thank you! Really interesting insight into what makes strollers good quality/last. we got the geo1 used and we live in the city, so it's mostly fine and works well enough for buses and trams. But it's exactly like you said: the wheels/suspension make it a city-stroller but it's built to last and makes you wish you could go off-road a bit. We got it used, it was 6 years old (it was used for three kids before our boy) and it works and folds perfectly. We do get into off-road kind of situations infrequently, so it's mostly fine.
Joolz Geo 2 is the worst stroller I have ever encountered after two kids. Something is very wrong with the way it is constructed. I am not an expert in physics but my guess is that the center of gravity is somehow misplaced. You have to push SO hard on the handle to lift it over literally every curb. Does not help that the stroller is heavy as a bulldozer.
Amazing review!! Thankyou . Also I've heard from other people that if you lock the front wheels into place its apparently meant to make the ride for bubs less rocky if that makes sense.
Yeap. I've got one and when you lock the front wheels before walking on rocky roads, it's pretty smooth. They tell you this before purchasing. I highly recommend this pram 👌🏾
it helps a bit. Also, if you live somewhere where it snows (or travel to the mountains), it also helps with riding over snow. We did end up mounting little stroller skis, though.
I'm in doubt between the Bugaboo Fox 2 and this Joolz Geo 2. Which one would you recommend? Or should I also look at the Stokke Trailz? A compact fold would be nice, and being able to use it at the park or on forest type trails is also important.
Which one did you buy ? I’m also doubting between bugaboo fox 2 and geo 2. If I’m not mistaking fox 2 has good suspension in the front wheels and it’s all terrain. You can even take the trolley to the beach terrain, at least that’s what the advertisement says 🧐 but I like the geo 2 because who knows we might have a second baby in the future 🧐🧐🧐.
I like both of these models, but despite being a little more sturdy and terrain capable, I find the Geo 2 not to be quite good enough in these respects to fully justify the added weight in mono-mode (I assume this is what you're thinking), so the most you'll really gain is better storage capacity in the shopping basket. :)
Hi Was wondering if you could help me. I have the Joolz geo 2 and for the lower seat I have a cot and I’ve just bought an upper seat frame. I’m trying to connect my Joolz geo 2 seat fabric to it but it seems to be a different size. I’m confused??
The main and tandem seats are different on the Geo 2 I believe, so this probably won't work. It's possible I'm mistaken though, so if you've read otherwise, just contact Joolz customer service, they're really nice. :)
All the stroller comes a little wobbly because if it’s to Steph, it will cause damage over time! The bugaboo donkey handle bar does the same thing, coming out of the box, I would also like to point out that most double strollers on the market does not have suspension, a lot of stroller companies are aware of that, that’s why it’s warranty! They focus on the tires for the All terrain! Example, the new bugaboo donkey, does not have Air-flit tires! It’s foam flit tires!

Loved it ✌🏻
Looking forward for a review and comparison with Geo3
This is coming soon. :)

Does this stroller stand upright when in a folded position?
Which one would you recommend between the Uppababy Vista and the Joolz Geo 2 or Joolz Day3?? Thank you ver y much!!
Joolz geo 2

None of these will be optimal on forest trails, unfortunately, nor do they have compact folds :)

Thank you. Any thoughts on the joolz hub?
How would you compare Joolz Day+ and Joolz Geo 2? Other than the Duo functionality. What other differences to keep in mind?
I like both of these models, but despite being a little more sturdy and terrain capable, I find the Geo 2 not to be quite good enough in these respects to fully justify the added weight in mono-mode (I assume this is what you're thinking), so the most you'll really gain is better storage capacity in the shopping basket. :)

So whats the best option?
I dislike the name as well plus the build to me looks chunky in an awkward clumsy way
