Foundations - Trio Triple Tandem Stroller

Comments about Foundations Trio Triple Tandem Stroller:

I have a four year old, 2 year old, and 10 month old. This would be a great stroller for kids 6-36 months. I've got to keep my 4 year old in it to keep him from running out in the street and/or trying to nap under every tree we pass.Pros:It is a very smooth ride. It can easily go over bumps in the sidewalk that stop other strollers. The fabric is very easy to clean. Nice looking stroller!Cons:One of the front wheels broke within the first 5 minutes. AAAHHH! [...] That was frustrating. (The new wheel is doing fine BTW)The basket underneath is silly. Anything that you put in it will cause it to drag along the street putting a big hole in it (mine has one now). I've roped it up with one of our jump ropes in the middle so now I can carry a few things in the front and a few in the back. This is unfortunate because we walk to the grocery store to do our shopping and very little fits underneath.It is heavy enough that if you are strolling along a slanted road your stroller will veer off into the gutter. You can lock the front wheels but it is inconvenient to stop and do that regularly. Besides, the wheels were locked when the wheel broke just after assembly so I try to avoid that now out of paranoia. :)Overall, a beautiful stroller that I bet would be terrific for twins and a toddler or triplets. If you don't need a basket for anything.

I use this stroller with three 1-year olds, and have used it with younger children too. It is narrow enough to take inside a school and the swivel wheels make it easy to manouver. The seats are deep and the straps are easy to adjust. I like the safety hand brake.
However I have to place the heaviest child in the back seat, otherwise it is difficult to lift the stroller up onto the sidewalk when crossing the street, by putting a foot on the bottom rail and tipping the front of the stroller up to climb the sidewalk. I had to adjust the brake on the left back wheel as it was pressing against the wheel when I first used this stroller - now it rolls along just fine. The basket is a little hard to access.
On the whole I love this stroller and it is indispensible to my job as a daycare provider.

I like the stroller, but with 3 children under 2 years, I have a large diaper bag - and this stroller does not have good storage space at all. And it is hard to use the basket area that it does have.

The basket design is poor. It is too low to the ground and after only 2 weeks of use the fabric has multi holes in it. The basket drags on the sidewalk and that is when only have a few things in the basket like...small first aid kit, 2 diapers, wipes, and water bottle. It is also hard to get things in and out of the basket area. I would like a replacement basket if possible at no charge.

This is the second triple stroller we've owned. This one is easier to push and maneuver than the last one. It is also built better yet slightly lighter. The hand brake is a bit of trouble. The material is easy to wash.

The other reviews indicated that it was roomy for the children and I have to disagree. The two back seats have built in foot rests that my 15 month olds' feet already touch. I was hoping for something roomier than the last one for my children.

This stroller is not as fancy as the ones prices over 1k, but it does it's job and it does it well. For it's size the stroller turns and manuevers well, the kids seem pretty comfortable (they have never complained about being put in it), and there is room to grow in all three seats. All of my children are toddlers and large for their age, yet they had plenty of leg room. The seats are padded and wipe off VERY easily. When not in use i fold up the stroller and stand it up in a closet, it doesn't take up any more room than my vacuum. The ONLY downfall is that the front and middle seat only have one reclining position so it's not as comfortable when they are trying to nap.

I love this stroller! It is a bit heavy, but it is very easy to steer and manuver! My triplets seem to enjoy it and are very comfortable in it. I wish it came in other colors!

I shopped around a lot and this was the best value triple stroller for the money. It is not for newborn infants, but for three older children(6 months to 4yrs) this is a great peice of gear. It can't hold a infant car seat, but I did put my newborn in the last seat reclined and supported his feet with a blanket. My 2 & 3 year olds fit great, not cramped. It is not particualy stylish(a bit institutional) and is a bit bulky(works the biceps) but it gets the job done. Tip, buy a velcro fastner strap(I bought one from [...] for 5$) and strap the brake handle closed so you don't have to hold it down while walking. Good Sturdy stroller.
