I have the baby trend RANGE jogger! I'm a hiker and also pregnant. I live in the middle of Alabama. There are hills, rocks galore, water, and very rough terrain. When I tell you I've put this stroller to the test, I'm not exaggerating. Lol. It's great!!!! Plus, it cleans up nice for when we go into town.
@Anna wow something that isn’t $700! Thanks for the rec. Looking at photos of it, it looks like you can flip the seat to back face? Or is that only possible with baby trend infant car seat?
@Michelle daaaaang look at those wheels!! Does this one reverse face? My LO is only 11 weeks so still working on head control
It does not reverse face. However, it does recline. I've been putting my LO in it since she was about 6 weeks old. I just put one of those rainbow shaped head cushion in it. :)
It is reverse face for the smaller babies. But not once they get to be riding in the big seat.
@Mechell woo! I think this might be the one I go with
@Anna Nice! Even without buying the infant car seat?

This is the one I have the car seat is included and used as the rear facing infant seat until baby is old enough to sit up on their own. Then they move to the toddler seat and are forward facing. Unfortunately, you can't use it for an infant without using the car seat.
@Amanda I love it. I was looking for a double running stroller that good quality and could handle all terrain. And wasn't insanely expensive like BOB strollers. I came across this in the double, tried it, and was shocked at how good it was for the price!
@Amanda the Chicco Tre is my absolute favorite and a beast of an all terrain running stroller. But it's not inexpensive, though the BOB strollers were still over $200 more. We were gifted the Tre from our registry when preggo with our first. After our second, I wanted it in a double but they don't have one. So I ended up with the Baby Trend and it's great.
I didn’t use a stroller at all and walked endless miles. Now I hike all the time too, and she is 2. Baby carriers are more convenient. But… I understand I’m in the minority by not using a stroller. Plus, my girl didn’t like them.
@Tatia ugh I want this to be me so bad. I’m 11 weeks pp and my back is still sooo weak. I can walk like 10-20 ish minutes with him before I need a break
@Tatia returning back to this to ask you what carrier you prefer hiking with??
I have the baby trend expedition jogger! We take that one all over! Works great on dirt and grass and gravel.
