Jogging Strollers

Any recommendations or opinions on which to buy? Some like the BOB Revolution are almost $400....why? I don't mind spending a lot if I have to in order to get the best....but is there really any advantages vs the Baby Trend which is only $125?

  • I have the Baby Trend one. We got it from Burlington, so it doesn't have some of the extras like the ones at BRU. But its a good stroller, it goes anywhere and does everything I need it to.

    I second this recommendation although we don't jog. It's great for walking though!

  • I love my Baby Trend! I paid $110 for it, and at the time I was all "oh, but it doesn't come in cute colors." Now, there is no way I would buy a BOB or any other $300< stroller. It glides smoothly, turns on a dime, and has all the storage I need. Also, at 5' it's often hard for me to manage large "things," but this stroller folds up so easily, and it is a dream to handle!

    I recommend it very highly. 

  • We have Baby Trend too. I found ours at a garage sale for 40. It's not the newest model... And I got it just for outdoors but like it so much it's now my fulltime stroller.

  • DH and I do some hard core running....I heard that I need to make sure it is an actual rubber wheel bc that will hold up outside on uneven ground. Is Baby Trend rubber?

  • It does have rubber wheels. Same as bike tires. It also has a locking front wheel, so it can be locked while running then unlocked for easier maneuvering when not running.

    Mine are rubber, like a bike tire. I made sure because I didn't want plastic ones. 

  • I got a used Bob Ironman on Craig's List. No way in hell i would have spent all that money on a new one. Now would probably be a good time. I doubt there are many people looking for one with winter right around the corner. That's what i did last year and was able to look at a couple.
