I could go on, and on, and on…and on, and on. However, I’m not going to sugar coat anything and go straight for the facts and my exact thoughts in today’s post. I can not strongly enough recommend the product I’m going to tell you about today. Like, one of the best items I’ve ever reviewed here on SIMPLE. If you have been following us on Twitter or Instagram for the past month now, you will have seen me sporting a new set of wheels. My new set of wheels is for the little people in my life, not a ride that I can run to the grocery store in. I received a brand new BOB Flex stroller and I’m busting at the seams with happiness because I get to share it with you!

I am a runner and live a very active lifestyle. Not only do I run, but my husband is a mountain and road bike racer. Although he wasn’t able to participate in as many races as he would have liked this year, due to us having baby #4, we were still attending quite a few. When you go to races like these, much like any race you attend, you need a stroller that will stand the test of time and be able to go over and through many, many obstacles. Not obstacles like the bikers are going through, but there are dirt roads, and many things like that. This stroller does it all. Like…amazing!

I want to share four key features of the new BOB Flex stroller with you all today and by the end of the post, my hope is that you will be jumping with joy like I am. Because the stroller is THAT cool. And, well, because one of YOU are going to win won one!!!

BOB Flex Stroller Napping

So, let’s do some nitty gritty and then the magic will happen!

First things first, new colors. I mean, you have to be fashionable and love what you are pushing around. Right? The new colors and total color spectrum, that’s now available for the BOB Flex make it easy to do just that. Love your ride! You can get these in a gorgeous green (wilderness), blue (lagoon…with a black OR silver frame), orange or black on black.

BOB Flex Stroller

Second, but the one that I’m loving the most, is the 9-position handle. Oh yes…NINE positions you guys! How perfect is this for those families where height is an issue when it comes to purchasing a stroller. One stroller for all in the family to push around.

BOB Flex Stroller with colorsThird, the front wheel and the fold. Well, maybe that’s three and four. Anyways 🙂 It has an adjustable wheel that makes it perfect for tooling around town or running on trails. Easy to lock it in to position! I didn’t even have to read the instruction manual on this one 🙂 And the fold. Perfect for errands and going in and out of your vehicle. Lays pretty flat and has a pull and up fold down motion.

Last point I want to mention. The BOB Flex accommodates an infant car seat. I know that so many parents are at a conundrum when they want to get out with their older children and go for a walk, but still have a baby. And maybe you aren’t the baby wearing type? Or, maybe you just don’t want to wear your baby that time. There haven’t been many strollers that allow for this. This stroller can create a full travel system with a matching BOB B-SAFE Infant Car Seats and a BOB Infant Car Seat Adapter. BOOM!! Solution solved!

For me, this BOB Flex is for running and for just about anything else. It has moved in front of many strollers that I have sitting in my garage, to be completely honest. The storage area, the points mentioned above, the maneuverability…it makes this my go to stroller for recommending to people. No joke y’all!

Talk to me – what do you think? Are you in love with it as much as I am now????

  9. i think this stroller is just awesome and overall high quality. but my favorite thing about it is the 3 wheeled design!

  10. I love that it has an awesome suspension system… nothing is more important than a smooth ride for my Baby Girl 🙂

  14. The adjustable handlebar is super fantastic. My husband is always groaning about how strollers are too short- he’s 6’4 and I’m 5’9.

  15. I love that when your running you don’t feel like your pushing a ton of weight. It’s easy to maneuver. It’s nice to have the multiposition canopy to prevent direct sunlight into your little one. The best part is you can buy an attachment for the stroller to put your infant car seat… so the stroller is good for all ages and stages for your little one 🙂

  20. I like the adjustable handle for parents of different height being that I’m short and my husband is tall this will come in handy!

  22. I am in love with all the features of the bob flex, and how cool does the black color look? The padded seat is a very nice feature I think very stroller should have.

  25. Being from a multi-height family, I love that is has a nine position handle to hopefully accommodate all of us.

  26. Its sunny out here, so a big multi position canopy would be really great. I love the the adjustable handle bar too.

  28. The Large canopy, and swivel front wheel. Plus its so much lighter than my current bulky stroller.

  29. I love that it only has one seat! After pushing a BOB Double jogging buggy around for years, pushing a single would be amazing! BOB is the only way to go when it comes to jogging strollers.

  32. I love that the BOB stroller is so sleek, light weight, and easy to fold up and store away. This stroller is amazing for the mommy and baby on the move like me and my son!

  33. The front wheel that transitions well between jogging and regular walks – it’s a big deal.

  46. I love that it’s easy to fold, and also the swiveling front wheel! I am a busy Mom of 3 children, 2 who are still little (4 and 19 months) and I think this stroller would make my life a LOT easier.. and I’d love a stroller that is easier to use when our 11 year old is riding his bike and whatnot, because ours is just so big and bulky and hard to maneuver….! Thanks for the chance 🙂

  48. Would love me a BOB stroller! Need something reliable to be able to lug my 8 month old as well as my 4yr old when she wants to swap with her sister. 🙂

  49. I love the adaptability of it, from the adjustable handlebar, being able to add an infant carrier to it, the awesome sun visor/canopy and the color choices! We have a lot of friends with similar BOB strollers and they are wonderful!

  53. I love the size of the wheels and how comfortable it is for the baby/child sitting in it 🙂

  54. I love the 9 position handle since I am 5’4″ and my husband is 6’4″!! And that it is compatible with an infant seat!

  63. Love everything about it!!! Especially the handle bar being able to switch so many positions since I’m short and my husband is tall.

  64. The one thing that I wish the older revolution model had is the adjustable handle bars. BOB is my choice for a jogging stroller, and I think this new model has everything I would think I need for jogging and training for a half marsthon.

  65. I love the State-of-the-art, adjustable suspension system provides an exceptionally smooth ride! We live in a hilly neighborhood with bumpy sidewalks 🙂

  68. I love the adjustable handlebar! My husband is 6’5″ and I’m 5’8″ so that would be am added bonus for us!! Thanks for the awesome giveaway!!

  71. Low Boy Cargo Basket provides plenty of undercarriage storage. Additional space in large seatback pocket. Internal seat pockets provide a great place for snacks and toys.

    As a strollin’ feather,this comes in handy.

  75. Love everything about the BOB. I’ve been trying to convince my husband to get us one. With all our outdoor activities, the swivel wheel, multiposition canopy is perfect. I’m also 5’2″, so it being light weight is key.

  80. ● Easy, two-step folding, lightweight frame for convenient transport and storage.

    I hate bulky strollers! This feature is awesome!

  81. As a man, the 9 position handle bar is great! My wife is 5ft so she quite smaller than I and this would be a major convenience! No hunching over for me.

  83. The adjustable handlebar is what I like the most! Then my tall husband wouldn’t complain about pushing it while running!

  84. The new colors are nice (particularly the lagoon one)! =) Would Love to win this for my daughter.

  86. I am a runner with a beautiful baby girl and would love to win this stroller. The BOB jogger is the best out there and I absolutely love the new blue color. It is an expensive jogger (worth every penny) so would be amazing to win it :-)!

  87. I love that the handlebar adjusts! I’m 5’1″ and my husband is almost 6′. Big difference :). That would make it so much easier for both of us.

  89. I love the versatility of this stroller and how easy it is to use all the different functions.

  91. So many things to love about this stroller! Swivel wheel, adjustable handle bar, that sun canopy, the genius infant seat adapter.

  93. I love the adjustable handlebar. With a foot different between my husband and I, this would sure come in handy! 🙂

  94. What’s not to love. The swivel front wheel, 5 point harness, accommodates infant seat, 9 position handler. The large sun canopy is awesome too!

  96. Love the 9 position handle-my husband is over 6’2 and I am a bit over 5 ft, so it’s nice to have something comfortable for both of us!

  97. I just love love the swiveling wheel- seriously can’t beat that! After many years with a regular wheel- this is amazing! I love the handle bar that it’s adjustable! I love the quality of the seat!

  101. So much to love, but my favorite is the fold up two step process. Such an awesome product to help keep families active with their little ones. 🙂

  103. We are researching strollers and we kept wondering “Could we use a BOB for everything?” You have answered that!

  104. I love everything about it! I’ve been eyeing BOB strollers for a few months. .. total stroller envy!

  110. i love the suspension system. we live in the middle of the desert so the terrain is rough. The bob seems like a perfect fit for a desert hike.

  113. I’m in love with the colors! It’s not the standard pink or blue and I love that it allows me to show off a little personality and fun!

  119. The nine position handle is awesome! There is a full foot difference between me and my husband so one of our huge complaints with strollers is that they are either too tall for m or too short for him. This solves our problem!

  130. Oh my! What is there to not be in love with?! Perfect! Adjustable wheels, lightweight, great size canopy and i can put a infantcarrier on it ?! Thats a Win!

  138. I love that BOB is offering a black chassis. It’s so sleek. Especially, with the black/grey fabric! <3

  143. The 9 position handle bar is great! My husband is taller than me, so this would work great for us! I also like the multi position canopy! Thanks!

  149. I know I’ve commented already but I must say that I am obsessed with this stroller! Every time i see it, I knudge my husband as if I were pointing out a middle school crush lol. I wish I owned this and yes, I would be jumping up and down hysterically too!

  157. I like that it folds down so well. My car isn’t that big, and I’m hoping I’d be able to get it into my trunk!

  160. I really like the adjustable handlebar. My husband is much taller than me, so this is important to us.

  165. This thing is so customizable! Which is great because sometimes I’m pushing my toddler, and sometimes my 8-month-old

  166. My favorite feature is the easy, two-step folding, lightweight frame for convenient transport and storage.

  167. I really like that the High-impact polymer composite wheels with pneumatic tires and tubes take on tough terrain. Thanks.

  170. I love that it adjusts to the parents height and that it ha easy, two-step folding. I like the swiveling front wheels and the large wheels that roll over any terrain!

  171. The adjustable handlebar makes for a perfect fit and makes switching between parents a breeze. Nice!

  173. The canopy is awesome. Love that I can jog with it and use it day to day as well. Whoot whoot! Wishing. 😉

  174. I love the giant canopy, adjustable handle, lockable front swivel wheel. It just seems like ther perfect go anywhere kinda stroller!!!

  178. I love that it had pneumatic tires and a locking front wheel! Ive been hitting up the snowmobile trails by my house lately to get back in shape after 2 kids in 2 years and this would be awesome!

  179. I love the suspension system! It would make our adventures much smoother, we love to go for long walks and runs all year long 🙂

  185. I love the Adjustable padded handlebar with 9 positions – good for tall and short mommies and everyone in between!

  189. The adjustable handle, my boyfriend is 6’6 and and I 5’9, but Grandma is about 5’6 and with the changing it makes it would make it comfortable for any of us to be pushing it.

  190. I love the state-of-the-art adjustable suspension system that makes it a smoother ride than other strollers. I have a cheaper stroller and it can ride pretty rough sometimes :/ This would be a huge help for making our runs better!

  192. It has so many great features, but I’m a safety freak so I’m going to say I love the 5 point harness the best!

  193. I really like the fact that it can accommodate an infant car seat because I don’t think a lot of jogging strollers can!

  196. I’m liking the adjustable handlebar (hey! I’m not the same height as my husband!) and the easy two step folding system 🙂

  199. Lots of things to love! The colors is the first thing that grabs my attention, the weight, the fact that it goes up to 70lbs!

  200. Bob strollers ride like a dream! I have borrowed a friend’s before — love how smooth they ride. Love the new color options on the Flex.

  202. I absolutely love the 9-position handle. I’m rather short and finding a stroller that’s comfortable to push without having my hands way up in the air is very problematic!

  210. The new features are great! I live in a rocky terrain (AZ) and this stroller looks like it can handle it with ease. Love the protection the large canopy provides and the hip new colors!

  212. I like that it can accommodate an infant car seat, and that there is an adjustable handle to be comfortable for anyone who is pushing the baby.

  229. So many things to love. I love the roomy seat and the ability to take one of my 6 keiki on a run with me.
