BOB Revolution Flex Review
Ease Of Folding
The BOB stroller folds with ease to help you conveniently store it or carry it. To fold the stroller, you need two hands and simple four steps to get the job done. You can also choose to fold the stroller with the dual release levers on the top left and then pull the handle. Unfolding the stroller is also a simple task that only requires two steps. You still need to use two hands when unfolding it.
Braking System
A good stroller should guarantee you and the baby safe. This is why the BOB 2016 Revolution FLEX Stroller is designed with single-action brakes that are very easy to use. When parents are using the stroller, it is easy to slow down to overcome obstacles on your way, and this provides very safe rides knowing that you have reliable stopping power.
Storage
Sometimes when you are taking a ride with your little one, there are some essentials that you cannot leave behind such as diaper bags, phones, keys, drinks, snacks, and other accessories. This stroller provides you with large under-seat storage, and you can easily access it from the sides and back. It doesn’t have front access. The basket is large enough to fit large a diaper bag with a maximum storage weight of 10 pounds.
Maneuverability
There is a swiveling front wheel that makes it easy to maneuver tight turns easily. The wheel locks forward to bring about stability when you are jogging or using the stroller in relatively tough terrains. The stroller is also designed with air-filled tires on high-impact polymer wheels that provide smooth rides either on or off-road.
Adjustable Padded Handlebars
Apart from keeping your baby comfortable, the stroller should also ensure that the parent also feels comfortable when riding. This stroller features padded handlebars that provide a comfortable grip. It also offers nine positions adjustment making it suitable for parts of all heights. Both short and tall parents can adjust the handlebars to suit their height and make riding the best experience.
Large Canopy
We compared the canopy of the stroller with other models on the market, and this one has the largest canopy. It protects your baby from the harmful ultra-violet rays of the sun by creating a perfect sunshade. It also has a peek-a-boo window and additional ventilation when the back is reclined, and this provides a nice airflow during hot days.
Harness
The stroller is designed with a 5-point harness that is easy to put, remove and adjust. As compared to other strollers, this model has red pull rings on the straps of the harness that makes it very easy to snug the harness. It also has a buckle that snaps together and opens easily.
Seat
You should always find out how comfortable the seat of a stroller is before you buy. This ensures that the baby gets a very comfortable seating position during rides. It is made with a padded leg rest and a large footrest with a durable rubberized fabric. As compared to other previous models, the seat reclines very easily with just a push of a button.
Additionally, when it comes to car seat compatibility, BOB 2016 Revolution FLEX Stroller doesn’t arrive with any compatible car seat. However, you can purchase a car seat adapter frame to fit a car seat perfectly.
Assembly
I have tested a wide range of strollers to determine their ease of assembly and BOB is one of the easiest strollers to put together. Assembling the stroller only takes five minutes and you good for the road. All you require is a screwdriver and following the instructions provided in the manual. Even if you have never assembled one before, it will take very little time and effort to assemble the BOB stroller.
