Melissa, Can you tell about your BJ?

It looks like we may need a double stroller in about 32 weeks;).
I really like the looks of this one...and THAT FOLD!

Can you please tell me more about it oh, and does it take an infant seat?

Thank you!!!!

I just bought one from Melissa...;)

The fold is amazing but what will get you even more are the sunshades! They are simply to die for. They go almost all the way down to the child's knees and will block out pretty much all sunlight on a sleeping baby. They are also totally independent and adjustable of each other. There are also roll up mesh windows to let in some air on hot days on the sides of the sunshades.

There are huge mesh pockets on the back of each seat and a little zippered pocket on the back at the top of each seat. They both recline independently of each other and almost flat... perfect for newborn. The recline mechanism is infinite and very easy to both recline and put upright again.

The seats have a 5pt harness that is a little difficult to do at first... great for kids that like to be escape artists! It also has several different height adjustments for the harness that are super easy to adjust.

The front wheels can be locked in position or swivel with a simple push of a button. The stroller is very narrow and goes anywhere a wheelchair can. It is highly manouverable and turns on a dime.

The back wheels have quick release and come off at the push of a button. The handlebar adjusts from super short to super tall, also with the push of a button.

It can accept a carseat using the carseat adaptor.

If you have any specific questions, just ask.

Oh, and CONGRATULATIONS!!

Thanks Jen:) !

I really need something that can take an infant seat
for those quick trips and I don't think Allie will be ready
to walk or sit on a Joovy (she'll be exactly 2). This looks like
it would work well for us and my DH will love the big wheels
and jogger feel! And I'm thinking to sell my Bug Cameleon to buy the new
Bee when it comes out in Sept. so having another stroller with air tires
will ease the transition for him:p . I'm so glad to hear it steers well, we've been pretty spoiled by the bug but it will be overkill for us with a 2 year old
and a newborn...I doubt we'd use it much at all.

I think you covered everything really well! Oh, how much room does it take up in the back of your van, can you fit another stroller in there?

Thanks again!

Oh Holly, where do I begin LOL!!

Well, I have NO complaints about this stroller.

The BEST THINGS about this stroller are:

AWESOME customer service

2 second, one step fold (folds very flat, slides in my husband small VW trunk easily, without taking off any wheels

Lock front wheels in 1 second

Very balanced so I can push and steer with one finger

High Resale Value

Supported seats (not hammock like like alot of jogging strollers) nice and pillowy

The sunshades

Adjustable Handlebar

Multi adjustable shoulder strap positions

Very narrow for shopping

Did I mention the Sunshades??

Here are some real life pictures of mine: http://www.imagestation.com/album/pictures.html?id=2094235825

We use ours everyday, especially for shopping. DH LOVES LOVES LOVES this stroller, and is so happy it was money well spent. It has changed our life, yes a stroller has changed our life. We researched for several months and the Baby Jogger just kept coming ahead for our particular lifestyle. There are other AWESOME double strollers like the BOB, and VALCO as well...

Let me know if you have anymore questions...I love talking strollers..tee hee

The push on this is *very* similar to the Bug... even with two kids in it!

I can easily fit another stroller in the back of my van with this. Actually, on Sunday I had the BJ and my Phil and Ted's E3V2 in the back of the van along with two tether straps that come from both outboard positions of the third row and go to the tailgate area of the van to hook them up. Neither stroller interfered with the tether straps at all. Does that give you a good idea of space? :D

The front wheels are set in narrower than the back wheels which makes it super easy to manouver in tight spaces.

The Joovy is really for children ages 2 1/2 up, so your right it probably won't work for you guys quite yet.

You wouldn't believe how many compliments I get on my BJ from MEN :thumbsup: They always comment on the big shiney wheels LOL!!

As far as taking up room, it doesn't take up much. In the back of my van "well" I have it, an umbrella, and a Quinny Zapp, We have a lot of room for more stuff as well back there... So it doesn't take up much room at all.

Thanks you two! Looks like there may be
a Baby Jogger in my near future:D .

I still can't get over the fold!
Great to hear they have good cs as well,
and I love the narrow for shopping bit - HUGE
IMHO:).
Ok, I'm off to check out Melissa's pictures....
Thanks again!
