We bought one and I regret it. It's extremely heavy to get up and down the stairs, doesn't fit in our car (so we have to use the van on wagon days), and as a result of all of the foregoing I think we've used it only 10 times. It also takes up a lot of space in our house. Can't wait until the kids are old enough that I can convince my wife to sell it.

Can an infant ride in a wagon?

A 4-seater sounds ridiculous to me, honestly, and I have 3 kids. How about adding a riding board to your double stroller, or wearing the infant while the 2 older kids ride in the stroller?

Do you live in a heavily walkable neighborhood? Do your kids have a SAHP?

We use it but I wouldn’t say it’s essential. The 5yo can walk if needed.

It’s nice to have a wagon for a change, but we didn’t use ours as much as I thought we would because the kind we got was loud on our quiet street and I felt weird rumbling along.

Is it worth getting a 4-seater wagon? We have a 5yo, 2yo and infant. Or does a 2-seater make more sense and 5yo can just walk? Or just a double stroller in that case?
