The Terrain is a beast! In a good way...
By Kristin07
Finally, Mountain Buggy has come out with their answer to the BOB Revolution, and it's fabulous! I'm not much of a runner; I only jog/walk. But I take hikes on some very rough and hilly terrain. So I need a tough stroller with 16" back tires and suspension. There is really only three stroller choices with 16" back wheels and a front swivel wheel-- the Terrain, the BOB Revolution, and the Baby Jogger Summit XC. And I've tried all 3. I thought the Summit would be the right choice for me, because I like the easy fold and wonderful features of my Baby Jogger City Mini. But the Summit didn't seem to be that solid or that great of quality. The Summit has a lot of plastic parts, including the front fork. It also didn't have adjustable tracking like the Terrain or the BOB. Plus, it is tall, with a high handlebar that is fixed. I'm only 5'2", so it was not comfortable for me. So I returned the Summit. Then I bought the Terrain. But I also recently ordered the 2011 BOB Revolution SE-- which I ended up selling. I preferred the look and features of the Terrain over the BOB.I was hesitant to buy the Terrain because of the price. But it was well worth the expense. It is a very solid stroller. It pushes like a dream; I can easily push this with one hand when it is fully loaded. It is not remotely tippy. It easily handles rocky terrain. It is the ONLY stroller available that had everything on my wish list (Adjustable handlebar, 16" wheels, handbrake, plus a flat recline).Pros:Adjustable handlebar that accomodates the shortest and tallest of parents (neither the BOB or Summit have this)Flat recline, so it will accomodate a newborn (Also will take a Mountain Buggy carrycot or carseat adapter. The Summit recline is ALMOST flat but not quite, the BOB recline is only suitable for around 3 months and up)Adjustable tracking (BOB has this too, Summit does not)Handbrake (Summit has, BOB does not)Large, ACCESSIBLE basket (Summit basket is virtually impossible to access from the back, BOBs is good-sized)Comes with 2 water bottle holders and a bumper bar (Summit and BOB come with no accessories)Mesh pockets in seat for the child (BOB has, Summit does not)Large canopy that detaches and can be moved into any position -- "follow the sun" (neither BOB or Summit have this feature)Can take a riding board for a 2nd childEasy, no rethread harnessStanding fold, easy to put in a closet for storage, or pull behind you when transporting.Cons:This stroller is LARGE, and tall-- and heavier than the BOB or Summit. A short person may feel dwarfed by it. At 5'2", I had to get used to it. But the handlebar can be adjusted to a comfortable height for me.The fold is very large and long too. Bigger than the BOB or Summit. If you have a small trunk, it may not fit. It fits easily in the back of my Subaru Forester.No snack tray option, which BOB and Summit do have. No biggie, I attached tethers Booginhead SippiGrip, Black on the bumper bar for my child's sippy and snack cups.No storage pocket in the back of the seat either, which BOB and Summit have. I suggest getting a stroller cup holder/organizer like this that will not interfere with the handbrake, and will give you a little more storage. JL Childress Cups 'N Cargo Stroller Organizer, BlackNo other color offered besides Flint! Kind of drab and boring. You can purchase the Mountain Buggy liners (pricey at $50!) to jazz it up a bit. I bought one of these Maclaren liners in blue/red, and it fits pretty well-- Maclaren Seat Liner, Poppies Silver Birch/MajestyMy biggest complaint is the recline feature-- which consists of 2 straps, and takes 2 hands to do. Then when you bring the seat back to the upright position, you have to push the excess fabric behind the seat. Very annoying! Luckily, we do not have to use the recline very often.The BOB also has a 2 strap recline. The Summit has a 1 strap-- very easy to recline with 1 hand, need 2 to return the seat to the upright position.So the Terrain has it flaws, but it's quality and features more than make it up to me. It's the biggest and most expensive (at full retail price anyway) of the 3 strollers, but well worth it in my opinion.

By Lunamiela
I have taken quite some time before posting a review. I have now had my Terrain for about 4 months. I really wanted to see how the Terrain handled in a variety of settings. As usual - Mountain Buggy has hit it out of the ballpark!I recently took it on a stroll around my neighborhood - 2 days after a huge Chicago blizzard. Some stretches of sidewalk were plowed, but some were not completely plowed or not plowed at all. While no stroller can plow through 2 feet of snow, the Terrain was able to plow through snowbanks about a foot high. Several inches of snow or slush were not an issue at all. In the deepest snowbanks, I fixed the front wheel facing outward and just plowed through. It was a bumpy ride, but the Terrain's wheels just cut through the snow. In really deep snow, I just turned the Terrain around on its back wheels and got through. The stroller is just made for snowy conditions. I was really impressed.Besides tackling blizzards, the stroller is also great for jogging. It has a handbreak, a 12 inch front tire that can be fixed for running and large 16 inch back tires. The suspension is great and the seat is firm but padded for a comfortable ride.The stroller is large but has a fairly flat fold when you remove the back tires (which is easy to do).Unlike Bob strollers, it can accommodate infants because the seat has full recline and it also takes a carrycot. The stroller has a 77 pound limit but even I was able to sit in it comfortably!Now on to my list of pros and cons.Pros:amazing steeringeffortless pushsolid framesuspensionadjustable handlebar (no foam)16 inch rear tires12 inch front tire that locks inward or outward (take that Bob!) - locking the wheel outward gives you added stability when going through really rough terrainlarge follow the sun canopy with mesh visorlarge zippered basket so you don't lose essentials when you runhandbrakenice padded and firm seatvery flat fold without rear tiresstanding foldtwo water bottle holdersnumerous mesh pockets in seat and canopy for kid's and parent's essentialsflat reclinetakes carrycot for infantsgreat buckle system (easy for parents, difficult for the child)no re-thread harness77 pound weight capacitycomes with bumper barCons:large footprint but this is expected of a jogging strollerheavy (altough you don't feel the weight at all when you push it)large flat fold - not the easiest stroller to pop in and out of a carhigh price - although totally worth it in my opinionThe Terrain is perfect for those who (i) want a really tough jogging, all terrain or hiking stroller for outdoors, (ii) live in the countryside, (iii) are ultra sporty moms or dads, (iv) live in snowy locales or (v) appreciate a gorgeous tough as nails stroller!The Terrain definitely earns its moniker. It is beautiful and stylish yet it is quite tough and solid.If you are looking for the ultimate outdoor stroller that looks great while taking on any kind of terrain, this is it.

Terrain Issues, but Still Recommend to Some
By John
I am writing this post after owning the Terrain for eight months and having contacted customer service in both the U.S. and New Zealand.Let me share the positives first - adjustable handle (huge asset and the only buggy I could find with one), apparently sensible design, good nylon material, great adjustable seating surface.Beside the items noted below, every thing else works pretty darn well and I recommend the Terrain to all those who are not bothered by such items as described below.Unfortunately Mountain Buggy neglected to focus on the details in its design and definitely did not harmonized the realities of the design with its marketing.First (and as also noted by other users on Mountain Buggy's user forum), running with the Terrain is challenging with the wheel locked in either the forward or backward position since the claimed precision front wheel adjuster is patently useless given the wheel lock mechanism lets the front wheel wiggle back and forth over one-half inch in each direction. It is as if the "wheel lock engineering group" did not get the memo that the $500 Terrain unit was going to have a "precision wheel adjuster" included to the front wheel which wold be highlight as part of their marketing campaign. I inquired with the U.S. customer service representatives and they really are not knowledgeable about the Terrain; so I called New Zealand in my effort to figure out if this was a unit defect, design flaw, or somehow a design intention for some esoteric reason that escaped reasonable logic. The question ultimately went unanswered, but upon taking the front wheel assembly apart, it is clearly not a unit defect but a design element that is very much a faulty one and indeed does render the precision front wheel adjuster to the status of the fins on cars from the 1950's, but not nearly as pretty.Additionally, when the front wheel is not locked, it does not rotate very freely as the assembly is not composed of any real bearings but rather wear surfaces that include an unmachined rough casting and plastic compressed together with a threat and nut. With some patients, filing of the casting, and additional grease, you too can have a smoother front wheel.The last odd item is that the unit made an horrible screeching noise, which took a while to figure out. The break cable's spring, where it interfaces with the break drum does not have the proper clearance; consequently the spring can touch the break drum as it rotates making the screeching noise. Again, if you have a screeching noise on your Terrain, you too can take the assembly apart and grind the cable offset to add additional clearance and resolve the problem.For a unit that costs over $500, one should not expect such details to not have been resolved. Mountain Buggy claims to have tested their units; well, they may, but not the production units or possibly not while running.I have effectively given up on customer service since their suggestion of sending me a warranty replacement unit will not fix the issues I have raised since the issues are engineering design issues.Did I mention the adjustable handle is really great for a family of mixed height runners!Kindest regards.
