I think you will find every mom on here has a different answer for what works for them. We went with the travel system kind-of. We got the Graco Duo Glider and the two infant car seats that matched it. We LOVE it ... couldn't be more pleased. The stroller is easy to maneuver. It is very easy to close one-handed, locks itself together automatically and I can pick it up and put it in the trunk with one hand. About the only hard part (for me, DH has no trouble with it) is getting it unlatched. That is definitely a two-handed evolution. I really like being able to just pick up the car seats and lock them in to the stroller. They STILL get put in the stroller that way now when we are out at a store, because like someone else mentioned if they are napping it is just easier to let them nap. It was even more helpful for that when they were firstborn. I don't think I would have gone out nearly as often or made nearly so many stops on 'errand days' if I had to get them each out of their car seats and into a carrier every time. I will say though that when I go grocery shopping with them alone, I wear one and leave the other one in their car seat on the cart. (this is off topic, but can I just say I CANT WAIT until they are sitting up well enough that I can sit them both up in the cart for grocery shopping)
I wanted a stroller that would work when they were babies and could continue to be used as they got older ... and as I said I love my choice ... it works well for us. We do have two inexpensive single jogging strollers that we use when we both take them on walks around the neighborhood, to the beach, etc also. When we go out to crowded places (festivals etc) we take the double stroller, beause it is actually easier to get through places than two jogging strollers.
