Review on πŸ‘Ά Baby Jogger City Select Stroller 2016 - 16 Ways to Ride, Single to Double, Quick Fold - Quartz by Alex Smith

Revainrating 4 out of 5

After researching many strollers I made the right choice to buy this one (updated)

I've been using it for two months so far and I love it. At first the stroller was a bit noisy, creaking a little here and there, but as soon as I started using it a lot it stopped (I think it should have caught on with us). Very easy to fold and very light - I get in and out of the car quite often so it's very easy for me. However, you cannot fold it if there is something in the bottom pocket. I still don't use this seat as my baby is too small, but I use it with the Basinet luxury infant carrier and the Cybex car seat. Oh my dog loves it too - sits in the storage box when we go for a long walk and are tired - holds over 20lbs. The stroller is spacious but very easy to maneuver and fold. It is very small and fits in my 2 seater car with small trunk. The only problem with this is the button in the middle of the handle for raising or lowering the handlebars - I often push the stroller with one hand and very often I accidentally press this button and the handlebars pop out. UPDATE So my baby is almost 1.5 years old now and we are going with the seat. Love it to this day. Nothing gets scratched, the materials that make it up are very durable. We drove through the woods, on dirt roads and pushed the stroller over the trunk of my van while driving. So far the handle has broken once but my husband fixed it easily. The fabric of the seat was very easy to care for, of course your child nibbles when sitting and thus gets dirty. We're now thinking about buying a second set of seats but I can't find the right color on Revain and it seems quite expensive. I also upgraded the seat for the winter with a Baby Jogger Speed Bag which fits perfectly but is a bit fiddly to open and close - the zipper starts where the seat is folded down so little hands always think it's there is a game and try to prevent me from closing the bag. I'll update again once I've tried how it works with two kids.

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • Almost everything is fine
