Baby Jogger - City Mini Single

Uppa Baby G Luxe, or Baby Jogger City Mini 2. My daughters are 19, and 15 now but I had early versions of Uppa Baby Vista and it was a great stroller. Very much a BIFL quality item. Go to the store and try a bunch out and get the one with the easiest fold. We had a Maclaren Triumph stroller and it was great; so sad the company went out of business.

Yup, this is the one right here. I live in 300 year old American city with cracked sidewalks, potholes, constant construction, you name it. The Citi Mini braved it all without breaking a sweat, and gave us a lot of really good memories. Love that damn thing.

Baby Jogger City Mini 2 served us very well and we did a LOT of long distance walking

I would check whether your neighborhood has a parents Facebook group — I created a burner FB and it’s been a great way to get baby stuff. I like our City Mini because it folds up very small to take up less space in our little dc rowhouse entry way. It’s very maneuverable for getting onto the bus. However, I find it kind of annoying to get up and down our front steps. Definitely remember that a lot of “city” strollers assume you live in an elevator building. I love baby wearing for city life — I thought it would be totally beyond me to wear a fabric wrap, but with a little practice, that was my favorite way to get around until my baby was about 15 pounds. Then I switched to a low profile buckle carrier (a Happy Baby) and a ring sling around the house.

We rented a stroller on our first trip with our 7 week old. After renting again two more times before she was 14 months old, we purchased a City Mini. That’s what most people rent. It is so easy to turn, hop on or off curbs, is rather slender, plenty of storage room etc. Our daughter stopped using a stroller when she turned 4. We sold our stroller to another Disney family.

I’m weird about germs so I wiped it down each time. They were never overly dirty. It’s actually cheaper to purchase the City Mini than to keep renting it. We used it at DW and DL and other theme parks. It was also great for the walking track around our neighborhood.

When I traveled internationally with my four kids two years ago, I needed a stroller for my youngest who was two at the time. I have the Uppa Vista stroller and I really didn’t want to lug that thing around because 1) I was afraid it would get damaged. Happened to a friend of mine who had the same stroller and 2) I just didn’t want to take a bulky one. So I used a city mini stroller I had from when I had my first child 7 years prior. It was a hand me down at the time so it was in pretty used condition by that point. It was a great alternative as I didn’t care what that stroller went through on that trip. It’s definitely nice having a stroller when traveling with a baby/toddler.

Loved my City Mini, we used it for all our World & Land trips until about 2.5! I got mine for cheap off Facebook Marketplace from someone whose kids had outgrown it. Now that my girl is bigger I like the Summer 3d Lite

We’ve used Kingdom Strollers multiple times and have always had a great experience. It’s a very smooth process, reasonably priced and very clean! We have two children so we get a double but have rented the City Mini and the Bob Revolution Duallie and both were awesome.

Hell no to the Graco.  Did it with my first and hated it (live in Mtl so used it daily) Tried a few others. My recommendations are Baby Jogger CT Mini or... Uppababy. Yes Uppababy is expensive but you can resell it. I recently bought the Ridge stroller on sale for maybe $500 approx. Then bought everything else (car seat + adjusters/adapters, bassinet, bassinet stand, ganoosh, rain cover etc) from a Mom in a local parenting FB Group and paid half the cost (in good condition too). Even now those second hand items are still in good condition and could probably be resold again. A Mom friend bought Uppababy used from FB Marketplace, everything for about $700. Used it for 4 years straight (daily) and now passing it onto her friend. Uppababy seems to have a long shelf life!

City Mini. Turns on a dime, slender frame good for shopping, lives in my minivan but fit nice in a car trunk. Mine is used (3rd lady to use it in the friend group). Doesn’t fold completely upright, but it has a following among moms.
