Worth the $$$$

I really like this stroller. I researched strollers for a few months before buying this one and I am glad I waited and researched them because there are a lot of other models that are cheeper but will not give you what the Bob Revolution gives you. I also asked a lot of people that I saw on the street or at parks if they were using double joggers and what they thought. The Bob Revolution had the best reviews by far! However everyone warned me about how spendy they were, and how they thought it was worth the large amount of money spent on it. After buying it I agreed. It is worth the money spent. I love that the wheel is both swiveled and locked. I also love how smooth it rides. My sons love it and want to sit in it even when we are not going anywhere. It is rather large, but does fit though doorways. I did not think it was that heavy, but I did wish that it folded more compact, and it barley fits in the back of our car (although I knew when I bought it that it would be large even when folded). I highly recommend this stroller if you are an avid walker on any tarain, or a jogger/runner. I take walks everyday and this is the best stroller/investment that my family has ever made in reguards to childrens products. This is because it was built well, and I know it will last though all our children, now and in the future. I wish you the best of luck in finding the right stroller for you. I don't think you will be disipointed with the Bob Revolution.

Best ever!

I love my Bob Double. It is by far the easiest double to get through tight spaces. Because the front end is narrow, you can really steer it well through doorways and such. Both my 2 year old and 6 month old like the stroller, which was not the case with our Graco tandem. The dual sun shade is amazing and keeps my 6 month old covered from the sun. I purchased the drink holder attachment and I find it very useful. I wish Bob made a carrying bag for the double.

This is the best stroller I have ever used! I like that it can be fixed or swivel wheel in the front. This baby just glides and feels lighter than my single regular stroller I have. I bought the drink accessory holder which is awesome, although a bit overpriced. I love how far the sun shades come done to cover the boys. I have a 7 mo old and I daycare a 5 mo old. I never hear a complaint from either one and they always fall asleep. I haven't had a problem with the straps rubbing on their necks. It does come with a soft strap cover to help prevent the rubbing. My son is tall for his age and I like that this seat will grow with him. Other joggers have more limitations in the height adjustment.

The best stroller ever!!

I was a little scared ordering such an expensive stroller, but when it arrived, those fears went out the door. It was a breeze to put together, nothing to it really, just unwrap and stick on the wheels! I took my kids for a ride right away and they both seemed so comfortable! Thanks to the helpful people at joggingstroller.com who helped me pick the stroller that's perfect for our family!

Sorry but its a dud!
Reviewer: Anonymous , San Diego, CA

I am still trying to find out what all the fuss is with this stroller. I bought it with high hopes in using it for all my running around, but it has seriously given me nothing but headaches. The stroller comes with a harness that rubs on my kids necks which really bothers them, and the stroller is pretty heavy considering how small it is, and the straps already have broken on the basket. unfortunately is just isn't what I was looking for in a double stroller.
Comments from The Staff:
Wow, I'm really surprised to hear that - this is probably one of our most popular strollers. Regarding the straps - sounds like a manufacturer defect. And regarding the harness - you might be able to move the straps either up or down so that they aren't rubbing your childs neck anymore. We can assist you with getting a new basket, or start the return process if this stroller just isn't what you're looking for. Let us know what we can do to help!

Love this stroller!

I haven't even had my second baby yet, and I love this stroller. I've taken my son out with one of his friends in it, and even though it's bigger and heavier than the single stroller I have, it's easier to push. The harnesses are really easy to use and super adjustable, and the sun shades are great. I only wish the basket underneath were a little bigger.

Love my BOB
Reviewer: Anonymous , salt lake city , utah

I mainly use my BOB double stroller for walking and trips around town. It glides great and is a breeze to push. My complaints about it are; No brake on the handlebar for slowing down when I'm going down a hill, the seat doesn't sit up completly straight, and the under storage is hard to use when the kids are in the stoller. But having said this, I still love my stroller and it's been our best purchase. I also love the swivel wheel. You can easily turn one handed in any situation.
Comments from The Staff:
Hi there! Unfortunately, the hand brakes aren't available on swivel wheel strollers. Hand brakes lock the front wheels, and you can't lock a front swivel wheel with a hand brake - only a front stationery wheel can be locked with a hand brake.

Careful when running!
Reviewer: Running Mom , Charlotte, NC

I bought my Bob Revolution Duallie last April and have been absolutely thrilled with it. One warning...the instruction manual says to lock the swivel wheel in place when running with the stroller. It is truly imperative to follow that instruction. While running with my 12 month old, the wheel turned sideways and forced the stroller to stop abruptly. The stroller flipped, I fell on top of both the baby and the stroller. Good news, I had the baby fastened in properly and the carrier frame took the majority of the impact. Other than a minor bump, the baby was fine. More good news, both joggingstroller.com and the BOB manufacturer were wonderful to work with. We had the stroller evaluated to determine how the accident happened and repaired as quickly as possible. I am stilled glad I chose this one over any other.

Love this stroller!

After much research, my husband surprised me with this stroller for my birthday. At the time we had a 1 month old and an 18 month old and a black lab puppy that needed daily walks! I was worried to use a jogging stroller while my baby was so young (recommended age is 6-8weeks old) but I used a car seat headrest pillow for support and it worked out great. When I received the stroller, my husband was out of town, so I had to put it together by myself and it was so easy! When we took it out for our first walk, the stroller rode so smooth and with such ease, I felt like the stroller was pushing itself! Iâ??m 5â??5â?? and my husband is 6â??2â?? and the height is comfortable for both of us. We really put it to the test a month later when we took my husbandâ??s 7 year old twins to Mammoth Cave National Park. We went exploring in the woods and my husband pushed this stroller up and down hills, through rocky trails and around sharp switchbacks. The shocks made the ride so comfortable that our baby slept most of the time! The best thing is the separate sun shades; I can have my baby completely blocked from the sun while my toddler can still see everything around him. I don't use this stroller to go shopping at the mall so I don't have to put it in and out of our trunk, but I was able to squeeze it into our Honda Accord trunk by simply taking off the front tire. We've had this stroller for nearly 4 months and we go on walks almost daily. Our puppy is now big and strong but with the sturdiness of this stroller, I don't have to worry about her pulling and tugging. This stroller is built to last and is definitely worth every penny! My husband also purchased the cup holder accessory and it is a perfect spot and within easy reach for my cell phone, house keys and sippy cups!
