COMFORT TOTAL GRADE: B+
seating
positive reviewsA-
The standard seating on the Valco Twin Runabout received positive reviews from parents for the plush cushiony comfort, several parents appreciated the independent seat recline mechanisms (zipper-belt devices), which recline to nearly flat. Additionally, if you're one of those families with three young 'uns and you end up buying the popular toddler seat, it obviously does not recline and therefore, doesn't provide any form of back support for a sleepy toddler, although your toddler will LOVE sitting up so high and mighty!
driver comfort
positive reviewsA-
The obvious lack of a parent tray (read: no cup holder) did bring on a few complaints against the overall driver comfort afforded by the Twin Runabout. But otherwise, parents were all quite happy with just how easy and one-handed steering the Twin Runabout actually was.
smoothness of ride
positive reviewsA+
As an all-terrain stroller, it's no surprise that the Twin Runabout receives the highest marks for its ultra-smooth ride afforded by the super-duper suspension and four 12 inch pneumatic swivel tires.
weather protection
positive reviewsB-
Ahh Valco, you seemed to have missed the point of a sun canopy: to keep the sun off of the little passengers! Anyway, the lack of any significant sun protection was one of the recurring complaints against the Twin Runabout, although parents did appreciate the peekaboo window.
