Double stroller: Bob vs. Baby Jogger Summit x3

Hi there. Looking to get a double stroller for my almost 2 year old and newborn. I have a single Bob Revolution, but am just seeing the Baby Jogger Summit for the first time, and am very intrigued by the easy fold. Anyone like one of these over the other? I haven't been able to get to a store to try them out. Thanks.

    I have a single BOB and hopefully (if this IVF works) we will have 2u2 and I am in LOVE with the BJ Summit X3! I played with a double revolution and a single summit x3 (no double in store). The fold is SO much easier, the seat has 1" more height, sun canopy stays extended better than BOB, the suspension seems a little better, it has an adjustable handlebar, and the thing that has me sold is the locking front wheel. For the BOB you have to get in front of the stroller and switch the lock at the wheel. For the Summit x3, you switch it by the handlebar. The runaway strap is better on the Summit.

    The BOB has a better push but the Summit has some nice features like the better fold.  For me personally, I like the BOB better because it glides SO easily and I rarely fold the stroller anyways so that didn't matter to me.  The features on the Summit just weren't important enough to me to switch from the BOB push.
