Ok does anyone have this stroller? Is It really hard to turn? Some of the reviews said it was difficult to steer and recommended getting one without a fixed wheel.
The front wheel is fixed and made to go straight over bumpy terrain. To turn you need to pop up the front end and turn it on its back wheels. If you are thinking of getting a BOB as your only stroller, go with the revolution.

I have the Revolution and when the front wheel is able to move, it's so much easier to maneuver. I took it in our small downtown this weekend with limited space and there was no way I would be able to make the tight turns into the doorways with the wheel fixed.
I think the Utility has a hand brake though? I think that would be a nice feature.
