Very noisy wheels disappointing for a thule product and the design/fitting when folding is clunky. You expect better when you spend that much

Disappointing and Loud
April 3, 2021
This is not worth the purchase! I am normally a huge Thule fan when it comes to strollers (I have bought three different ones for different purposes - and have loved them) but the Glider Board is a huge let down. While the installation is quick and easy (I attached it to the Spring using the adapter), this was the only positive thing to say about it. The product is loud and does not travel smoothly, especially when my child is on it. The storage of the board is awkward when on the stroller and it has to be taken off in order to fold the stroller to get it into the car/store in the garage. I do not recommend purchasing this product.

Glider Board

We love the function of the glider board overall. It rattles when there is no kid on it and it sticks out far enough where I feel like I need to walk to the side of the stroller so I don't kick it. We have the Thule Spring, it may be a better fit on other models. Don't forget to buy the glider bar attachment if you have the Spring!

LOUD

Agree with the reviews about this being extremely loud on anything other than completely smooth surfaces. It's basically not usable on normal sidewalks unless you want people to hate you. Skate wheels would have been an easy fix especially for the price and we may still try to change them out if we can figure it out. Bummer!

Good board

Great little addition to the Thule Spring (or Sleek) for your older child to ride. My only complaint is the fact that it needs to be take off every time you want to fold the Thule spring.

Not great with the Spring

Thought it was the perfect solution for new baby and toddler for around the city and easy in the car to go with the new Spring. Same as the other review. Your feet hit the board making it difficult to walk. It the handlebar went out another notch I feel like this problem could be solved.

For as nice as Thule's strollers are, I'm disappointed with this glider board. It makes a ruckus hitting every crack in the sidewalk (even relatively smooth walkways). For this price, they could have put nice quiet bearings and skate wheels on this product and it would have made a huge difference.
I think I'd rather listen to my daughter complain about walking than the noise this product makes. haha
We also found this product difficult to walk with when attached. You overextend your reach, and your feet want to be where the product is. We tended to walk next to the stroller to avoid kicking it. This is likely true with all of these glider boards on the market, but just something that would have been nice to consider before purchase.
We have the Thule Spring 2020 stroller which required an additional adapter. The adapter isn't the easiest to take on and off and is needed if you plan on folding the stroller. Also, would have been nice if Thule called out a place to mount the flip-up tether. All in all, the compatibility feels like an afterthought with the Spring.
With the distances we walk around town, we'll still likely still keep this product, but hack an upgrade to make it more pleasant to use.
