Reviews for BOB Revolution stroller

I love the BOB, BUT on my first outing, a 5 mile walk, I got flats on all the tires, stranding me and my baby! Bummer! Have invested about $40 for Slime, thorn tape, a patch kit, and a frame bike pump with a head that will fit the valves on the BOB tires, so am now hopefully thornproof! Haven't needed the patch kit and pump yet. I think BOB could make beefier tires that would be a little more thornproof (this was all on paved sidewalks!). Otherwise, the BOB is smooth, frictionless to push, beautifully maneuverable, and my baby seems to like it. We have a Chariot, also, but she doesn't like it unless we're going fast on a bike or skis--I think maybe she feels too boxed in and down low in the Chariot. I think the BOB lifts her up some and gives her a better view and more air circulation in the summer. We bought the Chariot for activity and a Combi folding stroller for "shorter" outings, but now with the BOB, the Combi will go away. I can't stand to push anything else! Great service from Joggingstroller.com, too.

Just a follow up of my July 16, 2007 review. After having the Bob for about a year, I'm happy to report that I like the Bob more than when I first reported. My original criticism about folding the Bob is a non-issue for me now since we just leave it unfolded most of the time. And since we live in manhattan, we rarely throw it in the trunk. Next, it is truly a jogger's stroller that is also an excellent all arounder. Strolling through subway grates, and uneven sidewalks is not a problem whatsoever (unlike our Maclaren). Even though the Bob has been around, it seems that it's growing in popularity, at least from my anecdotal observations in Central Park. No problems whatsoever doing a loop in the park with my son. He'll look at the horses, other runners, and then fall asleep. It is the best game in town. Bar none. And the best part is that we use the Bob when I'm not running too. We have logged many miles with the Bob. Still strolls like new. I admit that our "workhorse" stroller is the Maclaren Triumph to take our son to daycare via subway, as the Maclaren is lighter, smaller, and, our daycare frowns on the SUV type strollers. Finally, Bob's customer service is great. I emailed them after I noticed a leak in the front tire. Even though Bob people thought I ran over a sharp object causing a flat, which I disputed, they sent me a spare tube the next day. Their response was courteous and quick.

I got the Bob for my birthday. I researched several jogging strollers before I selected the Bob. I couldn't decided whether I wanted a "locked" front wheel or one that swivels. In the end, I was so glad I went with the "Bob". It is wonderful. It is so light and easy to manuver. The only concern that I have had so far is its size. It is quite large, but I haven't had to load it into my trunk yet, so no complaints yet. All in all, I couldn't be happier with my selection and I HIGHLY recommend it to anyone who is looking for a quality jogging stroller.

I purchased "BOB" a few months ago and have started to really enjoy it now (spring is here yea!) Which I am glad I did because I see it is on backorder. I got BOB in orange and brown and just love the colors. (Not to bright but more a burnt orange) The stroller is awsome. Super sturdy, easy to drive (it alomost drives itself) and my daughter who is 1 1/2 is super comfortable in it. I almost wish I had this stoller when she was born so I'm sure for the next one I'll get the infant seat attachment. My mother who uses it also says that this is the nicest stoller ever and totally worth the price. I also purchased the center console. The attatchement fits perfectly and is good for a cold covered drink. If you try to walk with coffee in it, I would not recommend. (they do not either) It spills easily and really is not ment for that. But if you want a place for your water I would get it. The assembly was a cinch. Just pop on the wheels and you are ready to go. Fold up is really easy however you have to manuver it so it does not unfold on you (it does not have a lock on it) But once you get the hang of it it's no big deal. A little on the heavy side but I believe it is that way because the sroller is really such good quality. I am thinking about getting the travel case because I do not want the airlines to ruin it. I really love walking around with BOB and look forward to taking a jog with it soon. All and all totaly worth the $$. Thanks "BOB"

My daughter just turned 1. We bought the Bugaboo Chameleon before she was born. I loved the car seat attachment, but the regular seat wasn't great. It is already too small for her. I bought the BOB upon the recommendation of my sister-in-law and I am over the moon. It is smoother than the Bugaboo and half the price. The seat is comfortable and roomy for her too. I LOVE, LOVE it. I have 4 children and believe me, I have had my share of strollers. Peg Perego, Maclaren, etc. The BOB puts them all to shame. Only one problem is the under carriage basket is way too small. The assembly was a piece of cake. Just put on the wheels and you are ready. I even emailed BOB because I wanted to be prepared about the assembly and they emailed me within 24 hours. Great customer service. Please take everyone's advice and buy this from the get go!!

After reading all of the great reviews, we decided to purchase this as our only stroller for now. We also got the carseat adapter so we could use it right away. I didn't want a travel system, since we are so active I figured this would suit our needs better. For short errands we just use one of those carseat rollers and when baby outgrows the carseat we will just get a lightweight stroller for when we dont want to take the Bob. My husband and I both jog so I knew we needed something very durable. I have been using it for walking since baby was 1 week old with the carseat, and even started jogging with it this week at 5 weeks. I have read some say not to jog with the carseat adapter, but I dont see why not. I can see the baby and she is very secure-just dont take it on rough terrain for now. Also, my postpartum jogging pace is very slow (11-12 min per mile) so she goes about as fast as if I were speedwalking anyways. My husband is faster than me, and he tried it out the other day and the baby was still fine. I definitely recommend this stroller and the carseat adapter if you want to use it right away. My only complaint is when you fold it it is hard to maneuver because it wont stay shut. I havent bought the console yet, but I did buy some stroller hooks and I just hook my water bottle on those for now.

I haven't had the baby yet, but I'm in love with my jogging stroller! I "borrowed" a friend's baby and took the Revolution for a short walk. It folds and unfolds easily, looks great, and is so easy to push! I'm 5'4" and my husband is 6'1" and it's a good height for either of us. I like how the tires come on and off just like my bikes. I have no trouble maneuvering it around my house as long as the front wheel isn't locked in place, and it fits through standard doors just fine. I can't wait to get back to running with it!

This is just a well designed jogger. Light, easy to maneuver, comfortable for the child, good storage underneath, and flexible with the front wheel lock/unlock. The only problems are no brakes for running down steep downhills and a sunshade that doesn't adjust/swivel to deal with late afternoon sun (like when I run every day after work). But I still wouldn't have anything else. It's a dream.
