jogging stroller

[Kyra]

Can someone tell me what brands are good?

[Calypso]

I'm glad you asked this question Kyra. I'm actually looking for one right now since my twins are 8 months old. My Moms of Multiples is having a garage sale in May, so I'm hoping to find one then at a reasonable price.

I hope you'll get a lot of responses so we can both get some info.! :)

Me too. I'm not looking right now for me, but a friend of mine wants one.

I have the Schwinn Deluxe Single Jogging Stroller. We usually only use the stoller for walks, it's NOT a Mall Stroller.

Just stopping in....I have the Zooper Buddy and love it. It's not for trips to the mall but has been wonderful for walks on trails.

I have the Twin Alpine. I love it so far! We used it when we went "camping" recently because I knew I'd destroy our Snap N Go out in the dirt/rocks. I had the experience of pushing an umbrella stroller in it last year and needless to say we carried my friend's toddler after the first day.

We also use it to walk around the neighborhood, etc.

I like that the front wheel is not fixed (it can be though I think). A fixed front wheel can make it difficult to turn, etc.

It's expensive but you can get it on Ebay most of the time for under $200.

I'm also in the market for a jogging stroller and was looking for recommendations. I actually want to use it for jogging, and from what I have read it sounds like it is better if the front wheel is fixed... anyone have any experience with this?

[Pigglystix]

You can get ones that the front wheel can be fixed OR swivel. If you ONLY want to jog with it then I think fixed is fine. But if you want to just take walks or go places with it, I highly recommend one that can swivel otherwise you can't turn the stroller very easily. I think that's why they say to use it in a fixed position when jogging but I don't jog so I don't know for sure :lol:
