Sports reviews of Schwinn Free Wheeler ST Double Jogging Stroller (Yellow/Grey)Customer Review: Rolls like a dream! Sport shop rating: 5 Stars
This is a great stroller! It feels like a luxury stroller. It moves incredibly easy, the swivel wheel is very smooth, and locks in place to run with safely. The wheels are large and wide for great stability. The included rain/wind shield is a nice touch and covers the children completely. The handle adjusts quickly and easily to accommodate any height, I am 6'4" and it could suit someone even a few inches taller. Some reviews have complained about the seat heights. The back part of the seat is only 17.5" but the seat pad over the back goes up to 20" and it's not uncomfortable for our very tall daughter, she still has head room beneath the canopy. The only complaint we have is the parent console that hangs off of the handle just swings and when the handle is adjusted it sits at an angle potentially tipping out a drink or other contents of the console. Overall though, we are extremely pleased.
Customer Review: We LOVE it! Sport shop rating: 5 Stars
We have had the yellow version of this double jogging stroller for almost a month now and we LOVE it! We have two small children (8 months & 2 yrs) and they enjoy riding in it. We chose this stroller to buy because it was the best value of the double jogging strollers that had a swivel wheel in the front. It is MUCH easier to push and turn than the Graco Duo Glider that we previously had. We have used it on concrete, grass, and gravel. The little bag that attaches to the handlebar is very handy. I'm able to fit keys, cell phone, Ipod, and sippy cups in it. The only negetive comment that I have about the stroller is that when it is collapsed down, it only folds in half so it is pretty bulky. All in all, we will never regret this purchase! LOVE it!
Customer Review: LOVE IT Sport shop rating: 4 Stars
I had been waiting to get my double jogging stroller since my 3rd child was born. I read all the reviews, compared all the brands and then found out about Amazon.com. I made my decision, went to amazon and got the stroller I wanted for over 50%off. This stroller is absolutely wonderful. The seats are great for all my ages, 4,2, and 6 months. They all love to ride and with the swival wheel, anyone can push it easily!! I walk, run and even rollar blade with my stroller. It actually feels like it is pulling me along. The storage basket underneath holds my big diaper/purse bag easily. The wheels go over all types of terrain without any trouble. The sun shield works great and even has an extra plastic pull down shield if it rains and it completely covers the kids.
Dislikes/problems?? Nothing really.
I didn't like that the kids didn't have a snack tray at first, but it has been fine. They have a little strap for drinks and it probably promotes better health without the sncaks while working out? They get a banana when we get done now instead.
I have a soft small basket for keys, water bottle and that works okay.
We did have a samll problem. When we recieved the item there was a small tear in the lining. We called and they gave us two very easy options. Either they would send us a whole new stroller..wow! Or we could just get the seat replaced. Either one was VERY generous!!! It came two days later and worked out great.
So really no true dislikes or problems, LOVE IT, LOVE IT. I would recommend all who are interested should buy this one and USE IT. It is easy, great work out helper and really FUN! No excuse not to at least go out for that walk everyday.
Oh, remember it is a double, so even I was surprised. It barely fits through the doorway, will not fit down any isle in Jc Penny:) It turns on a dime though. It folds nicely but does take up over half of the Sienna van back end still.
I couldn't ask for anything better though and for that price and ease of order, shipping, and even replacement. Go for it!!!
Customer Review: Good double stroller Sport shop rating: 4 Stars
We had the single jogger, same stroller and we absolutely love it. When my second daughter was born, we went out and purchased this one.
Pros -
~Solid stroller, rides like a dream compared to those plastic Gracco infant/toddler style strollers
~Compact for traveling, it folds down almost flat and you can take all three wheels right off with no tools to take along with you
~Parent "tray", they have a little bag on the handlebars that I find very useful for holding drinks, sunblock, etc.
~Adjustable height handle, great for my wife and I since we are different heights
~each side can recline at different positions, my 2 year old's sits up high and my 6 month old lies almost flat
Cons -
~The canopy provides good coverage and is movable, but compared to the single stroller canopy we have, it is a bit smaller. You might want to consider one of those kiddopotomus canopy extender things.
~No child snack tray (if that's important to you)
~Climbing in and out - not the best little platform for the kids getting in and out, but my 2 year old manages
~the straps are a bit of a pain to adjust
Overall, I would definitely buy this again and recommend to a friend. Let's face it, the BOB is the best in the market if money is no object but if money is even a thought, go for this one.
Customer Review: Double Jogging Stroller Sport shop rating: 4 Stars
Great stroller overall, and fast shipping. I received it within four days. Easy to assemble. A bit frustrating though since a plastic piece that locks the front wheel was broken. I had to call the manufacturer and received a replacement after a few weeks due to the part being on backorder. I had no problem with the bar hurting my kids when they sit in it. If you have a taller child you easily see that the design works. It supports their neck really well and I had no complaints about it being uncomfortable from them. Overall a great purchase except not too happy about the color. It's not as bright and vivid as in the pictures. I would have rather paid more to get the red or blue version instead.
