As a mom of two under five, I used to think a double stroller just meant “twice the bulk, twice the frustration.” Our first was one of those classic tandem doubles: long, heavy, and impossible to fold without removing seats. I dreaded every outing.
Then I found the Austlen Entourage 2.0, a sit-and-stand stroller that actually understood what growing families need. Let me tell you why it changed everything.
My old stroller was a beast
To fit both kids, I had to attach a second seat I didn’t even use half the time. My big kid hated being strapped in when all he wanted to do was hop on and off. The thing barely fit through doorways, and folding it took an eternity, removing seats first then using two hands, a foot, and a prayer. I was done.
The sit-and-stand is genius
The Entourage has a built-in stand platform and bench seat. No extra attachments, no clips to lose. My oldest jumps on when he's tired and jumps off when he’s not. No complaints, no meltdowns. Meanwhile, my baby chills up front in bassinet mode or clicks in with the car seat adapter. Everyone’s happy, including me.
It folds like a dream
This is what sold me: I can fold the stroller with both the main seat, car seat adapters, bench seat, and platform still attached. It’s definitely heavier than some strollers, but I don’t have to support its weight to fold it or load it up in my car. I just stand it up behind my trunk then roll it right into the back. No more wrestling it into the car while keeping the kids from bolting into traffic.
Storage for days
Between the 70-lb storage basket and the removable market tote, I finally have space for diapers, snacks, my purse, and even some groceries. No more hanging bags off the handlebars and praying it doesn’t tip over.
Built for real life
The Entourage is compact when folded, glides over curbs, and turns like a single stroller. I’ve used it at airports, on walks, and during Target runs. It’s hands-down the best stroller for growing families, and I’ll never go back.
If you’re juggling a baby and a bigger kid, skip the bulky double and go for a sit-and-stand stroller that keeps up with real life. The Austlen Entourage? Total game changer.
