Love this stroller – almost bought the bob.
By K. Kaczmarek
I was set on purchasing the Bob Revolution SE Duallie- hands down I was sold. Then we went to a big box store to test drive with my son’s. Here’s where the change in mind set started. My boys are 11mts and 2 years old. They fit just fine in either stroller now. Both strollers are great. So how did I decide? Here were the main selling points:
1 – Collapsing. The Baby Jogger is SOOO easy! Just pull up on straps and it folds. The Bob wasn’t bad, but there were multiple steps and it wasn’t very smooth.
2 – Head space. Neither of my sons are ‘big’ for their age and in the Bob my 2 year old was pretty much at capacity for head space. The shade actually got in his way. In the Baby jogger he had a good 8 inches of room to grow.
3 – Foot rest. The Bob’s foot rest is cloth; I’m not too sure how that cleans up. The Baby Jogger footrest is plastic, wipes up in a breeze.
4 – Reclining seats. First the recline feature on baby jogger is awesome; just pull down on the strap. I totally struggled with making the seat recline on the Bob. If I had a sleeping child I totally would have woken them up. Secondly the mesh air vent in the baby jogger is key. Both of my little ones are hot boxes and this allows us to vent them a bit thus making sure they don’t overheat. We also have a pergo double and they are all wet after napping in that stroller.
It was really difficult for me to switch gears and not buy the Bob, gut at the end of the day, for us this was the more superior stroller! Hope this review helps!

By momof3girls
Commonsense tells me that having two wheels in the front will help prevent it from going to one side. I have a 10 year old 5 year old and 9 month old daughter. I wanted the bon iron man cuz it wouldn’t swivel which is key to a real running double. I had a single before, it was fine. But with my two being so different in weight I like that one center wheel wouldn’t tAke the heat. Sooooooo, I knew not to buy a swivel center wheel jogger…..bob other types. I couldn’t fathom buying a ironman bob non swivel, I do want something for walks, parks zoo,s. And fAce it a double is big across no matter how you look at it. I have a eddies Bauer double stroller and the big kid only fits in the front making it impossible to maneuver. Phil and teds and britax under the kid thing is nuts for actual comfort and I’m tall and kicked my child with my knees. So after Allll this I took a chance on this four wheeler jogger.
1) great assembly 3 mins max
2) the height is there for my 5 year old
3) I don’t have to lift it to turn when jogging, funny that I tried to which made it more difficult.
4) never veered any direction, hand brake was good, even when I took my 10 year old just to see 60 lbs.
5) not heavy! For a double especially
6) folds great packs great
7) my 9month old fell asleep the first ride! She never slept in the single …….a baby trend she cried on the sidewalk/curbs, these shocks are fine even if not adjustable with different weighted kids, 17 lds and 30 lbs.
8). Swivel is great
9) fit through my front door. Which is a old house more narrow then most.
10) if u want a stroller for swivel but quality runner this is it.
Very satisfied, sorry bob.

Great stroller…only one complaint.
By Jenny Rollins
I love this stroller and it works perfect for my two kids. It is one of the only ones that had an adapter for the Chico carseat. The sunshades come down low and keep the sun off of the kids, it steers super easy, and it rides very smooth. The only complaint I have is that it is very heavy and pretty bulky. It fits in the back of my mini-van but just barely. Overall I am very happy with this stroller and I guess I could use a good arm workout getting it in and out of the van
