Reviews for BOB SUS stroller
Just what we needed
Reviewer: SingleDad , Warren County, NJ

I started out with a jogging stroller from another company, after 1 trip in the woods I knew it would not last. I got the BOB SUS just a couple weeks ago and love it, and so does my 7 month old. It goes over rocks and stumps without a problem and feels solid, it doesn't rattle at all, and the shocks work well even with the lil 20 pounder in it. The canopy gives extevensive coverage, and the seat reclines well, my child does not slump. Overall I think this is a safe and well built solid stroller. I have primarily used it offroad and it has even surprised me with the ease it moves over the tough trails.

Fabulous

I couldn't decide between the Revolution and the SUS, but since the trails near our home go on and off pavement I decided on this because of shock absorption. I LOVE it. I also got the infant adapter as my baby is just one month old. She loves the stroller and I feel she is very safe in there. I don't find it hard to turn, I just lift the back wheels up when I swivel. This stroller is amazing, I can go over curbs without jostling her around. Some people might find it a little big for shopping, but it works okay if you need it for that purpose. Usually I stick her in a baby carrier if we're going shopping. I bought this for running and walking and it lives up to it's purpose and then some.

Good Stroller
Reviewer: Greg , Addison, IL

I should start with a disclaimer... this is the first jogging stroller we've owned. That said, I wouldn't mind this to be the only jogging stroller we'll own. I was a little worried about how jogging with a stroller would affect my training. I even planned on running with my wife again (who runs a bit slower than I do) to compensate for the extra weight of the stroller. Surprisingly, at just a little slower than my normal training pace, my heart rate is about the same as without the stroller. Granted, our little one is only 8 months and just about 20 lbs., but the stroller moves so well and is so smooth that I can hardly tell I'm pushing it. The included sun shield seems to do a pretty good job at keeping the sun off of our little one, but we run mostly on a shaded path, so the sun isn't that much of an issue anyway. B.O.B.'s customer service is fantastic as well. The stroller was delivered without one of the tracking screws. I contacted their customer service and had the tracking screw a few days later. Also, great job by JoggingStroller.com for getting the stroller (and subsequent rain guard) to us lightning quick!

Buy it-This is the one

I spent a lot of time comparing jogging strollers. We bought the BOB SUS and love it. You will not be disapointed at all. It tracks great, is easy to turn, compacts nicely, and it jogs and walks great.

easy to run hard to store

I really enjoy this jogging stroller. It is easy to run with and my son loves it. I wish it could be made smaller without taking the wheels off, but I would always tell people to buy this stroller

If ONLY....
Reviewer: Clarissa , NJ

If only the front wheel could be interchangeable with a swivel wheel, that would be AWESOME. I just bought this particular stroller (SUS) today and I LOVE IT, my baby is 4 months and I also bought the infant car seat adapter and it worked wonderfully, HOWEVER, I did manage to have a bit of a difficult time turning (there are minimal turns on the running path I took), but I was thinking it would be THE BEST OF THE BEST, if the front wheel could be interchangeable to a swivel when needed. THINK ABOUT IT B.O.B people, I would buy it :)
Are there any tips out there on how to turn it without stopping my pace running?? Oh and I read on another review that the foam handles was bothersome, I am going to buy some workout gloves so maybe that will help to get a better grip and not get blisters!

Overall great
Reviewer: Stephanie , Salt Lake City, UT

Overall a great jogging stroller. I rollerblade and run behind it and it has great maneuverability for a fixed front wheel, which I was originally concerned about, but decided to go with fixed because of the price difference. Plenty of clearance for leg movement. Shocks are great. Rear tire break is solid. The safety leash is a must. Two draw backs...Won't fit in my trunk without removing wheels (however, back tires are easy to take on and off) and second, the cable from the front break runs behind the handle bar and is a little annoying.

Excellent
Reviewer: Anonymous , Troy, NY

This is the second jogging stroller I've ordered from you and I couldn't be happier. The strollers are terrific and I couldn't believe how quickly they were delivered. I've already recommended your company to others. Keep up the good work.

Thanks very much Jean, really appreciate the kind words. We're not perfect, but we certainly try hard.

great on bumpy trails
Reviewer: Michelle , Thornwood, NY
Date: August 31, 2007
My husband and I love this stroller. We have used it since my son was 4 months old with the Britax car seat. Now he is 8 months and sits in the seat proper. He still isnt comfortable in the seat without a towel rolled to support his head. He sleeps in the stroller with no problem with the towel. We use the stroller for long walks along bumpy off road trails and the suspension is a great advantage to the other strollers we looked at for this purpose. Definitely happy we went with the fixed front wheel for these walks - it makes it easier to push over rocky terrain. We use a lighter weight stroller for errands as the BOB is a bit big to maneuver through shopping aisles.
