Does anyone have any experiences with BOB Strollers?

I have decided to get one.

I cancelled my gym membership because I don't want to be away from DS the 4 days I am home, but want to get back in shape. I used to run alot, so I am going to get back into and I can bring him. I think he will really like and most likely sleep during the our runs and fresh air too. I am really looking forward to this.

Okay, sorry for going off on a tangent.

I am trying to figure out which BOB Stroller is best for me.

I am leaning towards the Ironman Sport Utility Stroller - Yellow:

I'm interested in a BOB duallie (the Revoliution to be more specific) and I'm curious what people would recommend.

bumping to see if anyone has any experience, I really want to get one and start running and I am torn between the BOB Ironman stroller and the BOB Revolution Stroller.

No personal experience, but I have seen people with them on the Jones Beach boardwalk and they look awesome!

The Revolution (I just texted herChat Icon )

She said it is wonderful and she is sad (not really) she is pg with #2 and will have to stop using it for a while.

Do you want me to forward you her stroller spreadsheet? It has all the joggers on it.

We have the Ironman (yellow) and use it all the time. Love it so much that we ditched our regular stroller & use this one for everything.

We originally bought it with the idea that we would run with DD but that never materialized. It's still one of the best purchases we've made.

I have the Revolution and I LOVE it!! I live in a really hilly area and its great because it has shocks. Also, the revolution is nice because the front wheel can be locked or unlocked to swivel ( Although I have heard that if you are a serious runner then a stationary front wheel is better).

Let me know if you have any specific questions.!!Chat Icon

I can't tell you how much I love you, JaniceChat Icon Chat Icon

Yes, I have the Revolution and LOVE LOVE LOVE it!!!!!!!!! Steven loves it tooChat Icon

Keep in mind joggers are heavy and bulky...with that said, it is so easy to transport. I have to lug it up and down two flights of stairs and can do so while holding Steven. The wheels are easy to take off and put on for more room in the trunk. It is so smooth and easy. And, it has great features while jogging. It's easy to ajust the back, the sun shade, everything and I don't have to stop.

So worth the money!!!!!!

Re: Does anyone have any experiences with BOB Strollers?

I have the Revolution and it is by far the best $$ I've spent on a stroller. I use it with DS a few times per week and trained for a 10K using it. It's very easy to maneuver, easy to fold once you get the hang of it and is great on hills and uneven road surfaces. DS falls asleep almost every time we're out and about with it. I'm looking forward to getting the Dualie after baby #2 arrives this Spring.
