City Mini 2011 opposed to CM 2010- Any difference?

Outside of the price?

I have to get one, a double and wanted to see if it really made a difference and well to save some $.

TIA!

Re: City Mini 2011 opposed to CM 2010- Any difference?

From what I've read, the 2011 comes with boards in the seats to make the backs straighter and less hammocky and some kind of strap to make the seats more upright. This was in response to some complaints that the seats weren't comfortable for their kids and that they didn't sit upright enough.

DS wouldn't tolerate the 2010 model at all. I am tempted to try him in the 2011 when they get it at BBB because I really like this stroller too!

Errrrrr

They should have it soon. I ordered it (from pishposhbaby.com) and they said it would ship in January- when they came in, so i dont think any stores really have it yet.

I had the 2010 city mini single. DS was ok in it.

I changed to the 2011 city mini single and he's MUCH better in it. Definitely less slouchy (comes with the board, but if you buy the 2010 model, you can order the board for like $10 or so from Baby Jogger). Also, it comes with a strap to make the seat sit upright. This, I think, is the biggest difference. When they're very little, I don't think it matters that much, but once they are sitting up more and want to see it all, a lot of kids like to sit up straight. The 2010 doesn't have the option to sit upright, it's always at a distinct angle, even at the highest setting. The 2011 goes more upright.

I think there's another difference too, but I'm blanking right now.

If you don't mind either of those things, I would save the $ and get the 2010 model, especially since it's a double. I'm happy with the 2011 model.

Re: City Mini 2011 opposed to CM 2010- Any difference?

Like other have stated already they fixed the slouching problem with the 2011 model. I would get this one.

Re: City Mini 2011 opposed to CM 2010- Any difference?

I have the 2010 model. I am not going to reiterate what the PPs said, but I can say once I put the $10 board in, which you will need for it and learned how to pull the strap super tight, it goes very upright for DD.

I would get the 2011. It works out to be the same price.
