Is there a difference in the height of the handles (for taller parents) in the Ignite and the Jet? I'm 6'3 & need a tall stroller???

This stroller will suit you just fine. My husband is 6'2 and he's not hunched over when pushing it. He says its comfortable. I'm 5'2 and it also works well for me.

I had both strollers, the Ignite handles are about an inch taller but also have a better angle to them . There is also more room in between the back wheels, so you shouldn't kick it when walking. I would definetly get the Ignite over the Jet.

I'm 6'2 and have had issues with all strollers being a decent height except for this one. It has worked out great. It is taller than any other umbrella stroller we have tried.

The handles on the Ignite are about 40 inches from the ground, it doesn't adjust though. I don't know if it's good for you or not, because I am extremely short. I'm 4'9" so it's a little high for me, it feels like I did a light arm workout after half an hour of walking. The stroller is very sturdy and I've gone over grass, rocks, packed and loose dirt and it wasn't a problem. I love this stroller even though I'm vertically challenged, I needed the 'workout' anyway :). Good luck in finding one that works with your height.

I've seen a few reviews from others that were 6ft2in and had no problems. So I'm going to assume it wouldn't be Bad for you either.

Yes the stroller handle is adjustable. My husband is 6ft and has no issue adjusting it to his height.

My son is 3.5 and about 40" tall. He got the maxi kick last year for Christmas at 2.5 and has been riding it since then. He does very well on it. Flies down driveways, uses the brake, turns, etc. I personally would get the maxi since it will grow with your son. I believe they both start at the same height, and although the maxi is a little bit heavier, it will last longer since the handlebar is adjustable.

The handle height is good. The stroller itself was just a little smaller than what we needed. I hope this helps. Please feel free to ask me anything as I will try to be as honest as I can.

M, Hi there, when I am out running I usually push the stroller ahead of me (like give a shove and let it roll) and run behind it, so the height of the stroller is not an issue. I stand by my review: greatest invention ever. I recommend the rain cover as well, enables you to run in the rain and in cold temperatures.

Sorry it has taken so long to get back to you , the carriage handle is adjustable to go up higher for taller ones . The handle stands two feet from the ground at the highest setting . It isn't as big of a stroller as I really wanted but it handles nice . I have an 8 year old that works with it alright but won't use it for long and she is kind of short for her age . Unless you have younger girls that will play with it I wouldn't invest in this one . It's kind of a big price for what I wanted it for . Hope this helps if you haven't already ordered it .

The handle bar tilts up or down. I am short and it is the most comfortable height I have ever had for a stroller. And when my husband, who is tall uses the stroller he can tilt the handle bar up and it's a perfect height for him. I love that feature! I do not have any complaints about this stroller in any way! It was a great purchase!

Hello, and thank you for your interest in The First Years strollers. I think you may mean the Ignite Stroller, rather than the Indigo Stroller in comparison to the Jet Stroller, as these are very similar in style and construction. The Ignite stroller is slightly larger than the Jet: Jet Stroller: 30" L x 19" W x 39.5" and weighs 11 lbs. H vs. Ignite Stroller: 34.5" L x 18.5" W x 39" H and weighs 14 lbs. Both strollers have durable frames rated for use to 50 lbs. The Ignite Stroller also features a Euro style frame.

I think that you will have to hunch over. This stroller is not very tall. I am 5'5 and the height is good for me without hunching but anyone any taller may have a problem.

I am 5'10" and my husband is 6'8" and we both use this stroller. The handle is not adjustable but my husband does not have to hunch to push it. At 5'10" I am very comfortable pushing the bob. We are not at home to measure right now.

No the Jet barely reclined at all, the Ignite has about a 5" recline, and s wider and taller seat definitely worth the extra $20

You've probably made a decision by now, but I am 2 inches taller and 10 pounds lighter and I love it. It fits in my Civic with the trunk closed. Sometimes the splash puddles up a bit, but you can fill the drainage holes with pool noodles, etc. The other day I was the last out of the river. I picked it up, tossed it in my car, and headed out of the parking lot long before all the others with "real" kayaks.

I have the 'Ignite' stroller and this bag fits but the tie is right above the handles (way less than 2 inches). I used it successfully on 6 flights now.

My three year olds head still has a tiny bit of space. We bought the baby jogger over the BOB because it does have a taller seat. On the baby jogger site it says the seat back height is- 26". It was the tallest back of all th strollers we found, and we looked around for a few months. I will say I'm extremely happy w my baby jogger city elite! My son is 42" tall and he is very comfy. We will definitely be able to use this until he doesn't need a stroller anymore.

McClaren. They make high quality strollers, and they are taller than most. My youngest is my tallest, and we bought a used McClaren that I adored!

It adds length so it helps stride. My husband is 6'6". We use the Chico stroller, it adjusts higher. But when we want to use something less bulky we use the city jogger stroller with the easy stroll handle and it's pretty comfortable for husband. I'm 5'8" and it works great for me as well. You will find that you walk sort of to the side of stroller. The handle is for one hand and is installed in center of handle bar which is a plus for longer legs
