- A guided tour of the 2012 Honda CR-VThe Honda CR-V's popularity is not in question. Consistently one of the best-selling (if not THE best-selling) compact SUVs year in and year out, the CR-V has also been a steady reviewer favorite. At the end of 2011, the latest iteration of this model landed in showrooms. We spent some time with it ourselves, and can say without hesitation that the CR-V […]
- Why you shouldn't diet like a celebrityWhile researching our report on the best weight-loss programs, we learned that the key to keeping weight off is making sustainable, long-term changes. If you don't address -- and adjust -- the habits that put the weight on in the first place, it'll just come right back. Still, it's hard to resist the lure of celebrity diets, plans that promise […]

- When it comes to tech, it's cool to be practicalCovering consumer electronics means wading through a lot of "ooh, shiny!" devices and "game-changing" innovations, many of which quickly fall by the wayside, replaced by something shinier and cooloer.

- House plants you can't killEven with the pleasantly warm weather this week in New York City (thanks global warming), it's hard not to long for a little green right about now.

- Phish of the day: Beware tax-season email scamsIf you've noticed an uptick of spam in your junk mail folder lately, you're not alone.

- A new and (p)interesting way to shop onlineJust a year ago when I was moving into my first apartment, my cousin sent me an invite to a site she thought could help me shop for my new digs: Pinterest.

- Are you buying a big-screen TV for the big game?Over the years, the Super Bowl has grown from just being a game for all the marbles at the end of the NFL season to a near-universal day of celebration and parties that even non-fans can enjoy. Sure there's the spectacle of the game itself, but watching all of those "can you top this" commercials has grown into its own national pastime. And no […]
- Hands-on with four good, cheap new carsI get to drive a lot of different cars throughout the year, and they run the gamut from Powerball-winner hardware to basic, affordable transportation. Sure, the glitzy stuff is a lot of fun, but some of the best new cars I've had the opportunity to try are also among the least expensive. This is good news if you want to buy a new car but have a modest […]

- Can you trust online reviews?The issue of fake user reviews is nothing new. We blogged about it back in 2009 after a Wall Street Journal article exposed the practice by certain companies of having employees post favorable write ups to user-review sites, such as Amazon.com.

- DOT tries to put the "fair" in airfare pricingEarlier this week I booked a flight from New York to Miami. Even though JetBlue only flies to the nearby Fort Lauderdale, I couldn't pass up the advertisement in an e-mail sent to me: Book Today, $89 each way from JFK. When I went online to look up fares, I did not see that fantastic rate; instead the fares were through the roof with the flights I want […]

Review by MommyPeaches for Peg-Perego Aria Twin 60/40 Stroller, Corallo

I have the Mint/black 2006 Aria twin….this one weighs only 14lbs….in 2007 they made the 60/40 split and it now weights 20.7 lbs.
I bought this stroller when my 1st daughter was about 18months and my new daughter was about 8weeks. At the time it seemed like the greatest. The straps ARE AWESOME…lots of people complain about them…but they are supposed to come off…they are tethered to the bottom so the kid can move around and NOT be secured to the back of his seat…my daughters LOVED that….espeically the older they get.
And the weight was GREAT! I’m only 5’5 and my Jeep Commander is HIGH for me to lift a stroller into the trunk. It was SO easy….
And that’s where the great things END! This Stroller has gotten worse. The reason it is so light is because it is made out of mostly PLASTIC. Thanks to flimsy plastic the steering is nigh IMPOSSIBLE! And as the kids get heavier FORGET IT! My 3yr old is a gymnast and ripped and 41lbs….my little ballerina is only 27lbs and when they sit in it it practiacally goes around in circles because it can’t balance the weight difference.
Oh, and believe me I’ve invested close to $5000 in stroller….OH YAH…..my husband hates me for that.
I’ve had
The Jeep jogging Stroller
The BOB Revolution Stroller
The Stokke Xplory Stroller
The Graco Car Seat Stroller Combo
Maclaren Quest Stroller
This Aria Twin Stroller
And my newest and ONLY stroller now
The Bob Duallie Stroller in Orange….Just bought it on here and LOVE IT!!!!
So I know what I”m talking about! Believe me…..this is NOT a good investment. It is so hard to steer and push you will want to thow it away in a year…if not sooner.
Please..if you need a double stroller GET THE BOB DUALLIE!!! IT IS LARGE AND HEAVY BUT IT PUSHES LIKE A DREAM!!! AND IT FITS THROUGH STANDARD DOORWAYS…I’VE TRIED.
Hope this helps….and good luck!

-Test Engineer Report-
Design flaw in brake system: When the stroller is fully loaded with 2 babies, and all four rear wheel brake gear teeth are not perfectly aligned to the locking pins, the brake locking mechanism will not engage/extend to the lock position, no matter how hard the user pulls on the brake cable. When this condition intermittently occurs, the user must lift all four rear wheels off the ground while pulling on the brake cable to allow the four rear wheels to rotate freely and independently of each other, simultaneously aligning each of the rear wheels gear teeth to the locking pins, which allows the brake mechanism to engage/extend to the lock position. Lifting all four rear wheels off the ground {while preventing the front wheels from rolling} is unacceptable for users that are not able to lift the weight of a fully loaded stroller, which is the weight of the stroller itself plus the weight of two babies plus the weight of any items in the cargo basket and diaper bags/items that are attached to the handle bars.

I have a 15 month and a 3 month old so I really needed a double stroller. I read many reviews and I couldn’t decide so I just took a chance on the Aria Twin. I could not be happier with my choice. It is small, lightweight, and maneuvers easily. I go on walks, take it to the mall, and just about everywhere. It folds and unfolds easily and is very compact. We have a Mustang and it fits in the trunk nicely. Its also very stylish. The cons are that even though the sun canopies are pretty big, sometimes it is a problem to cover them from the sun. It’s a little hard to engage the lock but gets easier with practice. Oh and my son likes to poke his little sister and steal her things. Sometimes I look at them and they’re holding hands though.So at least they’re always entertained. Anyways, all in all, it is a good investment..

This is my second double stroller, as my first wore out by the 6th child. I LOVE this stroller! I have not had any of the problems that other reviewers have faced. I use a non peg perego infant car seat in the larger seat and it works perfectly. I have had various children of all weights and sizes sit in the stroller and have not had a single problem steering or things ripping-and I always harness them in. The brake has never given me a problem. It is easy to unfold and collapse. My oldest, a 7 year old can steer it loaded with kids very easily. The seats are easy to recline, even while the kids are in it. This was a problem with my last double-the seat adjustment strings broke. This stroller is NOT made for walks in the woods. It is very lightweight and is perfect for visiting buildings (malls, offices, stores etc) and sidewalk walking. If you are looking for a stroller to take “off road” then you will need a different stroller. With 6 little kids, I pile the basket under the stroller to the max…including very heavy drinks and have never had a problem with the basket sinking or dragging. I drive a Toyota Sienna van and it fits in back like a dream, I can still pile tons of groceries in the back with the stroller in it. My only complaints are that it took me a while to figure out how to open it-which is extremely easy-I was making it too difficult and I cannot find any store that sells the rain cover for it. Luckily the hoods come down very far so until I track one down, we’re “covered”! HIGHLY RECOMMEND this stroller!

This stroller is such garbage!!! The brake system is not reliable, the straps are RIDICULOUS!!!!! I thought that the whole “freedom of movement” thing was such a great idea until I saw my boys constantly working their way out of the straps- no matter how tight I made the waist! I finally cut off the straps that go over the shoulders because they were just useless, easy to slip off and ended up under their bums because they don’t stay attached to the back of the seat. The under carriage storage is very flimsy, made of bendable plastic. Even a large water bottle will force is down so low to the ground it scratches and then the fabric tears. The trays are pretty useless too, since nothing will actually fit in them and they are angled so when you try to put a snack on it, it just falls in their lap. It’s made of VERY cheap plastic all over- no reinforced aluminum on this stroller. The recline is very strange with a kind of pull and push to release thing that is impossible to adjust back to a sitting position while the child is in the seat. I bought this because of the ability to put an infant car seat on the one side, which does work, though it doesn’t have to be another peg perego infant seat as they say. It is very lightweight and has an easy fold. But the wheels are terrible and although it will fit through a doorway, it’s very difficult to manage because the wheels have to be perfectly lined- and that alone is hard to accomplish with such poor steering manueverability. The wheels sticks at the slightest bump in the road or any unlevel surface. The cup holder is pathetic and falls off easily. The supposed peek through window doesn’t work when there is sun, which of course is when you need it right? So basically, it’s great for getting from the car with a sleeping infant and a toddler to your front door and back again, but just awful everywhere else. So NOT worth the price they ask for this stroller. Hope this helps you, so you won’t waste your money and lose your patience on this very expensively cheap product.
