Does anyone have a recommendation for a good sturdy jogging stoller? It will be used for home use only so size probably doesn't matter much.
 
What will you be using it for--will you want a swivel wheel? Budget?

I got the last of my particular model at Toys R Us in Melbourne.

It is a Baby Trend Expedition. It has been with us twice to WDW. I did use it for running briefly--but the whether has proven to be too hot so I am indoors on the treadmill for a bit. It is now our primary double stroller. The seats recline and the "bonnet" cover actually adjusts so that at all times you can keep the sun out of the eyes of the kids.

I like that it has the larger tires which is supposedly nicer for running. But don't recall where I heard that.

We like it. Not sure what TRU is stocking now. I paid $180 for the first one and $130 for the 2nd (I ran over the first one and snatched the last one which was reduced b/c it was last in stock and had no box and no manual. I had the manual, so no biggie). So for my total cost--I could have had a nicer one...but b/c I accidently backed into mine in the garage--I am glad I didn't have a nicer one b/c it was easier to replace.
 
A site one of my friends recommended when I saw this post and asked was: http://www.joggingstroller.com/ they figured out what would work best by questions asked and then went and found the best deal on it elsewhere. She didn't remember the name of the type they had.
 
I can't remember what kind my single is--it is supposedly one of the "better" joggers out there. I HATE that thing. I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE my double jogger. It works wonderfully at high speeds (jogging) and when warming up/ cooling down (walking). The kids are WAY more comfortable in it too--it's a Schwinn. Not the Safari, but the model up.

I got our jogger from there...we have the Dreamer Design Manhattan. My DD is 6yo, 48" and 60 lbs, but still needed a stroller-as-wheelchair. I wasn't ready to spend that kind of $$$ yet for a condition she may outgrow and I decided I'd have better resale with a jogger than a W/C anyway. She fits pretty well in it. It is a bus, but I really like it, very smooth, lots of room. I can't comment on the harness b/c we've never used it.
