[quote=Anonymous]We used the joovy caboose ultralight.  It has about the same footprint as a single, is pretty maneuverable and is light enough that if the elevator is out I can just put the baby in the carrier, throw my bags over my shoulders, hold the big kid’s hand in one hand and the stroller in the other and take the escalator.

A few notes on our experience:
1) You will always want to have a baby carrier in the stroller.  I kept a cheap ring sling folded up in the parent organizer for just this purpose, because as I said, you never know when you may end up having no elevator or once both elevator and escalator were out at the same station.  ?
2) Figure out a routine with the kids so that it’s not just totally wasted time.  My kids always have a muffin for breakfast during the commute, and when the baby was small would also nurse in the baby carrier.
3) I used two cross-body bags for the commute: one for work stuff and one for kids.  We always did a car pickup at the end of the week and we would restock things like diapers and formula and spare clothes and pick up things like bulky art projects, etc. as part of our Friday routine.[/quote]
