 Nice Stroller Once Setup and Adjusted Strengths: Works Well, Looks Snazzy
Weaknesses: Packed poorly (easily dinged in transit), tires are hard to pump up (due to valve placement), front wheel alignment can be tricky also
Summary: I was looking for a jogging stroller so that my wife and I could better fit into our community when we went for walks with our new son (6 months old). I didn't need one right away (we hand an old, cheap hand-me-down stroller which served the purpose but had small wheels (harder to push) and looked uncool). I never had a jogger before, and we didn't intend to jog with it. However, we did want the larger wheels for easy pushing, and I liked the more upscale look of a jogger. So, I started scanning for a deal, and I found this one on Amazon. The first thing that I found upon opening the box was that it was poorly packed (from the factory, not Amazon), so the one piece was a little bent. I straightened it fairly easily, but it didn't make me feel good about the product right off the bat. After that, putting it together was a snap until it came time to pump up the tires. Because of the spacing of the "poly" rims, it was very hard to get a tire pump to attach to the valve stem of the front tire. However, after some effort, I was able to pump it up. Then I took it on a road test and found the front wheel pulling significantly to the right. It took a few adjustments to make it run straight. After all the setup, however, it seems to be a nice buggy. It is far nicer to push than a small-wheeled stroller, and my son likes it as least as much as his old stroller. So, if you are looking for a basic jogger and can find this one on sale as I did, I would recommend buying it. Just be prepared for some setup issues while you get it ready for the road.
