Keens
We bought the Keenz XC - Luxury Comfort Stroller Wagon 2 Passenger wagon for our family vacation with a two year old and an eight month old. We love it. You can tell it’s a quality product right out of the box. It was easy to assemble and is heavy duty. We got lots of compliments from strangers everywhere we went about how nice it looked. Lots of people were inquiring about the brand because they were interested in getting one for themselves or others they know with two little ones.
Pros
-5-point harness with raised seats. Kids are secure and there is room under the seats for storage without taking their foot space away. Our kids are tall, so I expect this wagon will still be usable as they get older.
-Large tires make any terrain pretty easy to navigate. Sidewalks are a breeze. Grass and gravel are easy. We took it out on the beach with both kids and our gear and it was relatively easy to push/pull with one parent on each end. It would be difficult to push without a second person on sand.
-Handles tilt into multiple positions making it easy for a fairly tall person to push without running into the wagon or having to bend over to reach the handle. We’re both about 5’9” and the wagon would still be fine if we were taller.
-Storage, storage, storage. We packed everything we needed for ourselves and two kids to be out and about for the entire day with plenty of room to spare. It’s easy to have what you need and stay organized with this wagon.
-Easily fits through standard door openings and navigates through mazes of people and souvenir shops.
-Works great on hot days and cold days since there are flaps to block the wind when you need to on both the wagon sides and the canopy.
-Comes with snack tray. We didn’t use this, but it’s nice the option is there if you want it.
-Doubles as a luggage cart when needed. We were able to put all our luggage in and on the wagon to move it to and from our hotel room when the hotel carts were not available. This was a game changer for us.
-Easy to fold, but you do have to unclip the seats to fold it.
Cons
-No reclining seats. Whenever our baby fell asleep we either had to prop his head with blankets or get our toddler out so the baby could sleep in the foot area.
-Sunshade doesn’t have as much coverage as wagons with tilting shades, but we were prepared with hats, sun shirts, and sunglasses.
-No parent cup holders, which wasn’t a dealbreaker for us because the side pockets easily fit our 42oz steel water bottles. If you need a place for your coffee or something that isn’t in a leakproof cup there isn’t anything included with this wagon.
-It’s large which is not a big deal for us because we drive big vehicles, but if your car is smaller it could be a problem. We don’t have to remove the wheels in our vehicles but you could if you needed more space. It is heavy and awkward to lift if you’re not used to lifting around 50lbs.
