Overview

Highlights

  • Easy one-hand fold
  • All-wheel suspension for a super smooth ride
  • Hand brakes for extra control when jogging downhill
  • Lock or unlock the front wheel from the handlebar!
  • Three-position sun canopy with peekaboo windows and side vents

Description

The all-wheel suspension of the Summit X3 lends itself to a very smooth ride, and the jogging strap keeps the stroller from getting away from you. It’s all-terrain (it can even handle stairs!) just be careful not to puncture the air-filled wheels. For a mall or a crowded store it’s too bulky, but for long distances and rough weather, it’s perfect. Because the glide is so great, you feel like you’re pushing far less weight than you actually are.

What really sets this jogger apart are the hand controls. Jogging strollers typically let you choose between lock and swivel on the front wheel, but the Summit X3 takes it to the next level by letting you toggle with a handlebar device (instead of having to bend over the wheel). As well as having the standard foot brake, it’s also got a handbrake to give you extra control on downhill jogs. Keep in mind that these features (although they’re great) do get in the way of some handlebar accessories. Between that and the lack of built-in cupholder, you might end up stashing your water bottle in the bottom compartment.

The canopy holds up to the wind of your jogging and the mesh side vents help your child enjoy the breeze too. The canopy’s got two nice Velcro windows (although some people prefer magnet-secured windows, which avoid the Velcro ripping sound). With the right adapter, you can click in a car seat and make it a travel system. Although you wouldn’t jog with a newborn, you can snap in a car seat and run errands with your newborn. It has a few recline positions, but not the full recline a newborn needs. The biggest downside is that some parents experience front wheel shakiness when the front wheel is unlocked. The weight is far from light, but not bad for a jogging stroller, and it’s roomy enough for older children (up to 75 lbs!). The fold is a bit bulky, so measure your trunk to check the fit.

What we love about it

It’s a roomy jogger with a windproof canopy and hand controls that make jogging with baby easy and safe.

I purchased the stroller almost a year ago and have been running with it with my nine month old. I am also having the wheel shaking problem. I contacted customer service for which they were extremely rude and refused to honor any sort Refund until I submitted a video showing exactly what I was talking about. This is obviously not an unknown problem to them.

Keely if you see this you can know you created this negative review.

It is ridiculous to me that you cannot steer a running stroller as you’re supposed to run only with it in the locked mode. The locked also veers off to the right.

Great for walking. Terrible for jogging
Terribly for jogging. Front wheel wobbles so bad you have to stop if you jog with any speed at all. Locking the front wheel is also not an option unless you only run in straight lines.

Great unless
Out of the box this stroller is easy to set up and absolutely beautiful! A friend called it my “Versace stroller.” The ride is so smooth and the large canopy is wonderful. We primarily use if for hiking. It has absolutely beautiful features. I love the hand break! The canopy is great and I love the magnetic placement holders. I wish it had an adjustable handlebar and a larger storage basket. Aside from that though, it’s great! …unless you have squeaky brakes. And I mean, SUPER squeaky. Baby Jogger was super helpful and replaced the stroller for us, twice, because the squeaking just wouldn’t go away. It was so bad my husband refused to use it anymore. That being said, once the issue was resolved, it was absolutely amazing! I received this item as a part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel.

Sturdy jogger with lovely one handed collapse
I received this product on behalf of Stellar Product Testing Panel for my honest opinion. I enjoyed the design of the Summit X3—especially the extra windows and vents built into the umbrella. This jogging stroller felt lighter than other jogging strollers. This stroller was sturdy, reliable, and I love the one-handle collapsible folding feature. I do wish it was slightly easier to carry, though. This stroller initially had squeaking issues, but Baby Jogger Customer Support was super responsive. Initially, they were going to replace the stroller, but after the claim was submitted they recommended using a white lithium grease. Fortunately, the problem went away on its own. I do enjoy the versatility of this stroller—from runs, walks, to schlepping the toddler to their older sibling’s sports games. We love the all-terrain tires, too! The ease-of-use is great—from switching between jogging and walking mode (although, this did take some getting used to) to reclining the stroller for our toddler to nap. My favorite feature of this stroller is that I can use it for so many adventures—walks around the neighborhood, a morning run, shopping, trails to sporting events, and more! There is ample storage under the stroller. The brakes work well, and of course, the must-have for a jogger—the safety wrist band, which can switch sides.

Awesome stroller
I received this product for free from Stellar Product Testing Panel in exchange for my honest and thorough review.

I was very excited to receive the Baby Jogger Summit X3. We live an active lifestyle and are always on the go. This stroller is fabulous and fits our needs perfectly.

The assembly process of the stroller was a breeze. Aside from popping on the wheels and adding the canopy, it came almost entirely preassembled. I did get confused with how to put on the back wheels at first. However, once you realize what part to pop off-it’s super easy. I wish the directions just told you to do that, it would have saved me a few minutes of guessing! With that being said, the directions could have included words in my opinion. I’m not a huge fan of picture only instructions.

The stroller itself is beautiful. I love the gold accents. It is really a sharp and stylish looking stroller! It is sturdy and well made. The thick wheels are durable and are suitable for all terrains. The stroller has a nice sized under basket for ample storage which is a huge plus for a mom with multiple children. The stroller has a rubber handle covering instead of the fabricy covering you often see on a lot of other strollers. I like this because it would definitely weather wear and tear well and hold up nicely. The hand brake is a huge plus for me and is by far my favorite feature of the stroller! We live in a very hilly area, so it comes quite in handy while picking up speed while running down the hilly roads by us. One thing I don’t really love is the look of the cord hanging across the whole handle bar. I wish there was a way of concealing it a bit more under the handle.

I love that the stroller leaves out the guess work for folding and unfolding. There are not any hidden levers or buttons for opening and closing. There is simply a “pull here” strap in the middle of the seat. I won’t ever have to google this! I love an easy to figure out stroller!

The stroller ride itself was very smooth. My little girl loves going for short runs, long walks, or strolls simply around the driveway in it. She is always crawling up into her new stroller. It’s comfortable for her and she’s very happy in it. As I stated earlier, it folds so nicely. This makes it easy to pop in the car for errands or outings. The front wheel locks and unlocks easily to transition between jogging and stroller mode making it a very versatile stroller. We plan to get quite a bit of use out of this great stroller for all of our various needs and activities.

Please see below for a condensed pros and cons list concerning this product.

Pros:
-easy assembly
-folds and unfolds simply
-beautiful and stylish-big fan of the gold accents!
-sturdy/durable tires
-hand brake-the best feature!
-rubber handle
-smooth ride
-transitions between stroller and jogging mode with the unlocking/locking of front wheel-very versatile

Cons:
-directions need words
-brake cord-wish it was concealed (kind of gets in the way and feels awkward)

Thank you so much Stellar Product Testing Panel reviews for allowing me the opportunity to review this product. Highly recommend you checking it out!

Summit X3
Exactly what I was looking for. The only thing I don’t like it’s the new break system.

Amazing Stroller
I was lucky enough to receive this stroller from the Stellar Product Testing Panel. This is by far my favorite stroller of all times. It is so versatile, and can be used anywhere.

Every other jogging stroller I have used has a fixed front wheel making it hard to do anything other than just use it for running or exercise. This stroller however allows you to lock and unlock the front wheel making it useable for everything. I love the large wheels making any terrain seem like.no big deal.

This is also the easiest stroller to fold, you just lift it up by a handle in the seat and it folds right up making it easy to quickly get it into the car when you're on the go.

This is definitely the stroller I will be recommending to everyone.

Big fan of this jogging stroller
I was lucky enough to experience the Summit x3 in collaboration with Stellar Product Testing Panel. My baby girl is 10 mos and LOVED riding in this stroller. The set up was super easy and the one handed fold could truly not be easier. It took me a little practice to figure out turns but we got there! Strolling for walks and jogs is so smooth. The harness feels super safe and fits baby comfortably. It was easy to recline the seat and extend the canopy if desired. My husband says “that stroller looks like a Cadillac” haha, but the sleek design really does make me proud to stroll baby in it. I was concerned it might be too bulky but it fits in the trunk easily! I kept forgetting to photograph baby in it while we were out but I did snap this photo of her in our kitchen in her pajamas so you can get an idea of how baby fits in it and how comfortable she looks. I would highly recommend this stroller for anyone looking to stroll or jog due to the ease of use and style.
