The Jeep Overland Limited Jogging Stroller Vs The BOB Revolution Stroller

Okay, so you're stuck involving the Jeep Overland Limited Jogging Stroller, and also the BOB Revolution Stroller. I can discover why, they are both well built, with comfortable child seats built with a 5-point child safety harness, and multiple seat reclining positions, adjustable rain/sun hoods, large under-seat storage, parking brakes, and running leashes. The Jeep and the BOB have excellent reviews too. This may be a difficult decision, however, there are a few unique features that set those two jogging strollers apart. Let's take a look, shall we?

First, of all, the suspension systems. The Jeep Overland delivers a spring loaded suspension system, that makes to have an extremely smooth ride. The BOB Revolution delivers a shock absorbing suspension system, also smooth, however, the BOB's shock absorbers can be adjusted, according to terrain, as well as the weight of the growing child. The BOB Revolution's max weight is 70 pounds, whereas the Jeep Jogger only rises to 45 pounds. The BOB Revolution also weighs less, 23 pounds in comparison to Jeep's 28 pounds. Five pounds may seem like a lot, but when you examine what all you get with that extra 5 pounds, it doesn't seem so bad. The Jeep Overland Jogging Stroller comes with tons of extra's including, a child snack tray with cup holder, a hand brake for anyone extra steep hills, a flexible handle with multiple heights and different angles, and also a parent tray with the iBaby sounds system that provides both you and your child the opportunity to tune in to tunes around the trail. The parent tray comes with cup holders, and storage for keys, cellular phone, etc. With all of those extra's, it appears as though quite a simple decision, however you can still find a few very important key features to check.

Primary, the front wheels. The Jeep comes equipped with a set front wheel, whereas the BOB provides a locking swivel front wheel. This means that when it comes to turning the Jeep Jogging stroller, you must pop-a-wheelie in order to do so, while the BOB Revolution simply turns on a dime. The Jeep was designed for the "SERIOUS" runner, and the BOB was designed for the "ALMOST SERIOUS" runner,. That's the reason for this. Almost serious means, that you tell people you're heading out for a jog, and you end up just walking really fast 80% of the time. Hey... I'm not poking fun, I'm the "ALMOST SERIOUS, BUT NOT QUITE, BECAUSE I'M EXTREMELY LAZY" jogger. Therefore, the BOB Revolution would be more my style. I like being able to navigate through the grocery store easily, or around tight corners without lifting the front end up. I love because you can lock the front side swivel wheel, and have the added comfort of a sturdy fixed wheel when I'm "ALMOST SERIOUS" about jogging. However, what I don't like about the BOB Revolution, is the price. The listing price for the Jeep Overland Limited Jogging Stroller is $239.99, over 100 dollars lower than the BOB Revolution, priced at $389.00. Which is a big difference. You must also keep in mind that the BOB' resale value is also through the roof, however. You can sell a used BOB for pretty much the identical price as you can buy a new Jeep Overland. The BOB has a HUGE following. That's the reason for that. People like this jogging stroller. They claim it's like pushing air, light being a feather, and totally worth the additional money. The Jeep also offers excellent reviews, however I did look for a few complaints regarding the front wheel, apparently, a few people purchased it without realizing the front wheel was fixed. I assume that may tick me off too.

If you are a "SERIOUS" runner, you may want to take a better look at the Jeep Overland Limited Jogging Stroller, in conclusion. If you're an "ALMOST SERIOUS" runner, you may want to consider taking a loan out to buy the BOB Revolution Stroller. All the best, hope this can help!
