4.0 out of 5 stars
A great jogger, February 22, 2009
I love this jogging stroller. However, I did give it only 4 stars for a few reasons. It has no hand break, it has no locking mechanism for when it is folded down, and it does NOT hold up to 75 lbs as stated in the online ad. It's maximum weight, according to the papers included with it, is only 50 lbs. I picked this stroller because of the fact that it's weight limit was advertised as being 75 lbs. I am not at all happy with the misrepresentation and plan to contact Amazon and BabyAge concerning this. I know it may sound crazy to need a stroller for a child even up to 50 lbs but I live on a military base and we do alot of walking and running. I don't see the point in wasting gas to drive anywhere on base when everything that I need to get to is w/in a mile of where I live. He'll be starting preschool soon and it will be nice to be able to throw him in the stroller to take him to school. With all of that being said my almost 4 year old son and I love the stroller. It is plenty big enough for him to sit in it comfortably. It manuvers very easily and the handle bar is fully adjustable which is great because I am only 5'2" and my hubby is 6'3" and we both can use it comfortably. It does take up a lot of room whether it is folded up or not. We have a Suburban and it takes up more than half of the back end of it when folded down. I don't care though because I needed something large enough to hold my son comfortably whether we are walking or running. It is chilly here right now and the built in weather shield has been great to help keep the cold air and wind off of him. Bottom line, if you are looking for a stroller for a preschool aged child that's going to last you through at least kindergarten this is the one for you! I tried other jogging strollers at BabiesRus and when he got into them he was cramped and didn't have any head room, even though the weight limit was 50 lbs on them as well. I have not used the locking feature for the wheel yet. I did try it to make sure it worked when I first got the stroller but when I run or walk I like the wheel to move where I need it to go so I choose not to lock it. I have even gone over rough terrain with it unlocked and it does just fine. Over all, of my 3 boys and all the strollers I've owned this is my favorite!

Dangerous for jogging, October 3, 2009
We loved this stroller when we first got it and used it for walking and light jogging. But then, the break lever started to descend when my husband was in the process of jogging. As a result of this he would trip on the descended lever and the breaks would activate causing the stroller to flip over. After the first time it happened, I called the company and told them about the situation (our child was safely secured and now hurt.) They told me to tighten the breaks. I must say though the customer service was not very helpful and had a bad attitude in general. We followed the instructions and my husband went jogging again. Again the break lever descended in the process of the run and my husband tripped over it again. Once again, the jogger flipped. So, we now only use it for walking and we bought a BOB for running. My husband is much happier and our child is safe. BE CAREFUL!!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars
love it!, March 29, 2009
i LOVE this product!!!! i was soooooooooo impressed with how easy it was to maneuver, how light it was to push (despite being kind of heavy and bulky when folded up), how easily it runs over ALL terrains (including grass), and how it makes the choppy sidewalk as if it was a newly paved road! My daughter sits very comfortably in it without any problems, the sun visor provides excellent protection for her fair skin, and I love the all weather protection (rain cover) which I havent had to use yet. I can't say enough great things about this stroller! I ordered it for the purpose of going on high speed walks and jogs around the neighborhood and to the park, and it serves wonderfully for that purpose. It is a tad bigger than a regular stroller when folded up, plus taking the tires on and off to make it smaller is an easy task to perform but a pain if you're getting on and off trams or trains and having to fold it up and open it back up again. Otherwise, it serves very well as a jogging stroller.
