Lovin' my Revolution
I just got my 2007 Revolution and I absolutely love it. My 19 month old gave it his seal of approval when he refused to get out of it the first time he went for a ride. If he even sees it, he wants in it!
The main differences between the 2007 and the 2006 are:
1. Increased seat recline of up to 70 degrees (earlier versions only recline to 45 degrees)
2. Increased back support on the seat back
3. Additional padding added to the seat
Quite frankly, these improvements weren't a huge selling point for me. If my son was an infant, the increased seat recline might matter, but at his age he doesn't want to recline at all.
The sun canopy is the biggest I've ever seen on a stroller. In the past I've had to put a blanket over the canopy to try and shield the sun from my son's eyes, but this canopy solves that problem. It is huge!
As for maneuverability, the Revolution far surpasses any other stroller I've tried. It is a smooth, steady ride. I typically use the swivel feature, but the stroller is still great with the front wheel in the locked position.
The storage basket is fairly large for a jogger and is sufficient for the typical walk or jog. I did take this stroller to the mall today and, while it was incredibly easy to maneuver through the mall, the storage basket was not large enough for shopping and storing packages along the way.
It is very easy to fold and is fairly compact when it is folded, but it does not have a latching feature which makes picking it up a bit awkward. It's not a huge deal to me, though, since I usually leave it open and ready to go in our garage (thank God for 3-car garages!).
I really like the 5 point harness and my son doesn't mind being buckled into the seat. He seems very comfortable and snuggles right in as soon as I put him in. The "cup holders" inside the seat are nice, but he has a hard time getting his cups into them which tends to frustrate him. An older child may not have an issue with this, though.
The shock absorbers are really nice and work very well. We can "off road" in it and still have a nice smooth ride. If I hit an uneven area of pavement or branches/roots on the trail, it is barely noticeable.
Overall I am very happy with this stroller. And, more importantly, it got my son's seal of approval.
The best jogging, mall, travelling etc stroller!
Here is the summary of the reviews that I read on many websites and everyone seems to agree:
-"It looks great and I get tons of compliments."
- "it is as close as you can get to an all in one stroller!"
- it's a great jogging, mall, walking etc stroller
- it is not too big.
- but it is not too small (like a mall stroller that is usually is too light and good for a baby, but not very good and stable for a toddler).
- it folds up easy, but it doesn't stand up while folded which is ok if you have enough space in your garage or house to store it.
- it takes 2 steps to fold it and a little strength to unfold (you kind of have to throw it).
- The suspension makes the roughest terrain smooth.
- "We take it everywhere from outdoors to the mall. It's so smooth and turns on a dime. I recommend the beverage holder as well...it's really handy."
"Parents looking for a slightly lighter Revolution with a more compact fold (but less jogging potential) should check out the BOB Revolution 12" AW, with three 12" aluminum wheels instead of 16" rear wheels. If you have two kids, or like having plenty of extra room, take a peek at the two seater BOB Revolution Duallie double stroller, which is also car seat compatible."
Infant Car Seat Compatibility
# Fits Britax Companion
# Fits Graco Infant Safe Seat (Step 1)
# Fits Graco Snugride
# Fits Peg Perego Primo Viaggio
Car seat recommendations: Graco because it fits in almost every stroller/car seat adapter (Combi for example doesn't fit in BOB stroller). Graco SnugRide is the most recommended because it's light (usually about 7 lbs off the base) and it's not big and will fit into the shopping cart also. Graco SafeSeat is good too but it's heavier and much bigger (longer). Yes, SafeSeat model fits larger babies and you probably can use it for longer than SnugRide, but would you want to carry a 30 pound baby (+ 9 lbs car seat) around? Probably not. So I suggest use SnugRide till baby is 22 lbs (your baby should be about 7-12 months old, each baby is different) and then switch to a convertible or toddler seat which hold a baby from 22 lbs up to about 60 lbs. You can put your 6 months old baby directly into the stroller without the car seat. Snuzzler will make your baby very comfortable and happy too :)
Changes to the BOB Revolution for 2007:
*New colors
*Increased seat recline to 70 degrees off vertical
*More seat padding
Recommended extras (all have no less than 4.5 star reviews):
* infant car seat adapter (look for one with tray)
* Snuzzler (Kiddopotamus & Co Snuzzler Complete Head And Body Support For Any Seat)
* handlebar console
* weather shield revolution (if it rains or snows often when you have your baby).
* If you plan to travel often also get the "BOB Stroller Travel Bag Black"
"Bottom Line: The BOB Revolution strikes the ideal balance between a walking stroller and a jogging stroller. It weighs a bit more and has less storage than most travel system strollers, but good luck taking one of them out for a jog - or even over some dirt trails. With the Revolution, you can manage any terrain with total ease, and it has a one-of-a-kind adjustable tracking system for jogging. Altogether, you have one of the best all-purpose strollers ever produced."
Wonderful Stroller
We have the 2004 BOB and we wished then that our Car seat would have fit on it, now they have that feature. This is the best stroller I have ever used jogging or walking in the mall. The swivel front wheel is a must. Anyone that says its lacking in storage has to remember that it is a jogging stroller and not a mall stroller. Well worth the price tag.
Best Stroller Ever
This stroller is amazing. It is exceptionally well designed and works like a champ. We got rid of our other stroller and use this exclusively. It can zip in and out of shopping aisles and we use it to run 5 miles everyday. It collapses in less than 5 seconds and be put together in a single flick of the wrist and fits perfectly in our sedan trunk. The optional cup holder is great and so is the diaper bag. I find reasons to take the kid out in the stroller!
Couldn't be happier
We have had our "BOB" for almost 4 months, and absolutely love it. It assembled easily (if you call removing the packing material and popping the wheels on "assembly"), folds easily, rolls smoothly, turns effortlessly, and most importantly, our 19-month-old is comfortable and securely strapped in. We also got the handlebar console at the same time, and highly recommend that too.
The Luxury SUV of strollers
Granted it does not fold up completely with the infant car seat adapter, but it's worth the extra effort to tote this stroller around if you want to be prepared to take your baby for a stroll almost any place you choose running or walking. It glides over all types of terrain and turns great. It really is the luxury SUV of strollers. Our baby Arwen has been riding in this stroller since leaving the hospital. We love it.
