Consumer Feedback: Read Amazon Consumer Reviews on the Graco FastAction Fold Jogger
Who Would Buy This: Those shopping for a feature-packed, single jogging stroller which provides the creature comfort of a regular stroller with the benefits of a jogging stroller.
Pros:
Sporting a lightweight of just 31.1 lbs, the Graco FastAction Fold Jogger is a great option for on the go families. The stroller features a front swivel wheel with built-in suspension for an ultra smooth ride and outstanding manoeuvrability over all types of terrain whether you’re walking or jogging. Both the front and rear rubber wheels are air-filled to further enhance the smoothness. Additionally the front wheel is lockable for when you want to start jogging and need the wheel to be fully stable.
Compatibility with Graco Click Connect infant car seats allows you to turn the stroller into a true travel system, which makes getting your child out the car into the stroller far more convenient than with standard joggers.
In terms of seating, this stroller is pretty impressive. The multi-position recline provides 3 seating positions which are sitting up, partial recline and a full recline. The seat is padded for comfort and accommodates children with a max weight of 50-lbs. On the safety front, the seat has a convertible 3-5 pt harness so you have the flexibility of having either a 3-pt or 5-pt harness.
The extra large sun canopy with mesh flap allows you to stroll in the sun without worry. Thanks to the closable flap you can keep an eye on your little one at anytime without stopping.
On the stroller seat you’ll find a handle which says “Pull to fold”. By tugging this, the stroller can be folded almost instantly for convenient folding. Additionally, its self-standing design means you don’t need to lean it up against anything once folded. Opening the stroller back up is equally as easy by simply unlatching the plastic clip located at the side of the seat and lifting up the handlebar.
An oversized storage basket provides lots of room for baby gear like diaper bags, toys, etc... As the basket is made from fabric and mesh materials, you don’t need to worry about items sliding about as you stroll up and down hilly surfaces.
A well designed parent tray is included which features two deep-style cup holders and a smart phone holder which features an adjustable lock so you can keep your phone secure while strolling. Additionally, underneath the smart phone holder there is a storage compartment which is handy for storing small items like keys or chewing gum.
Cons:
The handlebar isn’t height adjustable so you have to make do with the default height. The tall height makes it particularly suited to taller parents.
Guarantee: 1-year warranty.
Summary
Considering this is Graco’s first attempt at a jogger stroller, they’ve done a stellar job while still keeping the price relatively low. Its trendy styling, sturdy design, brilliant manoeuvrability and great amenities are the feature which impressed us most. Busy parents will also very much appreciate its ease of setup thanks to its pull and fold design.
Any active parent in the city or at the heart of the country who needs the best of both worlds (a stroller and a jogger) should take a closer look at the Graco FastAction Fold Jogger Click Connect Stroller.
