Jogging Stroller Recommendations?

September 7, 2006 3:52 PM

I'm in the market for a used jogging stroller, but I need recommendations. There are so many, and I'm sure some of them stink. I can't afford a BOB stroller, though people seem to think those are the best. Any ideas? Experiences?

We have a Baby Jogger, and it's fine -- my husband has run hundreds of miles with it (not all in one day). It's this model, or one like it. I see them used on eBay and craigslist all the time, if either of those are useful resources for you.

We've been using the Baby Jogger also. It disassembles easily if you need to stow it in the trunk of your car. Look for one with decent sized wheels ... they roll over cracks in the sidewalk much better than models that have small wheels.

We're looking at the various Quinny offerings (Euro stuff, available online and Ebay). No experience with them yet, but they seem smaller and smarter than what we've seen from Bob (huge) and others.

Also would be remiss not to note that there are 2.5 answers here, while there are dozens over at the "start your own microbrewery" question. MeFi demographics in action!
