It has a built-in legrest, an upright, comfortable seat with adjustable recline and a full coverage canopy with ventilation that makes it a comfortable ride all-day, everywhere. New mum and weekly runner, Lauren Howe, tested it with her toddler, Gaia.

What I love most about this is how easy it is to fold this up. What you do is reach right under the footrest twist and fold. To unfold this it's just as easy. There is a tab on the side, you flip it out, pull up and snap. With this stroller, it can stand upright, but there's a couple factors.

I got and I was so excited to have the amazing push of a true double stroller. I had a single to double before and you just don't get that same push as you do on a double and especially a double jogging stroller. What these strollers have in common is they are both jogging strollers. They have adjustable handlebars, air filled tires that are the exact same size.

Thule for sure! I absolutely love mine. I live in the country and it’s very rough terrain where I go for walks and it works perfectly. I’ve even taken it on hikes that reccomend ‘no strollers’ because it’s too rough of terrain and it was a breeze. I couldn’t reccomend Thule enough!

The Thule Urban Glide double was the first all-terrain jogging stroller we owned as a family and oh my goodness, we were so impressed. The quality of Thule's materials, their products, the push is incredible. And now I've been reviewing the single jogging stroller and I actually have a whole bunch of jogging stroller reviews over on my channel as well as a best jogging stroller post.

So, this is going to be your Urban Glide 3 stroller. It's your first review. So, here you go. I am about like 5'3" for comparison. So, you have the nice stroller right here and what we have because Luke is a little too small.

Unboxing and setting up the Urban Glide 3 is very easy. First, unpack the two wheels. Then the stroller body. And then the canopy. Now to install the wheels, just press down on the center button while inserting the wheel. Both wheels are identical, so just grab closest to you. Next, we're going to clip on the canopy. There's a slit on each side of the main frame.

So, with a running stroller, you want it to be a smooth ride, you want it to be stable, and I think the Thule does really well at this by having a nice wide stance. So, they have two large wheels on the back to give it a nice wide stance, and then they have a smaller wheel, still not tiny, at the front uh for maneuverability. But, the best thing about these wheels is that they're air-filled, so th

is actually the Thu Urban Glide 3. Okay, so this brand caught my eye and I'm so excited about it because not only is it functional, it's a jogging stroller. You can take it around to um through all different terrain. So, if you're active and you like to go to the park and things of that nature, I think you need to look into this brand. Um, my mother-in-law actually gifted it to me for Christmas.

For families who drive frequently, run errands, or take daily walks, it keeps transitions smooth and minimizes the classic fuss factor of moving a sleeping infant. As your baby grows, the adapter's role naturally changes. Once your child exceeds 9 kg, you'll need to move to the stroller's regular seat setup.

While it's lightweight, which is great for portability, the cover can sometimes feel a little flimsy if you're not careful. On a particularly heavy downpour, I noticed that the cover could sag a little, and I had to adjust it to make sure it fully protected the stroller.

I really like our Urban Glide 3, but I'm not sure I'd want it as my only stroller. The bottom basket can get kind of hard to reach because there has to be the clearance for your feet, and the seat doesn't go fully upright. It's so smooth to maneuver and overall I really like it, but I also like having our Uppababy Vista V2 for more day-to-day use.

The tray is a bit on the smaller side, so if you're expecting it to hold a large sippy cup or multiple snacks at once, it might feel a little cramped. Also, while the material is easy to clean, it does show dirt pretty easily.

We have it and love it! The downside is that it’s bulky so it isn’t great in a grocery store etc. But, we love it for daily walks/ excursions especially with rougher surfaces. The bassinet attachment is pretty spacious too so I think it will fit baby for a while ( ours is currently 7 weeks and takes up about 1/2 of it lengthwise).

While it offers excellent protection from rain and wind, the coverage is a bit limited on the sides. So, if you're in an area with heavy rain or if the stroller is parked for a while, you might need additional protection. Also, the transparent material, while great for visibility, can get a little foggy when exposed to moisture for extended periods, which might block the view for your little one.

That said, not everything is perfect. The stroller is a bit bulky when folded, so if you've got a tiny trunk or live in a small apartment, be prepared for some Tetris. Also, while the seat recline is adjustable, it's not fully flat.
