Our Analysis, Comparisons and Test Results
Ride & suspension
Five, ninth of 9. The ride is extremely stiff. This is a stroller for smooth surfaces only.
Tracking & steering at pace
Five, ninth in this guide. The locked front wheel wobbles noticeably at faster paces, which is the main reason it is a budget option for light, occasional neighborhood jogging.
Braking & safety
Six, ninth in this guide. The notes say nothing about the brakes and the listing does not describe them, so the score rests on the stroller as a whole.
Fold & transport
Six, joint sixth in this guide. The notes say nothing about the fold. The maker lists 24 lb and a folded size of 24 × 33.5 × 15.5 inches.
Kid comfort
Six, ninth of 9. The notes do not cover the seat. The maker lists an adjustable canopy with a covered sunroof and a child tray with cup holders.
Should You Buy the Baby Trend Expedition Jogger?
Buy it for easy loops on smooth paths if you want a jogging stroller on a tight budget.
Do not count on it for hills or rough ground. The notes say nothing about the brakes, and the maker's listing doesn't describe them either.
The same five criteria applied to every jogging stroller in this guide. That makes the comparison fair, and it makes the choice yours: pick for the use you cannot avoid, not the one you aspire to.
