BOB stroller sale

Just a heads up for anyone in the market for a BOB stroller....REI has them on sale for 20% off this weekend. I've had my eye on the Revolution Duallie for a while now and, since BOBs rarely go on sale, I'm going to finally bite the bullet and buy one.

Re: BOB stroller sale

if you do it online, go through ebates and you'll get an extra percentage back. i know for certian that REI is on there.

Re: BOB stroller sale

I love my BOB Revolution!! Just got it through the REI sale. I bought a super-cheap stroller with DS, uncertain if/when we were having more kids. Second time around, I went for quality. DS and I have gone racewalking in the park several times already.

Re: BOB stroller sale

I've only ever heard great things about BOBs so I can't wait to get ours....it's on backorder right now. The thing that irks me, though, is that they charge $80 for a duallie car seat adapter.....and that's after shelling out $540 for the stroller! I mean....come on....it's just a piece of metal. They couldn't have just included that with the stroller?? :huh:

We have a Zooper Boogie and love it. EVERYTHING was included with it....rain cover, bug screen, boot cover, car seat adapter....and the seat reverses to become a bassinet for newborns. I wish Zooper made double joggers!

Oh - that's good to know. I just found one on craigslist but had never heard of them.

Re: BOB stroller sale

We've put a ton of miles on the Zooper and it's held up great. I'm sure it's not as smooth to push as the BOB and doesn't fold up very small.....but we have no complaints. The bassinet feature is FABULOUS! I had DS in the rear-facing position till he was about 6 months. And all you have to do to change the wheel from a fixed position to rotating is flip a switch on the handlebar. I still plan to use it when it's just me and the baby on walks.

Re: BOB stroller sale

I love my Zooper, too, and just can't find it in me to invest in a double when I spend any walk involving a stroller arguing with DD that she needs to stay in. I think I'll be using my Zooper this summer and have DH stay back with DD.

Hey Abigail and Makai (and anyone that has one) are you still in love with the BOB revolution stroller??? My dad is offering to buy any stroller I want and I really like to looks of the BOB. I haven't test drove one yet. I'm still looking for a retailer in Greenville, NC. It seems I may have to drive out to Raleigh to test drive the stroller. Is it worth the effort to check it out? I really want to stay active after the baby comes and this seems like a great stroller.

Ok - you didn't ask me - but I'll respond! We have the BOB sport utility and we LOVE it! We are getting the double one when EasternStar finally come home. We've used ours for 4 years and it is still in top notch shape.

I will say that I loved my BOB while I had it but now that we have a Phil & Ted I like it more. Its not as wide, easier for me to handle and A sits more upright in it therefore she is more engaged when we take walks, she ALWAYS fell asleep in the BOB and always fell over to one side.

Oh gosh the Phil and Ted website is wacky. What type of stroller do you have? I see several on the site...

and how come I only see double strollers on the website?? Are all the strollers double seats?

We have the Phil & Ted Sport http://www.philandteds.com/sport_index.htm and the 2nd seat (in the rear) is an optional purchase - it doesn't come with. I think they have a side by side 2 seater as well though.

Oh, I see. Most pics on the website show the second optional seat. I guess to show what it would look like with the extra seat. Thanks for that info! At this time I only need a single seat.
