The best it gets for a 2 seater stroller/ wagon!
I consider myself to be pretty well versed in both strollers and wagons. This is my 3rd wagon and I’ve spent a lot of time researching the best fit. There’s no perfect wagon, but this comes as close as possible for my needs and experience. I have the W4 Luxe Wonderfold and I previously owned the Keenz XC-. Both are way too big and I find myself a bit annoyed when pushing an empty wagon. I keep the W4 for things where I need a lot of storage and basically just plan on taking it to keep in the same spot, but with my oldest outgrowing strollers and still wanting to be pushed everywhere I needed something different. The caravan coupe is the answer to this and my “daily driver”.
My kids are 1 and 4 and my 4 year old is HUGE. She’s the size of a 7 year old, 46 inches and 57 pounds so that’s been part of the struggle. I thought my only option was the W4 Wonderfold or destroying a stroller that she looks ridiculous in. This girl loves to sit and be carted around and if I can’t do it somehow I’ll never be able to leave the house with her.
Biggest pros:
– comfortably fits my 4 year old, sunshade and all
– A ONE HANDED PUSH!!! Even fully loaded with my 57 pounder in there. I can hold my 1 year old and not have to stand there or reason with my 4 year about why she needs to get out and walk. My main goal. (the W4 is never a 1 handed push).
– manuverablity
– visibility, the lowness to the ground helps, if you’ve ever had one of the massive high above the ground wagons you just feel like you’re going to run into things all the time that you can’t see
– the parent console is a great design, attaches well and the wasn’t sure about the nets to hold drinks, but it works really well
– leaves plenty of cargo space when loaded into my small SUV
-easy to load/unload
Biggest cons:
– shared foot room is a bit of an issue because my 4 year old doesn’t have the most gentle demeanor, but it should be easier when she’s well rested or as she matures. There’s no solution for this unless you get massive wagon.
– the storage is a little low, but you can easily add more with stroller hooks, I have a cargo net coming. It seems like the horizontal bar by the parent console is the perfect place to add this.
– doesn’t come with a great snack tray for a young toddler, but most high end wagons and strollers don’t anyway, snack trays aren’t usually something you use for very long anyway and for some reason they’re too high up when you need them. This is no except, when my 1 year old is sitting any tray I would add would be above eye level.
I highly recommend this wagon, there’s no better way to design a wagon this roomy and compact at the same time!
