Hi! I've been using my Baby Jogger brand single jogger since 2000, and it still works absolutely perfectly. It has gone through 3 kids and thousands of miles, and I still use it all the time. The newer versions are even better, with the easy-fold function and probably lots of other perks. I've tried a couple of other brands that I didn't like as much, so my vote would be for the Baby Jogger!

My husband bought me the Jeep stroller and it's great, I've used it lots for running and it's great for taking on the beach, I'm very happy with it.

I recieved a jogging stroller as a gift at my baby shower. The only thing I didn't like about it was the wheels didn't turn left or right, so running straight was fine but turning a corner was hard. I don't know if thats how they make all of them, but I would look for one that the front wheel can turn.

I've tried the Jeep and it's terrible. It's so heavy and the front wheel doesn't move so it's incredibly hard to turn. My friend has the BOB Revolution and she swears by it. It's light and turns with no effort. I have another friend who sells the Dreamer Design as well as some other name brands but insists the Dreamer is far superior. The BOB and Dreamer are expensive, around $350 but if you are a runner you may want to spend the money. If you spend half that on something like a Jeep like my friend did and hate the jogger you'll never use it. So my advice is, if you just want a jogger to walk with then don't spend the money on something expensive. If you're like myself and run and rollerblade then invest in a BOB or Dreamer Design.

i bought an " in-step" jogging stroller that the front wheel will either lock to go straight or unlock so it will swivel. i would take it jogging everyday. because the front wheel swivels it makes it easy to turn in the stores. i've had it for three years now, i bought it when i was pregnant with my three yr old and have still used it with my 18 month old. i bought it at burlington and it was about $20 bucks less there than in the other stores. hope that helps. good luck...

Hi O.,

If you are using it just for jogging or skating then the one we got from Target for $100 is ok, but if you want if for more, you will probably want one that the front wheel turns or else it is really hard to manuver. Also, the one we have does not have a bar or anything to go infront of child, so you can't give your kid a drink or snacks. The great thing about the jog strollers is that the wheels are big and work really well over off roading so you do not struggle as much as with regular strollers. I hope this helps. Good luck.

I have an Ironman jogging stroller. It is really light but very sturdy. It has a great big hood to keep my little guy out of the sun, but it has a flap "window" in the top so I can keep an eye on him. I love it.
