JOGGING STROLLERS

BASIC FEATURES
folding and stowing

Collapsing in your arms: Modern manufacturers employ a variety of innovative folding mechanisms to make their jogging strollers more compact when collapsed. To make the jogging stroller frame maximally compact you generally have to remove the large pneumatic wheels, which should quick-release. One thing to consider: there are many parents that report initial frustration with the folding mechanism. So save yourself some time and frustration and carefully read the instructions! Lastly, a nice added feature: a locking device that secures the stroller once it's folded down.

Packing it in: Even if your jogging stroller does fold down easily, that doesn't guarantee it will be as compact as you'd like-especially if you have a smaller vehicle or shoe box apartment. Most jogging strollers are simply too bulky for the back of a Geo Metro-especially if you don't remove the wheels. Whatever your situation, you'll want to ensure you have enough space to stow your jogging stroller before your purchase.
