Best place to check out strollers?

So I'm looking for a double stroller and thinking probably a tandem rather than a side by side and was wondering where would be the best place to check out strollers? I think I either want the BJ City Select or the Britax B-Ready but I haven't seen either in person and would like to test it out before I spend all that money. Looking for a place that has both strollers and has knowledgeable people working there. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. TIA!

Baby Grand's Hopkins location. You have to ask because they keep the doubles upstairs.

I agree. That's where I went to check out double strollers last month.

I found the ppl at Buy Buy Baby in Woodbury very helpful.... although I was not looking at double strollers, rather single strollers.

I would look at Buy Buy Baby.

You could try Baby Grand in Hopkins to look at them.  But I wouldn't buy from them because they aren't very nice.

I totally agree about not buying from Baby on Grand because of the rudeness. I've been there twice and both times found the owner/staff very rude. We decided to buy our stuff else where.

Buy Buy Baby is great! I've also found those strollers at USA Baby in Richfield! Very helpful staff too!

I was at the Hopkins Baby on Grand and I agree they are rude there. Not a fan.

I also looked at the double strollers - expensive, $500 and up. I think I will stick with Graco.

The City Select did seem super awesome - I am just not willing to pay that much for a stroller.
