To ease the minds of parents where safety is concerned, we would like to explain some of the safety features of jogging strollers. We want parents to know that jogging strollers are safety tested in many different ways, and come loaded with features that are designed to keep your little one safe while you exercise!

Safety Harness:

The safety Harness is the set of straps that acts as the primary safety feature against your child being thrown out of the carriage. While they may seem simple, there is actually a complex structure to ensure the balance between comfort and safety for your child.

There are usually two variants for these safety harnesses. Some jogging strollers have the “3 point harness”. The 3 point harness is has two straps that come together over a child’s hips or stomach, and a third strap that comes up between the child’s legs. There are also some jogging strollers that have the “5 point harness”. While similar to the 3 point harness, the 5 point harness has an additional strap over each shoulder that secures the child.

Hand brakes:

There are now jogging strollers that have hand brakes that enable you to slow down and stop your stroller without having to strenuously drag or pull it back while you are jogging. The good thing with a hand brake is that it is able to give you controlled stopping which lessens the risk of your child being thrown forward because of your momentum and the sudden stop.

Safety Wrist tethers:

Another innovation in jogging strollers is the introduction of safety wrist tethers. These tethers have one end attached to the stroller while the other end is attached in a comfortable manner to your wrist.

These are made so that the stroller would not be able to get away from you. It help prevent instances where you push the jogging stroller a little too strong and will not be able to keep up with it.

Bob Revolution Duallie Stroller

Dual jogging strollers are notorious for being very difficult to handle, Aside from the common issues with regard to the wheels that seem to plague all strollers, you would also have to contend with the added weight that the larger carriages that dual strollers have.

Stroller manufacturer BOB seems to understand this and tried to provide a solution through the BOB Revolution Duallie Stroller . This stroller prides itself in possessing smooth handling despite the dual load.

The Bob Revolution Duallie stroller lets you get around the house, the neighborhood, or the market with ease thanks to an innovative wheel design that expertly handles corners, giving parents supreme ease of use while strolling.

Of course, the BOB Revolution Duallie Stroller is not limited to smooth handling, other features include:

• Suspension system capable of 3 inches of travel, provides for an exceptionally smooth the ride,33.2-pounds
• 12" Front wheel swivels for increased maneuverability and locks forward for jogging
• Swivel front wheel is a ball bearing headset"
• Two step folding system
• Adjustable 5 point harness

What  I like about the stroller:

For a double jogging stroller, I would say that the BOB Revolution Duallie Stroller is one of the best in its class. I like many of the features that it has, and here are a few that I would like to highlight:

• Large Sun Canopy

Especially when you consider that it is a double jogging stroller, the BOB Revolution Duallie Stroller has a very sufficient sun canopy. Unlike the other models that do not provide adequate shade for both of the people inside the carriage, the canopy on this model is able to sufficiently shade both of the children that are seating in the stroller.

• Great Handling

I have to say that the BOB Revolution Duallie Stroller is as good as advertised when it comes to handling. It is actually quite easy to turn on a dime, or maneuver around tight or crowded spaces. The Revolution stroller is also quite good when it comes to handling rough terrain.

I also have to commend the Suspension system that the BOB Revolution Duallie Stroller uses. Even if we pass through rough and cracked pavements, the kids inside the stroller are still comfortable and do not experience too many shakes.

• Good Seating space for both children

The common gripe with double jogging strollers is that they are not able to provide ample seating space for children. Too often the seating space is too tight and the children become uncomfortable.

Fortunately, the BOB Revolution Duallie Stroller does not have this problem as it has ample space for both children. The kids would not feel constricted once they are in the jogging stroller.

What could be improved on:

While I think that the BOB Revolution Duallie Stroller is an excellent double jogging stroller, there is one thing that I hope they would improve on:

• Under the seat storage

While the under the seat storage provides ample space for all my items and packages, I have had some trouble with getting the items when I need them.

The positioning of the basket is not very conducive for trying to reach for items underneath the stroller.

Overall Rating:

Retail Price: Varies based on product options

Amazon Price: View Sale Price

The Bottom Line:
As a double jogging stroller, few can match the benefits provided by the BOB Revolution Duallie Stroller especially when you consider its price. The handling is top notch, your children fit well and are comfortable, and they are secure inside the stroller.

I think that the BOB Revolution Duallie Stroller is as closest to the perfect double jogging stroller as there could be.
