(More customer reviews)Well this has been another one of many items that I researched to no end. So here is my Opinion.We have a 2 1/2 and a new one on the way. First of all, I really wanted to get this stroller because of all the little features and slightly smaller in length. It was this or a BOB Stride. I read all the reviews on BOB, which are always far better than all other strollers. Just search the stroller category for double stroller here on Amazon. Anyway the reviews for the Bumbleride stroller looked good considering it is a new stroller for 2009.So we went down to look at the Bumbleride and they had the BOB Stride there too.After looking at the two side by side here is what I liked about the Bumbleride; the seats laid almost flat, the cool styling and colors, the lower storage was a bit bigger and easier to get to and it was much shorter front to back. Here is what is did not like; the seat adjustment was a little difficult with our daughter in it, not quite as easy to push as the BOB, the suspension was just a rubber bushing and not very much give, once folded the latches that hold it closed latch, but if try to lift it using the handle the latches pop off and the stroller starts to unfold, which limits you to where you can grab the stroller when putting it in a vehicle, Not good. Every time I made an adjustment whether it was the adjustable handle or the leg rest, I could not get over how cheap it felt. After looking closely at it I noticed that there was so much plastic on this thing. I went to set the parking brake and I felt as if I was going to snap it off at some point. Where the rear wheels connect to the frame and where the suspension sits, is all plastic. This is a major stress point and it is plastic?? The wheels are plastic also. As much as I wanted to convince my wife to get the Bumbleride, I couldn't even convince myself. I don't mind spending this kind of money on a product, but quality has to come before anything else. I refuse to pay almost $700 for a stroller that is full of plastic. I think Bumbleride needs to lower their profit margin and start using more light weight metal. We ended up getting the BOB. It was like comparing a bike from Toys R Us to a bike from a pro bike shop. I think you get the picture. I Know you Bumbleride owners will not like my assessment, but I really wanted it to go the other way. Hey just go and compare the Bumbleride to a BOB and you will see, or just take close look at a Bumbleride construction and decide for yourself. Onee more thing the bob is 30.8" wide and this is 29.5" that is only 1.3" wider. Like I said you decide.
If you think a review about comparing quality and looking at products before buying is not helpful, then maybe you should not be reading this. Yes, Metal it stronger than plastic. :)
