It performed better in our push and turn test than most of the other strollers we tested, but was nonetheless difficult to maneuver on uneven terrain or through narrow doors. The sunshades are among the smallest we tested, offering only direct overhead coverage and no peekaboo windows. The UPPAbaby G-Link 2 has a significantly larger canopy.
The Delta took us just over 3 minutes to assemble with an average manual and no components required tools. It is missing certain features we consider essential for double strollers. These include an extra-large basket, reclining seats and adjustable leg rests.
