Baby Jogger 2011 City Mini Single Stroller - Stone/Black

I really wanted to love this stroller, and did...until the baby actually arrived and we tried to use it. The strap adjustment could be easier, and I wish they'd thought to make the handle adjustable. I'm 5'4" and it comes up almost to my chest (although my 6'3" husband loves the height). I suppose I could deal with these minor complaints, but our daughter hates this stroller! She cries every time we try to strap her in. We're going shopping for something else.

So far it's a good product. Single handed folding is wonderful and works like a dream. We have a Chicco carseat and an adapter designed for the City Mini. The adapter connected to the stroller as advertised. The only thing we noticed in a few floor models and our stroller we tested was the stroller vibrates as it's pushed along, but it's not a big deal. I don't know how this may affect jogging, we don't plan to use it for jogging. It's a good product for the money, as we tried the much more expensive ones ($600-700) and found their wheels too big, the folding process wasn't convenient, and we didn't feel the substantial extra money would have resulted in an equal return in value. Also, the accessories for the more expensive strollers were costly as well. I'm sure the more expensive ones would be a higher resale, and potentially would hold up better with multiple kids, but we are gentle users of our household items, so I think we'll be able to take care of our stroller.

I just received this stroller a few days ago for my baby shower. It was very easy to assemble, you just need to snap the wheels in and attach the hood which took 5 minutes. I was worried about the color being too light but it's actually a bit darker in person which is perfect. So far I'm in love with it, very easy to push and I have attached the J. Cole bundle me right into it. It folds very easy with just a pull and very easy to re-open with one hand. Once my baby is here I will repost if any complaints but so far so good :0)

I saw this online while I was completing my registry and I just had to have it, I didn't read reviews I just loved the color and the fact that it was jogging stroller. I ended up actually getting it (I thought it would be too pricy for someone to buy me but they did) and it is amazing. My husband works a lot so I have to take the babyeverywhere I go and I can hold her in one arm and collapse the stroller AND put it in to the car all at once, how many people can say that about their current strollers! It swivels around objects wonderfully and is pretty light. Yes the storage at the bottom is a bit tiny but for how wonderful this stroller is I am willing to surpass that issue. Also yes there are no cup holders which bums me out a little more than the whole little storage issue. My baby girl is now 10 pounds and I'm still in love with this stroller. GREAT investment.

I am a nanny and I have used MANY strollers from the cheapest stroller to the European brands...others are incredibly heavy, impossible to collapse in a hurry, and have awful visors that you can never fully position to block the sun from the child's face. The City Mini is the answer to any parent or nanny's prayers. You can fold it in an instant with one hand holding a child and the other hand pulling up on the seat 'rip cord' to collapse the stroller. I take many children to the Disney theme parks and other strollers are impossible to fold quickly and load onto the parking lot trams, but the City Mini is always a breeze…light weight and easy to fold down. The cheaper jogging stroller will start to rack/wobble as you jog and often the tires deflate and wobble or break off as you jog. Save time and money and frustration and just buy the City Mini. Trust a nanny who has tried them all….this stroller is worth every penny!

I just received this stroller in the mail yesterday. It was so easy to assemble. I was extremely impressed how easy it was to fold by pulling the single strap at the center of the seat. Light weight and is easy to turn and push with one hand. My husband even loves it!

I bought this stroller when my daughter was 8 months old and it is fantastic. Just like everyone says, the quick-fold is genius! I have held my baby on my left hip and folded the stroller and placed it in my trunk with my right hand. Folds flat so it doesn't take up much room in your trunk. Lightweight so its great for traveling. Love the giant canopy - great for long walks and nice when she falls asleep (which she has many times.) Recline is a nice feature. Love the compact design, great maneuverability.
Yes, the storage basket underneath is a little small, but I don't really mind it. I bought the console which is ok.

Overall, a great stroller and fit my needs perfectly.

My husband and I did a lot of research both on the internet and "hands on". I am petite, at 5'1" and my husband is 6 ft., so naturally we needed a stroller that would fit us both. The second I pushed it I knew this was the one for me...One thing we did not want was a bulky travel system, yet we need a stroller that will grow with our newborn...After testing tons of strollers of all prices ranges and sizes, we felt this offered a lot of bang for the buck. First of all it was important that I be able to lift the stroller in and out of my trunk easily by myself, for the times when my husband is not with me. One of my favorite features is how easy it is to steer around narrow spaces, which was not the case with many of the others we test drove. Many of the other popular brands felt either flimsy or hard to manuever. The sunshade is fab and I love the large pocket for storage on the back of stroller. We also got the belly bar and parent console which are very handy add ons and make it more customized. We simply love it and I think the price is absolutely great for the overall package. The hardest decision is what color to purchase but we ultimately got this in STONE as I find it a little unique among strollers...I have ran into a lot of others who own this and LOVE it!!! Another thing to add is many celebs are seen pushing this around which adds to the fun of owning this stroller ;)...LOVE IT!!!

I absolutely love this stroller! I waited to buy a stroller for my daugher (just used the snap 'n go for the first few months with the car seat), and then bought this when she was 6 months old. No regrets!

The one-handed fold is just that - you can fold with one hand, while holding your baby with the other. Folds neatly and pretty compact - fits great into the car. Much smaller than other strollers when folded.

Accessories to get: love the roll bar (can hook toys to it and my daughter holds on when we go for walks), got the Sunshine Kids Buggy Buddy (cheaper) and it works great. For the price of the stroller, would have been nice if a cup holder were included, but have seen more expensive strollers with even less.

The basket underneath can be a pain to get to, so don't use it too much. Like the mesh holder on the back of the seat to store a blanket, etc.

Use for walks (don't jog with it - don't think it's recommended for this one), both on sidewalks and on trails in the park. Very easy to manuver around. No problem using at the mall when shopping either.

Overall - love it and would definitely recommend.

Very glad that I bought this instead of the travel system. The stroller is lighter than the strollers that come with the travel system and it collapses with the pull of one strap. I bought the car seat adapter so that I could use it with my infant car seat. The car seat snaps on just as easily as it does in the car.
