The Phil & Ted Dash stroller sports the same keen functionality as their more ‘entry’ level strollers – the Classic and the Sport… but the things that set this stroller apart from Phil and Teds other strollers are its higher-end features including the addition of a padded covered bumper bar, extra storage and the high-end water resistant rip-stop materials that’s used with the canopy and seat.

Phil and Ted call this stroller the “Active Urban Inline Stroller” because the Dash stroller is really a hybrid between a stroller and a baby jogger and, as the name implies, the dash stroller is built for parents who “dash” about with their children.

Phil & Ted Jogging Stroller

The Dash stroller from Phil and Ted has 3 large wheels, for stability, and it has never-flat airless rubber tires that insure a smooth ride. The Dash stroller also has other great features like a large under-seat storage basket, a behind the seat storage pouch and a sturdy steel frame. When combined, all of these features give you a lightweight stroller that you can use around town, in shops and on crowded sidewalks, and these features also give you a stroller that you can use on your morning runs.

A feature that comes standard with good quality baby joggers is a hand operated brake that, very similar to bicycle brakes, uses a cable system that slows the rotation of the wheels. This feature might not seem like much, but if you’re jogging down a hill and if your baby jogger starts to roll faster than you can run… you’ll thank your lucky stars that you have this ‘simple’ hand brake.

Phil & Ted Double Stroller

And, finally, like most of Phil & Ted’s strollers, the Dash stroller has the single to double stroller upgrade capability. This feature lets you attach a second seat to your single stroller – this is an ideal upgrade for a growing family. The second seat add-on, which is sold separately, comes in a kit with detailed instructions – so it fairly easy to securely attach the second seat to your Dash stroller.

Why is having the upgradable seat option so important? Because, all too often, young families have to replace their original single stroller when their second child arrives. Phil & Ted strollers is the ideal, innovative, alternative for these families, instead of replacing their single stroller… they simply add the second seat – this is, by far, the most economical choice.
