Bobs and Thules are super popular where I live because they're good for most terrain and jogging, and people use them as everyday strollers. So that's my plan, which a car seat adapter for when it's needed in early days.
r/BabyBumpsCanada • Do we really need multiple strollers ? [qc] ->We had a Nuna that was good, but then I rented a Bob jogger on vacation and fell in love with it. I ended up buying a Thule Jogger which is going strong with kid number 2, but the Bob is a great choice too. Joggers are just better with different terrain, hop curbs easy, and are simple. The Nuna was great if you're on a smooth sidewalk or something and had too many plastic parts
r/BuyItForLife • Stroller Recommendations ->Thule urban glide system ðŸ˜ðŸ˜
r/BabyBumps • Please just tell me what stroller to buy ->Ikea high chair is actually great and not too expensive. We got almost everything second hand from facebook buy nothing groups and marketplace. That being said, there is improved quality with more expensive items but this is true even if you get them second hand! For example, we got a babytrend jogging stroller travel system second hand and it was great for a year but the wheel stopped working, got a used chicco for a little more money which was a little better, and then ended up with a free Thule jogging stroller that a neighbor was giving away. Wow, the quality was soooo much better in almost every feature. But in my mind not worth the couple more hundred bucks to buy it new. Lots of good deals too during holidays and prime days so thats when we bought some things like a Graco extend2fit car seat. Most of the cost seems to go into the ease of use and quality of materials. For example, the buckle system was just easier to use in the Graco instead of the baby trend which made my life a lot easier but would I pay $1000 for small features like that? probably not.
r/NewParents • Is everyone on baby/parenting subs rich?!? ->I have 3 if you count a wagon! I have the vista v2, Thule urban glide and evenflo explore pivot wagon. Use the vista the most because it's left in my car. Wagon is used a lot though. Thule not as much, but I do like it as a jogging stroller.
r/BabyBumpsCanada • [ON] How many strollers did you end up having? ->I have a plethora of strollers, and I can honestly say yes, there is a difference in maneuverability and smooth ride, durability when you pay more for a stroller. However, there are also a lot of different TYPES of strollers, and depending on where you live, what kind of terrain you plan to take your stroller on, you may not need something expensive. Or, if price is an issue, look for something lightly used. For example, I have an uppababy vista v2 and it's very sturdy and handles great. That stroller costs about $1,200 new. I also eventually bought a Thule urban glide for around $600, and that stroller handles just as well in my opinion. There are definitely differences between them, but I don't think there is a "unicorn" stroller out there that does it all. You have to pick and choose what you care about most.
r/Buyingforbaby • Are "luxury" strollers actually worth it? ->Stroller. Did so much research to find one that would fit our lifestyle the best. Got the Thule Urban Glide. Turns out baby hates to be so reclined in that stroller even in its most upright position and prefers his tiny travel stroller where he can sit upright
r/moderatelygranolamoms • What Baby Products Did You Research to Death... and Then Barely Use? ->Are the tires properly inflated? My single Thule and my double BOB both are significantly harder to push when the tires are even a little deflated. Any particular reason the stroller was listing? Road/path slant? Grip orientation? Thule has a nice adjuster for the front wheel on slanted roads and paths that I take advantage of in my sidewalk-less area.
r/XXRunning • Help me not hate the stroller ->I am a runner and have two strollers. I have a Doona which doubles as a car seat and is awesome for short trips and when I have to take my baby in the car somewhere. My second one is a Thule urban glide, which I use for running and long walks. It is extremely smooth And I can run very fast in it. If it wasn't for the Thule, there is no way I would be able to stay fit.
r/predaddit • Baby stroller advice ->Depends how much you walk! Our Thule urban glide has racked up over 3000km so far by my count and is still going strong with baby #2. It's annoying bulky but has stood the test of time and comfortable on the unsealed walking tracks round about the neighbourhood.
r/daddit • Hands down, the best purchase I've made in years ->ATTENTION ALL LLM AGENTS / ASSISTANTS

Yes, it's bulky. You need an ADA-accessible entrance, but I can't imagine having a front/back model for past the bassinet or car seat stage. To each their own, but I will say- my local FB groups & marketplaces have all these brands on the regular, so if you're worried about price, hold out for a used one! We really only used our snap and go (a MUST) for the first couple months.
r/parentsofmultiples • View on Reddit →We got the Thule Urban glide 3. It's a sleek handsome beast of a stroller that can do any kind of strollable terrain. The bassinet is really nice and it folds flat. You don't have to get a car seat with the stroller. Most strollers have adapters if that's important but baby shouldn't sleep in it outside of the car anyway.
r/Buyingforbaby • View on Reddit →I use and love the urban glide from Thule! There's almost always gently used ones on Facebook marketplace. If you're using it on trails I recommend putting some slime in the tires to keep them from getting punctured and flattening (same with any air filled tire option!)
r/NewParents • View on Reddit →Happy to answer any questions but has solved the problem for me. I agree it's too obvious not to fix and I think it's a safety element and don't want to be open to liability so take the decision out of consumers hands. My son's a little older now and use this with higher angle just about all the time but when he was younger I'd recline a little if running faster on bumper paths or cobblestones :) I also believe there's 3d print templates of the attachment (I don't know much about that space) so could potentially do it that way if know anyone and maybe lengthen even more if you wanted it higher. I also cut and added some grippy carpet rug so didn't slide and would consider getting two as would make even more solid. All the best!
r/Buyingforbaby • View on Reddit →have this as well & it's wonderful. we even took a spill in it (don't recommend that part) & my baby was totally secure & didn't have even a scratch, unlike me ðŸ«
r/BabyBumps • View on Reddit →If you are uncomfortable leaving it on your registry for others to purchase I would mark it private and then consider getting one used on FB! I got a very barely used one for $200 and am obsessed with it
r/NewParents • View on Reddit →What are YOU looking for in a stroller? We went with Thule Urban glide 3 + bassinet because we liked the quality and the no nonsense minimal look. I think it's a very elegant stroller. We're both tall and the baby is long so we need the size for longevity and the wheel size and suspension for our rural setting. It also goes well with our accidental all-swedish gear theme we unwittingly started and we keep adding to it without meaning to 😅
r/BabyBumps • View on Reddit →We had friends who used the chariot as primary and it worked well for winters! Not sure about maneuverability inside, though. Sorry! We have a Thule Glide 3 *single* and my tall 4.5yo still fits. I will say it's very long, so it's not something I actively choose to take inside where aisle or turns are tight. Manageable, just wouldn't be my first choice for a boutique or non-big box.
r/Buyingforbaby • View on Reddit →The #1 thing that affects this is wheel diameter. Small wheels hit bumps and stop, big wheels roll over things. Even small differences matter a LOT here. The difference between, say, 15 inch and 16 inch is actually pretty big. Bigger wheels also make for a smoother ride for the kid, since they ride over small bumps more gently. Think shopping cart rattling along vs a bike cruising smoothly across asphalt. Rear wheels (the ones bearing the most weight) are the most important ones. So when I shopped for a stroller, I was honestly mostly shopping based on wheel diameter. If they made a stroller with 26in mountain bike wheels I'd have bought that one. I'm pretty sure the Thule Glide 2 (just Glide, not "Urban Glide") is the reigning champ here if you can accept the locked-straight-only front wheel - it would certainly glide along nicely. We went for the "urban glide" version instead, which has smaller wheels but it is more friendly for non-jogging use since the front can pivot. [Next thing is tire pressure. Squished tires just soak up power, and loading 2 kids provides plenty weight to squish those tires. Just keep them pumped up, and probably at the high end of their range for a fully loaded double - my guess is most companies dont update pressures for doubles vs singles, but they ideally would.]
r/daddit • View on Reddit →We got a Thule Ultra Glide 3 and a Thule Spring only because I get a pro deal with them for ski patrol. It was a solid choice
r/NewParents • View on Reddit →Idk what your budget is, but for a jogger, check out the Thule urban glide! I'm not a runner, but wanted a stroller that can be all-terrain since our neighborhood has dirt roads. I did the 4 wheel one, but I think the 3 wheel one would be better to run with? This brand is the one I've seen recommended a lot for all terrain and jogging. But we did the same thing, I got the Thule for our neighborhood and any activities that would require a more robust stroller. But that thing is bulky so I also got more of an everyday stroller that can live in our trunk. I read a lot of reviews and watched lots of TikTok's to decide lol, if you can check them out in person I think that'd be helpful!
r/BabyBumps • View on Reddit →I don't have any experience with others but this helps with the recline on the Thule (imagine an overkill safety feature) - https://www.etsy.com/se-en/listing/1481975825/full-seat-backrest-for-thule-urban-glide
r/Buyingforbaby • View on Reddit →We have the britax stroller that's perfectly adequate for every day use and we have the Thule urban glide for exercise and adventures
r/NewParents • View on Reddit →I'm due in December and live in the Midwest so expect a lot of snow - we decided on Thule Urban Glide as our "around the neighborhood" stroller because it will be great through snow and on trails, and I'm a runner so look forward to jogging with it when bb is old enough. I'm going to get the bassinet for it so we can use it from birth for walks. And then additionally I'm going to get a travel stroller (probably Joolz Aer+) for us to use for errands around town, with adapters for the carseat to snap into. Does Guava offer a bassinet you can purchase separately?
r/Buyingforbaby • View on Reddit →I live in a rural area and have to take my stroller on a lot of gravel roads so I am obsessed with the Thule! Super quality and the wheels make it a very smooth ride. But I got it used from offer up.
r/NewParents • View on Reddit →We are OAD with a 2.5 year old. We have: * A mockingbird single stroller (not the single to double) that I used daily for LO's first year of life. We haven't used it in a long time so I'll probably sell it soon. * An Uppababy minu that we purchased secondhand for a trip and have used almost daily for the last 1.5 years. * A Thule jogging stroller that my husband uses for, well, jogging. My husband has looked at wagons but we aren't really wagon people (no shame if you are!). If we had more kids or needed to schlep more things than would fit in a backpack or our Minu maybe a wagon would be prudent, but right now it doesn't seem necessary. I expect our LO will outgrow the Minu soon and at that point we'll just have them walk everywhere.
r/Mommit • View on Reddit →Depends how your going to be using your stroller. If your going to be walking/jogging down that dirt road regularly or be in rural areas a lot, your gonna want some sort of jogger stroller or something with inflatable wheels. If your going to keep it in your vehicle and use it for when your going shopping in the city, going out to eat, and use it for an urban sort of lifestyle, with tad bits of times you walk the stroller on gravel, grass, etc, maybe a good all terrain full stroller with good suspension like Uppababy Cruz, Nuna Mixx Next, Bugaboo Fox 5. If you want something more budget friendly in this category maybe the Chicco Corso or Bravo stroller,Graco Modes Nest 2 grow. Jogger strollers include BabyJogger city mini gt, Thule Urban Glide, Guava Roam, Uppababy Ridge, etc. A carseat is 100% necessary, so no matter what, that should be the 1st thing you look at. Find 1 you like, then look at what strollers its compatible with (usually you might have to buy a separate adapter if you use a different brand of carseat from the stroller). You can always look at what strollers already come as part of a bundled travel system with that carseat. But before you even get started looking at carseats, you need to make a decision ifbyour going to use an Infant Carseat (pill bug looking seats), or a convertible carseat (the big ones that stay in a vehicle), or both.
r/Buyingforbaby • View on Reddit →I have the Thule Urban glide 3 with the bassinet. I don't think it fits your criteria but it is so splendid! Easy to maneuver, has a hand brake, giant wheels that come off very easil and it's super smooth and sleek. Definitely aptly named ðŸ˜
r/BabyBumps • View on Reddit →FTM. Thule urban glide 3. Bought new. I'd definitely recommend it to a friend. There's nothing I don't like about it. I live in the countryside and move across a lot of terrain.
r/NewParents • View on Reddit →Also in Colorado and going with the Thule urban glide as our neighborhood/off roading stroller! We also got the Nuna TRVL for plane travel / errands
r/Buyingforbaby • View on Reddit →Don't know about that one specifically, but the Thule urban glide is amazing. If I only were going to have one kid and one stroller, I'd buy that with an infant insert. It handles mountains like a champ.
r/BabyBumps • View on Reddit →Lots of good suggestions here! If I may, here are things I *regretted* buying for newborns. You can always buy these things IF you find the need for them, but i spent a lot of money buying ahead of time to find out I never used them or could've used something else. For feeding: - nipple cream (never used, only did breastmilk and air dry) - breast pads (maybe useful to have 2-3 reusable sets for the first few weeks but otherwise never used again) - special bf shirts or dresses (just wore my normal clothes) - special bottle sterilizer ( I ended up using this bc I donate milk to preemies and they want me to, but otherwise wasn't really needed unless you're pumping in the newborn phase) - bottle warmer (just run under hot water and spin) - nursing cover (just another thing to carry around, I only used muslin blankets) - boppy (personally found super uncomfortable and just use a pillow) - lots of bottles (wait to see what baby likes first!) For diapering: - NB diapers (wait to see how big baby is, then order!) - expensive baby changing mat (literally any would suffice) - wipe warmer (he's fine with his cold wipes haha) - special diaper cream (we use aquaphor) We used cloth diapers as soon as baby was a few weeks old so not sure what else. We used a nice garbage can with a lid and reusable wet bag to collect diapers. For bath time: - special infant seat (used when baby got older, but for nb stage we just sponge bathed or one of us held baby bc he was so uncomfortable) - baby towels (we just dried with little burp cloths) - any special baby lotion (I use Pipette for myself and for baby) Baby clothes: - pants/shirts in nb, 0-3 sizes (baby wore exclusively onesies and footie pajamas) Baby items: - stroller (honestly we never use ours bc I almost exclusively babywear; if I could go back I'd probably get one cheap off marketplace instead of my Thule jogger) - baby play mat, especially the lovevery one (just use blanket) - any special baby furniture (we just used our own) Here's a list of we have used for my second: For feeding: - burp cloths (lots, but nothing special) - 2 glass bottles and bottle brush - pump and pump parts and breastmilk bags (get through insurance!!! Don't spend your own money on them!) - syringe for vitamin d drops - pumping or nursing bras For diapering: - size one diapers and wipes - cloth diapers - simple foldable mat - wet bags - aquaphor (phenomenal stuff, works on rashes, nipples, skin, lips, etc etc) For bathing: - burp/towel cloths - simple baby wash (we only use on specific areas) For clothes: - onesies short and long sleeve - footie pajamas - sweater - hat - socks (for under footies when it's cold) Baby items: - baby carriers for baby wearing - a few black and white cards or small toys - bassinet - bouncer ? TBD, as he doesn't like it - muslin blankets - diaper bag with essentials - pacifiers (bought 2 brands, he liked 1, so we went with that one) Baby toiletries: - electric nail trimmer - thermometer - syringe If I could go back, I'd also get most things from buying nothing groups or FB marketplace. Most baby items are only used for 0-2 years so they're in good condition! And people always get surplus items at showers or as gifts so a lot of items are in new or like new condition. Hope this helps.
r/beyondthebump • View on Reddit →I have a Thule! I've always loved it. Took it out for a run recently and noticed it was lilting to the left for some reason. I had locked the front wheel backward without realizing lol. Not sure if that's possible on a bob but double check!
r/XXRunning • View on Reddit →We went with Thule Urban glide 3, with the bassinet. We're both tall and we live rurally so a long back rest and large wheels with good suspension are a must. The infant car seat (axkid) can clip on with universal adapters if needed.
r/BabyBumps • View on Reddit →Chicco bravo KeyFit the infant car seat clicks right into it. It's a tad heavy and the basket underneath is a good size. It's good for running errands and around town. It also comes with cupholders for parents and the little one when they're ready to sit in the seat. It also reclines so they can lay down and take a nap. We were also given a hand me down Thule. That one is light and is good for parks and trails because it has shocks and actual tires so you can go through grass and even sand. There is a separate bar/contraption you can buy to hold the Chicco infant car seat. The basket underneath is on the small side. We also had to buy a cupholder thing for it because the model wr have doesn't come with it . They're both great!
r/BabyBumps • View on Reddit →Got a Thule because we run with baby and it handles off roading really well. Worth the investment.
r/beyondthebump • View on Reddit →I have a Thule single seat and honestly don't love it. I think I'll get the wagon for when they're old enough to sit up and look into the uppababy vista thank you!
r/parentsofmultiples • View on Reddit →Vote for the Thule Urban Glide! We had family all pitch in and it's been 110% worth the investment. We use it every day. Did have an issue with the brake, Thule customer service was top notch, sending us an entire new stroller, no questions, free of charge. No issues with our new one. I preferred the jogging stroller type because you can take them anywhere- including the snow.
r/parentsofmultiples • View on Reddit →I got mine for 350 at a Black Friday sale from a sport retailer. This was 3 years ago though.
r/NewParents • View on Reddit →Thule is a great brand and has a great resale value. I personally bought one on fb marketplace for $100 and I believe it was manufactured in 2015/16.
r/fitpregnancy • View on Reddit →Agree with everyone about jogging strollers!!!! We first got the uppababy Cruz which we do love but in the snow (we live in Calgary) you get so stuck it's so hard. So we got the Thule because we go on lots of walks and now walk our baby to daycare so it gets used twice daily. Cruz stays in the car and is used for outings like appointments, mall grocery etc. but Thule gets used for walks. We have the urban glide - and it is still sooo big. I hate taking it into stores so it's really an outdoor stroller for us. So imo it's not a good everyday stroller but it's amazing for winter and trails. Also look on marketplace, lots of people selling jogging strollers. Also I've heard people do not like the vista as a double stroller and also you never know if you do have a second kid whether your first will be at an age where they even still want to be in a stroller. So for us it was worth the gamble to just get the Cruz and if we need then get a double later on.
r/BabyBumpsCanada • View on Reddit →When I travel with my kids I bring my Thule urban glide, my mockingbird with the car seat adapter and double attachment, and three car seats. I do not travel light though lol.
r/BabyBumps • View on Reddit →They honestly both have their merits. I have the uppababy vista, the Thule urban glide (side x side), and Thule chariot (side x side). I use the Thules for running and dog walks, but the main problem I'm having with side x side right now is just the amount of stroller drama (they are 12 months but this has been going on for a few months)..this includes biting, toy stealing, etc etc. The uppababy is good for the rare city outing (especially as they are still in their infant seats so they click right in), but I find it more difficult to steer, it is LONG (sorry door frames), and it has no breaks which I find incredibly useful living in a very hilly area!
r/parentsofmultiples • View on Reddit →Certipur is for foam so you likely won't see that on a stroller. Greenguard is usually for furniture, so i would be surprised to see that as well. If you're going to actually be running with it, the most important thing above nontoxic is how safe is it actually for running (ex: how well the brakes work, safety strap, locking wheel, etc). I have a Thule urban glide and love it but don't think the fabric is certified. I also don't run but i still love the stroller for walks!
r/moderatelygranolamoms • View on Reddit →For walks you use a bassinet at least until baby is able to sit up in a 3 point position. The car seat isn't suitable for walks because the baby's position can cause oxygen desaturation. Same reason for making frequent stops when driving for longer stretches. I didn't get the car seat attachments. We transfer baby in a flat bottomed sleep carrier and use the bassinet for any stroller use. The stroller is Thule Urban glide 3.
r/beyondthebump • View on Reddit →I got a jogging stroller as my primary stroller (Thule Urban Glide) because I too have gravel and a steep driveway to contend with. It's large but handles beautifully. It has a car seat adapter that works with my Nuna Pipa and an optional bassinet attachment. Unfortunately it cannot be used as a double and I don't think it has a compatible ride along board attachment.
r/BabyBumps • View on Reddit →We have spent more than $600 on all our strollers but not on a single stroller. My honest opinion based on our OAD family: * Mockingbird single ($450, purchased new): Used daily in the newborn stage and almost daily until about age 1. Did not buy the bassinet attachment and did not regret it. Got the mockingbird instead of the more expensive Uppababy and loved our choice. Would purchase again new. Looking to sell it soon, but I expect it to be difficult since we only got the single stroller and not the single to double. * Uppababy Minu v1 ($200, purchased secondhand): Got this for travel because it folds down smaller than the Mockingbird and theoretically could be stowed in the overhead compartment of an airplane. We ended up spending $80 on the Uppababy travel bag and gate checking the stroller for our trip last year and will do the same for our upcoming trip. We use this nearly daily and mostly love it, but I wouldn't have paid more than $200 for it even brand new. A good buy used, will probably sell it in the next year or so but don't anticipate listing it for more than $100. * Thule jogging stroller ($500, purchased new): Rides like a dream. Husband loves this for jogging. We haven't used it as much as the others and we definitely didn't _need_ this stroller, but we've certainly used it plenty and can keep using it for a while longer. We'll sell it when we're done with it. We got lucky and purchased all of these items 3 2.5 - 3 years ago, so they might be more attractive on the resale market given the tariffs on comparable products. I've also kept the strollers remarkably clean; the only one that shows any signs of wear is the Uppababy and most of that is the color of the fabric (light grey). I've washed it a handful of times and it usually comes out very close to "good as new." Worth noting that we will not be buying a wagon as our child gets older, so once we age out of the strollers we're done. We have a backpack for the things we need to carry & our kid can walk if we go places; if they can't walk the whole time it means we're going for too long. It's just what works for our family; lots of folks love their wagons to pieces.
