Brandon J. Vargas (Lawton, OK)
Nice stroller! The only problem I'm having with it is the front wheel. ??? It gets stuck and doesn't want to rotate into the forward rolling position. Other than that it rides smooth, is comfortable for my 8 month old and is easy to assemble.
 does not work right November 19, 2008
shelly (Indiana)
the product does not turn right for a jogging stroller. very disappointed in the way it handles. It is very sturdy, but would not recommened it for jogging
AWFUL PRODUCT!! must not have been baby tested October 24, 2008
Big Momma (NC, USA)
After 5 minutes with this stroller I realized what I need... and what it's missing. It makes me wonder if they even gave this to parents to test. After a month of having this stroller I hate it. My baby looks so uncomfortable in it!! It has no padding. The sides of the stroller where her head could rest is a hard metal bump! DO NOT BUY THIS STROLLER> I tried to change the number of stars I gave it but AMAZON won't let me! It's awful!!
Cons:
No viewer in the "shade" to see baby while you're running. I had to run to the side of the stroller several times to check on her. - To fix this I cut a hole in the top where i wanted it and afixed a clear vinyl from a craft store with some adhesive velcro. Problem solved.
The "shade" itself was worthless. Instep has made much better in the past to keep sun out, now they just want you to buy the bigger one seperate. Which I did and it's massive!
No tether
Does not recline very far- strollers that recline all the way double for changing tables for me!! This is a great feature if you can find a stroller that does this. This one does not and I can't think of any way to modify this!
Underbasket won't hold big 15 items... for the 15 items or less trip to the grocery store. My graco did.
Seat back is not very padded, baby looks uncomforable. I'm going to jimmy rig some kind of padding for her little sleepy head. I ended up buying a snugli thing that fits in 5 point harness strollers. But now she's too big for that !! once again, i hate my stroller.
The seat does not lock in position so kiddos lean forward and rock the stroller during a temper tantrum.
No padding on the sides... so she can't kick-it to the side and nap like in her Graco.
The bug net is poor quality and doesn't fit snuggly over the stroller like you'd think. My baby just likes to grab at it and put it in her mouth. I Trashed it!
Button for locking and unlocking swivel wheel is right above the wheel... not on the handle bars like some strollers offer so you can't easily adjust for changing terains (Baby Trend has the feature on the handle bar) Plus, my wheel would stick when I put it in swivel mode. A little WD40 fixed that right up!
There should be a pocket on the back of the seat for storage.
Pros:
2 cup holders for mom and dad!
Very light for a jogging stroller. I litterally folded it with one hand and picked it up and put it in my SUV without having to bend over. Great design there.
Plus it automatically locks when you fold it which saves you from the flip open problem most jogging strollers have. Which is also great for airplane travel when checking the stroller plane side.
Simple touch maneuverability when the wheel is fixed and on swivel (once I lubed it). Narrow/high handle bar allows great control. (I'm 5'2" and was very comfortable jogging and controlling my dog)
Swivel wheel did not work! October 15, 2008
Allison Eastman (Seattle)
I had the double of this same jogger and loves it. Thats why when I needed a single I bought the same model. The swivel wheel does not work. I have tried a couple times and it wont turn while jogging. I am looking to return. Otherwise it is a great item. However that was my number one need in a jogger.
Great! October 14, 2008
Jeremy J. Strecker
This stroller is great! I was looking for a jogger with a swivel wheel for my 5 month old. It can hold up to 75 pounds which is perfect for my 6 year old too! It folds easily and fits nicely in the trunk (sedan). Very easy to put together and comes with a netting for bugs. I highly recommend this stroller!
