The Revolution is a well built stroller that can take the abuse children can bring. Whether jogging, walking on the beach or off-roading, this stroller handles it all with ease.

all I can say is WOW!

So after weeks of research on many web sites, joggingstroller.com by far has the most comprehensive and honest reviews though. I was between the Dreamer and the BOB revolution and I finally decided to by the BOB Revolution in Mesa Orange. I received the stroller and accessories 3 days after I ordered it and I live in Florida so i am impressed! The orange color is much nicer in person. I put it together and took it out for a spin and I am not disappointed! It is everything everyone says it is and more! The directions are a little confusing, once I figured out what they meant it was easy enough to install. I am still going to call BOB's customer service just to double check that I did it right though. I can't run with my son just yet as he is only 5 month's old so we just went for a quick walk but I can tell that this stroller is going to run like a dream. The handling is superb and it is so light! Plus it stays right on track with the wheel locked and unlocked it swivels without any resistance. The seat padding looks hard in the pictures but it is actually a lot softer than it looks. I wish I would have gotten this stroller from the beginning! Our old stroller is going to Grandmas's and it will stay there! BOB is all we need!

Excellent

I got this as a substitute for my fixed wheel jogger because my wrists were hurting after runs. Now I warm up and cool down in swivel mode and lock the wheel only when I'm actually running. I tried several fixed wheel joggers and all of them hurt my wrists unless I was really running at top speed.
This stroller works great as a substitute for my fixed wheel jogger. I just lock the wheel forward when jogging and it tracks straight. I don't feel any wiggle in the front wheel and the 16 inch rear wheels make it feel really light to push.
Then when I am walking home from my jog and I have to navigate through crowded sidewalks, I just engage the swivel wheel and don't have and difficulty steering.
The little details are great, I like the huge canopy with large window, and the very compact fold (smallest I've seen in a stroller I can jog with).
There are a few small details I would change. I wish they offered a version with the aluminum wheels like the SUS d'Dux. I also wish there were some zippered or velcro pockets on the back or in the basket. It would also be great if it had a locking clip so it locked when folded. Finally, I wish there were more colors. The red cost more but the navy and orange both are way too dark if you plan on walking at night. We have some areas here without sidewalks and I really would have preferred red or another bright color.
The only other thing I'd change is that the seat sometimes is a little slouchy. Check to make sure your little one will like this one before buying, some might prefer to have more upright back support.

It's true - all the good things that have been said are true! Easy assembly, awesome performance, comfort for the little passenger - all true. Worth the cost.

Huge Fan
Reviewer: Ashley Daly , New York

I researched a ton of strollers before making this purchase as we already have another pricey stroller that we love. However, my husband loves to run and since there is no time for me to go the gym I thought I too could benefit from a jogging stroller. Let me just say that it arrived 3 days after I purchased it-- hooray!!! My husband ran with our 6 month old son in a benefit 3 mile race the day after it arrived and loved it. It is so lite and easy to push-- it makes walking, strolling, shopping fun; it actually pulls you. I gave my in-laws the other stroller as this one is fantastic. It reclines for my son's naps and has ample storage for all of our stuff. I am in love with this site and the stroller. Cheers to a stroller and a website getting it right on all accounts.

Best Purchase
Reviewer: C Kritzman , Atlanta, Ga
Date: August 04, 2007
My wife and I purchased the BOB Revolution and, at the price point we paid for it, I expect it to be a great stroller. And it is. I couldn't be happier. It arrived quickly, was easy to assemble, works perfectly (and comfortably for our child) and is adaptable to any situation or environment. But what impressed me the most was the customer service - and we didn't even speak with anyone. Just the mere fact that they were certain to give us timely updates throughout the ordering and shipping process blew me away. They care about the customer and it shows throughout everything they do.

Exactly What I Wanted. . .
Reviewer: MTM , Swarthmore, PA
Date: July 28, 2007
This jogging stroller was 100% on the money. I wanted something that would be easy to walk and jog with. After researching the different models on this website, the BOB Revolution was absolutely the best combo: jogging stroller/all terrain stroller for the money. I even chatted with a helpful customer service representative when I was deciding between the BOB and the Mountain Buggy. I also took the suggestion from someone in the reviews and bought the Snuzzler to help my then 3 month old son feel more comfortable in the stroller and keep his head from wobbling. I highly recommend it if you start using the stroller when your child is an infant (3 months or so). Great purchase and great help from joggingstroller.com in choosing the right stroller for me.

Awesome!
Reviewer: Mark Nicolettti , Los Angeles, CA

I spent days trying to figure out which jogging stroller to buy. And after calling a bunch of distributors, checking out a bunch of strollers in local stores and reading what Consumer Reports had to say, I chose the Revolution by BOB. And it is as AWESOME as everyone said. I purchased the Chocolate/Pink model and not only is it a good looking stroller that I am proud to push ANYWHERE I go, my daughter loves the ride, its easy to use, easy to put in the car, etc... etc... etc... Long story short - I love it!!! And I would buy it all over again! Oh, and the locking swivel wheel is fantastic. It is so easy to maneuver around town and then lock it in place and its a jogging stroller that beats all others. Thanks Joggingstroller.com for the recommendation (although, you sent me the wrong color pedometer - but that's another story).
