Baby Jogger 2011 City Select Single Stroller - Ruby

Great stoller for all parents. I like that with a simple click you can adjust the stroller for your needs which constantly change. In the beginning you can have your newborn face you and your toddler facing out. Later on they both can face out. On a good day when they are feeling friendly they can face eachother, and if I go out with only one child, I can use it as a single. As far as it being bulky...not really unless you are comparing it to an umbrella or single stroller. All double strollers take space and are a little heavy. I had to return another stroller because it was too hard to push but I can guide this stroller with one hand.

The only down side is you have to buy everything seperately. I bought the second seat, baby tray, and parent tray.

I have a 15 months old and just had another baby the city select stroller has been really helpful since I can put my todler and the chair for my baby. The stroller rides really smooth and works really good for a petite mom like me.

First off the Ruby color is gorgeous! When I first got it the front wheel kept locking to could no longer turn unless I stopped and unlocked it. I called Baby Jogger and they sent out a replacement immediately! Awesome company to deal with, BUT the replacement wheel did the same thing.
I guess I just got a bum stroller.

Other than the wheel issue though, it was just too heavy for me to lift in and out of my caravan. Sometimes the latches that release the frame for unfolding would stick. A HUGE downfall, ALL accessories are extra. They don't even provide a cup holder. You'd think with it being so expensive they could at least include one.
I loved that you could use this for 1 or 2 kids but pushing around a 14mth & 3yr old was work. It seemed to us like pushing a mini bus.
My daughter was also bumping her head on the sides of the stroller and there really isn't enough padding to prevent them from banging their head. We had to purchase an additional piece for cushion.
We ended up with a Britax B-ready.
I wanted to love it, I really did!! Good Luck.

I love this stroller. It turns easily and I am able to navigate tight spaces without trouble. It also folds easily for storage. The ability to accomodate one or two children or the same or different age is great. I also have the bassinet piece and the car seat adapter and all the pieces fit together easily and the connections are secure. My only complaints would be that it should have a safety strap as it can really gain speed going down hills and the parent console doesn't seem to fit the handles so there is no drink holder.

I love my City Select. For the longest time I wanted the Onyx color but it was always out of stock. I finally settled on the Ruby and I am so glad I did, it's such a great color. The stroller is so sturdy yet agile. It turns on a dime and I can maneuver through big crowds with a breeze. They say you need a bassinet attachment to use for under 6 months, but the seat reclines all the way back, so you don't. My son has been using it since birth and we just place a blanket under him and buckle him in. Don't waste your money on the $90 bassinet! I love taking my son on walks and I get asked about it all the time.

I knew I wanted a Baby Jogger...I was torn between the City Mini, City Elite and this one. I was completely sold on the City Select when I went to visit my girlfriend who owns this stroller. She let me use it with my daughter (2 1/2 year old) for a day, and explained to me why this one is so superior to the side-by-side. I love that I have the option of making this a single stroller if my daughter isn't interested in strolling around, while my son (soon to be born) must be in the stroller. I love that I have a single and double stroller all-in-one. Not to mention it is such a smooth ride. It is the Lexus of Strollers ( I own one, so I know ;)

This is a great stroller. It handles very well, and maneuvers great. I think my 1 year old is more comfortable in this stroller than he was in his Chicco Cortina stroller. I will be using this as a double when my baby us born in 1 month. The only thing is you have to buy the parent console ($29) in order to have a place to put your keys, cell phone, etc. And it's a bit heavy. I wish it stood up on it's own when folded like my old stroller. But I like how the break is a hand break instead of having to bend over and do it, or use my feet on all 4 wheels, its just one click of the hand. And I like how when you add the second seat, it only adds about 6 more inces to the length of the stroller. It's not as long as other tandem strollers.I got it in red and it looks really clean and crisp. Overall, I love it.
