BOB Trailer Revolution Duallie Twin Seat Jogger Stroller — 

My wife is a walker, in fact it is her primary social daily social interaction as she typically walks every weekday.

First, the BOB Revolution Duallie is so comfortable my little 18 month old girl constantly wants to ride in it. Thats very important to us since she has to spend over an hour in it daily. For walkers like my wife with two kids, the stroller also moves and turns so easily with its pivoting front wheel.

The BOB is great and we would reccomend it to anyone. As you can see I have a significant list of Pros and we like it very much. However, we do feel like this cost a lot for what we got. On the BOB strollers, they come with nothing but the seat, handle, wheel, brakes, and a basket. Everything else like snack trays, cup holders, etc you have to buy. After buying all that stuff, you can add $100 easily to your already expensive stroller.

The Car seat attachment specifically seems necessary as its the only way to get 2 snack trays for your kids. The car seat adapter only accepts certain model years of the Graco SafeSeat, Graco Snugride, Britax Companion, and Peg Perego Primo Viaggio. Once you have one of these models, it leans the baby forward in the car seat more than the car seat naturally would sit. This is a big problem with the Peg Perego (see my review on the Peg Perego car seat). Eventually, the car seat adaptor becomes dual snack trays for our two kids, which is nice.

The BOB is very easy to use. Its sun shade is great, its easy to move and fold up, and the brakes are easy to use. We like this stroller very much and would buy it again, although we know there are some downfalls to it. Ultimately, the comfort and ease of use are just that good compared to the other jogging strollers.
