Contending with the likes of the Mountain Buggy Urban Double, the Valco Twin Runabout is the other side of the double all-terrain camp and has many loyal supporters who believe that in bang-for-your-buck the Twin Runabout offers more. The good stuff: it's all-terrain, cushy as all get-out, can accommodate a toddler seat and/or infant carrier, maneuvers like a dream, and tends to be enjoyed as a relatively durable stroller (there are exceptions though). The bad stuff: crappy little sun canopy, annoying to keep clean, surprisingly little storage space, no cup holder or parent tray, and it's annoyingly bulky and heavy to fold and stow. The price IS lower than the MBUD and it does come with more plush fabric and accessories, but let's just say, as a double all-terrain, the Valco Twin is a great stroller with even greater potential if they can iron out their design issues.
