This is the best Baby Gift we recieved. My wife and I use it daily. Have done 3 hour runs with it. Our daughter loves it and so do we. Already on our second set of tires. In 2 years it has performed flawlessly and seen a LOT of miles.

Review Summary: Top Quality Jogging Stroller
This is the Lexus of strollers! Before baby I ran 20-30 miles a week. After baby I didn't think I'd get to run much, but this puppy was the only thing that put him to sleep! 1/4 mile away from the house and he was out like a light. Some might not like that the front wheel is stationary, but I didn't find it to be an issue. I like the wheel suspension on the bumpy city streets and sidewalks. The handle has a nice cushy grip with conveniently positioned hand brake. The quality on this stroller would be hard to match as the reviews support. One item I must point out of which I wasn't sure is the infant seat adapter does fit the Chicco KeyFit 30. You'll need the adapter if you're wanting to get a new baby on the road.

Review Summary: Fantastic Stroller!! (Unless you live in a walkup or urban area or your toddler is tall)
I agree with most of teh other reviews but I wanted to post just to let people know the downsides that I experienced, in case its an issue for you.
This stroller is very well designed, and on the track or any long straightaway it's almost weight-less and I love it.
But if you run in an urban area with twists and turns and curbs and cracked cement, it's kind of a pain in the butt to maneuver this stroller due to the fixed front wheel.
It does fold easily-- if the intent is to fold and throw in the back of an SUV to take it to the park.
But it doesn't secure when it's folded, (it will just flop open if you dont hold it together) so trying carrying this monster up and down 4 flights of stairs with a child in the other hand is quite a workout on its own, and nearly dangerous! I usually need assistance just to get in and out with it.
The other big suprise is that my son, at 20 months or so, seems to have nearly outgrown it. He is on the tall size for his age, but he's not even 2 yet and his head hits the lip at the top of the backrest!
For $350 I really thought this stroller would last more than from age 8 months til 22 months of age! Very disappointed about that!
Most strollers are meant for early childhood not just under age 2.
Although the stroller is a thing of beauty and works magically on while on a track.. I would never buy this again or recommend it to others.
I think many of the reviewers might have babies that haven't pushed the limits yet. When my son was 12 months I would have written a 4-star review.
