Re: Jeep Jogger
I love this stroller... we go for long walks all over the place (the park, grocery shopping with the large bottom basket) and it was a dream stroller down in disney world. I THINK that joggers have the front wheel locked in place, and this stroller is acually considered "all terrain" or something. Its the swivel front tire option that makes this stroller so easy to maneuver.
IT is also the place where my dd takes all of her naps!
This stroller was one of my best purchases!

Re: Jeep Jogger
A friend of mine told me that the jeep jogger is NOT for jogging. She had bought one and then realized it was a walking stroller so she returned it. She coaches jogging and she said you really have to make sure you use the correct jogging stroller while jogging or it could be dangerous

Re: Jeep Jogger
I agree with the PP that you need a stationary front wheel in order for it to be possibly used for any type of running. I don't know why they call it a jogger!

Re: Jeep Jogger
It is not called a jogger. Most people "assume" it is a jogger since it is 3 wheels. It is the BEST for walking on city streets and just overall on uneven sidewalks, etc. It is very heavy but I love it! DS loves it too and will easily fall asleep in it. Besides, it has a steering wheel. How can you beat that?

ITA. It's NOT a jogger, more of an all-terrain stroller. We love it! Especially the attached MP3 speakers!

Re: Jeep Jogger
Should I return it???
It seems like its a good purchase...but not really what I need...
Dont get me wrong...im no where near a marathon runner, or even a "runner"...but i guess I really should not be even jogging...or "walking fast" in it, right?
TIA

Re: Jeep Jogger
A friend told me to avoid the Jeep jogger as it isn't for "jogging".

Re: Jeep Jogger
Hate to hijack, but did any of you find that yours pulled in either direction? DH and I bought one and LOVED it, but within a week found that it was pulling to the right. We had to return it and are now questioning whether or not to get another one.

It might have pulled if you didn't fill the tires enough.
As for those of you that are worried about it not being a "jogger", if you are really just walking and not jogging, it is fine. If you are out doing more than a few miles a day then I agree this is not the stroller for you. I have to say though, I have not yet regretted getting mine yet and i have had for about a year now. Last summer, I got it because I was walking DS to My Gym every Saturday. It is about a mile away and the pathway is very uneven and hilly. I was struggling with my peg perego over the sidewalks. As I said, it is heavy getting in and out of my car now that I am over 6 months pregnant but I love it so much that I still schlep it everywhere.
