Joovy Zoom 360 Jogging Stroller - Blue

Comments about Zoom 360 Jogging Stroller - Blue:

My daughter just turned 3 years old and our original jogging stroller (Tike Tech Trax 360) was giving out on us. I started shopping around, trying to avoid the enormous expense of the "Bob" without having to sacrifice the quality or functionality. I live near to a major city park and jog the trail (5 miles) 4-5 times per week. After reading reviews (and actually spotting another mom with the same stroller on the trail - and getting positive feedback from her) I decided to go with the Joovy Zoom 360. As my headline reads - so far so good. We've had it for a little over a week now and have used it a handful of times. My daughter is extremely satisfied with it and overall I like it as well. Here are my own pros and cons:

Pros:
*Super, Super, Super (cannot stress this enough) easy to put it together. After the pain of trying to get the straps right on the Tike Tech stroller this was like a dream come true.
*Very smooth ride for my daughter
*Love the extra coverage of the sun shade - our previous stroller did not offer the same degree of protection - this one is comparable to the Bob.
*LOVE the cup holders and zipper pocket for my stuff - very handy
*Comes with a rain cover - our previous stroller we had to purchase that as a separate accessory
*LOVE how easy it is to fold and store in a small coat closet - I'm still shocked at this one!
*Just feels really well made

Cons:
*Handle doesn't adjust... This is not a HUGE issue, but for all my beefs with the Tike Tech, I did love that I could adjust the handle to exactly the place where I wanted to hold it while I was running - it's going to take a while to get used to the new (higher than I would prefer - I'm 5'6") height.
*Heavier than I expected it to feel - this, combined with the slightly higher handle has made my jogs a bit more challenging this week.
*Pulls to the left when I lock the front wheel... I realize that this may be due to some error on my part but I haven't figured out how to correct it so I'm running with the front wheel not locked - which can be problematic when running downhill (have to make sure the front wheel stays on the ground or it can flip and send us all into the dirt) - hopefully I'll figure out what is causing this issue soon and correct it.

That's it for now. Overall, I'm quite satisfied with this stroller and would recommend it.

I started running about four months ago, and I knew that my stroller wasn't meant for running (a Britax B Ready), but I still used it. I knew I needed a jogging stroller, so I was looking and reading everything about them. I finally settled on the Joovy Zoom 360. I loved the idea that any of my three smaller children (ages 2,4, and 6) could go with me on a run. I was familiar with Joovy, as when my youngest was born we used the Joovy Big Caboose and I loved it.

This stroller steers unbelievably easily, it turns on a dime, and it feels as though it nearly propels itself it's so easy to push!

The only problem I have at all is that the wheel pulls ever so slightly to the left when it's locked for running. It needs to be adjusted; it just hasn't been done yet. After the adjustment, I am confident it'll be much better.

All three of my children sit very comfortably and with plenty of room to grow (of course not all at the same time). My 6 year old is tall and slender: nearing 48 inches tall and is about 48 pounds. She has plenty of room and enjoys the ride.

Leave it to Joovy--the sun canopy is absolutely a DREAM! The included rain cover is wonderful and covers virtually everything that you need covered in case of rain, and the front flips open for when the weather clears while remaining if the rain continues. You then just flip the cover back over and it's all protected nicely again, with bub snug and dry inside.

It is slightly bulkier than I was expecting, but I can still handle it fine in its folded position. Definitely not bulky enough to be a deal breaker. It may not be any bulkier than any other jogger--I really can't say as this is my first. I have only ordinary single strollers to compare it to.

Overall, an amazing stroller that is worth every single penny.

I JUST received this stroller, like literally 1 hour before I wrote this. My husband was not at home and I could not wait, so I set it up myself. It was Amazingly easy to set up! Just snap in the two back wheels, unfold the stroller and easily install the front wheel. I couldn't believe how easy it was to set up. Within five minutes the stroller was ready to go. So I strapped my son in and took him for a quick ride around the block and he loved it! He is 9 months and he is tall for his age and he has plenty of room to grow. He is high off the ground so he can see everything! The canopy is also super big! I love that this stroller is a monster looking stroller, its big and looks like it can take on anything and yet it is super lightweight and incredibly easy to push. I also love that it comes with the pump, the weather cover AND the parent organizer. Most jogging strollers come with none of those accessories. The price, with the quality and the accessories of this stroller is just unbeatable!!

I cannot believe how amazing this stroller is! As a parent of two children, I have been through many strollers (and have inevitably suffered through two Phil & Teds, which unfortunately have been our only option for two kids in Brooklyn)- this is such a special stroller! I walk several miles each day to get where I need to be in Brooklyn and need a stroller that can handle lots of bumps. This maneuvers like a DREAM. The light-weight wheels and shock coils absorb all of the bumps and I can push it with the lightest touch of ONE hand. I love everything about this. It feels so so much lighter than other strollers (and is, incidently 3" more narrow than the P & T). We did have to take it to a bike shop to get the wheels initially inflated. I put it together myself (you only have to snap on the wheels). I also love that it comes with the rain cover and cup holders. A TOTAL bargain for [$]. I only wish it could somehow accommodate two children.

I do like this stroller. However it is soooooo heavy. Heavy to lift and heavy to push. Even though it is a very smooth ride and my daughter fits in it nice, it does weigh a lot and my daughter weighs 26lbs, so pushing it up hill while jogging can be a task. I do LOVE the rain cover and the umbrella part. Very nice! I just started jogging so I just might not be ready for it yet but I am glad we have it and I can keep getting used to it.

I bought this stroller mainly for our trip to Croatia to visit my in-laws. They live on an island which has a beach that we wanted to specifically go to since it is known for being great for children. However, the beach is only accessible by a dirt road/path so this stroller worked great. The sun shade cover is amazing! The wheels come off very very easily. The included pump was much appreciated too since you always say "oh we can buy one later". The storage underneath was strong enough to hold a battery for my husbands jet-ski, a bottle of brandy and more. Oh and with the 2 big wheels off we fit this and 1 large suitcase in the back of 2 different European hatchbacks!

I debated forever over which jogging stroller to buy and I feel I made the best decision! Love my Joovy 360. My son is a big guy for 9 months and there is plenty of room for him to grow. I jog and do fast walks with this stroller. Very smooth ride, easy to steer and push, the sun canopy and rain cover are both fantastic! The quality is great. I have no complaints. Yes, it's more bulky than an every day stroller, but it is not so bulky that I have any problems with it. The swivel wheel is also very stable!

My husband and I are so excited about this stroller! We've owned 2 Bob strollers and when we needed a new one, didn't want to pay the hefty price tag. This stroller is a dream! We love it so much more than any of the others we've tried or owned. It's easy to set up and fold, rides like a dream, has wonderful shocks for trails, huge canopy, adjustable back so child can lay down or sit up at any position....I could go on and on...It's the best purchase we've made in 8 years of children.

Comments about Zoom 360 Jogging Stroller - Blue:

If I could rate this 6 stars out of 5, I would. It is easy to fold, easy to unfold, compact for a jogging stroller and the canopy is huge! I owned the Bob stroller previously and it doesn't even compare to this one. This is the best stroller out there and at such a great price. Thank you diapers.com for [...]

This stroller beats any others by far. I love the looks, all the gadgets that come with it, the extra large seat for my son to be comfortable and it was one of the few that has a bigger weight limit for toddlers. This stroller will last until my son is big enough to run or walk with me. BEST STROLLER EVER!

I decided to purchase a new jogging stroller after nearly 5 years of hard wear on my Baby Trend Expedition (which held up great). My only concern was that the Baby Trend only held up to a 45 pound child. I still enjoy jogs with my 4 year old who is about 36 pounds. I feel that weight with running is too much on my Baby Trend. Even though the head room is less on the Joovy, my 4 year old still is comfortable on the jogs. Smoothest ride ever, even compared to the BOB. My 8 month old falls asleep in the Joovy without a problem. Even though there is no kiddie snack tray, I realized that I didn't use it much, especially while jogging...nothing would ever stay in the tray anyway!! I think for the price it is the best you can get. I would even recommend to splurge a little if you are considering a less expensive brand. THANK YOU!!!!!!

I love this jogging stroller. The price is right especially since I can safely compare the convenience and quality to a B.O.B. and the best part is my four-year-old daughter still has room to grow. Her feet don't even touch the footrest yet! The shocks are amazing, I almost wish I could take a test ride in it. There are two cons that have have noticed, though the pros outweigh them. 1) It is almost too high for me. I am 5'2" and I think it might be a little uncomfortable for anyone shorter than that. And it mainly seems a little too high when the shade is down. 2.) The recline adjuster is a little difficult to use, but I think the more it gets used the less stiff it will seem.

All in all it is a great product. I've purchased my share of baby gear and this is very, very easy to assemble with no screws or anything to deal with. I continue to be impressed with Joovy. I also own a Joovy Caboose, and have zero complaints.

I can't wait for our next jog!

I already reviewed this stroller once, but as I used it more and more I noticed that the front wheel was getting really wobbly and the whole stroller was shaking when I ran. It was terrible. I couldn't figure out how to fix it, so I wrote to the company. They directed me to a video on their company website that shows how to remove the foot plate and adjust the swivel wheel for higher speeds and rough terrain. I'm a fan once again.

It's so hard to find a good jogging stroller that includes all the important add-ons. I love love love this stroller. I also have the joovy room2 play yard. Joovy products have such great construction and high quality materials...

Comments about Zoom 360 Jogging Stroller - Blue:

We are definately comfortable with this product. My husband is 6 ft while i'm 5'3" and it fits both of us even though it does not have an adjustable handle. The ride is smooth & the front wheel lock is pretty solid. My 5 month old was comfortable enough to fall asleep during our 3 mile jog. I'm hoping to take it on longer jogs soon. We initially bought a BOB but after having it home we couldn't justify spending all that money. We returned it & got the Joovy which met all our needs plus is half the price. A great purchase for us!
