Baby Jogger City Select

Hello all Chat Icon

We are having twins and i have been trying to decide what stroller to register for. I looked at the double citi mini, i looked at the double bumble ride and i finally looked at the Baby Jogger City Select. I really liked the Baby Jogger City Select. Does anyone have it and can tell me if they like it or not?

Does any twin mommy have a stroller they absolutely love and would recommend to new moms?

Re: Baby Jogger City Select

I have a couple of strollers:

snap and go - loved it, very convenient highly recommend from about 0-6months (some babies maybe longer)

city mini double and city select.
As far as what I would recommend, its really a tough call. The city mini double is easy to move and pretty light weight. However its sometimes a little wide and the storage underneath stinks (that might have improved with a new model)
the citi select is narrow and again easy to move. The storage underneath is great, however it is bulkier and a pain to put together each time (I use this stroller while out and about).

I no longer have the snap and go, but I have both the citi mini and city select and you are welcome to check them out. I am in Nassau county. FM me if you want.

Re: Baby Jogger City Select

i have yet to get a stroller bc i cannot decide on one either.

I am holding out bc I heard that the new Baby Jogger City Mini 2011 will be released in January and the storage basket will be larger, along with some other new features. I figure by then my twins will be 7 months so I will no longer be using the snap-n-go so its perfect timing.

i have been using the double snap-n-go for quick errands and i also have an older model Peg Perego (it was my sisters) that I use for walks. it is from before they did the 60/40 seats which is why i wont even consider the newer model...not practical for twins.

If I am not crazy about the new city mini I will most likely go with the City Select. I found it so easy to maneuver!!! However, my issue with it is that it will probably be a PITA to get in and out of the car and to assemble. It seems like its too much work. I prefer something thats fairly simple to get in and out.

Let me know what you decide. I need some help also!!

Re: Baby Jogger City Select

i definitely recomend the snap and go for the first 6 months.. it was SO easy and great to get around .
(you can have mine its in great condition)

i got the City mini just a month ago and i LOVE it.. i am all about the way it rides and maneuvers , i don't really care about the storage underneath, i have the mommy hook and everything gets hooked on there whatever can't fit underneath.
the stoller rides like a dream.. so light its unbelieveable! i recomend this stroller to everyone .

i do like the city select, (luvmytwins) showed me hers and showed me how to assemble.. i just can't see myself doing that everytime i go out.
i have no patience.. its hard enough to get both the kids out and into the stroller. haha.

Re: Baby Jogger City Select

thank you so much ladies! i almost want to get both! (city mini and Baby Jogger City Select) but i know that's crazy. Chat Icon the Baby Jogger City Select looks like a great idea without the babies in it lol im worried if it will be as great when my twins are actually here.

my next question would have been which infant car seat u guys used with the Baby Jogger City Select. i chose the chicco and i wanted to see if anyone had that one too or something better to suggest.

in the meantime im going to look at the snap and go all you ladies love.

thank you so much once again Chat Icon

Re: Baby Jogger City Select

i wanted to add i have the city select and i love it,
i dont find it a pain to put together, i assume people are talking about putting the seats on each time, and its not that hard to get in and out of the car, its a little heavy but i imagine any double stroller would be,
