Comments about BOB Revolution Duallie AW 12'' Stroller - 2008:
I spent a very long time trying to swallow the price tag on this stroller. Luckily it went on sale [$] I also bought the carseat adaptor and cup tray for the handlebar. I have to say this is the best stroller. I spent months reviewing and test driving every double stroller known to man and this by far is the best. The only drawback is the under neath storage is not easily accessible for such a big stroller. That being said this stroller has fit through every door I've tried it on and the fact that it turns on a dime makes it easy to maneuver with one hand so you can open a door and drive the stroller through without hassle. Also, the carseat adaptor is great. It's one of the few strollers that has the option to have a toddler on one side with his snack tray and the infant carseat on the other. My 2 year old has plenty of room and he is a big guy for his age. This was something I had a hard time with the Maclaren with. It wasn't wide enough for him to have the baby next to him and still be comfortable. Also, I have to have a snack tray for him. As long as he has an endless supply of cheerios or some other bite size snack in his tray in front of him he will go for hours in a stroller no problem. When you take one out there is no lopsided feeling like you get with other side by sides. It rides like its on air. I take it everywhere and people comment on it. It also surprised me that it folded flat in the back of our Kia sportage. I acutally have more room in my back now with this double than I did with our single jeep jogger! The tires pop off with the flip of a latch so it's easy to get even more room and once you get the hang of it opening and closing are a cinch. It is heavy but doesn't weigh any more than my single stroller did so it's no biggie. Besides, it's a double stroller so you kind of have to expect it's going to weigh more. I have to say I'm glad we got this one. The phil and Ted's was the other we considered but really the design of that boggles my mind. What kid wants to ride underneath the other so that he can't see anything that's going on??? I put my son in it just to try it out and he was immediately unhappy. I give this stroller my highest rating and advise anyone who can to save up and get it. It's totally worth it!

Comments about BOB Revolution Duallie AW 12'' Stroller - 2008:
I am AD military living in the Kaiserslautern, Germany area. We searched and searched for an all purpose stroller for our twins. We bought a Chariot Cougar Double and found it well constructed, great for cycling, but a little too wide and heavy for the quick in-and-out stops. The Bob Revolution Duallie works great on base (yes, it fits between the check-out isles in the commissary and BX) and is small enough to use in most (not all) stores off base. The rear suspension is a must-have for the cobble stone sidewalks and uneven terrain for Europe. It will fit on a train and easily stows in the back of our 1998 Odyssey and 2007 Jetta. Running/jogging/strolling with it outside is a dream...to make it even better, buy the cover. If you're looking for an all-around double stroller with an option for jogging...stop searching and buy this one...[...]. The stroller is a bit pricey but worth every penny.

Comments about BOB Revolution Duallie AW 12'' Stroller - 2008:
This stroller is great. My 4yr old is 38lbs and my 15mo. old is 22lbs. They both sit comfortably w/room to grow. The canopy goes lower than any other I've owned. The basket is pretty roomy, you just need to know how to load everything. The 5point harness is very easy to adjust & the kids don't complain about any discomfort. The stroller practically pushes itself. It is SO easy to push. I have a tandem stroller and it's awful to push/steer with 2 kids. The wheels are great and the suspension makes any road condition a nice ride. It also fits through all standard door ways.
My only complaint is collapsing the stroller & trying not to get pegged by the front wheel. It's awkward to pick up & stow but I'll get it.

Don't get confused by the higher price tag on this stroller. We bought it thinking it was the more expensive one so it must be the best of the jogging strollers. The rear wheels on this stroller are smaller than the Revolution. It is not a jogging stroller! If you don't need a jogger look at double umbrella strollers. We have a pricey double side by side umbrella stroller with more features than this BOB, much easier to maneuver and more compact. We will be trading this for the Revolution NON AW model because we need a jogger. Good luck and I hope this helps!

I was reluctant to buy a double "jogger" as I live in a big city and was really buying it for walks to/from the park - and needed "snow tires." Although it is heavy, it is very easy to open and fold. It is a great stroller! Smoother ride than my single Bugaboo. The salesman at REI even assembled it for us upon pick-up. I am very happy with this purchase and highly recommend it!As a side-note, I was able to put my eight week old son in one side with the seat reclined and the head piece from my Kiddopotomus Snuzzler to keep his head in place. Don't waste your money on the adapter if you can wait a few weeks.

My twin boys love this stroller!!! They enjoy their daily walk so much more in this stroller(we also have a tandem Graco). The ride is so smooth and it's easy to steer. I researched a lot of strollers before making the decision to buy this one. No regrets.

Comments about BOB Revolution Duallie AW 12'' Stroller - 2008:
I have been using a single BOB for the past 2 years and just upgraded to a BOB Duallie over the weekend. There were a few important things that the Duallie needed to cover...aside from the usual safety, quality, and durablility marks... Bob has that down pat.
... First of all, it must fit in the trunk of my small compact car (a Jetta. Which I am happy to report that it does this when you take off the front wheel. This is not a big deal for me as I would gladly take off all the wheels if necessary in order for me to use it. Second, it must fit thru doorways. I just came back fromt the zoo...our first Duallie trip. It fit thru every single door that I went thru.(funny though, people would sometimes hold both doors open for us assuming that we needed the extra space.. and it was a nice gesture...but this BOB can do it!!) Third...it must be as easy to maneuver as the single BOB...which I why we are trying out the smaller wheel version. So far so good. I have not gotten stuck yet. It is light to push and the weight is distributed evenly.
Those are all the main marks that the Duallie needed to hit.. it does and we are happy. The drink holder is a must have purchase also. Where else does the water or coffee go? The only complaint is that the underbasket is small, but if you pack things more flat instead of stuffing a bag full and trying to cram it in...it is manageable.
We purchased this when it was on sale so the price was a bit lower that normal.. but still alot of money. Let me just say... I have been in childcare for several years. I have 2 of my own and one on the way. I have used several strollers out there on the market. Every single one is just plain terrible. They don't steer,they are heavy to push, they give out, they are just plain junk. Absolutley nothing compares to a BOB. Save yourself the hassles and headaches and all the ridiculous things that come from the usual strollers and get a BOB the first time. You will never regret it. Plus.. when you are done with it... they have great resale value.. so the kids can still go to college. :)
