Reviews for BOB Revolution stroller

I LOVE my BOB!!!! I wish I would have bought this stroller 8 months ago when my son was born! The reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 is because of the locking issue. WHy doesn't it lock when you fold it? I almost didn't buy it because of that. BUT I figure in time I will get down to where I can fold and throw it in the back of my SUV w/out issue. Other than the no lock when closed this stroller is a dream to push, very rugged, cool looking and has a HUGE sun shade! LOVE LOVE LOVE my BOB! I bought the Mesa and it's so cool looking.

I purchased this stroller 7 months ago. My daughter is now 6 months old, and it is by far the best baby purchase I made. This is the only stroller I use. I use it to run, go on walks, and everyday shopping (we bought the car seat adaptor). If you are looking to only buy one stroller, this is it. Even my mom, who was really skeptical about using a jogging stroller for everyday use, now brags about it to everyone we see (whether we know them or not). It turns on a dime, and is amazingly easy to steer. It is also a great jogging stroller. I love this stroller!!

This is the best thing ive ever got....i lost 15 pounds jogging with my bob stroller...no regrets.

I too spent a lot of time researching strollers. I would not trade my BOB for anything, but there are a few things left to be desired. The Good: SUPER easy to push one-handed.. really. I can push my 25lb child with one hand and walk the dog with the other. Although it is big I can manuver well in tighter spaces since it turns so easily. I don't think I could break the thing if I tried; it is very well made. I live at the beach and I can push it through even soft sand with a little effort and the front wheel locked. I find it great to jog with since it pushes along so easily. The Bad: All the extras you really have to buy if you want this to be an everyday stroller. The handlebar console, the warm-fuzzy, snack tray- for a $400 jogging stroller you would think they would include a spot to throw your water bottle! The seat only sits So far up. Even fully 'upright' the seat makes your child slouch a little and can be frustrating for them not to be completely sitting upright. The Ugly: Trying to use that darn strap to close the stroller once it is folded down. I have figured out how to pick it up once I have it folded to get in in the back of my car without using it, but it is a total pain that it dosent automatically snap shut. The bottom line, though is that I wouldn't trade it for anything. I know that with it in my trunk I can take my little girl practically anywhere and get around just fine. Gravel, sand, uneven pavement and grass are all things that a little mall walker just don't handle well.

Thank you for the personalized, excellent service in purchasing a JoggingStroller for our children and infant grandson in Alaska. Your service and the quality of the stroller went far beyond our expectations!

If you use your stroller for mainly walking around home and sometimes at the mall etc THIS is the stroller for you! It pushes itself (really) and has an AMAZING hood that completely shades baby (very important in summer when it's so hot). We got the brown/blue one and it's such a pretty color combo and not so common as the navy's and orange ones. Get the cupholder caddy bob makes, fits perfect and you can store your keys, drink, phone etc in there. It is pretty lightweight too for what it is. Sorry to be shallow, but you see a lot of them around here in so. cal and i love being trendy like that too :) Just today at the spectrum i must have seen 4 bobs in 20 mins. I choose this over a baby jogger as they push so much better and just feel like such better quality; it is almost impossible to damage a bob!

The BOB Revolution is our only stroller. PROS: We love it's superior maneuverability, durability and comfort during use (my husband and I are of average height). One CON: We use this stroller for everything (again, our only stroller!), and we just popped the front tire by simply 'driving' the stroller on park grounds. According to the bike shop that fixed it, the tube was covered in thorns. That seems a little wimpy for a supposedly rugged and all-terrain stroller. We are hoping this was a fluke, and we won't continue to have this type of issue because, so far, we have loved everything else about the BOB!

We received the Bob Revolution as a gift when our son was born. I was very excited to get it so that William and I could go for runs once he was old enough. I have found it to be a great stroller for walks, not runs. I live in Chicago, and the sidewalks absolutely crush this thing. After a short run (about 2 blocks), I stopped because the cracks in the sidewalk almost toppled the stroller over on several occasions, but I don't think that any stroller would be able to handle the cracks. I then took it to my parents' house in the suburbs, where I could run on a nice, flat, paved trail. While I eliminated the cracks in the sidewalk problem, I found that I kept kicking the back of the stroller. I am 6'0", run about 6:30 miles, and have a relatively long stride. I would need some sort of an extension bar on any stroller to prevent from kicking it, and the Bob didn't cut it. Looking back, I think my expectations were too high for any stroller, and that I'm really not going to be able to run how I want to with any type of stroller. He gets to stay at home with Mom when I run, and we all go for walks later. Aside from not being able to run, I do really like the stroller. We have taken him in it golfing, for long walks, on trails, over light snow, and it has been great. $389 great? I don't know, but I do like the stroller, and with the swivel wheel, it is very maneuverable. Travelling with it is a lost cause though. Even folded down, it's still very big and doesn't fit very well in our trunk. And after reading other reviews, I am not going to risk taking it on an airplane as that seems to have disastrous consequences. Bottom line, great for walks and slow jogs, but I don't think it (or any other stroller for that matter) will cut it for hard runs.
