The BOB Revolution SE is a high quality versatile stroller, perfect for trips to the shops but can also handle the rigours of running on both smooth and rough terrain. The design of the BOB Revolution SE stroller has been updated and enhanced in 2011 and now has a new high tech fabric with more support in the reclining seat, a new accessory bar that will accommodate the car seat adapter or snack tray accessories, a better way to adjust the canopy coverage, a new wrist strap and the suspension system is also a bit different.
The tires on the BOB Revolution SE are sturdy, rugged, rubber and air-filled meaning it will charge through whatever you may throw at it from trails to rocks to playground mulch and grass. The BOB Revolution SE stroller sports 16” rear tires and a 12” front wheel. The front wheel gives you the best of both worlds – it swivels for maximum manoeuvrability in tight spaces as well as has the ability to lock straight for jogging or when the terrain gets bumpy. On top of that, the front wheel also features a quick adjusting tracking system that will always keep you rolling straight ahead. For added saftey there is also a one-step brake bar to lock the back wheels of the stroller in place.
The manoeuvrability of the BOB Revolution SE is amazing. The stroller feels as if it is super lightweight and turns easily with just one hand, without the need to wrestle with it like some other strollers. When running it barely feels like you are pushing anything at all. Also, the ride afforded by the BOB Revolution is ultra smooth even on bumpy ground due to the highest quality state-of-the-art adjustable suspension system that can be adjusted with ease between positions by the flipping of a lever.
The seat is quite wide and can accommodate a child up to 70 lbs. Our 4 year old who is about 40” tall can fit comfortably in the seat. However it should be noted that with the shorter seatback, very tall children will touch the canopy with their head before they become too heavy for the stroller. The BOB Revolution SE seat is made of a high tech poly weave fabric with water repellent coating and has an infinite recline strap that allows the seat to recline from upright to about half-way back (approx 125deg) and anywhere in between rather than being limited to two predetermined positions. Since the seat doesn’t recline flat, it is not really suitable for newborns unless you are using the car seat adapter, so i would recommend this is for children 6+ months.
An accessory adapter has been built into the seat of the BOB Revolution SE stroller. This allows for easy integration with the snack tray or infant car seat adapter which are sold separately. Knowing that BOB are quite innovative, additional accessories for the adapter will be forthcoming in the future i’m sure!
The handlebar is 40” from the ground and definitely far enough from the frame and undercarriage storage that it will not impede the walking or running action of even the tallest parent. The handlebar also features a wrist strap for extra safety if running. The BOB Revolution SE canopy is HUGE and will more than cover your child without the need for any canopy extensions. The canopy also has a large viewing window which allows you to keep an eye on your little one, and there is also a pocket on the top of the canopy to tuck the cover into if you’d like to keep the peeking window open.
Storage of all you need for any outing is no problem with the BOB Revolution SE stroller. Two mesh pockets in the seat will hold your child’s snacks, toys or sippy cups. A large mesh pocket on the back of the seat will hold tons of parent or baby essentials that you need to access quickly. And the large basket underneath will hold your belongings and/or diaper bag with room to spare.
In order to fold and store the BOB Revolution SE it is just a simple matter of lifting the two levers on the handlebar and pushing the handle forward, then grabbing the red handle under the seat and down he goes – simple as that! The stroller is compact enough to store and transport easily in the trunk of most vehicles. If space is an issue, the wheels can be removed via quick release clips in a flash.
If you are looking for a sturdy, well-built BOB stroller with excellent everyday manoeuvrability with the flexibility to turn it into a running stroller in an instant, a fabulous canopy and storage options with adjustable suspension giving an ultra smooth ride, look no further than the BOB Revolution SE.
