Product Description
BOB 12-Inch Aluminum Wheel Stroller in Chocolate/Coffee
We have 3 kids and have gone through many high end strollers but this one by far is the favorite. It is light and easy to maneuver even with one arm.
My Husband is 6’1″ and he can walk straight without kicking his feet into the wheels or the back of the stroller.
Stroller is pretty light about 21pds. It is perhaps wider by about 6″ from normal stroller like Peg Perego or Maclaren…etc. It folds flat not umbrella like.
It is capable of holding kids up to 70pds. and my 2 year old loves it. There are shock absorbers all through out for a smooth ride or a fun bouncy one if you want to entertain the little ones.
I like this one the best because you can lock the front wheel for the jog or unlock for easy maneuvering in the store.
It is made very well. We got all the accesories too..the fuzzy for comfort, the handle bar cup holder, the rain cover, the travel bag which was a bit pricey.

This stroller is terribly uncomfortable for my 1 year old daughter. It has been great with the car seat adapter but now I realize how the lack of padding and the design of the seat for the child is a MAJOR defect. Unfortunately BOB does not see this as a defect so I am stuck with this stroller. I bought a Graco cheap stroller and my daugher is much more comfortable so I use it for everything except the beach.
We use the BOB only for hiking and to drive in snow or on a sandy beach. But my daugher is very uncomfortable riding it.

So far so good. I purchased this stroller based on many reviews given it by moms I know actively using this model of stroller. I found it very easy to put together(did it myself). I have not had the chance to use it yet because my baby is due in March. I will update my review once I have had my baby. Though I will say that the BOB does have the best sized canopy out of any stroller I have seen.

My husband and I go for walks nearly every day so this stroller is perfect for us. It can withstand A LOT of use. I have to complain about the basket underneath. It doesn’t hold much and won’t even hold my purse. We have the handle bar console to hold keys phones wallets and water bottles but I have to leave my purse in the car. Other than that it is great. It even fits through the airport security scanners if folded (duh) and flipped upside down.

I bought the 12 inch all aluminum wheel Bob. It has been less than 1 month and the back wheel is already squeaking like an old stroller. I called the manufacturer and they told me to lubricate the wheel. I asked why an expensive stroller like this would already be making noise and they told me maybe weather conditions. Well the stroller is stored inside and has never been in the rain or harsh weather. My 8 month old hates the seat because it is uncomfortable and a piece of the reflector on the top has already torn off. I chose Bob because I thought it was top of the line but it has just turned out to be a huge disappointment. There is no clip to keep it closed when trying to put it in my trunk so often it would open up as I attempted to store it in the trunk of my VW. After 3 days of trying to figure out how to collapse and keep BOB closed so it could be stored in the trunk, my back was killing me. There is also very little room in the storage basket below and I have not found a bag that I can attach that fits snug and does not flop around and hit my baby in the head since the only thing separating the seat is a piece of material. There is also nothing to make the seat more comfortable so baby has to slouch. Yes it is light weight but this is only a good feature if you do not plan on taking it in and out of the trunk on a daily basis. I expected better for a $400 stroller when I paid a little over one month ago now the price has dropped by $40, even more disappointing.
