Joovy Zoom 360 or Baby Jogger Summit XC stroller?

Friday, September 9th, 2011

I’ve finally narrowed it down to these two strollers after sending six others back! However, I’m still torn! These two are my only options since we must have an extremely large sunshade for my sun loathing daughter. The BOB is out of the question. I’m not a serious jogger, more of a power walker, but I do walk on some rough terrain so I need something solid and a swivel wheel. My 10 month old is very high sensory and everything has to be perfect for her to allow me to take her anywhere. So I’m looking for the maximum sunshade as well as a comfortable seat. I’ve had to send a few back because the seat was so darn hard and she couldn’t get comfortable. I have a Kolcraft Contours III I use with an extra sunshade now and she likes the seat, but even with the sunshade, it doesn’t protect her from the sun. So any suggestions would be greatly appreciated on these two models! Thanks!!

Wanting any advice/tips/helpful opinions on double strollers…3year old and 1year old…long walks, shopping.?

Wednesday, May 25th, 2011

What’s the best double stroller for me…I have a 3year old and 1year old…We use it for long walks through city, grass and fields, gravel, up and down curbs, shopping so must fit and manuver through tighter and more crowded areas and store isles.
I owned a BOB revolution single jogging 3 wheel stroller that i had to sell so i can buy a double.
I loved the Bob stroller but cannot afford the bob double. My price range is 200-300max. (will look online or even for used ones when I figure out which one is best for me.)
I dont own a car so my stroller is our only transportation. Must be able to stand all weather, snow. rain, mud, etc. I also need as much storage as possible where ever i can get it since I do go to the store alot and always try to jam any open space with my groceries. I like the 3 large wheels for all terain, I love the brakes that are just one easy lock bar you kick down simply with a tap of the foot.

Please any tips, advice. experience. anything will help me!

      How do I run in the rain/cold/snow with a stroller?

      Tuesday, October 19th, 2010

      Anyone have a Protect-a-Bub double cover? They look good, but the picture shows a stroller that looks like 2 umbrella strollers together.. not the 3 wheel double jogger that I would use. Any suggestions? Thanks!

      Best Jogging Stroller to buy?

      Sunday, August 22nd, 2010

      So i have a one year old and I really want to get a jogging stroller..I have a graco travel system and its so big and bulky and I absolutely can’t go on walks with him because its to big and I’ve tried my friends joggers and I like how smooth they are. Anyway, what are your opinions? Bobs, Tike Tech, InStep or BumbleRide? I definitely want one with a swivel wheel and one thats easy to put in my car without having to remove wheels or parts..also I want one that has cup holders and big space for my purse AND that i can eventually put another carseat in when i have another baby. THanks!!

      What should I look for in a used jogging stroller?

      Saturday, August 21st, 2010

      I’m going to check out a used Bob double jogging stroller. It is a sport utility BOB double stroller with non-swivel front wheel that is said to be in good condition. They want 0. Is this a good deal? What should I be looking for to check the condition when I go to look at it?

      Mommies, I asked this Q last night and was wondering if someone could give me a GOOD answer…?

      Monday, August 16th, 2010

      I’m getting a new stroller for Christmas but I can’t decide on the right one! When I asked this question yesterday the only answers I got were about how great "BOB"s are. Sorry, I’ve got better things to spend 0+ on.. Like rent and utilities and food and diapers…

      ANYWAY, I live in a tourist city in the mountains (minimal driving, plenty of sidewalk and trail walking) and fitting in my small car isn’t absolutely necessary. My son is on the large side (25 pounds at 6 months – always OFF the charts for weight AND height) and we walk a good bit everyday (or at least try to.. It’s been cold and we’ve been sick), close to 4 miles or more a day. We’re on a pretty tight budget but Santa has agreed to go up to about 0. I’ve narrowed my search down to three strollers and I really can’t decide between them. All three have mostly great reviews but all three also have some pretty bad reviews. Those three are:

      #1 – Jeep Overland Limited Jogging Stroller

      #2 – inSTEP Safari Swivel Wheel Stroller

      #3 – Jeep Liberty Limited All Terrain 3 Wheel Stroller

      http://www.toysrus.com/product/index.jsp?productId=3502257#showReviews

      *Have any of you Mommies owned any of these three and would you like to recommend one to me? Owned one and hated it?

      *I’m also up for some other suggestions so if you’ve owned a 3 wheel stroller and LOVED it and highly recommend it please let me know!

      Thanks Mommies! Y’all are always very helpful. :-)

      Need some help with jogging strollers?

      Saturday, August 14th, 2010

      I am looking for a jogging stroller. I’ve heard one with a locked wheel is best for running. But what about the ones that lock and swivel? I would like one of those. I am currently doing some research and have been looking on joggingstroller.com. One of their representatives told me the stroller I was looking at wasn’t for running since it had a swivel and lock wheel!! But doesn’t the Bob Revolution have a swivel and lock wheel? I’m kinda confused. The Bob Revolution is the stroller I want, but i am currently looking for one that has great reviews for half the price. Any suggestions are appreciated
