Travel system question

Torn between 2 travel systems: Graco FastAction Fold Jogger Click Connect Travel System and the baby jogger City Mini travel system.

I like the ease of how they close, just wanted to see if anyone preferred one over the other


Thanks

Travel system question

i have a baby jogger city select and my sister has the city mini GT. We love them both- I think it's contructed better and lasts longer than the graco systems. The wheels on the graco strollers aren't as great and wear down quickly from what others have told me

I may be in the minority but I hate my city mini. I find it difficult to steer and the basket is tiny. I avoid using it whenever possible and used my snap and go a ton and then a cheaper umbrella stroller. I have a b agile double which is a very similar style and have an easier time steering one handed that double than the city mini single.

My sister has the graco modes travel system and I like that a lot. The basket is huge, it can be used as a snap and go without the seat, and the seats can face either direction. She's beaten it up pretty good and it's held up well.

Re: Travel system question

Just purchased the Grace modes travel system.. love the convenience of it being a snap and go for the infant seat and love that the baby can face you or forwards.. so many options and great reviews too!

ETA: I need cup holders and it's annoying that the city mini doesn't have that or a child's tray.. this is my 3rd baby and I can't imagine not having that when baby is older.. the attachments city mini sells aren't that great

I have the city mini gt and love it. It is the only stroller I have used for my 3.5 year old dd--I used it with the Britax infants seat and the adaptor. The stroller handles well and is easy to fold. The stroller does not come with a tray but you can buy one--it is well made and has a cup holder that actually keep the cup in place. They also sell a parent console and cup holder attachment.
I use the stroller a lot and it is in great shape--the fabric on the stroller can be machine washed making it easy to keep clean. The basket could be bigger but I like the citi mini cooler that attaches to the frame to hold food and snacks when we go out.
