Talk to me about BOB Strollers

[mcfelix]

I want to get a BOB, as I plan to get back into running after this baby arrives. I am not a hardcore runner - most of my runs would be 3 or 4 miles with a longer run once a week to train for another half marathon whenever I decide I am ready to that. My question is about the different BOBs - sport utility, ironman and revolution. Is it better to have the option of the turning front wheel versus the fixed? I know it needs to be fixed when you run but I also know I will be walking it from my car to the start of where I would run. I should mention this will not my primary stroller. Thanks for any feedback!

I love my Revolution and like being able to switch from swivel to fixed. I have other strollers too, but use my Bob the most.

Yes, all of this!

I have the Revolution SE and love it. Love the switch from swivel to fixed; easy to maneuver; lots of pockets for stuff.

Exactly. We have four strollers...one kid...don't ask... The only ones we needed were the Bob with the carseat attachment and our tiny 8lb MacLaren.

Thank you! I just ordered the revolution - sounds like the adjustable wheel is worth it.

You will not regret it. The Revolution is one of the best things I have ever bought for myself, ever. And I use it as my primary

We have the Duallie with a fixed wheel, but I can't rave about it enough. Everyone said it will be your best baby/kid purchase, but it really has been. DH is home with my two for the summer, and they use it multiple times a day for walks, going to the store, etc. Oh and I run with it too

I have a dualie Revolution, and I adore it. Use it every day. I def need the fixed and non-fixed options.

Ditto. We've been using it constantly for almost 2 years now.

I have both a single and a double BOB Ironman and love them both. I'd go with something that a swivel wheel option if I was looking for it to be my only stroller option but we use these strictly for running so the fixed wheel is perfect for that.
