Bumbleride Indie Twin vs Bob Dualle= help me decide

angelwings111 · May 2011

I can't decide which double stroller to get. I do not jog all that often, but do not want a huge stroller. I know the BOB is bigger than the Bumbleride, but by how much?

Are you able to do light jogging with the bumbleride? I would appreciate any advice! Thanks so much

Also, for those that have the Bumbleride, is the light seagrass color hard to keep clean.

Thanks!!!! Smile

i have the bumbleride and just started using it. it's a great great stroller. the only thing i hate is how it folds up. doesn't fold very small and it's heavy to lift up into my truck. but it steers like a dream!

I chose the bumbleride indie twin because the foot room seemed a lot bigger than the BOB - since the BOB goes to a sharp point in the center due to it's single front wheel. I really like the snack packs that go with the Bumbleride too

Thanks, the snack pack does look like a neat option

We're getting the Bumbleride. My problem with the Bob is the seats don't sit forward enough for my 1 year old-- he hates reclining even a little. We sold our Bob single on Craigslist this weekend because he won't even sit in it. The Bumbleride also reclines all the way, allowing an infant to ride w/o carseat. GL!

As much as I love my BOB Duallie, I would never use it as my everday double. My BOB stays in the garage and is for walking/jogging in our neighborhood. It is HUGE. It is very sturdy and utilitarian, but for things like recline, fold, width (aisles in stores), etc, it would be really tough.

I personally use a tandem double (BJCS) as my everyday stroller for shopping and errands and the BOB for running. But if I was to pick one stroller between the Bumbleride and the BOB I would go for the Bumbleride. It seems to have more of the options that make a stroller more useful for a longer day (snack tray options, recline and seat adjustment, etc). Plus, it is a little narrower which would be nice. My Duallie doesn't fit through some standard doors (our library is an old 1950s Georgian building and the stroller BARELY squeeks through some doors and doesn't fit through others).

We looked at both these and decided on the Bumbleride - we have 2010 version. DH liked the Bob at first, but he didn't like that the handlebar was fixed and couldn't be adjusted. He said it hurt his back after walking around awhile. I liked that the Indie was an everyday stroller and all terrain. It is so easy to maneuver with one hand. I like that both seats recline. Both boys are happy sleeping in it. We're both happy with it and use it a lot. We have the black one so I can't help with the seagrass color. I don't jog, but I have chased after DS1 with it and it was fine. hope this helps.
