  "title": "Open-box jogging strollers: running suitability and return terms",
  "question": "Are open-box or returned jogging strollers a good value, and what return terms apply?",
  "answer": "UPPAbaby Ridge V2: The Ridge V2 is stable at running pace and on gravel, sand, and grass thanks to never-flat tyres, a locking front wheel, and a long wheelbase. Open-box products are final sale and not eligible for return or exchange. The store page says open-box purchases include a 1-year manufacturer's warranty.\nThule Urban Glide 3 (single): A reviewer shows the 16-inch rear wheels and explains that the front wheel can be fixed by turning a knob with a lock icon, which lengthens the stroller for a smooth run, and that a small dial adjusts tracking; unlocked, it swivels and can be pushed with one finger indoors. Open-box products from this store are final sale and not eligible for return or exchange. Testers stopped recommending this model as a jogger after finding a safety sheet in the box saying it is 'not suitable for running'. Thule replied that the wording is required in some countries, that the model meets ASTM F833 in the US and Canada and is designed for jogging, and that the front wheel must be locked for jogging. The site still records its run-ability test scores as very high.\nThe checked facts contain no price information, so value cannot be confirmed from them.",
