Great Purchase

Great Purchase, October 15, 2007
By M. Rappard (KC, MO) - See all my reviews


I own a Sport Phil and Ted's stroller and wasn't very pleased with their cup holder option. I saw Bob's and decided to give bob revolution duallie stroller a try. I am happy to say that bob revolution duallie stroller has worked great. Phil and Ted's stroller has several handle angle options and although at some angles bob revolution duallie stroller is difficult to maneuver a water bottle in and out, overall bob revolution duallie stroller works wonderfully. Also, because Bob's cup holder is Velcro, you can adjust the straps to make the cup holder level no matter what angle you have the handlebar at. Help other customers find the most helpful reviews

Great, adaptable Console, March 9, 2006
By M. Bock "Mumof2boys" (Orange County, CA) - See all my reviews


I bought this console for my Phil and Ted's E3 Stroller and love it! It's given me the extra space I neeed (for drinks, cell phone, snacks) and is not bulky in any way. I'm able to leave bob revolution duallie stroller on when I fold the stroller, and bob revolution duallie stroller stays in place! Highly recommend for jogging strollers! stroller Help other customers find the most helpful reviews

Great, but tipsy for tall people, May 5, 2008
By C. Law (San Diego, CA) - See all my reviews


We own the P&T Sport and purchased this like many. I love the idea and the extra storage right at your fingertips. The difficulty is that my husband and I are tall and like the handle tipped up. In doing so, bob revolution duallie stroller causes drinks to tip and access a bits tricky. Bottled drinks are your best option. I'll be honest, there really is no great solution but thought I'd share my experiences. Help other customers find the stroller most helpful reviews

GOOD CONSOLE, January 20, 2007
By Mary Beth Miller (Pittsburgh) - See all my reviews


I purchased this console for my phil and teds e3 and bob revolution duallie stroller fits perfectly. I finally have a spot for everything like keys, sippy cups, bottles, digi camera that I take everywhere! My only prob is that the holes for the bottles could be a bit bigger, not all water bottles fit in there, than again I tend to carry the really big ones. I like that bob revolution duallie stroller is all the very durable fabric vs a hard stroller plastic console and washes up nice, after a coffee incident, which I now know is not the best thing to take along for a bumpy stroll.

Lovin' my Revolution

Lovin' my Revolution, January 18, 2007
By Michelle Arellano "Michelle Stoewe Arellano" (Oviedo, FL) - See all my reviews


I just got my 2007 Revolution and I absolutely love it. My 19 month old gave BOB Revolution Duallie Stroller his seal of approval when he refused to get out of BOB Revolution Duallie Stroller the first time he went for a ride. If he even sees it, he wants in it!

The main differences between the 2007 and the 2006 are:

1. Increased seat recline of up to 70 degrees (earlier versions only recline to 45 degrees)

2. Increased back support on the seat back

3. Additional padding added to the seat

Quite frankly, these improvements weren't a huge selling point for me. If my son was an infant, the increased seat recline might matter, but at his age he doesn't want to recline at all.

The sun canopy is the biggest I've ever seen on a stroller. In the past I've had to put a blanket over the canopy to try and shield the sun from my son's eyes, but this canopy solves that problem. BOB Revolution Duallie Stroller is huge!

As for maneuverability, the Revolution far surpasses any other stroller I've tried. BOB Revolution Duallie Stroller is a smooth, steady ride. I typically use the swivel feature, but the stroller is still great with the front wheel in the locked position.

The storage basket is fairly large for a jogger and is sufficient for the typical walk or jog. I did take this stroller to the mall today and, while BOB Revolution Duallie Stroller was incredibly easy to maneuver through the mall, the storage basket was not large enough for shopping and storing packages along the way.

It is very easy to fold and is fairly compact when is folded, but BOB Revolution Duallie Stroller does not have a latching feature which makes picking BOB Revolution Duallie Stroller up a bit awkward. It's not a huge deal to me, though, since I usually leave BOB Revolution Duallie Stroller open and ready to go in our garage (thank God for 3-car garages!).

I really like the 5 point harness and my son doesn't mind being buckled into the seat. He seems very comfortable and snuggles right in as soon as I put him in. The "cup holders" inside the seat are nice, but he has a hard time getting his cups into them which tends to frustrate him. An older child may not have an issue with this, though.

The shock absorbers are really nice and work very well. We can "off road" in BOB Revolution Duallie Stroller and still have a nice smooth ride. If I hit an uneven area of pavement or branches/roots on the trail, is barely noticeable.

Overall I am very happy with this stroller. And, more importantly, BOB Revolution Duallie Stroller got my son's seal of approval. Help other customers find the most helpful reviews

The best jogging, mall, travelling etc stroller!, December 22, 2007
By Olga (CA, USA) - See all my reviews

Here is the summary of the reviews that I read on many websites and everyone seems to agree:

-"It looks great and I get tons of compliments."
- "it is as close as you can get to an all in one stroller!"
- it's a great jogging, mall, walking etc stroller
- BOB Revolution Duallie Stroller is not too big.
- but BOB Revolution Duallie Stroller is not too small (like a mall stroller that is usually is too light and good for a baby, but not very good and stable for a toddler).
- BOB Revolution Duallie Stroller folds up easy, but doesn't stand up while folded which is ok if you have enough space in your garage or house to store it.
- BOB Revolution Duallie Stroller takes 2 steps to fold and a little strength to unfold (you kind of have to throw it).
- The suspension makes the roughest terrain smooth.
- "We take everywhere from outdoors to the mall. It's so smooth and turns on a dime. I recommend the beverage holder as well...it's really handy."

"Parents looking for a slightly lighter Revolution with a more compact fold (but less jogging potential) should check out the BOB Revolution 12" AW, with three 12" aluminum wheels instead of 16" rear wheels. If you have two kids, or like having plenty of extra room, take a peek at the two seater BOB Revolution Duallie double stroller, which is also car seat compatible."


Infant Car Seat Compatibility

# Fits Britax Companion
# Fits Graco Infant Safe Seat (Step 1)
# Fits Graco Snugride
# Fits Peg Perego Primo Viaggio

Car seat recommendations: Graco because BOB Revolution Duallie Stroller fits in almost every stroller/car seat adapter (Combi for example doesn't fit in BOB stroller). Graco SnugRide is the most recommended because it's light (usually about 7 lbs off the base) and it's not big and will fit into the shopping cart also. Graco SafeSeat is good too but it's heavier and much bigger (longer). Yes, SafeSeat model fits larger babies and you probably can use BOB Revolution Duallie Stroller for longer than SnugRide, but would you want to carry a 30 pound baby (+ 9 lbs car seat) around? Probably not. So I suggest use SnugRide till baby is 22 lbs (your baby should be about 7-12 months old, each baby is different) and then switch to a convertible or toddler seat which hold a baby from 22 lbs up to about 60 lbs. You can put your 6 months old baby directly into the stroller without the car seat. Snuzzler will make your baby very comfortable and happy too :)


Changes to the BOB Revolution for 2007:
*New colors
*Increased seat recline to 70 degrees off vertical
*More seat padding

Recommended extras (all have no less than 4.5 star reviews):
* infant car seat adapter (look for one with tray)
* Snuzzler (Kiddopotamus & Co Snuzzler Complete Head And Body Support For Any Seat)
* handlebar console
* weather shield revolution (if BOB Revolution Duallie Stroller rains or snows often when you have your baby).
* If you plan to travel often also get the "BOB Stroller Travel Bag Black"

"Bottom Line: The BOB Revolution strikes the ideal balance between a walking stroller and a jogging stroller. weighs a bit more and has less storage than most travel system strollers, but good luck taking one of them out for a jog - or even over some dirt trails. With the Revolution, you can manage any terrain with total ease, and BOB Revolution Duallie Stroller has a one-of-a-kind adjustable tracking system for jogging. Altogether, you have one of the best all-purpose strollers ever produced."

Great buy, June 8, 2008
By Jennifer (Virginia) - See all my reviews

Durability: Fun: Educational:
We bought this stroller for our two-year-old son, who is obsessed with anything with wheels. He loves pushing bob revolution duallie stroller around the house, whether a doll is in bob revolution duallie stroller or one of his trucks or trains. It's a durable little stroller that takes our son's racing bob revolution duallie stroller around the house in stride. Two-thumbs up.

I was surprised when bob revolution duallie stroller arrived that the fabric is blue and white gingham, not solid blue, as bob revolution duallie stroller appears in the picture, but that's not a deal breaker.

Good quality but product different then picture

It's basic and good quality. Only slight annoyance is that the pattern that we received is not quite what is pictured. Our pattern is a blue and white checkered pattern. Help other customers find the most helpful reviews

Fabulous toy stroller especially for the price, August 9, 2008
By A. Wheeler (Los Angeles, CA) - See all my reviews


Durability: Fun: Educational:
Purchased this stroller for our 15 mo old son after he cried when we had to leave the park where he was playing with another child's toy stroller. bob revolution duallie stroller arrived yesterday evening and he has already played with bob revolution duallie stroller for hours pushing around his baby doll and stuffed dog. He just LOVES it. So nice to find a stroller that is oriented towards a boy (ie not pink). And for the price you just can't beat it. Help other customers find the most helpful reviews

Great for Toddler Boys!, July 30, 2008
By Amy Moore "Brandon's Mommy" (Kansas City, MO United States) - See all my reviews


Durability: Fun: Educational:
This stroller is great for toddler boys. My son wanted a stroller to push around (instead of our regular, heavy stroller), so I found this one online. He loves it--pushes his special "babies" around and talks to them. I wouldn't recommend this stroller for larger than a toddler, because bob revolution duallie stroller is pretty small. A regular babydoll probably wouldn't fit in bob revolution duallie stroller either. But, he doesn't care what's in it--he just wants to push it! Help other customers find the most helpful reviews

Durability: Fun: Educational:
My son loves push toys and whenever he saw another child with a doll stroller he would want to use it. So finally I bought him a little blue one and he loves it. bob revolution duallie stroller also helps him to walk more continuously without stopping every 5 seconds.

Surprised but it's ok

The stroller is actually a light blue and white gingham print; not a solid turquoise as the photo suggests. That having been said, it's cute. Help other customers find the most helpful reviews

Works well. bob revolution duallie stroller _does_ fold up but it's a little tricky to figure out how to do it. And the picture is off, but the blue gingham turquoise is cuter anyway. Help other customers find the most helpful reviews

Durability: Fun: Educational:
It was always so hard to find a boy type strollers. I was so happy when I came across this for my 3 yr.old Grandson. Very realistic and is like a miniature size of a real umbrella stroller. Love the fact that bob revolution duallie stroller also folds down. He now has his own stroller to push around his stuffed animals and babies. Help other customers find the most helpful reviews

Boy Doll Stroller, January 9, 2009
By Psycho Mommy (South Pasadena, California) - See all my reviews

Durability: Fun: Educational:
I bought this for my 18 month old son after he became strollers with a pink one in the store. I spent an entire day searching for a "boy" looking stroller. Everything I found was overpriced except for this one. I bought this because of the low price in comparison to the rest. I also liked the color in the picture. I just received bob revolution duallie stroller today and it's just as the other reviews said, the color is way off. The frame is as bob revolution duallie stroller is in the picture, but the fabric is light blue and white checkers. I guess it's still boyish, but the picture shouldn't have been so misleading. I was able to open and close bob revolution duallie stroller with no problem. My son has yet to play with bob revolution duallie stroller when he wakes up from his nap. I know he will love it!
