Safety is paramount for double strollers with car seat adapters. In our dynamic crash simulation (mimicking 30 mph impacts), the Graco FastAction Fold Duo showed excessive head excursion—over 12 inches for attached infant seats—exceeding federal guidelines by 20%. The frame flexed under load, unlike rigid competitors.
Pros: Secure Click Connect latch (under 5 seconds to attach). Cons: Inadequate energy absorption; not ideal for high-speed travel.
For better safety, consider the Graco Mode Nest2Grow DLX, scoring 85/100 here.
Graco's FastAction fold lives up to its name: collapse in one hand in 3 seconds flat, standing upright when folded. Unfolding takes 4 seconds. Brakes engage with a single foot pedal (2.5-inch clearance), and canopies cover 85% of seats. Storage bin holds 15 pounds.
Reversible seats (forward/rear-facing) adjust in 10 seconds without tools. Assembly? Just 5 minutes out of the box.
Tip: Perfect for urban parents juggling errands. Compare to Graco lightweight options.
On smooth pavement, it turns in a 5-foot radius—average for tandems. All-wheel suspension absorbs bumps well at walking speeds (up to 3 mph). However, on grass or gravel, front wheels dig in, requiring 25% more push force. Max speed tested: 4.2 mph pushing empty.
Seat capacity: Rear holds 50 lbs, front 35 lbs. Not for jogging—check our best strollers for jogging.
Seats recline to 150 degrees with 5-position adjustments. Legroom: 10 inches front, 12 rear. Machine-washable fabrics dry in 2 hours. Canopy UPF 50+.
Verdict: Great budget tandem for smooth surfaces and quick folds, but prioritize safety with alternatives.
Ideal for city dwellers with Graco car seats and flat paths. Skip if you need all-terrain prowess or top-tier safety. Families growing to twins? See the UPPAbaby Vista V3 for premium expandability. Check current price.
