Jeep Overland - Great Value For Serious Joggers, And The Best Option For The Petite

by joyfulgirl91 Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, May 10 '06
Pros: great value, nice extra features, good quality materials, handle adjusts for tall or short parents
Cons: heavy, huge, inefficient fold, not an all-purpose stroller
I've always considered running a solitary sport. My friends and family were surprised I did not register for a jogging stroller while pregnant, but fellow runners understood completely. Running is something I do alone. Training for an event or ...

Pros: adjustable handle and canopy, nice handling, Music on the Move, weather shield, tons of storage

Just to be the mom that ran 1000 miles behind my Jeep Overland stroller. Cheesy, I know, but it’s true! I purchased this jogging stroller at the end of last summer based upon a certain Joyf ulgirl’s review. ...

by buehlerduo , Apr 27 '05
Pros: Music capability, stylish, comfortable for baby and I, child and parent cup holders, many pockets

one word tom describe this stroller, "cool"
by aphoextra ,Oct 23 '06
Pros: great value, nice extra features, good quality materials
Cons: Can't think of any!
We owned another regular all purpose stroller, but it was awkward to take on walks. Picking up this jogging stroller was a brilliant move on my part. I'm 6'4", and my wife is 5'9", and this is easy for either one of us to use. The other stroller made me bend over bang my feet against the back of it while walking.

It folds up nicely, though it is quite large and takes up a lot of space while traveling. It's worth it. Our 9-mo old loves it too, and the tray in front is a great place for her to keep some toys. She seems very comfortable in it.

We've never even used the speakers built in, but I'm sure that's a cool feature when used!

The fixed front wheel takes getting used to and is a pain, but is something you just have to deal with.

Jeep Overland stroller, Only good at high speed
by mistieve ,Nov 17 '06
Pros: Hand brake, foot stop, many small outer pockets, parent tray and child tray, adjustable handles,
Cons: Difficult turning, storage underneath inaccessible, front wheel locked, bad speaker quality, seat not easily adjustable
The stroller looks very nice and has a lot of nice features but doesn't turn well except at higher speeds, the storage underneath doesn't fold down like other strollers which means you can't easily access it, especially when child is completely reclined. The seat reclines but only with a strap that isn't easy to let out and take in sometimes. The quality of the speakers was shoddy. It produced almost no sound. In order to hear the speakers we had to have our ears right next to the speaker.

We purchased the stroller because we liked the harness and hand brake. The hand brake is great. The harness leaves a little to be desired. The clip on it is a bit flimsy.

We had the misfortune to have had the stroller stolen and with this opportunity we will purchase something else.

by gt_sports ,Aug 30 '06
Pros: Easy to push, comfortable for child, safe, large wheels work well in all terrain
Cons: A bit heavy, takes us space in vehicle even when folded. Fixed front wheel.

Love it - would recommend to others
by johnnymac22 ,May 22 '06
Pros: Light, very easy to use.
Cons: Mmmm. Can't think of any!
We found it better than most others we brought having 3 kids. Its very easy to put into the car and come apart with ease. Something you need in the wet.

I'm happy with this stroller
by cindilh ,Aug 09 '05
Pros: Great canopy, child snack tray & parent tray, and basket storage.
Cons: Stroller is heavy, seat back not eay to adjust
This is my second jogging stroller (I was very unhappy with the first one ... an AlloBaby with swivel wheel) and I am very pleased with it so far. My main reason for ordering this stroller was the adjustable canopy. I was also insistent that I get one with a child snack try - it's really the only way to keep my 13 month old busy on our walks. Both of these features are excellent, and the large basket and multiple pockets on the sides and back of the stroller are an added bonus. As with all joggers with a stationery front wheel, it's a little hard to turn, but you do get used to it. Also - it is a bit heavy to get in and out of car (not unlike other joggers, so no big surprise there). I would definitely recommend purchasing this stroller.
