One of the Chicco Key Fit styles has almost exactly the same pattern as the Hudson! (not sure what the pattern name is of the Key Fit, but we got ours at Babies R Us).

We have a Graco Snugride that is red and black and looks like it will coordinate with the Berkeley pattern. Try the Surin colorway. I haven't gotten our stroller yet though so I can't say for certain.

Question

When in 2011 will it be released?

Hello,

I'm expecting our second daughter in a couple of weeks and was planning to purchase the Tandem II but if this one will be released soon I'd rather wait for the newer model. I see the answers always say it will be released sometime in 2011, but could you please provide a more specific time during that year?

Thank you!

Question

Are you considering designing a weather/raincover for the contours tandem strollers?

There are only two on the market. The jeep brand is too small and too complex, the other is too expensive and flies right off when the wind blows. Honestly, a weather cover should have been designed and put on the market around the same time the stroller came out.
