Sports reviews of Schwinn Free Wheeler Jogging Stroller (Red/Black)
Customer Review: LOVE IT!
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars
I purchased the Schwinn Free Wheeler Jogging Stroller mainly because it had rear wheel suspension and a swivel front wheel. I wanted easy maneuverability, but needed a stroller that would travel nicely on various terrains. I do not jog, but love to walk on trails. Since purchasing I've used it on a bumpy, rocky, trail through the woods (with the front wheel locked), on hard road, in grass, and plan on using it on gravel trails at a nearby state park. My 11-month-old really enjoys the variety of places I can take him with the Schinn. I've had no problem with the seat being too reclined, as other customers have stated. I adjusted the strap as far as it can go, and my baby is able to see very well. I really like the adjustable canapy for protection against sun and wind. The clear panel in the canapy is great because it allows me to see my baby. The adjustable handlebar is nice too, because I'm 5'3", and my husband is 6'4". Folding the stroller is easy, and it takes up no more room than our previous Baby Trend stroller (not a jogging stroller). The front wheel folds underneath for easy storage without having to remove it. Assembly was simple, but I had a little difficulty interpreting the instructions. The only thing I wish it had was a folding cover/lid on the parent tray, so items in there would not be in the open. Several friends have different jogging strollers, and I think mine far surpasses all of there's. I would highly recommend it!Customer Review: Excellent Stroller

First jogging stroller purchased for our 18 mo old so we can start going on trails easier. Quality of this stroller is very good - aluminum frame with good welds at the joints. The wheels are alloy rims and the tires are wider than the rim for good road contact as well as trail use. It runs very smoothly, no problems with the front wheel. Bottom basket is decent size, supported by a cantilever arm so I wouldn't load it up too much. The seat is good sized and to clarify what I had read in so many reviews, the seat DOES ADJUST UPRIGHT. Meaning, there is a pull strap on the back that allows the seat to go from almost reclining flat to about 75-80 degrees. Works fine for us, little one looks comfy in the seat. I think others have had problems possibly because their child was too small for the seat? Anyway, because I was concerned about this being stated so many times, the seat does sit upright. Also, the child sits deep back in the seat which may make it more difficult for the little ones to sit upright. I think it makes it safer if you're moving fast, basically the little one it surrounded on both sides by the frame and fabric quite well. The baby tray has a nice quick release so it can go on/off quickly too.
Overall great quality and great value.

I bought this stroller to replace my Combi-Ithru, but found that I needed to keep it. Although this Schwinn stroller has proven to live up to its reviews has one slight draw back. The recline position is a bit to far back for "mall strolling" making it a bit uncomfortable for the baby. Aside from that, the schwinn handles tough terrain like a Mercedes Benz or Cadillac. Its great! Baby loves the outdoors and the comfort of this stroller. It has ample room and keeps her protected from the elements. It steers like a dream! Grandma loves the fact that it turns on a dime. No extra effort needed. The big wheels and shock absorbers make it a smooth ride too for the sleeping baby. My daughter is 13 months old, 24lbs and 32 inches tall and still has plenty of roomto grow into. The stroller has great storage space below and the handle is height adjustable. The only thing I don't really like is the upmost recline position is a bit to far back and seems uncomfortable for baby, the reason why I kept my Combi I-thru. Aside from that, I recommend it to anyone taking long walks in multiple types of terrain! This one can handle it all. Happy Strolling.Customer Review: Perfect

I absolutely love this stroller. I bought it specifically for running and run with it 3-4 times a week going from 3-7 miles each time. I have had no problems with it. It was easy to assemble and my three-year-old enjoys riding in it. The sun shade can be unsnapped and adjusted for the sun and wind. My daughter falls asleep some days and is very comfortable. I have owned two other jogger strollers (both InStep) and this one has a much smoother ride and doesn't veer to a particular side. The adjustable handle is a nice feature and the basket on the bottom is great for carrying my drink and anything else. Having the ability to unlock the front wheel is a nice feature for when we want to walk around the neighborhood. I decided against buying a BOB or Baby Jogger only because my daughter will only be in this stroller for another year and a half. However, if she were younger and I was going to have more children I definitely would have made more of an investment and bought one of them if I were going to use it longer. This is a WONDERFUL stoller!Customer Review: Love this stroller!

I love this jogger stroller. I bought this stroller for walking and jogging around an urban area. It is perfect for just that. I am also 5'11" and my husband is 6' and we both can push this stroller very comfortably without any strain on our back or shoulders. It handles great and is easy to push on grass and bumpy sidewalks. I haven't tried pushing it on the beach yet, but I am sure it will handle great. I love the canopy, it protects my 4 month old from the sun with little effort on my part. My 4 month old seems to really like the seat and doesn't complain at all when we go for a ride. I love that the wheel can be changed from swivel to jogging with just a little switch. It is a little bulky but I think most jogger strollers are. I have an SUV and have no problem storing it in the back. But I do recommend using a regular stroller for mall shopping and etc. and using this one just for jogging or walking. I think it would be a pain to push through a store. It is definitely worth the price. I am a very happy customer.
