Our Review of the phil&teds classic buggy

Go on excellent adventures with the thrifty inline, the phil&teds classic buggy. The classic buggy provides proven phil&teds inline innovation - easy steering across a variety of urban landscapes, a double your buggy option, and countless comfort features - with a value-driven price point.

Standout Features:

  • Adapts to the newest additions to the family by converting to a slim tandem double stroller
  • 3 position ezy-seat goes from newborn lie-flat to upright 5 years
  • 2 height adjustable handle for talls and smalls
  • Double rear foot brake
  • Oustanding value

With the right phil&teds accessories, the classic buggy has four possible modes:

  • Single baby stroller
  • Single toddler stroller
  • Double baby and toddler stroller
  • Double toddler stroller

Benefits for You: The phil&teds classic buggy is a baby stroller for money wise parents with one or two children. Families starting with one child and growing to two appreciate the doubles kit, which turns the phil&teds classic into a tandem twin stroller.

For fuss-free three wheeling, the phil&teds classic stroller utilizes an easily maneuverable swivel wheel. Thoughtful details such as a large under seat storage basket and tough washable waterproof fabric handle the everyday rough and tumble of parenting. For extra storage, check out the phil&teds blazing saddles buggy pannier bags.

A foot-operated parking brake allows moms or dads to stop the stroller on inclines with a quick tap of their toes. Transport the stroller from home to car to mall without having to buy a bigger car - the classic folds flat for storage in trunks. Protect your stroller by adding the phil&teds up&away travel bag. Add the phil&teds travel system to turn your classic into an infant car seat compatible stroller.

The handlebar adjusts to two positions for moms and dads both tall and small. If you're still worried you'll be kicking the wheels, check out the phil&teds sport buggy which offers a fully adjustable handlebar. Air tires handle even rough pavement while removable rear mud guards protect your favorite pair of pants. Add the phil&teds thirsty work cup holder for refreshment.

Compatibility: With the phil&teds travel system the classic accepts the following infant car seats:

Benefits for Baby: Kids big or small ride in absolute comfort and safety in the phil&teds classic stroller. Both seats are well padded, and the main seat reclines flat for when they get sleepy. Although the doubles attachment does not recline, children feel super comfortable in the soft padded seat. Children love having their own special seat when the stroller is in tandem mode. For extra padding, check out the phil&teds buggy bunny seat liner.

A sun canopy on the main stroller seat protects baby's delicate skin from the sun's rays, though for extra protection get the phil&teds UV sunny days mesh cover. The sun canopy provides ample shade in most positions; however, when used with the double kit with the newborn in the flat position and the toddler in the second seat, the sun shade is a tight fit over your older child.

For happy babies no matter the weather, use the phil&teds stormy weather cover on rainy days and add the phil&teds snuggle & snooze sleeping bag on wintry days. Turn the classic into a bassinet with the phil&teds cocoon.

Safety:

  • 5-point safety harness
  • Foot brake
  • Meets 5 international safety standards

Comparison: While many parents appreciate the thrifty simplicity of the phil&teds classic buggy, some might want a few extras. The phil&teds sport buggy features a fully adjustable handlebar and comes in multiple colors (the classic comes only in red). While the sport costs more, the addition of these features might tip the scales for some. For a traditional side-by-side double stroller, consider the phil&teds twin buggy.

Like That? Love These! On the go? Get the phil&teds diddie bag. The diddie bag includes a mini diddie and changing mat. For meals at restaurants and grandma's, get the phil&teds metoo. The metoo travel high chair clips on to any table for easy meal times with little ones. And for naps away from home, the phil&teds traveller crib provides a comfy spot just about anywhere.

Every parent should own one!

Reviewer: Janet O. , California Date: February 23, 2010
I have to give credit to my younger sister, who did all the research for me about strollers, before I had my first (now 3 yr old) son. I (naively) was going to buy a different jogger type stroller. Knowing that we were going to eventually have a second child, she found the P&T's and actually purchased it as a baby gift for our first born. When we had our second, she bought the jump seat piece for him! I am so thrilled with this stroller. I LOVE that it is no wider then a regular stroller (IE: doesn't knock people over when going through the grocery store!) It is super easy to handle and fold up. We have just the regular, "Classic" model and are fine with it. A good friend purchased the 'top of the line' Vibe (after LOVING mine) and I do like some of the bells and whistles she has on it. I have purchased a 'generic' extra shade cover for the front seat (I believe it is by Sunshine Kids or something?) as well as a shade/cover piece for the back seat. I did not get the rain cover, as it looked a little cumbersome to get an active "I wanna get in and out alot" toddler out of. Price wise, these strollers are pretty comparable to other joggers/walking stroller, and are truly SUCH an investment. I can't tell you how many people have stopped me on the street, at the park or in the store, to find out more about it--they are always so shocked to see there is a second child 'underneath'! I am so grateful to my sister for finding Phil&Teds! She is due with her first son next month--The Classic P&T's is already on her registry!

Best Stroller Available

Reviewer: Anonymous , Washington DC Date: November 08, 2009
My wife and I have had a P&T in-line for 4 years now and we love it. I have not had any of the issues mentioned in other reviews (bursting tires, easy-to-unlock-straps, etc.) We have recommended the stroller to everyone who asks about it. I also can't say enough about how durable it was- due to a miscommunication be tween my wife and I, we left it behind the car one day and I proceeded to run it over, and despites some scuffs and minor tears it worked perfectly! Also, as an engineer I have a soft spot for well designed devices, and I was impressed with how well the whole "double-kit" system works. I felt it was rather ingenious. We highly recommend this stroller.

Tires are a problem

3
Reviewer: Anonymous , New York, NY Date: October 26, 2009
We purchased this stroller six weeks ago, and while we love how easy and compact it is, we have already had FOUR tire tubes burst on us--FOUR! And it's a hassle to change the tubes, and we've had to go to the bike store to buy new tubes several times. It's a real problem. The first time, it was because we overinflated the tires, but since that first time, we are very cautious about overinflating, and now, it seems, just regular wear and tear on a city street causes a burst tube. The manufacturer REALLY needs to address this problem.

Comments from The Staff:

Thank you so much for your review. I?m sorry to hear that are unhappy with the tires on your phil&teds classic buggy. Based on your feedback, we will be contacting the manufacturer to make sure that the issue can hopefully be corrected on the manufacturing end.

Please feel free to contact us with any other questions or concerns you may have and thanks again for the feedback!

Thanks,
Melissa T.

SO GREAT Even Though Imperfect

4
Reviewer: Gretchen , Nashville, TN Date: June 30, 2009
The Phil & Ted's Classic Buggy Double Stroller is as close to perfect as I can imagine, especially for the price. I have three children under five and cannot imagine life without this stroller. I love smart design, and this stroller has it in spades. The placement of the two seats is genius, and the fact that everything converts to fit the needs of growing children is gravy. I only used the reclining newborn position once, though. Even on smooth asphalt my little one was jostled and swayed too much and the straps didn't cinch small enough for him. (FYI, he was an average-sized newborn at 7+ pounds.) Speaking of the straps, I agree with another reviewer who complained that her preschooler can let herself out of them. My two-year-old does it effortlessly, unfortunately for me. Though bulky and heavy, this stroller is sturdy and easy to maneuver. Other parents often inquire about it when we load it up and take it out. Though the cargo space is small, it's a deficiency I choose to overlook because it fits a diaper bag and three sippy cups just fine. (Personally, I would never opt for the in-line or side-by-side double stroller options in favor of more cargo space.) Tip: if you're a shopaholic who needs room for multiple tote bags, carry a backpack-style diaper bag and/or get a removable hook that fits on the stroller handle instead. My final grouse is that we received a model with a bum wheel. (I'm convinced it's a fluke.) The tire tube ruptured on the first filling and after being replaced, the whheel wobbles and scrapes against the splatter shield. The shields themselves are flimsy. Even with this flaw and the other few, I would still buy this stroller again. It has eliminated any need for me to own another stroller. My final word: You won't find a better combination of function and style for the price.

Good but not Great

Reviewer: Anonymous , Houston, TX Date: April 08, 2009
I'm now in the process of purchasing my 3rd jogging stroller from this site. It has the best customer service, I love it! I previously had a Tike Tech AXT and loved it, but had to get a double. So I got the P&T Classic with the doubles kit and it seemed perfect but...it is not for serious joggers. It does not do well on trails or gravel; it is much more of a street stroller. Another problem is that my youngest child, 8 months old, sat in the back seat and would fall asleep (which normally I would never complain about!) but his neck would slouch forward in a really uncomfortable position, which would make me have to stop frequently and adjust his head. The seat can't recline, obviously, because then it would hit your knees while running. I would have laid him down in the recline position with the extra seat on top, but at his age he didn't like to lie down. Also it has limited storage space. I had to put all my stuff (cups, phones keys, repellent, diapers, and toys) under the stroller which was hard to get to with a child in the back seat! All in all these three things were my main issues. If you can live with that, then I say get it, But for the price you could have much more! I hated getting rid of it, it was compact and light, not to mention, stylish (I got many compliments!) but if you plan on running with it on trails or gravel I would go with something sturdier. Can't wait to try out my new BOB SUS! I didn't want to have to get a huge jogging stroller, but now I'm looking forward to all the luxuries it comes with!

The Only Stroller You'll Need!

Reviewer: Anonymous , New Westminster Date: March 27, 2009
I absolutely LOVE this stroller. I bought it when I was expecting my second & haven't looked back. Prior to this we had a Zooper Boogie (3 wheel) that was great but bulky & not a double. We also had a Maclaren which I LOVED and had gotten very accustomed to it being light and compact. I dreaded moving to a "bus-like" stroller for my 2 under 2. The P&T is so easy to maneouver- it is light and fits through all doorways, shopping aisles, elevators, even escalators! It folds compactly and fits easily in my Jetta (even with the double seat). My toddler enjoyed sitting up high when the baby was in the full recline position (in which she slept VERY well). The baby now enjoys riding upright in the back. (I would note that there is limited room in the shopping basket when the second child is in the rear seat). I find the harness system to be really clever- no wrestling with arms and straps. Great with a wriggly and fussy toddler! The rain cover works well and is easy to get on and off. I appreciate that this stroller easily converts from a single to a double since I can use it when I just have one child out with me. We have the red colour and although it shows dirt it cleans up easily with a soapy cloth. I've had a lot of compliments on its' design and truly enjoy using it shopping, walking, "off roading", running, anywhere really. I'm thoroughly happy with this purchase & we'll use it for years to come! I tell my friends to buy it with their first so they don't end up with muliple strollers by the time they have their second.

LOVE it but Fading away...

Reviewer: Anne , Racine, WI Date: September 06, 2008
I and My husband, yes my husband who doesn't normally like to push a stroller, Absolutely have fallen IN LOVE with this stroller! It is well worth the $$ and more.I have been using this stroller for everything! Walking, Jogging,Beach -lock the front wheel and plowing through the sand is a cinch!, Shopping-finally a double you can actually shop with--clothing shop--easily maneuvers through the tight racks at Macy's,etc. :) It is a smooth ride and both my children love it. They take long naps in it. It is everything and more except there is one thing I am unhappy with and 2 things that could use some improvement. I have Orange and it has faded so much already and it is not quite a year old. I have used it pretty much everyday this summer (the short 3monhths of summer in WI)so it has been in the sun alot but I would expect a little less fading for the price. I have a Maclaren I used religiuosly prior that has not faded and it is 3 years old and it went to the beach with me also. Improvement areas are: sun shade doesn't quite shade the child riding up front, 2nd, I have tall children and I am concerned that a few more inches and my 1 yr old will no longer fit in the jump seat as her head will hit the bar on the jump seat.I still got my money's worth and will still give this a 5. Highly recommend purchasing!Oh and customer service is great. I haven't called about the items I mentioned but when I first purchased I needed a new sun shade as the one in the box was snagged they sent another no quetions asked right away and ther was no mess returning the defective one. A+++ for customer service still thinking about contacting them re the fading.

WONDERFUL

Reviewer: Deborah , Kailua, Hawaii Date: May 26, 2008
We love this stroller! It's great when you have 2 kids and have the ability to use the stroller as a single or double because let's face it...toddlers don't always want to ride. It's so great to have a stroller that converts! It has definite upgrades to the sport including safety features that we were THRILLED they addressed. We love the look and it has an extremely smooth ride. I don't feel like I'm pushing a bus and it's perfect for exercising too, it accomplishes a single, double and joggler all in one. So even though it's expensive, I feel it saved us money by not having to buy 4 different strollers to accomplish what this ONE can. LOVE the adjustable handle, my husband and I have different hight needs, the single I had before this was hard on my husband's back because he had to bend over to push it. He loves the way it looks and handles and now we fight over who gets to push the stroller. I shopped for 6 months trying to find the perfect stroller and when this one was released, I found my perfect stoller and I'm loving it!

Great form, function lacking

3
Reviewer: Gretchen D. , Atlanta, GA Date: May 23, 2008
I have 5 children aged 9 years to 5 weeks. I have owned MANY strollers. I bought this stroller when I was expecting my 4th. If you read the many other reviews of P&T strollers, you'll get a good feeling for their strengths and weaknesses. The only other comment I would add is that the 5 point "safety" harness system on the seats is poorly designed. The push tabs are too easy to unlock, and my 19 month old lets herself out at will. Not safe or convenient, especially with the 5 week old asleep underneath (my stroller is a double). They need to switch to a lock that is harder to figure out, and much harder to execute!

While we have not heard this complaint before, I have forwarded your concerns to the manufacturer. Thank you for taking the time to comment.
