Does this stroller work well in snowy weather? I'm looking for an all weather one. Thanks!

I live in warm and sunny Los Angeles so I may not be able to help you out here. However, I do take this stroller to the barn a lot -- and I noticed when the terrain is not smooth -- full of dirt, sand, etc., the wheels do get stuck because they're so tiny. From what I've been told, if you frequent a non-smooth terrain (like, snow), you may want to opt for the strollers with bigger wheels. That's my uneducated opinion. Good luck! :-)

I would get the Bob. We live in Colorado t high altitude and lots of snow. The Bob is what everyone has here. Expensive but worth every penny.

Not that great. I wouldn't take it on long walks in those conditions, but NO stroller does good in gravel :)

Hi. Did you two purchase the stroller? If so, I'd love to hear how you rate the stroller? Is it worth the price? Has it held up well over time? Any annoyances? Good customer service? Thanks!

First of all we love our stroller for our dog. I have ran some with and walked very briskly with it and found no problem. Our dog loves it. With the dog in it, it strolls great and easy to push and turn corners. Love it as I can put her little plastic sacks in to pick up accidents that she leaves, to put a drink for me and her.

I definitely recommend this stroller, its very maneuverable and is great for jogging, running and walking. It is also great on the street bumps. I LOVE this stroller and my daughter also...

I think you will find the four-wheel more stable. My Shih Tzu is getting along in years and has a heart murmur. Living on the third floor of the building, I must take him outdoors to relieve himself. The exertion caused him to cough, so I now transport him in the stroller. It's gone through rain, sleet snow and somewhat rough terrain several times daily for a year now and I have had no problems with it. I'd purchase the same one again if this one ever wore out.

I live in Ohio and have used this stroller during the winters with no problems. The nice thing about the bigger bike-like tires is that they give you a better ride. I think as long as you can get traction, your stroller will get it as well.

Thank you for your reply ... I have actually had this stroller for 11 months and I've been putting the Graco Snugride in the back the whole time. It is completely safe and snug. The weight of the carrier falls well beween the two sets of wheels and is extremely sturdy. I appreciate your warning of "looking like such and incompetant" ... but I would never, ever put my children in danger, even if I don't follow every rule to the letter.

That is exactly what I use it for. It's the only stroller I have! It's a little heavy compared to a cheap umbrella stroller, so the loading in and out of the car trunk is a little heavy (esp. if you're pregnant like me), but definitely doable. I use mine for errands as well as exercise walks (and very slow jogs) around my neighborhood. I take mine with me everywhere.

If the path is hard-packed it works great. If the dirt is loose or sandy it is difficult. This stroller sometimes has trouble with the wheels not adjusting as fast as they should when encountering a slight difference in elevation or a rough patch. You must back up to allow the wheels to go where they need to be. Being a larger stroller, it is necessary to use two hands and even then it can wear on your forearms some if the terrain is a little rough or hilly.

We live in the Green Bay, WI. area and while we no longer snowmobile we do have to blow snow and still shovel in sometimes blizzard conditions. Yes it works beautifully in windy conditions. My husband wears it anytime he has to be out in those conditions and he loves it.

This stroller is so well vented, and such good sun cover that I dont think that is an issue. We took the boys to Disney and used this stroller, and never had an issue. I LOVE this stroller, and would HIGHLY recommend it.

Yes! Love this stroller. So easy to open & close. Does great on rough terrain. So happy with this purchase! There weren't many reviews when I purchased but I took a chance knowing the BOB quality and am so happy!!

I do drive mine outdoors, but it is not very rugged. It is good on paved surfaces but not on gravel or bumpy yards. I have ridden mine in the rain but I wouldn't let it get too wet or it might damage it. I don't think it would be good in snow or on icy surfaces. Better for malls or paved surfaces.

Hello, in my opinion, it´s a great stroller. Seat is adjustable by a lace. As in school, it goes from 15 to 60 degrees moreless. The problem my wife saw on this stroller is that in the back, instead of flat "wall", it has a fabric with holes. Maybe for watching baby´s head or for refreshing when running.

Yes, I love this stroller. (I have only ever used this as a jogging/walking stroller, I have never used this as a bike trailer.) It's really easy to handle, and I like that it holds my 4'1", 60 lb son with ease.
