BOB Revolution Duallie SE stroller (2012) - Reviews

Comments:

Family has purchased 4 Bob strollers, 2 single and 2 duallie. Ease of handling for walking or running is great especially handling dogs at the same time. I have no complaints about the Revolution strollers and enjoy using them.

This stroller is great. I have a 40 pound 3 year old and a 15 pound 3 month old and I can push them around with only one hand. It fits through all the doors. I wish the basket was a little bigger, but that's because I put my groceries it purchases in the bottom. I also wish it had a temperature gauge. But this strolller is great. It's like 40 pounds and takes up a lot of trunk space in my SUV, but the providing my kids with a smooth safe comfortable ride makes this stroller totally worth it. No regrets.

We previously had a less rugged stroller (like Graco, Combi, etc.) - this BOB Duallie blows that stroller out of the water! We can take this stroller ANYWHERE...it can handle any terrain, can go down high steps (like off a deck edge, etc.), and fits thru standard doorways with ease. Folds up easily and quickly, fits in the back of our Subaru Forester with room for other items, light enough for mom to pick up and load in/out of car. Gives me (mom) the freedom to take the twins out on my own. You don't have to be a runner or off-road adventurer to appreciate this stroller (though it does great for running/jogging). I look forward to using it in the winter months and seeing how it handles the snow/slush. I cannot speak to whether this is appropriate for newborns as we did not have from day one...I suspect would be fine with the infant car seat clip-in accessory. Would recommend to anyone and would definitely purchase again.

I am an avid runner (20+ miles/week). This is my third jogging stroller. I had 2 Keltys, a single and double. The Bob is a wonderful stroller. Easy to push and run with. The infant car seat adapter is a must if you want to start running before baby is 4mos old. The only downer is that it does not fold up compactly. I have a minivan and 4 kids so the wheels must come off in order for it to fit. I would recommend the cup holder accessory as well. This is a lot of money to spend on a stroller but it is well worth it.

My wife and I did a lot of research for a side-by-side stroller for our one-year-old twins. Her top criteria were: a lockable swivel front wheel (to switch among pavement, jogging, or light trail hiking); wheels and tires sized for those uses; relative ease of folding and loading into a car; and most important, the ability to fit through a standard 36" wide commercial door, which has a clear opening of 32" when the door is open. (This is the standard for any ADA-compliant public path, entry, or exit- which means almost everything built since 1991.) The twins' top criteria were: comfortable independently-adjustable seats, large independent sun canopies, and comfortable buckles and straps. (We know this because they Facebooked us an IM from their iPhone For Infants App. Pretty good for 13 months old, eh?)FUNCTION: After a brief stint with a Baby Trend that met all the above criteria except for the door clearance (a half inch was all it took to cause trouble), we bought the BOB Revolution Duallie and have been thrilled with it. My wife can take the kids anywhere she wants while providing the kids a safe comfortable ride. The babies' harnesses are well-padded, easy to secure, and easy to adjust once they are in their seats. The stroller is effortlessly maneuverable and easy to push. During an all-day trip to the zoo, my father-in-law kindly pushed the stroller for hours, repeatedly remarking at how easy it was to do so. The bottom basket and mesh seat back pockets hold enough cargo that my wife can walk the kids to our neighborhood market for a short grocery list, instead of driving. The basket clearance allows you to get in a gallon of milk.BULK: No stroller in this class is truly compact; by their nature they are bulky, because their unique capabilities come from big tires and a frame to carry two kids side-by-side. It's just part of the deal. But the BOB does a good job of being lightweight, easy to deploy and fold back up, and manageable to load and unload into the…

I love my new stroller! It rides smoothly, pushes easily, and is a comfy ride for my 3 year old and 2 month old. It is large when folded and not the easiest thing to get in and out of my vehicle, but I still wouldn't trade for anything else. While the price is steep, it's a worthy investment as I plan to use it for years.

LOVE the Bob! Cannot believe it is sooooo easy to run pushing this stroller. I am a 'jog around the neighborhood' type of gal (get out frequently for 3 or 4 miles- but am not a particularly strong runner), and have just started to run again after my pregnancy hiatus. I thought I would just be walking with the boys, but since the BOB stroller is so easy to push and handle, I am jogging with it! It pushes like a dream and my 2 month old and 21 month old both love it. The sun shades are excellent, and the handlebar console is worth every penny.

Comments:

The BOB is surprisingly easy to push and manuever even with a 3 yr old and 6 mon old in it. Both my kids seem to have plenty of room and my 3 yr old loves having her own sunshade. The only negative is the size especially how large it is even when folded up...which makes it hard to store. But overall it is a terrific stroller...I would definitely buy again!

When I found we were expecting twins, I researched double strollers for weeks, reading reviews & test-driving them at stores (not easy to find many). Based upon the reviews I read & the maneuverability of the single BOB revolution, I decided on the duallie. Being kind of pricey, I thought it would be worth the $$ if I could find a stroller that would last our twins from infancy to youth. This is THE ONE. Being that our babies were born a month early, I just put "Snuzzlers" in each seat and was able to start walking them at 2 weeks old (on sidewalks only though, no trails until recently due to them not being able to hold their heads up well).They're 11 weeks now and I just love this stroller! I can take it on sand, over grass, on trails - anywhere. And the shocks seem to do a great job absorbing the bumpy ride. The only con I can see is that it's relatively large & kind of heavy to lift into my trunk. I drive an Acura TSX and it just barely fits into my trunk after I remove the wheels, but I guess that's to be expected with a double jogger. Other than that no complaints!

The BOB has been great. I had narrowed down my search to the Baby Jogger City Elite Double 2009 and the BOB. While the BJ is a great stroller too, the BOB was just better for what we needed. Price: I got a great deal at PeppyParents.com! It was also lower than the BJ price without the sale price. Handling: The larger rear wheels, the shocks and overall construction, etc. were just superior to the BJ in my opinion. I was a bit concerned about the non-adjusting handle on the BOB, but it has not been an issue at all and I believe it adds to the sturdiness of the stroller. Also, if you even want to consider jogging, the BOB Duallie is the only double stroller I found that will allow for that. While I am not planning on doing any major jogging, I wanted the option. Love the large canopies too. It's what I really missed on my Mountain Buggy Urban Single. The things I saw as benefits of the BJ (slightly flatter recline; slightly narrower, shorter and lighter) ended up being not worth the trade off in handling and price of the BOB. You can't go wrong with a BOB.

We have several strollers as do many of you and kept buying others so as not to spend the money on a BOB. But how I wish I had my money back to put towards this stroller. I thought we were going to use this just for walks but I find myself using it for just about everywhere. It fits through all average door ways, you think it is not going to fit and sure enough it does! This stroller is a dream it turns on a dime and is so light weight to push even with 2 big kids in it. Fits with plenty of room to grow my tall 3.5 year old and 9 month old.

We bought the single bob revolution with our first daughter and found it absolutely invaluable. So with when our second came along we had to buy the double. For anyone who is even moderately active this is a must have. Not to mention that it folds up compact enough to fit in most car trunks.

Comments:

I have been researching a double stroller since I found out I was pregnant with my second. I have always heard good things about the Bob. I also was strongly considering the Phil and Teds. What sold me on the Bob was the fact that my main use would be walks. My toddler doesn't like to be in a stroller for shopping, etc. So, I knew I would only use the double for outdoor walking and places like the zoo, botanical gardens, etc. The Phil and Teds is excellent for getting in tight spaces, but it has very limited sunshade. The Bob has excellent sunshade, infant carseat capability, and is easy to maneuver. I really like it so far and am very happy with my choice!
