Thule - Spring

Are the tires properly inflated? My single Thule and my double BOB both are significantly harder to push when the tires are even a little deflated. Any particular reason the stroller was listing? Road/path slant? Grip orientation? Thule has a nice adjuster for the front wheel on slanted roads and paths that I take advantage of in my sidewalk-less area.

Bobs and Thules are super popular where I live because they’re good for most terrain and jogging, and people use them as everyday strollers. So that’s my plan, which a car seat adapter for when it’s needed in early days.

I live in a city and the stroller is my child’s primary form of transportation on a daily basis, and we bought the Thule Spring based on the Wirecutter reviews (used it with a chicco keyfit 30 until she was big enough to sit up in the stroller itself at around six months old). It has a true one-handed fold and works well in a crowded city environment. Different people have different needs when it comes to what stroller is right for them. The reviews on Wirecutter were really helpful for me in terms of figuring out what features are important to me, like a true one handed fold.

I just know they had a sale around Memorial Day. My stroller is a Thule Spring and I’ve been getting their marketing emails since I bought a snack tray for it recently. I remember they emailed me about a sale for Memorial Day. I don’t know if they tend to have other big sales throughout the year.

I think it really depends on your lifestyle and what you’re looking for, what kind of car seat you have, etc. I love my stroller but you might want something different. The resource that helped me think about what features I wanted in a stroller was the series of articles on Wirecutter recommending different strollers for different types of purposes. I decided I wanted a three wheeled stroller that isn’t tiny but also isn’t super huge for navigating narrow city sidewalks, that works with our car seat with an adapter, and has a true one handed fold. The one handed fold was really important to me. The Thule Spring checks those boxes for me and we still use it every day at 18 months old. She could sit up in it without the car seat from about 6 months old. We never got a bassinet attachment but next time I probably will.

Got a Thule because we run with baby and it handles off roading really well. Worth the investment.

Agree with everyone about jogging strollers!!!! We first got the uppababy Cruz which we do love but in the snow (we live in Calgary) you get so stuck it’s so hard. So we got the Thule because we go on lots of walks and now walk our baby to daycare so it gets used twice daily. Cruz stays in the car and is used for outings like appointments, mall grocery etc. but Thule gets used for walks. We have the urban glide - and it is still sooo big. I hate taking it into stores so it’s really an outdoor stroller for us. So imo it’s not a good everyday stroller but it’s amazing for winter and trails. Also look on marketplace, lots of people selling jogging strollers. Also I’ve heard people do not like the vista as a double stroller and also you never know if you do have a second kid whether your first will be at an age where they even still want to be in a stroller. So for us it was worth the gamble to just get the Cruz and if we need then get a double later on.

We bought the Thule Spring. It has car seat attachments you can purchase separately and then when old enough they can be forward facing. We’re pretty active so a three wheeled stroller worked well for us. Bonus is that it’s not super heavy and easy to fold! I looked at BOBs but couldn’t lift them myself. We’re currently using ours with our 3+ old and it’s practically still new!

Chicco bravo KeyFit the infant car seat clicks right into it. It's a tad heavy and the basket underneath is a good size. It's good for running errands and around town. It also comes with cupholders for parents and the little one when they're ready to sit in the seat. It also reclines so they can lay down and take a nap. We were also given a hand me down Thule. That one is light and is good for parks and trails because it has shocks and actual tires so you can go through grass and even sand. There is a separate bar/contraption you can buy to hold the Chicco infant car seat. The basket underneath is on the small side. We also had to buy a cupholder thing for it because the model wr have doesn't come with it . They're both great!

I have a Thule! I’ve always loved it. Took it out for a run recently and noticed it was lilting to the left for some reason. I had locked the front wheel backward without realizing lol. Not sure if that’s possible on a bob but double check!

I live in a rural area and have to take my stroller on a lot of gravel roads so I am obsessed with the Thule! Super quality and the wheels make it a very smooth ride. But I got it used from offer up.

We got a Thule Ultra Glide 3 and a Thule Spring only because I get a pro deal with them for ski patrol. It was a solid choice

We try to avoid them in the Spring. Tends to wake the little guy up. The suspension in the Spring is just the cushion of the wheels
