BOB Ironman Sport Utility Stroller

"My daughter can easily and conviniently bring her daughter anywhere with this stroller"

"This is a great jog stroller. We use it at least four times a week and our little girl loves it. She has been riding in it since she was about three months old and she absolutely loves it. When she knows it is time to go run and she gets very excited.



The harness system is better than the harness system on the baby jogger products. We have a baby jogger bike trailer we use all the time (I would highly recommend it as well) and the harness system is well built in it but the BOB harness system fits smaller children better and it is easier to adjust as they grow. Also, the BOB jog stroller has places for water bottles in the child's seat where some of the other jog strollers only have a mesh pocket to put everything in.



The suspension is great on the BOB. My child has no problem going to sleep during our runs and the stroller must be some what comfortable because we always run for 40-80 minutes and my child never fusses while she is in there.



The handle bar has enough cushioning on it and it helps absorb sweat from your hands while running.



The pull down awning is sufficient to keep the sun off your child just about regardless where the sun is. If you are running into the sun right at sunrise or sunset there might be a little sun that would catch them in the face but the rest of the day they would be fine.



It also has a storage compartment on the bottom. This may not sound like that big of a deal but we have a little dog that makes every jog with us and she loves this compartment because this is where she rides. She has plenty of room and can stick her head out and enjoy the run as well. This may not be what you use this compartment for but it is great to store sweat shirts or a towel or something along those lines for after the run.



We just found out we are having another baby so we will be selling our single BOB Ironman and buying a double BOB Ironman stroller. If I can jog 80 minutes pushing two kids and the dog, I really will feel like an Irongirl!"

"Ironman Stroller - added the handlebar bottle holder and Infant Carrier assembly



We chose this jogging stroller for many reasons after much research. The best features: Yellow with reflective accents are easily seen by oncoming vehicles, making me and my precious passenger highly visible. Very light and tracks well, doesn't pull left or right. Very smooth ride. Reclines way back for a tired baby. Collapses easily for trips to more scenic running routes. Infant Carrier attachment,worked with our Chicco KeyFit Infant Carrier (even though it's not on the 'recommended' list) Slides right in and the safety straps included keep it tight.



One negative: Once the baby is big enough to be strapped in without the Infant Carrier, the cup holder (included) can be attached. It's a little high for our little guy to reach anything. It's more of a place for him to grab with his toes than an effective drink and snack holder. He shouldn't be eating while we're at race pace anyways, so no big deal.



Our little passenger loves going for our runs together. Maybe it's the freedom of the great outdoors, the wind in his face, the scenery passing by or just the hum of the road beneath the wheels. He doesn't fuss much and my long runs can last two hours or more. He often naps along the way. I expect to run a thousand miles with this stroller. Built to run, built to last."

"This stroller is absolutely great for running. It is the only way I was able to train for my marathon this year and being able to include my daughter in the process. I started running with her when she was 6 weeks, with the assistance of the infant carrier attachment bar that is sold separately, and my pediatrician's ok. I also purchased the weather shield, which allowed us train in cold/damp/windy conditions. The warm fuzzy has also extended my outdoor training season. This stroller is fabulous for running/outdoors, and it fits in the trunk of my car along side my "indoor" stroller, which is required because this stroller isn't the easiest to take to the mall, but it isn't meant to be."

"This stroller is GREAT! We read a lot of reviews on jogging strollers because both my husband and I run marathons and wanted something that was going to withstand our rigorous training schedules. The BOB has really been great for us! It is super lightweight and easy to maneuver even when running with the baby and the dog.



I have read complaints about the size of the basket, but lets face it. If you are a serious runner and want the best jogging stroller for running, you aren't going to be toting around a bunch of stuff in the basket. It can hold the essentials like an extra diaper and some water and snacks.



The only minor change I think they should make (and may have with this year's model) is to make the reclining seat a little more adjustable, there isn't really an in between option, it is either up or down. But most of the time that is okay.



If you are an avid runner, I highly recommend this stroller, it is well worth the investment!"

"We got this from my family for the birth of my daughter. The doctor said not to use it until my daughter could sit up well (6 months). I'm a hardcore runner so I did a lot of research on these. I wanted one that had a locked front wheel and that my husband did not "kick" when he ran behind it (he is very tall, I am not!). This stroller is great. Easy to put together. We got some accessories such as the snuzzler that keeps baby comfy during winter runs, and the wind shield. Its easy to push and has a strap to hold onto when you want to let it roll ahead of you without holding on.



Its expensive but worth it. I have tried SEVERAL running strollers. This by far is the best.



The only thing is it is kind of hard to turn corners but since it has a locking front wheel, I kind of expected that. Its not made to be an everyday stroller. The other down-fall is that you cannot put a newborn like other models since it does not recline that much.



Highly recommend.

Folds up nicely to go in trunk."

"This is my favorite item and something that I could not live without. Wonderful for runners or walkers. I have used many joggers and this is the best. Is easy to manuever while running and will go in any direction while running/walking as long as you apply a little pressure on the handlebars in the direction you want it to go. Very smooth ride as well. This is the cadillac of baby joggers. I got the car seat adapter which is great and a must have as well. At six weeks postpartum we were out walking/running. The adapter is very secure and my baby fits beautifuly and very comfortably. This is a must have especially for those of you that are serious runners. Much better then the original baby jogger brand."

"I love my BOB and so does my son. If you are committed to jogging/running, then this is the stroller for you. I looked at numerous options, and decided on this stroller. It is a little pricey, but when I think that I will be using it for the next 3 (or more) years, the cost is reasonable (considering the gym membership is 75/month). My son is comfortable and pushing him is (relatively) easy. I would definitely recommend this."

"This jogger is designed for the serious runner. Its light weight makes pushing it a breeze and the fixed front wheel is a must have for running. The child seat sits up over the rear wheels, making the front end easy to pick up for effortless steering, and the rear wheels have suspension for the child's comfort. The large canopy provides ample shade for your child. Even the leash is designed for running -- it's attached to the bottom of the stroller to prevent tipping if (god forbid) the stroller should start to roll away. I was concerned that the lack of an adjustable handlebar would be a problem for me, but even at 5'1" I find that the height is perfectly comfortable while jogging."

"I LOVE this stroller!! Before I got pregnant, I was running 6-10 miles a day. Now, that I have my 5 month old daughter, I am training for a marathon to help me lose my baby weight. This stroller is awesome!!



The stroller is light weight and easy to run with!! It takes about 30 seconds to get use to running while pushing something!! The only issue I had with the stroller was the tires. Living in New Mexico, we have a lot of goat heads, and on my first run I popped 2 of the 3 tires! :( However, I was able to get it fixed really easily and had something put in the tires to keep the goat-heads from popping it again! I am not sure what it was called, but any bike shop down here carries it!



Also, my daughter loves the stroller too. It provides a very smooth ride for her!! I started putting her in this stroller when she was just over 3 months (she could hold her head up really well before I put her in it). She rides in the stroller very well!



I would recommend this stroller to everyone!!"
