BOB Gear - Revolution Pro Stroller

The absolute second my baby was big enough for a jogging stroller (didn’t need the flat bassinet) I switched from my Vista and never looked back. Inflatable bike-tire style wheels are sooooo much better on ice and snow and in parks and stuff. I went with the BOB Revolution, but the Thule ones are also great. You can’t run with a baby in a jogger until they have good head control, but as long as it has the appropriate recline and straps, you can use it to walk earlier than that.

We did the Nuna Trvl LX with Nuna Urbn as our combo travel system and it’s been really nice, overall a great purchase and I would recommend. It has the largest wheels and best suspension you’ll find in any travel stroller, quick one hand fold, lightweight. But it is still a gate check at the airport. It’s not perfect, you definitely make compromises with any travel stroller, but I have a tiny trunk and it fits well and has been nice for quick errands. That said - we have a lot of other strollers too for other purposes! - Bob Revolution jogger is our go-to for bumpy terrain and trails, gravel, etc. - I bought the Doona for international travel, we took our 5 month old to Switzerland. She ended up really liking to take walks in it, but I HATED it for regular purposes and quickly sold it because I found it to be a huge PITA. - we also have a very old (cheap FB marketplace purchase) Bugaboo Frog that we got for the bassinet for walks when she was little. It was really nice to have and we did use it quite a bit, but I also babywear a lot for walks when they’re small. I do not think a travel stroller can do it all. I think a travel stroller & jogger is a nice combo, or if you truly only want one stroller, you should probably consider the Cruz or similar.

The BOB Revolution is a great jogger and pushes through anything (if you’re into trails or live where there’s heavy snow)!

A BOB Revolution is what we had. Worked awesome. Started with the car seat adapter. Probably logged 8,000 miles between our two kids on it. There are plenty of other “pure running” strollers but this one worked great for running and was useful for walking around town/stores as well.

Here’s what you do. Get a BOB revolution jogging stroller. Air tires = very smooth ride. City streets, whatever - it is the best. Get a britax car seat and adapter for your newborn as this car seat fits in the stroller with the seat reclined using said adapter. When baby is a toddler, switch to the stroller seat. This school year we stopped using ours as my youngest is now in kindergarten and wanted to walk to school with her sisters from day one, but the Bob stroller is literally the same one that we used with my oldest as a baby and she is now 10.

I’d highly, highly recommend a BOB jogging stroller. It doesn’t matter if you never jog. The tires provide a smooth ride and this city has infinite bumps in the road/sidewalk. Certain car seats are compatible with a simple adapter and then when baby is big enough to sit the stroller seat is perfect and lasts for years.

Pottery Barn Kids, Baby Gap, Monica & Andy, Little Moony, Target (the larger stores like 86th St.) For a stroller get a convertible car seat one which means you get say a BOB jogging stroller with a compatible car seat and attachment (one rod) that means your baby can go in the car seat which can also lock into a base in your vehicle and then when the baby outgrows that you can use the regular seat in the BOB stroller for a 2+ year old.

Jogging strollers are terrible for travel: sorry. That said, BoBs are great jogging strollers with fantastic shocls/suspension system. Baby Jogger City Mini GT2 is not made for jogging,.but people have used it for such. And its fantastic in general (friends have used it from newborn to age 4+) But Jogger stroller and travel do not mix well. Either get a Jogger or get an actual compact travel stroller 

Thule. Bob. Uppababy Ridge. On my second kid and been through my fair share of strollers living in a city that isn't always quick to clear sidewalks after a snowstorm (and we walk to daycare + school daily). Bob was a dream. Loved it. Uppababy Ridge was fantastic in snow but heavy. We used the Bob up until my kid was 4.5. The Ridge was not meant for older kids. Haven't tried the Thule (besides moving friends strollers to see ) but overall hear good things about it in Winters.

I know you're not a fan of the jogger styles but I'll tell you this (as a 6ft woman): I resisted the City Jogger Mini GT despite it being recommended by all my mom friends. Went with Graco (the WORST). Then BoB (amazing suspension, used it up until my first turned 4)). Then bought an Uppababy. And everytime i used my friends City Jogger I had buyers remorse for NOT getting it. My husband pushed for the Uppababy and even HE has buyers remorse and wishes we went with the city Jogger Mini GT2 (latest model) All my friends have used it till their kids hit kindergarten. Was great in both Summer and Winter.

Bob stroller! Has a wonderful suspension system and feels lighter than some of the other ones. Ive used it on uncleared city sidewalks in the winter on the daily (where its basically one giant hill or small mounds of snow after another) and it was heavensent lol

This. Had a Graco with my first. Walked daily. HATED it. Even now when I hear a squeaky stroller I just know it's a Graco.  And they always got stuck in the snow. Although their joggers are slightly better quality so OP might kuck out with this one. I had the travel system and then a jogger. Then a BoB. Now an Uppababy Ridge. Honestly BoB was best, followed by Uppababy 

I'll also add look into the Bob stroller: I had a few strollers with a few kids and honestly the suspension on the Bob is a DREAM. Amazing for trails. And lightweight compared to other bigger strollers (I miss it). I heard good things about Thule as well but can't speak from experience 

Loved loved loved the suspension on BoB strollers. I switched to Uppababy Ridge and honestly miss the Bob for the suspension system on snowbanks etc, completely smooth sailing 

I live in Montreal and have the Uppababy Ridge. Don't love it as its giant haha...but.... freaking amazing in the snow. We walk everyday since birth in all weather. Through sidewalks not cleared etc and its been great. Honestly it has been a lifesaver in Winter  The BoB stroller was also amazing but for when bebe is older. I heard good things about the Thule too.

Love the Bob! Amazing stroller 

Have you ever tried the BOB? My god, amazing suspension and SO LIGHT (compared to Uppababy). I had a second hand BoB and couldn't get over how light it felt to roll through snowy streets etc and the suspension was amazing on bumpy sidewalks (live in a city with shitty construction lol). My husband just prefers the look of Uppababy (we have the Ridge, heavy AF) but even he grudgingly agreed that the BoB Stroller was pretty amazing even if it didn't look as nice haha (but still is heavy to bring up condo stairs, just lighter than UB)

You can also get an adapter for the Bob jogger so you can make it a travel system. That’s what I have, so we got a used Bob for $250 cad and a new Britax car seat with the adaptor to clip it on.

I got a 2019 used BOB stroller for $250 cad and you can get an adaptor so different car seats can clip in. We bought a new Britax car seat and it clips in super nice. I’m not a runner but lots of walking and on trails so that’s why we got a jogger. It maneuvers so nice too and the front wheel can be fixed if we want it from swivelling. I don’t know how heavy it is but it folds up easy enough and I don’t find it too heavy. We also have a large SUV so I’m not worried about space.

Ich kann dir zu diesen Beiden Kinderwagen nichts sagen, allerdings den folgenden Rat geben: Die Zeit, die dein Kind in der Babywane liegen kann ist sehr kurz, nämlich bis es sich dreht und aktiver wird. Das kann bei manchen Babys schon nach 6 Monaten sein.  Daher empfehle ich, lieber nach einem leichten Geländegängigen Buggy oder Jogger zu schauen, die sich im Ganzen Zusammenklappen lassen. Das kann zwar auch unser ABC Design Kinderwagen, ist dann aber sehr schwer beim einladen. Wir konnten gerade im Urlaub kostenlos einen Britax BOB mit 3 Rädern ausleihen. Sehr leicht, sehr wendig und auch leichtere Wanderwege, die angeblich nicht Kinderwagengeeignet wären, waren damit kein Problem.

Same, bought a super expensive stroller, but ended up using a hand me down bob that was so beat up, I had no problem leaving it outside of the museum, library, etc. No one was going to steal that thing.

I got a used Vista2 and it’s a tank. We use it around the neighborhood, but I never want to put it in the car. We found a used Minu2 (when my son was two months old and I realized I was never going to put my Vista in the car for errands) and it’s my day to day. So easy to collapse and put in the trunk - works with the vista accessories (like the car seat carrier). If we have a second, I’m buying the double Minu brand new and never looking back. We did get a BOB as well and we love it for neighborhood walks and we do take it in the car as it also folds easily. It is great for football games, baseball games, picnics, events with grass terrain, etc. So - if I had to pick - Bob and Minu as they serve two different functions.

The Minu mostly stays in the trunk of my car and it is compatible with any uppababy car seat. You can also use it with the uppababy bassinet. Once your infant outgrows the car seat, it has a baby/toddler chair. It also fits in a plane overhead. So we will use it for years. We have a Bob revolution. It is usually in our garage for walks, but it’s folds down easily to put in my husband’s Toyota RAV4. It is his primary stroller and we use it for rougher terrain. I wouldn’t be opposed to buying both new. But I did buy both used on Facebook marketplace. Both Minu and Bob are built well, so they are a good used option as there wasn’t a lot of wear and tear. I think I probably paid $350 for both. The uppababy car seat I did buy new, and that with the adapters needed for the car seat did make it more of a splurge. My MIL purchases that as our baby gift. My son grew very fast and, of course, was out of the infant car seat by 7-8 months. So we use his toddler car seat and transfer him to the BOB or Minu now.
