EvenfloPivot Xplore All-Terrain Stroller Wagon (Wayfarer Black)

I am a stroller snob. I own a Bumbleride singleton stroller, and LOVE IT. But when we had two babies back to back I couldn't justify investing in ANOTHER expensive stroller so quickly... but we needed to upgrade to a double. I sort of settled on this Evenflo (again: SNOB!) "in the meantime" b/c it was being sold at a price I couldn't refuse, and I figured we'd at least try it. I LOVE IT!Why I love it:I drive a Chrysler minivan and it fits in the narrow trunk. A lot of other stroller wagons would not-b/c they don't fold in half. This one folds very much like a normal stroller, albeit a bit chunkier. I am short and not that strong, and I can heave it in and out of the trunk no problem (I was worried about this b/c it weighs quite a bit). It also rolls easily when unopened, so there's no need to pick it up and carry it--you can roll it if you need to open it elsewhere. Sometimes this happens to me when parked in a tight spot. My almost three year old and almost two year old fit comfortably and there is a nice little tray that goes between the occupants to keep them from annoying one another. I like that each side has a full canopy for rain/wind. Unlike other wagons there is a foot space that drops lower than the stroller frame, which means their feet aren't sticking straight out into one another. It's surprisingly easy to maneuver and the handle very easily adjusts in height and converts from push stroller to pull wagon. It's nice that the cup holder folds right into the stroller itself when packed up - no need to keep track of it and pull it off before folding up. Overall this thing is really... perfect! I stand impressed!We took it out on a very windy day - and the babies stayed warm tucked inside the full canopies. This thing even handles well on snowy walks. Nice job, Evenflo! Posh level perks, at 1/4 of the cost! We do nature hikes on unpaved trails and also spend a LOT of time on the sidelines of outdoor sports events. This fits our needs perfectly. Very happy mama!

I will start out by saying I have owned the mothership of all wagons, Wonderfold W4. Which I do love BUT it takes up too much trunk space and is too heavy for me to take places. I believe the Wonderfold W4 is 58 lbs and the Evenflo is 37 lbs.I wanted something smaller and lighter for every day use that I can keep in my car, a Suburban, and still have space for groceries.In all honesty I didn’t want to spend money on another expensive wagon only to find it was too heavy and took up my whole trunk again.The wagon was very easy to assemble, just snap on the wheels, click on the canopies, and attach the handle with screws and included Allen wrenches and we were ready to go on a walk in about 10 minutes.I used the wagon with my 20 month old and newly 6 year old. I tried the heavier child in both positions and didn’t notice the wagon handle any differently.The sunshades and good coverage and my 6 year old could fit under. We ended up not using the tray table because my 6 year old’s knees were touching it and it bothered him.The wagon will mostly be used for my 20 month old and the other seat is for kid gear when we are out and about but wanted to test it with a heavier child.One thing I didn’t see in the listing or any reviews that actually was important to me was that the basket could go on either the front or back. So that is the first thing I tested. And in fact the basket works on both the front and back of this wagon.We probably won’t use the nap mat but i tested that out too and is a nice feature if you have kids who will nap while you are out. Mine definitely won’t.I was debating between this wagon and the Veer City. I do not regret it at all! I couldn’t justify spending so much on a wagon and still have to buy the accessories I wanted some of which are on back order for a long time. This wagon has everything you need. I put on a parent console for my drinks. And the. Asker on the back for my kids lunch boxes and cups.We are going to put the wagon through the wringer this week by trying it out at the beach and at the pumpkin patch.I have now taken the wagon to the beaches of Destin, Florida where we have deep powder sand. And to the pumpkin patch at a farm with uneven hilly ground. And the wagon handled both like a champ. I have taken my Wonderfold to this same pumpkin patch and it could not handle the uneven ground but the Evenflo could no problem! And the option to pull the wagon through the sand made getting to the waterline so much easier. I won’t even attempt the beach with the Wonderfold. Now ballon tires would make pulling this wagon effortless. So you will still need to be in decent cardiovascular shape to pull a wagon over the deep sand but it was doable and made getting down to the waterline much easier than trying to carry the baby and the stuff. And especially then once we got to the boardwalk it was smooth sailing again. Sand didn’t even stick to the wagon.While I was sitting next to the wagon on the beach I also realized there is elastic on the side so you can put things in there like water bottles or rolled up towels.What I would possibly improve would be making the footwell have the ability to unzip so you could shake it out. But it was easy enough to vacuum though and I love how big it was. And I wish that Evenflo would make balloon tires for the beach. They would blow the competition out of the water if they did. But over all this was a great buy and I would definitely buy it again.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:We've been so happy with this wagon! We love that we can push or pull, the kids (6 and 3) fit in there comfortably and like pulling the canopy up when they want, and it's a smooth ride and an easy push even fully loaded. We'll definitely be keeping it around for festivals even after the kids outgrow it.

I love everything about this wagon except the sun shade! We live in Texas so full sun coverage is necessary. I’m still playing around with it but I’ll probably pack a light blanket to drape over just in case the sun is at a tricky angle. It would be 10 stars if they built this with a canopy that could provide full coverage. I feel like I’m constantly adjusting it since we’re not always going the same direction. That aside I still love this thing and very happy for my choice!
