Did not think it so bad

We bought the stroller and we did have the other problems stated and I complained to the company. They sent me a brand new stroller. They have great customer service and the stroller's great...
Throw It In The Garbage
r
One of the worst purchases I've ever made. The stroller will not work without inflating the tires, and guess what? They are impossible to inflate! The design of this stroller is so poor so as to make it actually unusable. It's a shame there are products like this on the market. It is especially infuriating given the large price tag. I wish I could more eloquent in my loathing of this piece of junk, but having flushed $400 down the toilet has me at a loss for words.
Heavy Heavy Heavy and IMPOSSIBLE buckles
r
Tike Tech represents to retailers that this stroller is 26 pounds. When I received it, I couldn't believe the beast I unpacked. Took both tots out twice in it, once to the beach and once on a neighborhood walk. The beach area was fairly flat, so not terrible to push, but the buckles were so cheap and difficult to adjust, that I gave up on buckling my tots in and relied on the safety bar instead. Found out soon that the safety bar is a major chore to remove, so couldn't let my children climb up themselves, though they tried to slide down and out under bar to get out but got stuck. The sunshades were so stiff that they continually detached from stroller frame when adjusting. Both tots complained of being uncomfortable in seats. My son said he wanted to use the yellow stroller next time instead (the Bob Duallie Ironman that we also have). On our second outing in the Trax360, we took a walk in neighborhood to the gym. I was shocked at how hard it was to push up one of the small hills nearby where we live (granted, we live in San Francisco). But I knew something was wrong, because my Ironman and my Phil & Teds is not the same chore on the same hill. Sure enough, I put the stroller on the scale, and it's a 40 pounder! It's advertised at 26 pounds, and that's over 10 pounds of unethical advertising discrepancy. I had also previously purchased for my first tot when a small baby, a Schwinn Everyday Stroller (made and distributed by Instep), that was also mis-advertised at 16 lbs, when in fact it was 28 lbs - wow! Very disappointed in ethics of company (the way they do this is by omitting the weight of the wheels and all removable accessories, and just provide weight of the stroller frame). At least I knew to get mine through Target, just in case, so was able to just return to local store (even though customer service complained about it looking "used"). Sorry, if it's defective, it's defective, and also it's not as advertised. For $400, I expect to get something I can use. Lately I've just been using the Phil & Teds Buggy to tote both tots around on my own. Didn't think they would like being tandem, but they love it. Avoid the Tike Tech brand.
