Love to listen to music when you run but worry about not hearing your child? Both of you can run to your favorite tunes with Music on the Move parent tray. You just have to attach your own portable audio electronics, like iPod and go. Jogging enthusiasts will appreciate its height-adjustable handle to maintain good running form and the unique rear disc brake makes for quick stops. And unlike many jogging strollers when you’re done exercising, the stroller folds (more…)

I’m a first time mom and this is the first jogging stroller my husband and I purchased. We liked it even before our daughter was born! We tried it out at the store and even though it’s big it’s a comfortable ride.
PROS: I like the style. Love the five harness strap. Great reclining position although my one-year-old isn’t interested in this feature. Love the adjustable handle to keep my jogging/running form. Enjoy the 16″ bicycle tires which make it fun for my daughter to go over bumps, ruts and pot holes with little disturbance. Great shocks! Wonderful storage below that’s easy to access. Like that it’s a front locked tire since I only use this jogger for jogging. I don’t take it to the mall or for shopping — just out on the trail. Love all the extra storage with the side pockets and pockets near the handle. Great hand brake and very useful for the downhill terrain. Wonderful foot brake, easy to use and keeps the stroller in place. I don’t use the music player I keep my wallet, cell phone and keys in that compartment. Easy to lock.
CONS: A little on the heavy side. I’m able to put it in the back of our truck and bring it up and down our front steps, but it’s definitely not a lightweight stroller. Canvas doesn’t extend far enough out to keep the sun out of my daughter’s eyes, but I do have her wear a wide brim hat. Folds up relatively easily but it’s not all that small. It does take up space even when folded but this isn’t a huge problem for us. This is strictly a jogging stroller and not a stroller for around town. It’s too big and is difficult to maneuver in small spaces. Having said that I have no trouble with it on the trail and control it with one hand for the most part.
Overall I’m pleased with this stroller. My daughter is safe and comfortable inside and she often sleeps halfway through my morning jogs even when I do go over bumpy terrain. I think it was a great purchase for our money. We bought it at the first of the year and it was on sale so that was a good thing budget-wise for us. I’m very satisfied with the Jeep Overland jogger.
