The answer is a resounding Yes that you can use jogging strollers for everyday use. I would strongly advise though to consider some important factors before making that decision to use a jogging stroller daily.
You will find it reassuring that Jogging strollers are designed to be more durable and stable than traditional strollers, with their larger wheels and a more robust frame. This makes them the ideal choice for running, or jogging on uneven terrain or rough surfaces.
However, the robust design of jogging strollers does not preclude them from being used as everyday strollers, as you will find they will provide a smoother ride for your baby or toddler, and can handle different types of terrain. They may be a bit heavier and bulkier than traditional strollers, but they also offer more storage and better suspension.
They are generally bigger in size, and as such, you may not be able to manoeuvre them easily in tight spaces, crowded areas, and turning at sharp corners can be difficult with some brands or model, so you may want to consider a traditional stroller for situations like these.
In addition, some jogging strollers don’t recline fully, which may not be suitable for infants who need to lie flat.
You would have probably guessed by now that the decision to use a jogging stroller as an everyday stroller depends on your needs and lifestyle. If you are an outdoor loving parent or carer who prefers spending as much time with your little on while running or jogging, the choice as an everyday use can be a great investment.
So would you still choose to use a jogging stroller for everyday use? Yes, if you are the active and outdoor type of parent or caregiver. But some parents may just need a stroller for normal errands with a child, and for them, the traditional strollers with their light weight and compact design would be the perfect choice.
