them difficult to push and to load into your car. But the Graco DuoGlider LX is just 20 inches wide, making it easy to maneuver through doorways. Its lightweight construction makes the stroller easier to maneuver, as do the lockable swivel front wheels with suspension. And when you're done with your walk, the stroller's one-handed fold-and-latch mechanism easily collapses the stroller. The stroller includes a drop-down basket that offers easy access to your gear, even when the back seat is fully reclined; and the parent storage tray includes a convenient cup holder.
About Graco
In 1942, Russell Gray and Robert Cone formed Graco Metal Products, in Philadelphia, PA. For 11 years, the firm fabricated machine and car parts for local manufacturers. In 1953, Gray left the firm, leaving Cone as sole owner. Cone decided to manufacture his own line of products, but had trouble coming up with ideas. Enter David Saint, an engineer, tinkerer, and stained glass artisan who worked for Graco. Saint, himself a father of nine, was intrigued when an associate told him how his wife would soothe their tired and cranky baby while swinging in a backyard glider swing. Acting on this inspiration, he went to the drawing board and 18 months of hard work later, the world's first wind-up infant swing, the Graco Swyngomatic, was born. Graco sold millions of Swyngomatics in the coming years, becoming one of the world's leading manufacturers of juvenile products in the process. Today, Graco is a Newell Rubbermaid company, with 1500 associates worldwide. While a half-century has brought many changes to Graco, their dedication and commitment to designing and manufacturing top-quality products remains, and continues on.

Good Deal at First...
We bought this stroller when we were expecting our twins. (Based on input from another multiple mom who couldn't stop raving about it). We were happy with the stroller for the first several months. However, there were things about the stroller that DEFINITELY need to be improved:
1) The basket underneath started dragging on the ground after just a few uses (with light toys stored underneath).
2) The front wheels started getting caught in the basket when we would open the stroller...which is happening almost everytime we open it now.
3) The harnesses are SUCH a pain. They should have made them similar to the harness that they use for the car seats that accompany this stroller.
4) If you don't remove the front tray EVERY time before folding down the stroller, it gets scratched up easily.
5) As our children got older, the stroller became harder to maneuver. One of the reasons I wanted this stroller was that I was told how easy it was to turn with one hand. However, my children are only 18 & 21 lbs., and it's already difficult to turn the stroller.
6) The weight. It is definitely one of the heavier strollers. However, I've gotten used to that.
7) Only two seat adjustments on the back seat. All the way reclined, or all the way up.
So, all in all, this was a good 'first' stroller for twins...but not something that we can use for much longer. It did maneuver well at first, but no longer.
What a super double deal!
After reading the reviews and comparing it with more expensive and sleek looking strollers and to its own Graco Quattro Duo stroller, I am SO glad I decided on this one! I already own the single Graco Quattro Duo stroller and loved it SO much, that I really wanted to stay w/Graco if I could.
At first, I was unsure if the frame looked as sturdy as the one I had because the back wheels aren't as large as my solo Quattro Deluxe. I really put my single stroller through everything, so I wanted to make sure it was built to speed. So, I called Graco's customer service and they explained all the measurements to me so that I could compare, and since wheeling it around town, everything seems alright.
The reason I didn't purchase the more expensive double Graco Quattro Tour Duo was b/c I wasn't sure it was going to fit in the trunk of my Honda Civic '05, I didn't really like the tray attached, and the weight was slightly heavier.
Like my single Graco stroller, I like this one because:
1)I have the snack/cup and full tray available, and a tray for my own goodies.
2)It is easy to steer and manuever ( I can hold my infant and still steer my 30 lb., 2 1/2 year old w/ONE hand!
3)There is roomy storage space underneath.
4)It folds up fairly easy. (sometimes I need to adjust the wheels or fold the front canopy forward.
5)Fits perfectly in the trunk of my '05 Honda Civic.(with a bit of room behind it to spare)
6)Easy enough to lift into my trunk on my own.(I'm petite and not a muscular woman by any means, but any double stroller isn't expected to be light enough)
7)Feels sturdy and secure enough to ride on the sidewalk to dirt pathways.
But, there are a couple things I was disappointed about:
1)Maybe I don't have the movement down, but I always have trouble lifting /undoing my Snugride Infant seat from the rear seat tray area. And putting it IN the stroller can be a pain b/c you have to first make sure the seat is fully reclined, and then slide the carseat all the way to the back of the canopy, and then snap it in while your infant is in the seat. So, it's just a bit tricky, and taxing on your back. And once in place, you have to make sure the handle is at 45 degrees or else your front seated toddler is going to hit his head on the carseat handle.
2)The front seat for my 30lb., 34 1/2" tall, 2 1/2 year old toddler seems small and uncomfortable although he is not complaining about it. If he slouches on the seat, his bottom is already halfway off the seat. And the backrest is not tall enough to completely support his head. (it's about 2"short. My solo Graco's seat was tall enough to support his head and body.)And sometimes I have to prop his feet up on the footstand when he falls asleep.
Overall, I do love this stroller, and it looks WAY more sportier and updated than in this picture on Amazon. The trim is this dotted, checkered looking pattern. So glad I didn't spend the extra $100 on the Quattro Tour Duo! MOney well spent on this one!
Great Stroller
I have a special needs 2 & 1/2 year old who needs to be in a stroller for longs walks or trips to the mall/store. I've also just had a baby. I needed a double stroller to take them both out and after research and price checks, I chose this one. There is plenty of room for my 2 & 1/2 year old in the front and the car seat by Graco fits into the back great. When the new baby is ready, there will be tons of room for him in the back too. It rides nicely and is easy to push and turn. Great product!
