- A guided tour of the 2012 Honda CR-VThe Honda CR-V's popularity is not in question. Consistently one of the best-selling (if not THE best-selling) compact SUVs year in and year out, the CR-V has also been a steady reviewer favorite. At the end of 2011, the latest iteration of this model landed in showrooms. We spent some time with it ourselves, and can say without hesitation that the CR-V […]
- Why you shouldn't diet like a celebrityWhile researching our report on the best weight-loss programs, we learned that the key to keeping weight off is making sustainable, long-term changes. If you don't address -- and adjust -- the habits that put the weight on in the first place, it'll just come right back. Still, it's hard to resist the lure of celebrity diets, plans that promise […]
- Facebook's new Timeline and Open Graph apps: How to protect your privacyLove it or hate it, if you're a Facebook user, the new past-sharing visual Timeline (which replaces your profile page) is in your future.

These apps can automatically post your non-Facebook online activities onto your Facebook Wall, so if you list […]
- When it comes to tech, it's cool to be practicalCovering consumer electronics means wading through a lot of "ooh, shiny!" devices and "game-changing" innovations, many of which quickly fall by the wayside, replaced by something shinier and cooloer. That's why it's nice to see that some companies are looking to harness technology in a more meaningful way, thinking less about t […]
- House plants you can't killEven with the pleasantly warm weather this week in New York City (thanks global warming), it's hard not to long for a little green right about now. With my notoriously black thumb, I typically shy away from growing houseplants and instead anxiously await the sprouting of my neighbors spring bulbs. Not this year. Intrigued by Home Depot's money back […]
- Phish of the day: Beware tax-season email scamsIf you've noticed an uptick of spam in your junk mail folder lately, you're not alone. Scammers go into overtime around the holidays and into tax season, aiming to trick you into forking over personal information. These email sneak-attacks are called "phishing" and it's nothing new. What is new this year is that a lot of the bogus em […]
- A new and (p)interesting way to shop onlineJust a year ago when I was moving into my first apartment, my cousin sent me an invite to a site she thought could help me shop for my new digs: Pinterest. I will admit: I played around with it, and I just didn't get it; I was overwhelmed by images and I found the interface cluttered. She said I was missing out on something great, and now I'm eati […]

- Beauty beware: Hepatitis risk at nail salons and barbershopsI'm a do-it-yourselfer when it comes to nail care, preferring to shape and paint my own talons instead of paying someone else to do it. Apparently, my frugal ways may do more than save me money -- it might also save my health. Nail salon and barbershop patrons may be at risk for hepatitis infection if the tools commonly used -- such as nail files, nail […]
- Are you buying a big-screen TV for the big game?Over the years, the Super Bowl has grown from just being a game for all the marbles at the end of the NFL season to a near-universal day of celebration and parties that even non-fans can enjoy. Sure there's the spectacle of the game itself, but watching all of those "can you top this" commercials has grown into its own national pastime. And no […]
- Hands-on with four good, cheap new carsI get to drive a lot of different cars throughout the year, and they run the gamut from Powerball-winner hardware to basic, affordable transportation. Sure, the glitzy stuff is a lot of fun, but some of the best new cars I've had the opportunity to try are also among the least expensive. This is good news if you want to buy a new car but have a modest […]
- Child seat belt safety: When to transition out of a boosterParents might breathe a sigh of relief when their children no longer need a bulky child car seat or booster, but they shouldn't exhale just yet.

- Inspired vegetarian recipes to chase away the winter bluesIn the dead of winter, with greenmarkets either closed or offering very limited selections of produce, it's all too easy to think that healthy, meat-free meals are out of reach. But you can still find a variety of veggies that are either in season or available year-round. With a mind toward that healthy-eating New Year's resolution, we scoured the […]
- Should Google's new privacy policy worry you?"Don't be evil." Google's unofficial mantra sounds pretty noble, right? But some say that Google has lost its guiding light in the wake of some recent changes to the company's privacy policy and Terms of Use. What's all the hubbub about? Why do some think it's the end of privacy as we know it, and others just shrug their sh […]
- Can you trust online reviews?The issue of fake user reviews is nothing new. We blogged about it back in 2009 after a Wall Street Journal article exposed the practice by certain companies of having employees post favorable write ups to user-review sites, such as Amazon.com. Now, The New York Times has shed some light on something new, yet still the same: offering real customers financial […]
- DOT tries to put the "fair" in airfare pricingEarlier this week I booked a flight from New York to Miami. Even though JetBlue only flies to the nearby Fort Lauderdale, I couldn't pass up the advertisement in an e-mail sent to me: Book Today, $89 each way from JFK. When I went online to look up fares, I did not see that fantastic rate; instead the fares were through the roof with the flights I want […]

We love our double jogger! The kids are so comfortable and it pushes really nicely. My husband was joking that it is like a mini SUV. We live on a horse farm and I push up and down our bumpy dirt road and to the park with ease. The tires are really big and sturdy. I am glad we didn’t go with the swivel because I think the bumpy road would have made the jogger turn to the side. I also love the parking brake because I can put it on in the barn if they fall asleep and I can ride my horse. I am looking forward to having it on the beach this summer. I know it will push through the sand easily. The canopy’s cover all the way over my daughter’s feet. This is the only stroller that keeps the sun out of her eyes. It has been a life saver with a 6 month old and 3 year old. A must have!

This is such a great stroller. I had an InStep before this for about 18 months and it broke apart one thing at a time. So, I decided to get a higher quality one and am so glad I did. It is so easy to put together and use. I have a Subaru Forester and it fits in my trunk great. It is easy to adjust the front wheel when it veers; the basket is big and spacious; the seats are very comfortable for the kids. My kids actually wanted to be buckled in the seats and preferred riding when they usually like to walk. It rains a lot and snows a lot where we live and the canopy is sufficient without the rain cover to keep the weather out.

BOB makes an excellent product. The quality of the stroller was excellent. My only problem was the fixed wheel. The trails around my house are not straight therefore the stroller was difficult to turn. I got the BOB Revolution Dualie instead and I love it!!! The extra cost was worth it for me. It is the best stroller I have ever owned, and I have owned a lot!

We bought this model over five years ago; the picture looks like they may have updated it a bit since that time.
We have loved our massive stroller.It is in excellent condition still despite nearly daily use. After five years of tipping over, being thrown into our car trunk, and slamming into countless door jams, it looks nearly new and is just barely starting to lose some of the foam grip. The tires were a little subpar for the price, but that’s the easiest thing to fix. The parking brake never worked at all–even after having a bike expert mess with it, we could never get it to lock in place even unloaded on a flat surface. The safety strap is very well made, and I recommend playing yo-yo with it when you walk up hills. Your kids will love it.
Kids are well protected from sun and light rain/snow with the canopy up, but it’s not much help in pouring rain. We haven’t tried the optional cover, so our kids are manly and wet. The harness is adjustable at several points and fit all our kids as soon as they were fit for public exposure and we can still comfortably secure our strapping kindergartener.
It is huge, but it fits in the tiny trunk of our Saturn sedan, so I’m sure it would fit in just about any car so long as you remove the wheels (takes 2 seconds once you are used to it).
The list of places this won’t go is long. I have lifted it over many gates at zoos and parks (usually with passengers), but it is quite heavy and I think it may be too much for a lot of moms. It does not fit in most public doorways, so it’s not ideal for running errands, and also you would destroy everything in your path if you tried to take it into a store (though the storage compartment under the seats is spacious and fairly accessible). I haven’t done too much trail running so I can’t comment on the fixed wheel being a hindrance; it’s not an issue for us, though you do have to take the occasional 3-part u-turn.
In conclusion, for running, trips to the park, or anywhere a really large stroller would be welcome, it is ideal, indestructible, and worth every cent. If I need to, I will buy a single at some point. I can’t imagine having to replace this one, though.
