Comments about phil&teds Sport Buggy Stroller - Single:
I bought this stroller in anticipation of having my second child. I was excited because I loved the design. I expected to use this as my travel, out and about stroller. I have had 12 flat tires and my son is only 3.5 months old. The tires are not covered under the warranty, but they have been sending me new ones, since the ones on my stroller exploded on the 1st day I had it. If you put any air in them at all, they will explode, especially if you leave them in your car on a hot day. When they explode, the tire will warp and you will have to get a new one. They say you can inflate them to 22 Psi, but if you have a measurable amount of tire pressure, you will get flats (and even if you don't).
If you are used to having a Graco, you may be perfectly happy with this stroller, but if you have been using something along the lines of a Mountain Buggy, Bob, or Chariot, you will be sorely disappointed in this stroller. My husband finally told me to throw it out and go buy something else. I only wish that REI had sold them sooner, so I could return it to them.

We have been using this stroller for 4 months and we love it. NO problems with the wheels or tires. Bought it to replace a ridiculously large used all-terrain stroller that we had (think BOB) that was heavy and would not fit in the trunk of our car when folded - we were looking for compact and convenient and this is it. Only have one child right now but eventually we will need the double seat and felt it was a smart move to get a single that could turn to double (and back to single). This stroller is great b/c it folds up so small and fits easily into sedan trunk and can handle anything. I'm amazed all the time at how easy it is to fit it and luggage, groceries, etc. in the car. It's not a "jogging" stroller, but that's not what we were looking for, just a good quality stroller that could handle a variety of activities on gravel, sand, dirt, mud, rural roads, etc. and so far it's lived up to our expectations. The shade is too small, esp. for this price, of course they sell a separate one, for single and one for the double. Also doesn't hurt that it's really great looking!

I love this stroller. It's design is very slim and sleek. I bought the infant carseat adapter and was able to use it right away. I use the stroller through the winter when we took our son on walks in the park as well as to the mall. I could easily push it through parts where the snow was not shoveled. I also took the stroller through hiking trails where there was tree roots and woodchips all over. I've had the stroller for 8 months now and no issues so far with the stroller. All three wheels have a quick release so to remove for easy storage in a car. I don't remove the wheels, which in turn just takes up more space in my trunk. When folded, the stroller does take up a lot of room in the truck of a car. I don't usually take this stroller on road trips because of trunk space issues. The canopy on the stroller is useless. I bought a universal shade to attach for this stroller so that my son is actually protected from the sun. The stroller has multiple angles for the seat because of adjustable straps. The seat can lay completely flat, unlike other jogging strollers which lay only down to 70 degrees. We got this stroller because we wanted an all-terrain jogging stroller that was the lightest to lift because my husband has a bad back.

I LOVE this stroller! I bought my Phil&Teds stroller several years ago at the birth of our first child, anticipating more children in the future. We now have a 2 1/2 yr old and a 1 yr old. It's my only stroller and I use it almost daily. I do a lot of trail walking and it can be taken for shorter runs (6 mi.) comfortably with 1 child. It's much more maneuverable and compact than a standard jogging stroller, since the front wheel swivels and the wheels aren't so big. I love that I haven't had to buy other strollers with the birth of our 2nd child! We've saved $$$$ in the long run. The only cons are that the sun-shade isn't great and it's not intended for running with 2 kids. I did buy the car-seat adapter kit for our Graco car seat; works great. Also, the BOB Revolution accessory holder fits well...a must if you have the 2nd child and, therefore, lose most of the storage space in the bottom of the stroller.

I was really looking for a jogger stroller with a front tire that had the swivel/lock option, then I saw that this one had that, plus it converted to a non-bulky double stroller & I knew it was the one (since we're hoping on having more kids in the future) So far (We've had it 5 months) I love this stroller! It folds easily & can fit in the back seat next to our daughter's carseat so our dogs can still be in the rear of our vehicle! It's lightweight & I can lift it without a problem. I have used it for walking, jogging, shoping, & it works great. It doesn't have suspension, so you do feel bumps, but my daughter doesn't seem to mind.Cons: the sunshade is definitly too short, really doesn't do much.I wish it had a handle break... it only has a foot breakWe had a very frustrating ordeal when we first purchased this stroller because [...] over filling the tires, so we had 3 popped tires over 3 days!! They finally figured out that the tires say 35psi, but the rims say do not exceed 22psi so if you get this stroller, be sure they go by the rim psi.We have had a couple quality issues. Not long after having this stroller the metal arch of the sunshade that meets the frame broke off (the sunshade was still functional), and recently one of the zippers that adjusts the seat positions broke off (the actual metal broke in half, it didn't just detatch) So, I had the option of returning it @ REI[...]but decided that the benifits of this stroller outweigh the cons.... there's just no other stroller like it! I did end up contacting the PhilandTeds company about the zipper & sunshade & they sent us replacements at no cost. They were really great & there was no hassle, so this was reassuring. We also have the weathersheild that I have used a lot in rain and wind, and also just in colder weather, it really keeps the chill out, so I would really reccomend this.You can also purchase a carseat adapter for this stroller, which I am going to do.All in all, this stroller is one of a kind, if you're looking for a stroller that you can walk, jog, and shop in, plus be single or a double without the double wide or double long, this is it :)

This is my everyday stroller for my toddler and newborn. The kids, my husband and I love the stroller. It was worth the investment.
Our previous stroller was the limousine of strollers tandem stroller. Which was huge, cumbersome, heavy, difficult to maneuver, when folded the seats must be removed and my newborn did not like it at all.
We would highly recommend this to parents with a toddler and newborn. It's easy to maneuver, fold, carry, large accessible storage, and change seating positions to accommodate the kids. This stroller has great uses at the park, crowded city, beach, shopping malls/stores, grocery store, and exercise. Wish the canopy was larger and wish the child in the back had a canopy.

I really like this stroller; I bought it in the plan to have another baby. This is GREAT b/c it is not HUGE and is easy to more through stores while shopping and when the baby comes it will be so nice to not have to pack around a boat of a stroller that is hard to stear through narrow store aisles. Also both seats are 5 point harnesses and VERY easy to put on. My child LOVES to be buckled in..it use to fight it in the old stroller. Since we bought this stroller my child is ALWAYS wanting to ride in it or just sit in it. I NEVER would have thought! I just wish the brake was easier to set AND the handle did not wiggle as much, but with 8 height settings a little wiggle is not that big of a deal.
