Summary: Great Jogging Stroller! 2007-06-08
Comment: I am so pleased with this stroller! I am an avid runner and needed a stroller that would take the wear and tear I would be giving! I love all the added features like the plug-in for my I-pod and tons of storage.
My daughter is 8 months old and she loves the ride. I have no issues with safety; 5 point harness is very secure. All around very sturdy, light weight, and smooth!
Some reviews mention things about infants and the jogging stroller...doctors and the maker recommend for 6m-up. Also its call a jogging stroller for a reason...it's not made for the mall and stores! Sorry had to give my 2 cents.

Summary: overland strooller 2007-05-21
Comment: This is not a stroller for shopping. It does well with walking or light jogging, but at faster speeds the front wheel does become an issue. I live on a asphalt road, this stroller very good with the bumps(a friend has one with a front wheel that turns , hers seems much bumper). The features are nice(music, adjustable seat, air pump and cup holders). My biggest complaint is the latch system. This is not very suitable for infant under 6 mo. The latch is made of thin straps not very much to them. The one between the legs seems uncomfortable. The latch it self can be very dangerous, I have given my self a blood blister 2x when securing my child in. Be extra sure to keep your hands away from the middle of the latch when securing, and especially your childs inner leg and fingers!!!

Summary: Far better options exist 2007-02-26
Comment: A tricycle stroller is a great idea. It's also an excellent idea to put real rubber inflatable spoked tires on a stroller, but with a fixed front wheel, the disadvantages outweigh the advantages. Sure, it's great when you're actually jogging along, but for daily use, it's terrible.
You have to lift the front tire every time you want to make even a slight adjustment in direction. If you're on a gravelly running path, there's enough slip to turn without lifting, but on cement or asphalt, beware. It's even worse on indoor surfaces. If you're going a long distances in straight lines, great. For big turns, it's also not a big deal, but when you're turning a lot, all the minor little course corrections get annoying very quickly.
It's especially bad when casually walking along. I hated this when I went to the zoo; in crowds, you're constantly making slight changes in direction. It's very tedious. Not only that, the front wheel sticks out a long way, so to be polite in a crowd, you've got to change courses much more often than a standard stroller, too.
Do yourself a favor; choose a model with a pivoting front wheel unless you really are doing a lot of jogging. The long wheel base of this model does help for this use.
When this was new to the market, it was a welcome option. But now there are other models on the market with large spoked wheels that have a caster bearing over the front wheel that addresses all the criticisms in this review, yet maintain nearly the same stability at jogging speed by having a slightly wider track in the rear.
