I received my stroller last week and so far we are very happy with it. I ordered it after a long search for my perfect AT stroller. My needs were: light weight, good canopy, small fold, and large enough to hold my 21MO with growing room.
Her is a pic of Sara in the stroller. She is very comfortable.

Here is a pic from the side showing the full canopy. This is awesome.

Her is a pic with the canopy pulled up by a drawstring to the size of a reg canopy so that she can see out better

Here is a pic of the recline. It does not recline alot, but it is enough for a toddler to sleep comfortable. Would not work for an infant. You can get a car seat adaptor to fit the stroller.

This is a pic of the folded stroller. It is a 2 step process, but not hard. As you can see the 16inch wheels are the biggest part.

It has a mesh cup/toy holder on each side of baby. Great ides for older kids

The stroller strides also comes with it's own console that carries exercise tubing in a zippered pouch and a water bottle.

The stroller has a very neat suspension. A great selling point for dads. I also wanted to mention that since it goes to 70lbs, my 8yo got in the stroller. She actually fit, althought her legs were cramped.

If I have missed anything that anyone wants to see let me know.
I ordered mine from Jodi at Lets go Strolling. She was very helpful answering all my questions before I bought it and gave Fantastic customer service. I would recommend her to anyone.
As you can see I am not very good at resizing these pics. lol

Thanks for the great review!
I am 99.9% sure I am going to order one of these & return the Schwinn Safari.
I really wish the Safari was doing it for me...(the price is great)..but I think I want something a little nicer.
I went to REI today to check it out.
They did not have the Revolution on display, but they had the SUS so I could at least get a "general" idea of what the Bobs are like.
Your pics really helped too!
Thanks again!!
ETA: Just for reference...how tall is your DD??
TIA :-)

Sara is 33.5inches. I took another pic without the fuzzy so you could see better how much room she has. I am not worried at all that she will outgrow this stroller anytime soon. Remember that they grow on both ends and only the back of their head touches the seat, not the top. The other stroller that seems to work for older taller kids is the E3. There is also a helpful seat measurement chart on joggingstroller.com under compare.
