BOB is a brand known for their well-designed, lightweight jogging strollers which will allow you to get some exercise while bringing your baby along for a ride.

SAFETY | Well-Padded Travel System

Safety should always be a priority so picking the right travel system is very important. After all, your little one will be spending a lot of time in a stroller or a car seat and they need to be secure while you are on the move. What we love about the BOB Motion Travel System is the fact that the stroller is very stable. You can be sure that it will not tip over even if you have a habit of hanging items on the handlebar. As a matter of fact, the handle bar can withstand over 35 pounds of pressure.

The stroller is well cushioned and has a large canopy which can be adjusted in order to protect your baby from the direct sunlight. The canopy features a mesh peek-a-boo window on the top, which can add some extra peace of mind because you can see what your child is doing at all times. The canopy shouldn’t be used as a protection against rain because the mesh window will not stop the water from going in. A five-point harness feels very comfortable and has a stiff buckle which is very difficult to undo. It requires some strength so your little one will not be able to unlock it no matter how much they try.

BOB Motion travel system has solid brakes which can be engaged easily. And don’t worry if you are wearing sandals or flip-flops because you’ll still be able to press on the brakes safely. The tires are made of rubber which is a novelty. Plastic tires might be a bit tricky because they often slide on really sleek surfaces. You will be able to rely on the BOB Motion travel system even when the weather is bad and there is a lot of snow and ice outside.

This travel system comes with a base for an infant car seat and you will be able to install it in your vehicle pretty quickly. The base can be connected to the LATCH, or secured with a standard seat belt. Make sure the hold is tight and that the base is motionless. This infant car seat feels very light on its own and you will be able to carry it to and from your car easily. The sides are reinforced with some extra padding which includes energy absorbing materials that will keep your little one secure from a side impact. The area around the head and neck also has an additional lining.

COMFORT | Pleasant and Enjoyable Rides

The BOB Motion travel system features strong and reliable suspension technology which is a standard for their strollers. This means you can take it out on any terrain and your child will enjoy a comfortable and bump-free ride. Tires really make all the difference. BOB decided to go with the air filled tires which are made of rubber instead of hard plastic. You will be able to use this stroller on both concrete and grass – the feeling will be the same for your little passenger.

…feels very comfortable and the straps are padded as well.

This stroller also features the unlimited ability to recline, meaning your kid can sit up straight, lie down or lean back comfortably. You can quickly adjust the seat while on the move and the transition between the different angles is smooth. The BOB Motion Travel System also features a supportive yet luxurious seat which feels very comfortable and the straps are padded as well.

Because the BOB Motion Travel System has a large mesh window on the canopy, this stroller will provide tons of fresh air and proper ventilation for your child on those hot summer days. The sizeable canopy will also keep him or her cool and in the shade when needed. Unfortunately, the canopy doesn’t have an SPF rating.

…your child will enjoy a comfortable and bump-free ride.

EASE OF USE | All-Terrain and Super Light

Stroller

This stroller is very lightweight and it can be folded by using only one hand. Once you fold it, the stroller will not take up too much space and you will be able to store it anywhere. It can also stand on its own when folded, which is a huge plus. The stroller will fit into your trunk without any problems, be ready to go at all times, and accommodates children up to 65 lbs.

BOB Motion travel system stroller can conquer almost any terrain and that is a huge advantage. The tires are excellent and they will be easy to maneuver on just about every surface. This makes the stroller particularly useful in winter when there is a lot of ice on the sidewalks. And you can also use it on sand and gravel because the tires are treaded and filled with air.

…ready to go at all times, and accommodates children up to 65 lbs.

Since the stroller itself is not bulky, you will be able to use it in very small spaces. You can have the full control of the movement and direct it exactly where you want it to go. And the handlebars can be adjusted to fit your height. The padded seat is made of soft materials and your little one will feel very comfortable while spending time in this stroller. The leg rest feels very sturdy and it will be super easy to wipe and clean which is excellent. The seat can be reclined with only one hand.

There is also enough storage space underneath and you can reach in even if the seat is reclined. It might be a bit tricky because there is a thin bar across the opening but you will learn how to get past it pretty quickly. Unfortunately, there is no cup holder on the handlebar, but you can always purchase one separately and install it on a stroller because there is plenty of room up there.

Car Seat

The car seat is pretty light and the handlebar is wide enough to provide you with a comfortable grip. It works well with the base and you will be able to place it securely inside your vehicle. The car seat adapter is a simple click-in click-out system instead of a strapping system which makes this process a lot easier. BOB Motion travel system is very simple and easy to set up and comes with clear, concise instructions that are easy to understand and follow. Setup will take you about seven minutes.

…car seat can face both the front and the rear once you connect it to the stroller.

The car seat is not too large and you will be able to place it in small or medium sized vehicles without any difficulties. The click-and-go system will make the transition from the car to the stroller (and vice versa) very quick. You can be on your way in no time. Plus, the car seat can face both the front and the rear once you connect it to the stroller.

PRICE + LONGEVITY | A Solid Travel System

Longevity

What makes BOB Motion travel system stand out is the fact that it is assembled with high-quality materials. The frame of the stroller is made of aluminum alloy so it is sturdy and stable. The combination of fabrics which are used on the seat is great and it will stay in pristine condition for years if you maintain it properly.

…weight limit is 65lbs so this stroller should last you from birth until your child no longer requires a stroller.

The weight limit is 65lbs so this stroller should last you from birth until your child no longer requires a stroller. You can also use it in winter as the straps are easy to adjust around bulkier clothing.

Price

The current MSRP is $519.99 which can be considered expensive but is actually pretty good when you realize that this is everything you’ll need. But you can also find it for sale on sites like Amazon (Check it Out Now). This way, you can have it delivered right to your door!

Although the BOB Motion travel system is decently priced, it is expensive for a product that will likely require the purchase of additional accessories such as a coffee cup holder or snack tray. The design is fantastic and the stroller itself is very lightweight and easy to maneuver. The car seat has the right amount of padding and it will give your little one all the protection he or she needs while you are on the move. And not to forget that using these two products together will feel like a breeze because they can be connected in no time.
