I own a Sport Phil and Ted's stroller and wasn't very pleased with their cup holder option. I saw Bob's and decided to give it a try. I am happy to say that it has worked great. Phil and Ted's stroller has several handle angle options and although at some angles it is difficult to maneuver a water bottle in and out, overall it works wonderfully. Also, because Bob's cup holder is Velcro, you can adjust the straps to make the cup holder level no matter what angle you have the handlebar at.

I bought this console for my Phil and Ted's E3 Stroller and love it! It's given me the extra space I neeed (for drinks, cell phone, snacks) and is not bulky in any way. I'm able to leave it on when I fold the stroller, and it stays in place! Highly recommend for jogging strollers!

I purchased this console for my phil and teds e3 and it fits perfectly. I finally have a spot for everything like keys, sippy cups, bottles, digi camera that I take everywhere! My only prob is that the holes for the bottles could be a bit bigger, not all water bottles fit in there, than again I tend to carry the really big ones. I like that it is all the very durable fabric vs a hard plastic console and washes up nice, after a coffee incident, which I now know is not the best thing to take along for a bumpy stroll.

I ordered this for my Phil and Ted Dash after reading reviews on Amazon saying it worked well for them. I could not be happier with this add on! It holds two bottles and has a compartment for keys, phone ect... I dont have to remove it for folding so this is PERFECT!!! I highly recc this!

I have a BOB Revolution 12" stroller, and it was quickly apparent that some sort of stroller console was necessary. I picked up the BOB console, but then found the JL Childress Cups N Cool, so I picked it up also to check it out. I was attracted to the cooler feature since I currently have to bring a separate cooler bag for my baby's milk bottles. Here is my comparison between the two.

Construction: Winner - BOB Console

The BOB console is better made and has a nicer finish than the Cups N Cool console. The zipper glides more smoothly with double zippers that include bright yellow zipper pulls. The cup holders have nicely hidden seams. The Cups N Cool console zippers have wimpy zipper pulls (only one per zipper), and tend to get stuck when the zipper goes in curves of the openings. The velcro straps of the BOB console are reinforced with canvas that is stitched throughout its whole length. The velcro straps of the Cups N Cool have nylon that is of lesser quality (the weave isn't as tight) and I have concerns that it would tear if decent weight was placed in the console. This is a problem considering the cooler section would tend to get heavy.

Features: Winner - Cups N Cool Console

Two zippered pockets, one that is a cooler and one that can double as a second cup holder make the Cups N Cool much more versatile and useful than the BOB console. The cooler pocket easily fits an ice pack and two 9oz Avent bottles. If using the cooler pocket as a cooler, the 2nd zippered pocket becomes very useful as a place for keys and cell phone. I typically don't use both cup holders in the BOB console for water and would prefer a 2nd zippered pocket. That 2nd pocket can be used as a cup holder if necessary, which makes the Cups N Cool much more versatile. One thing to note is that the bottom of the BOB cup holders is a fine mesh which allows condensation to drip away, while the Cups N Cool isn't, and pools condensation at the bottom.

Value: Winner - Cups N Cool Console

The BOB console costs more $$, not much, but given the additional and versatile features, I think the Cups N Cool conosle is a better choice if you don't need two cup holders all the time, and don't weigh it down too much. The insulated pocket is a great asset, especially for me since I frequently walk with my baby and always carry a spare bottle in case I need to feed him before I make it home. It's also great given the BOB Revolution's small basket - the Cups N Cool offers more storage; not much, but the right kind of storage.

I gave this 4 stars because I really like the two zippered pockets and the cooler function of the Cups N Cool console. If you don't need those features, then the BOB stroller deserves 5 stars because it is solid.

Following the advice of many reviewers here on Amazon we purchased this for our P&T stroller and it fits wonderfully and does exactly what we need it to. Very satisfied with it. Nothing else needs to be said. :)

Works just as expected, simple install, love the deep cup holder pockets & the BOB can still be folded down without a problem. It's a must have.

I purchased this mainly for my wife who loves her coffee. It fits securely on the handle bars of the Bob Stroller. It is made of very durable nylon/dupont cordura type material (webbing like material).

The holder contains a zip pocket in the center for a cell phone, wallet, or other items of similar size. I believe I have put my cell phone, keys, and wallet in the pocket with room to spare.

There is a warning to not put too hot of a liquid container in the cup holders. I imagine this is assuming the worst situation in which the cup holder would melt and/or the liquid would spill onto the child. We have had no problems with a travel type coffee mug that has a closable/lockable lid. An open type cup (no lid) with a hot beverage is just asking for trouble.

This console fit snugly onto my Phil & Ted's
E3 and I like how the deep cupholders pockets
keep my drinks firmly in place. Just enough room
in the compartment for my keys and wallet.

First off BOB should have this automatically come with any of the strollers especially after how much they charge. The item itself is excellent and a must have for cell phones, drinks, keys, and/or a credit card! Can't live without it!!
