Product details

Our Take

The Caboose UL suits a family with an older rear rider. The included bench and platform require a child at least 2½ years old. The front seat starts at three months, in full recline until six months; a compatible infant seat on the included adapter gives the younger child a newborn route. That front infant seat does not make the rear position suitable for a second baby.

The supplied organizer, child tray and adapter reduce accessory purchases. The published 26.5 lb weight and long 45.25 in folded length are the storage trade-offs. The current product advertises an upgraded one-hand auto-lock fold; the linked older manual describes a different trigger-and-latch sequence, so keep the refresh clearly identified.

What we like

  • Bench, standing platform and infant-seat adapter included.
  • 15 lb basket allowance.

Worth knowing

  • Rear bench/platform minimum is 2½ years.
  • Long folded package; the upgraded fold claim comes from the current product page.

Best for

An infant or younger seated child paired with an older child ready for the rear position.

Consider another option if

Both children need full supported reclining seats in the included configuration.

Published load limits: storage basket 15 lb; parent organizer 5 lb; each cup holder or tray 2 lb; each seat side pocket 1 lb. The stroller folds with the car seat adapter installed, but the infant car seat must come off first. Front wheels rotate to lock forward for straight-line pushing.

Professional review findings

  • BabyGearLab: Generation mismatch — excluded from scoring. This hands-on test covers the earlier Caboose Ultralight Graphite, not the Caboose UL sold today, so its verdict belongs to the predecessor and is not transferred; no expert test of the exact Caboose UL model exists in the curated sources.

Compatibility varies by car seat model. Always verify your exact car seat, stroller, and required adapter with the manufacturer before purchasing or using them. Infant car seats are sold separately unless otherwise specified.

Check before buying

  • Check your infant car seat against the official Joovy car-seat compatibility chart — the Universal Adapter column is the only documented from-newborn route — and remember the rear bench and standing platform stay off-limits until the 2½-year age floor.
  • Researched configuration: Caboose UL in Jet (model 03107) — front seat, rear bench seat, standing platform, child tray, parent organizer and universal car seat adapter are all in the box; infant car seats are sold separately and are not included.
  • The official Caboose Ultralight / Caboose UL chart lists roughly 60 infant car seats across 17 brands under a single Universal Adapter column, and that adapter ships in the box — only chart-listed seats are documented, not every seat each brand makes. Verify your exact seat at the chart link before buying.
  • The front seat is not suitable for a child under 3 months; from 3 to 6 months use the fully reclined position only.
  • The rear bench seat and standing platform are for children at least 2½ years old, under 44 in and under 45 lb.
  • The car seat adapter mounts on the front seat's tray mounts with the seatback in the middle recline; the car seat rides rear-facing with the restraining straps buckled over the lowest part of the seat.
  • Never carry more than two children; load limits: parent organizer 5 lb, each cup holder or tray 2 lb, each seat side pocket 1 lb.
  • The stroller folds with the car seat adapter left in place, but the infant car seat must be removed before folding.
  • Sources disagree about Footrest positions — confirm the current figure with the retailer before buying.
  • Amazon's detail table lists 26 pounds where the manufacturer page states 26.5 lb (it also repeats 26 lb as 'Frame Weight') — confirm the current figure with the manufacturer or retailer before buying.
  • Amazon's folded-size table contradicts the official folded dimensions recorded here and looks mis-keyed (its third number equals the unfolded height) — confirm the current figure with the manufacturer or retailer before buying.

Helpful Questions

Can a newborn ride in the Caboose UL?
Only as an infant car seat. The stroller seat itself starts at 3 months; fully reclined from 3 to 6 months; so from newborn the documented route is a chart-listed infant car seat (sold separately) mounted on the universal adapter that ships in the box.
How old does the second rider need to be?
The rear bench seat and standing platform are rated for a child at least 2½ years old, under 44 in tall and under 45 lb. The manual is explicit that neither position is for younger children.
Is the Caboose UL a jogging stroller?
No jogging designation exists: neither the owner's manual nor the product page makes a jogging or running statement in either direction, and the sources checked never describe the Caboose UL as suitable for running.
How big does it fold, and does the adapter come off?
The product page publishes 45.25 in long, 24.8 in wide and 16 in high folded. The stroller folds with the car seat adapter left mounted, but the infant car seat itself has to come off first.
