New Qool Bench Seat, Slate

I think the bench seat was one of the deciding factors for us to get the Joovy Qool stroller. There is going to be less than 2 year age gap between my girls and other “grow-with-your-family” strollers mostly offer the ride on boards which I don’t feel would be enough for my older one to use when we for example go to a zoo or make a quick trip to the library. The bench seat gives her a place to safely sit l, get buckled, and take a break should she need it. That being said, the triple seat set up with the bench is not perfect with limited space available but we plan to use it with two children only and that gives us plenty of flexibility with the offered configurations. It’s also super easy to set up and take off which I really appreciate with not just the bench seat but also all the other parts on the stroller as this was another reason why we switched from another popular brand - the need of separate adapters for each seat / configuration. Overall I am excited to use the bench seat and so is our toddler who climbed right in when we were testing it upon receiving it.

Bench seat accessory for the Joovy Qool stroller. Clips right in and can stay attached while the stroller is folded. I have kids 2,4,8,11 years old. They all have sat on the bench and it holds up great. I definitely recommend this attachment if you have multiple kids

I like that the bench seat is easy to install and you never have to take it out when folding the stroller. Very light also, so it doesnt add much weight to the already heavy joovy qool. I do kick the footrest sometimes so when my kid isnt sitting in the bench seat, i just fold the footrest out of the way. My kid fits in it just fine. Now i cant control what he will do while sitting in it... sometimes when bored, he does reach for the wheels since it's right there. And he will want to twist so he can see the front instead. He's finally stopped lifting up the footrest to his chest (like it's a belly bar)... wish it locked into place while down. Still a great addition to the joovy qool.

so easy to clip onto stroller, you can leave on when you fold stroller up. you cannot!!!! letsomeone sit on it if you have carseats clip in unless they want to lean forward funny. works great for my toddler ! he is always asking to sit on it, so id assume its comfy

this is a cheap product, but great concept. I wish it would work as it was supposed to. Their customer services is terrible so no fixing or exchange. not recommending this brand

I have a 45lbs three year old and a three month old. We use this with a car seat to turn our Qool into a double — much, much easier to push than two seats or seat and car seat, and fairly easy to navigate around narrow NYC store aisles and crowded sidewalks. Definitely recommend for anyone looking for a more compact/easier to push double option. Only two things to flag. First, if you’re on the taller side, you may kick the footrest when walking. (I don’t have this problem at 5’1 but my 6’2 husband does.) Second, kids have full access to the rear wheels while seated on the bench, so can kick feet into the wheels or pinch fingers. My son got his foot caught on one of our first outings and it was pretty scary for everyone. He learned his lesson and it only happened once, but wish I’d noticed the risk and talked to him about it before it was an issue. Other than that it’s been great!

My toddler has been fighting sitting in the bucket seat of the stroller. We were recently gifted this attachment since having our 2nd child and she LOVES this seat. She can see all around. Let’s us know when she’s ready to sit down. Really easy to transition on the stroller

Loved the idea of this bench seat, but in all reality it was super uncomfortable for my less than average height 4 yr old. Her head either hit the seat or she had to lean forward.

Amazing stroller and bench seat. Back folds down so you can put stuff in stroller basket and foot rest folds up out of the way when toddler not using. So handy.

Nice bench but expensive for what it is. Fits seamless and child loves it. Would recommend if having 2 kids. Keep in mind you’ll probably need the extension for the front seat as the seat on the regular setting hits their head when on the bench

If you have a toddler then this is a must have! My daughter loves being able to just hop on and off the bench instead of being in and out of seat. The seats on top have to face out if you are using the bench, but it's easy to switch them around. The only thing I don't like is when my daughter is on it, the foot bar has to be down for her to put her feet on and it sticks out a bit, forcing me to walk leaning forward just a little. It probably wouldn't make much of a difference to anyone else, but I am tall and even with the handle extended to max, I have to lean down/out a bit. If I don't, then my feet hit the bar while walking. It's not a big thing, I still love the seat! and we use it all the time! It's nice too for the weight of the toddler to be directly on the bench near where I push, makes it easier then when she is in a seat on the front. 10/10 would buy this again!

I am absolutely in love with this bench. So does my toddler. Love that I can strap her in (will use this as a discipline tool too) to prevent her from falling down when on the move. Love the adjustable foot rest on it too. Easy to install. Click it into its slot at the back.

I like that my toddler has something to sit on when she's tired I dislike that I can't have anything hanging from the bar because it's in her face. 🙃
