Wonderful Stroller!
10/3/2008
Absolutely awesome stroller. My husband and I run with this stroller practically everyday and our 7 month old son loves it. I was a little worried about the buckle being uncomfortable but my son doesn't seem to mind and will sit in it for over an hour. He seems to enjoy the running a lot more than walking!

The stroller was shipped promptly and was fairly easy to put together. The handle had a few little tears which was disappointing but we've had it for over a month and the tears have not gotten any bigger. I really like the yellow lining because it is a bit reflective and the swivel wheel is amazing. I am so glad that I did not buy a cheaper stroller WITHOUT the swivel wheel because it makes manueuvering that much easier. I would buy this stroller again!

Good Stroller for the Price
9/24/2008
I got this stroller after looking for a single jogger/all-terrain stroller for a while. I had a double InStep for years but only needed a single one now.

It was very easy to put together. I know there were some reviews that had issues with the front tire but, it works just like any standard quick release tire that would be on a decent bicycle.

I got the chocolate/blue color one and I will say the color looked nicer online. Also the handle did come a little scratched up but it is not worth returning it for something so minor when it will probably end up getting like that anyways.

My old stroller was a fixed wheel so the swivel was a little strange at first. I think it is best to lock the wheel as fixed if you are going to be walking long distances at a quick pace like on a trail. However, if you are indoors or need to do a lot of turning, set it to swivel. So far it seems fine. My toddler seems to enjoy it.

I do wish they had a hand break and a deeper drink holder in the parent console.

Does what I need it to do.
9/21/2008
I was looking for a stroller that I could jog behind. I almost bought the Jeep stroller because of the built-in MP3 speakers. But at the end of one of the reviews, a person talked about the locked front wheel that couldn't swivel on the Jeep. Didn't understand the locked wheel concept until after I got the Safari Swivel, which can lock for jogging and swivel for regular use. Locking the wheel while jogging does make the stroller more stable. As you jog, you can have a tendency to move side to side. If the motion is pronounced enough, a swivel front will start to move left or right. The effect is the stroller can actually start turning left or right on you while jogging. Locking the front wheel keeps the stroller going straight as an arrow. The problem with a permanently locked wheel is you can't really use it for anything else (back up stroller) unless you get into the habit of lifting the front wheels up to turn.

The Safri Swivel can turn on a dime when the front wheel is unlocked. However, THIS STROLLER IS BULKY. I wouldn't use it for my primary stroller. I have a truck, so I just throw it in the back. I think it will fit in my wife's car, but we haven't tried because the regular stroller is in her car.

I leave it in the garage to jog behind, and throw it in the back of the truck if my wife is gone and need a stroller. It works well that way. Wouldn't use it any other way. Hope this helps.

Great stroller for the money
8/28/2008
This was a great stroller for the money. It is very light weight and very mobile with a fixed or moving front wheel. Our daughter loves it and seems very comfortable in it. It folds up for transport.

Wobbly POS
8/4/2008
We got one of these five months ago. At first it seemed fine. After a couple months the frame loosened up. It's all rivets in plastic and aluminum, so there's no way to tighten anything. Now it's wobbly. With all the wheels locked it sways back and forth due to the flex in the frame. The front swivel wheel is worthless, because it shimmies and shakes the whole stroller like a paint shaker if it's not in the locked (non-swivelling) position. What a waste of money...

Here's an update. After a week InStep answered my e-mail, and they advised me that I should tighten the steering/swivel head. Remove the foot rest (four Phillips screws), and there's a nut on top of the bolt that holds the front wheel's swivel head. It's just a nylon "locking" nut. Too tight, and the front wheel won't turn. Too loose, and the front wheel wobbles like mad. Why they didn't spend 10?? more for a castle nut and cotter pin, or why they don't mention this in the "troubleshooting" section of the owner's manual, I don't know.

Even without the front wheel shimmying like nuts, the stroller is still wobbly and excessively flexy. We've got a $600 Hartan that put up with a lot of hard use and it's still as solid as a vault. The InStep is simply cheap.
