Nice wagon with a few drawbacks.

The Larktale Caravan Coupe wagon is a beautiful and functional 2 seat wagon. I originally purchased a Larktale Caravan V2 and realized it was too big for our family’s needs. So instead, I decided to purchase this more compact coupe wagon. It seems to be high quality and I really appreciated the added parent console and kids console. Most strollers I have purchased over the last 7 years have not included those. I wanted a wagon with a smaller footprint than our previous Keenz 4S wagon but something that still had the ability to hold a large amount of weight. Being that I have only one child who is 16 months old, I wanted something more compact with the ability to occasionally have my 6-year-old jump in when she gets tired. This wagon offered that ability due to the footwell and weight capacity. Our previous stroller wagon did not have a footwell so it could not really accommodate 2 kids with big age differences as there was no place for my daughter’s long legs to sit. I found this wagon to be very attractive and less bulky compared to others on the market. It feels more high-end than our previous wagon but I do wish they had more color options other than gray. I can see this becoming dirty quickly with the light gray fabric but it does look very nice right now. One feature I loved is the pull handle bar. I love that you can attach or remove it based on your needs. I typically don’t utilize the pull function on a stroller wagon so I like that it can be removed when not needed. However, even with it on, it’s out of the way and hard to access if you do want it. A few cons I had with the wagon were the fact that it is very heavy, and can be difficult to pick up and put in the back of our SUV. Thankfully, I won’t be doing this often but for others who may be purchasing a wagon for everyday use, it could be a problem. I also don’t love that the breakdown requires you to unhook the seats and canopies in order to fold. That can be a little frustrating to have to unhook and rehook each time you use the wagon. One other issue I ran into was when buckling up my daughter in darker conditions. The inside seat is black and so is the harness, I had trouble finding the crotch buckle when we were outside at dusk due to them being the same color. Overall, I think this is a beautiful wagon with lots of nice features. It has a pretty decent push and maneuvers well. I would purchase it again and I’m already recommending it to a few friends of mine!
