Love this stroller!
Reviewer: Anonymous , Maui, Hawaii

Did my homework on jogging strollers and ended up getting the SUS Deluxe, I love it and so does my son! He was a preemie starting at only 2lbs but now at 5 months he weighs 8.5lbs and just loves going for a run with me, I did have to modify the seat a bit in order to accomodate his small body, I put a air pillow at the base of the seat then put a kiddopotamus snuzzler in the seat for total body support. My son loves it and always takes a nap during our run. We live on the beach on Maui so being able to take it on the sand was important to me, I've tried it a couple of times and it does the job, a bit sluggish but still able to run on the sand. The only reason I didn't give this a 5 star is that I wish the handle bar was adjustable, I'm 5'1

a sturdy stroller

Overall I am pretty pleased with my purchase of the SUS. I go on dirt trails and sand and some rocks when I take our dog walking. The SUS seems to roll right over any terrain. I did think that the shocks would take more of the bumpiness out of the ride, maybe they just need to be broken in. My baby seems comfy, she is 6 months,, however, I am certainly glad I purchased the snuzzler, otherwise it might not be so comfy. I am disappointed in the sun shade. We live in San Diego, and wish this had a ratcheting sunshade.. her legs get quite a bit of sun, and when the sun is lower, it doesn't provide shade for her face... I did purchase the sunshade netting accessory and that works well for providing more shade on her legs and face. I feel that it is pretty easy to fold up, but am disappointed with the

Great for Ranch Life

This stroller will go anywhere our sheep can go. The shocks allow us to take it through our pastures. My son bumps along and many times will nap over the rough terrain. It has also been great at livestock shows and sales.
I'am so pleased with how this stroller has held up. We have had it for a year and used it everyday sometimes several hours a day and it still works beautifully. I have found it hard to fold sometimes, but we rarley fold it and it stays outside where there is lots of dirt and dust. It also gets covered in mud and manure quite offen but it hoses of well and the fabric is holding up great.
I have a small car and the wheels come off easily so it fits in my trunk.
I also have used the stroller in the airport. It is sturdy enough to throw a large car seat on top and wheel it around.
This stroller is worth every penny.
I bought the snuzler for it (It was OK) but I found I prefer a regular sheep skin I just cut holes in where the seat straps need to come through.

Great Stroller!

I received my SUS last week along with the infant seat adapter. It was very easy to put together. All that needed to be put onto the stroller were the 3 wheels. It took about 10 minutes, max. The infant seat adapter took a little more time which was fine with me since it supports the weight of my 7 week old and seat! It is VERY sturdy and my baby has fallen asleep on my runs so far!!
There is plenty of storage room. I have taken keys, phone, blanket, water and a jacket so far with room to spare.
The brake works well and the parking brake (as silly as this is) is very easy to set. All you do is push a botton right on the brake handle and it's set! This has been great for quick shoe tying, checking on your child, or covering for a sudden rainfall.
The only drawback is that accessories, such as a weather cover (absolute necessity here in NW Washington) and console, do not come standard. They must be purchased separately.
I would highly recommend this stroller to anyone!

Very pleased with joggingstroller.com and the BOB

Although I have not yet gone jogging with my BOB, I wanted to enter a prelimanary review. First of all, I have been very pleased with joggingstroller.com. I ordered my BOB on a Sunday evening and it arrived on Wednesday. My husband oferred to put it togther for me but since I am going to be the one using it, I decided I should be the one to really understand the stroller and its assembly. I am not at all handy!!! My husband was convinced that I would give up on the task of getting it put together but I triumphed! The directions were great. I also ordered the handlebar console as well as the infant seat adapter...all which I put together by myself. It was a bit tedious and took about an hour total - but if I can do it anyone can. The tracking was a little off but the new fine tune tracking worked beautifully. I have taken it on a walk and was very impressed. I can't wait to get it out there for a run!
The sun canopy provides as little or as much coverage as you need. A very important feature for me. I do not want my baby to end up with sunburn! I did alot of research before purchasing the BOB (I've been reading about strollers for months) and the BOB seems to have the best canopy.
The quickness in which the stroller folds was also imprtant to me as I will be putting it in the car almost daily. The BOB takes all of 2 seconds to fold up. It couldn't be easier! The BOB fits in my small SUV without removing the tires, but if you need to remove them, they are easily removed in no time.
I am particulary fond of the BMX style polymer wheels; since I am going to be taking it in and out of the car frequently, I didn't want to have to worry about bending spokes.
The child safety harness is very easy to use and adjust.
I highly recommend the infant seat adapter if you have an infant. I am able to move my infant seat from my car to the stroller without waking my sleeping baby!
A great purchase and well worth the money.

Best stroller and great expirence
Reviewer: Anonymous , Ann Arbor, MI

I can not say enough good things about this stroller and my experience with joggingstroller.com.
I think the stroller is of the best quality for my 6 month old and is by far the best stroller I have come across in my search.
Joggingstroller.com was an even better experience; the shipping was lightning fast (I got the stroller in 2 days), free in my case, and I was more than impressed with the business end of the transaction. The site adequately described this phenomenal stroller and was in contact with me via e-mail during my entire ordering and shipping process.
A five star rating does not do this experience nor the stroller justice.

Just received my BOB. It looks sturdy and well built and took all of 5 minutes to put together. I can't wait to get it out on the road. Everybody at the office is raving about it.

AWSOME
Reviewer: Anonymous , Shawnee National Forest

AWSOME is the one word that comes to mind when describing the downright durability of this stroller! My family took a cross country trip this year and we used the BOB every day. Being 8 months pregnant at the time, I had no problems negotiating Yellowstone trails. Picture rugged, washed out single track ascending 3000 feet, a large 18 month old in the BOB and a heavily pregnant mom having the time of her life. Hilly gravel roads were, likewise, not a problem. Sheer downhills were easily controlled with the braking system. This rugged stroller really does it for those of us who spurn the beaten path. Parents, put on your trail runners or pull on your hiking boots....this stroller is ready to go! And by the way, it does a really decent job on the road, too.
