1. Baby Bargains >> Details/Subscribe	Strollers Denise and Alan Fields 7th Edition, 2007		This excellent book includes buyer's guides and ratings of dozens of types of baby gear. The authors conduct hands-on testing and also interview parents, manufacturers and retailers. Parents posting to Amazon.com say this is the best baby gear book available, with plenty of current info and lots of attitude, including sections aimed at steering consumers away from unnecessary features. The book's online site (www.windsorpeak.com) includes a forum on which parents can rate strollers.
2. Consumer Reports >> Details/Subscribe	Strollers Editors of Consumer Reports Apr. 2007		Consumer Reports rates eight all-terrain strollers and eight jogging strollers for safety (assessed by measuring stability on an incline), performance (including maneuverability on various terrain and over bumps) and ease of use (by folding and unfolding, adjusting the seat, using the harness and engaging brakes). Consumer Reports is more clinical and measured in its testing, but Baby Bargains factors parent opinion and aesthetics, which are not considered by Consumer Reports. Together, these two reports balance each other very well.

3. Which.co.uk >> Details/Subscribe	Pushchairs Editors of Which.co.uk July 4, 2007		Which.net is comparable to Consumer Reports in the strength of its testing. Editors, ergonomists and parents are all part of the testing process. Because this is a U.K. website, however, most jogging and all-terrain strollers tested aren't available in the United States. The Quinny Speedi SX and the Britax Trekker are rated at Best Buys, but neither are available in the US
4. Choice.com.au >> Details/Subscribe	Three-wheel strollers Editors of Choice.com.au Feb. 2007		This Australian consumer magazine tests about a dozen all-terrain and jogging strollers. Most failed tests in some aspect. Four top picks are chosen, but none of those models are available in the US. Editors also tested the Quinny Zapp, finding that it has a tendency to tip when on an incline or when there's any extra weight on the handles. The Jeep Liberty Limited Urban Terrain was judged too bulky to fit in a trunk, and it failed some durability and safety tests. The Valco Runabout Tri-Mode has the lowest ease-of-use scores.
5. Baby-Gaga.com	All-Terrain and Jogging Stroller reviews Editors of BabyGaga.com As of Dec. 2006		BabyGaga.com is a website dedicated to rating strollers. Cumulative scores are based on both editorial and parental ratings, with strollers graded according to value, safety, convenience and comfort. The editors here distinguish all-terrain strollers from true joggers. Among all-terrain strollers, the BOB Fitness Strides, Baby Jogger City series and Bugaboo Cameleon are highest rated overall, while the InStep Safari is named the best budget all-terrain stroller. Among jogging strollers, the BOB Sport Utility Stroller and Ironman get the highest scores, along with the Kelty Joyride. For joggers on a budget, the Baby Trend Expedition is deemed an acceptable choice and a good value. This review would rate more highly had the reviews been updated to include 2007 jogging strollers.

6. Runner's World >> Details/Subscribe	Jog Stroller Reviews Sarah Bowen Shea 2006		In this outdated article, Sarah Bowen Shea profiles three jogging strollers, but models aren’t ranked and it isn’t clear if they’ve been tested in any particular way. The writer does discuss features and how they might be useful for a variety of activities.
7. About.com	Top 10 Jogging Strollers Jesslyn Bass Not Dated		Jesslyn Bass lists ten strollers she considers to be the best for runners, along with a list of features. Strollers are not compared, and it doesn't appear any testing was performed. There's a list of features, and that's it. As a result, we rate this review poorly for credibility. The Baby Jogger Performance Single is top-rated, followed by the BOB Ironman and the Dreamer Design Slingshot RPS. (Note: ConsumerSearch.com is owned by About.com/The New York Times.)
8. JoggingStroller.com	Jogging Strollers Contributors to JoggingStroller.com As of Aug. 2007		This retail site primarily focuses on jogging strollers, and editors allow parents to contribute reviews. Because of the large number of jogging strollers sold here, JoggingStroller.com is a pretty good place to check for user reviews. Some models only have a couple of comments, and most get relatively high scores, but the individual write-ups can be useful.
9. StrollersandPrams.com	Stroller reviews Annabel Jones Not Dated		This website has some excellent in-depth reviews. Unfortunately, few strollers have yet been covered, and many of these aren’t available in the US. This is one of the few sites we found that evaluates Quinny strollers in depth, including the Quinny Zapp (an "enjoyable" stroller). The Mountain Buggy Urban Single is the highest-rated jogger, described as "a pleasure to use."
10. BabyCenter.com	Parents' Picks: Jogging strollers Contributors to BabyCenter.com As of Aug. 2007		BabyCenter.com is mainly a retail site, but parents are invited to rate products. Most only receive a few reviews and ratings, and some don't have any comments, but if you're looking for parent-written reviews on jogging strollers, this is a good place to try.
11. Epinions	Jogging Strollers Contributors to Epinions.com As of Aug. 2007		Few jogging strollers receive ratings at Epinions, though hundreds are listed. However, Epinions is worth a stop if you’ve narrowed your search and are looking for owner-written ratings of jogging strollers.
12. Amazon.com	Contributors to Amazon.com As of Aug. 2007		Amazon.com is another good place to check for user reviews. From the average scores, it's hard to tell which might be favorites, but the individual write-ups are often helpful. Like most user-review websites, Amazon.com is most helpful once you've narrowed your choice to a few jogging strollers.
13. Slate.com	He's Having a Baby – and Needs a Stroller Pronto Greg Allen Oct. 25, 2005		This new dad evaluates strollers based on aesthetics and design, also paying attention to performance, portability, comfort, safety, extras, value and fit. Allen likes the Phil & Ted’s e3 Buggy (discontinued), saying its features and riding style are perfect for urban parents, and the Bugaboo Cameleon, citing its one-handed driving capability and longer wheel base. Only this review’s age keeps it from receiving a higher ranking.

14. Consumer Guide.com	Single Strollers and Umbrella Strollers Editors of ConsumerGuide.com Not Dated		Consumer Guide doesn't list its criteria or methodology for evaluating products. Although models receive a rating for "performance," none appear to have been tested. There is no specific section for jogging strollers.
15. Mumsnet.com	Three Wheelers Contributors to Mumsnet.com June 2007		Mumsnet.com members are invited to rate strollers according to nine criteria. Results are averaged, and each stroller is given an overall rating along with a short editorial summary. Unfortunately, we can't tell if the ratings are based on one parent review or dozens (the site doesn't tell us). Among jogging strollers, the Mountain Buggy Urban Single receives the site’s highest rating.
16. LilaGuide.com	Jogging Strollers and All Terrain Strollers Contributors to LilaGuide.com As of Aug. 2007		The Lila Guide is part of a family of websites that include TheNest.com (for newlyweds) and TheKnot.com (for those getting married). While there aren’t a lot of jogging stroller reviews at this point, this might turn out to be a good review source in the future.
17. BobbysBest.com	Baby Gear Reviews & Resources -- Reviews -- Double Stroller “Bobby” Not Dated		This site is the work of “Bobby,” a self-described product fanatic who has been a product-review blogger since March, 2006. Phil & Ted’s Sport Buggy Double is called the best convertible stroller, because of its ease of use and the fact that it can fit in a car trunk.
18. StrollerMama.com	Phil & Ted’s Sport Buggy Lives Up To Its Name Erika and Amy Mar. 16, 2007		If you're into strollers, you'll enjoy this blog, which accompanies a retail site. Along with reviews, this is a good place for news on new and upcoming strollers, including jogging strollers and all-terrain strollers. Right now, there isn't much here, but if it's kept up to date, this promises to be a fun blog.
