I am without a doubt a HUGE Kolcraft fan! While I was pregnant I used the Sealy Sweet Pea 2 in 1 pillow and I still use it to sleep with, I nurse Justin on it, and even as I type this I have him propped up sitting beside me on it! Every night, Justin sleeps in their new Preferred Position™ 2-In-1 Bassinet & Incline Sleeper right beside my bed! Jaxon also had his fair share of Kolcraft products such as one of their walkers and their Jeep play yard. We’ve also had our share of strollers, jogging, umbrella and now we can add the Contours Optima Tandem stroller to our Kolcraft collection!!!
Having a little baby and a toddler going through the terrible 2′s…a double stroller was necessary! I knew I wanted a tandem, and to be able to put Justin’s car seat on it and Jaxon still have plenty of room up front as well as not be too huge and fold up nicely. The Contours Optima Tandem was everything I was looking for! I also love the many different options of how you can have the seats facing, away from each other, towards each other, both forwards, both backwards!!
Here are all the features:
- Lightweight aluminum frame – only 36.8 lbs
- Six different seating options: children can both face parent, face each other, face forward, back to back, front seat only (& large storage in the back), or use with an infant car seat
- Height-adjustable canopies, with peek-in windows, can be raised or lowered: min. 23″ to max. 27″ so your baby is always covered
- Infant car seat attachment fits most car seat brands. Additional infant car seat attachment is sold separately
- Extra large storage basket
- Accommodates one or two infants/children
- Independent reclining seats, child cup holders & sun-rider canopies
- Steering is a breeze with two 8″ front single swivel wheels and 10″ rear never-flat wheels
- Four cupholders, 2 for parents and 2 for children
- Infant head rest
- Easy-trigger fold
- Convenient Free-Stand™ allows the stroller to stand upright when folded
- Height adjustable 5-point safety harness & padded infant head rest sleeves for comfort
- One-year manufacturer warranty
My only problem with it is that to fold it up, you have to take off the infant car seat attachment and turn the front seat around to face the back…it takes some time and is kinda frustrating, but it’s not a huge deal breaker lol. We use this to go over to my Dad’s house, or to get the kids off the bus when it’s nice out.
Putting the stroller together was not too horrible, I had it together in about 20minutes…most of that was getting Jaxon to stop messing with stuff and hiding it from me haha. He did let me put him in it as soon as it was fully put together and got mad at me when I made him get out!!
The Contours Optima Tandem stroller is available at multiple online stores such as BabiesRUs.com for $289.99, BuyBuyBaby.com for $299.99, Diapers.com or $299.99 and many more!
I’m so happy to have this added to our Kolcraft collection and can’t wait until Justin is old enough for the WonderBug Activity center!!!!
