Baby Jogger City Mini
The City Mini is a full-size stroller that doesn't stand out in any way other than the fact that it's extremely light and compact when folded. It also scores well in all our categories. However it doesn't rank quite as well as its peers due to the poor placement of the peek-a-boo and storage that is somewhat restricted.
But, it's an excellent stroller, and one of our top choices for families who need something that will get them through daily use and occasional adventure. It has a pretty wide footrest and is cushioned, which means that children will be comfortable. The seat reclines to a flat position, but we found that it was a bit tricky to do and required two hands. The adjustable support for the calf is a great feature that will allow your child to lift their feet when they're tired.
Like the other strollers we have reviewed, the City Mini has a huge canopy that is UV50 and which parents love. The sun shade is beautifully constructed and can be pulled all the way down which is great because it will keep your little one completely safe from the sun without the need to keep tucking it back in the right spot.
Another great aspect of the City Mini is that it is able to be converted into a double stroller by attaching an add-on kit. You can choose any Baby Jogger car-seat and create an entire travel system from the beginning. The only downside is that adding a second seat to the stroller alters its appearance and feel. Some parents might be unable to manage this once they become accustomed to it.
Another alternative to the City Mini is the City Mini GT Double Stroller. It is a bit more expensive than the single City Mini, but it includes extra features like "forever-air" rubber tyres. It also has suspension, which is suitable for off-road adventures. It comes with an adjustable handlebar and a parking brake that can be operated by hand and a more user-friendly design than the regular City Mini.
