BOB Revolution Stroller
Date Published: 6/6/07
The B.O.B. Revolution Stroller may sport a high-end price, but it has the high-end performance to match.
The Revolution Stroller comes in three equally stylish colors: navy/gray, brown/pink and orange/chocolate. Unlike some jogger strollers we've tested, the B.O.B. Revolution Stroller has remarkably easy steering. We can steer this stroller with one hand, which is a definite plus when one is jogging. Plus, we've been able to easily navigate the Revolution Stroller over a variety of terrain, including sand, gravel, sidewalks and grass. The front wheel swivels, or it can be locked into position, and this assists the stroller's easy-to-steer feature.
We like the large domed canopy that provides a generous amount of coverage from sun, wind and other elements. The seat has generous padding and has a durable fabric cover. The seat reclines, which is a feature we typically appreciate. However, the Revolution's recline is minimal and didn't seem to make much of a difference to our passenger during testing. The good news is that it folds more compactly than many of the jogger strollers we've tested.
The B.O.B. Revolution Stroller -- and the entire B.O.B. stroller line -- comes with a number of customizable options, which is something we like to see in this price range. Most of the accessories -- such as the infant car seat adapter, weather shield and handlebar console -- cost extra. Of course, it would be nice to see these accessories included at no extra cost, but the fact that they are easily available is still a benefit. The verdict? The B.O.B. Revolution Stroller handles with ease, provides a smooth and comfortable ride, and is built to last.
