I am sure i am not the only one that goes through this! I am looking for a jogging stroller, but i have specific features that i am looking for. They are as follows: Good price (under $200), Lightweight, Multi position canopy and reclining seat, padded seats and easy to fold. If there is anyone that knows the perfect stroller for me i would appreciate it. If not let me know which one works for you! Thanks

If you're just using the stroller for walking, Baby Trend makes a couple of really good ones with all the features you mentioned. They fold in half very easily, and the front wheel can pop off if you need it to.
If you're going to run, or speed walk, you'll want something with shocks. For the price you're looking to spend, Reebok makes some good strollers with shocks that folds (at least 2 are under $200, there may be more).
Either company is great, what you need to make sure of is that your wheels are balanced - if one of the tires has more air, the whole stroller will pull to that side & make it very uncomfortable for you to use.
As far as lightweight, you may need to adjust your thinking slightly if you're thinking lightweight = travel stroller - joggers tend to use more steel than aluminum, so they are probably going to be as heavy, if not heavier, than your travel system. The BT and Reebok strollers run 20-25 pounds. There are strollers that use more aluminum, but you're going to look at a $300-400 price range, unless you can find one at good will or ebay or a garage sale.
Alot of people used to recommend the Bob strollers, but I've heard a lot of complaints about them (they don't fold, they're a nightmare to assemble, etc), so I really don't know anything about them. They may have made their strollers more user friendly recently.
Good luck!

Here's the one that we have: http://www.amazon.com/InStep-Safari-TT-Single-Stroller/dp/B000EI2O3Y/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1/002-3892462-3569664?ie=UTF8&s=sporting-goods&qid=1176315634&sr=8-1 .
Under $200: $125 with free shipping. Lightweight: well, I can lift it. Multiple positition canopy: yes. Reclining seat: fully reclinable. Padded seat: yes. Easy to fold: yes, and fits in the trunk of my Corolla.
Also: choice of swivel or locked front tire, adjustable handle bar (I'm 5'3", my dad is 6'3" and we can adjust it so that we can both use it comfortably), basket under the seat, I also have an optional accessory that is a sun shade that goes over and around the front of the stroller to block UV and sun. And weight limit is about 50lbs.

good day! The BOB Revolution is with out doubt one among the finest to manuever. Plus the Phil and Ted's and the Valco stroller have 12" wheels each and each of how around the position the BOB has 16" in decrease back and 12" in the front. the bigger the wheel the less difficult it really is to push the stroller. i ought to ought to assert to flow with the BOB.
