Baby Jogger City Mini

I’m a Londoner and live in a flat on the third floor and have been using the buggy for two weeks. Previously I used just a Baby Bjorn. Like others I agonised for days over which buggy. Eventually I went for this one - sold on its easy fold mechanism and comfort, plus on recommendation by a friend and the fact I didn’t find one negative review for this buggy.

This buggy is ideal for anyone living in a house that drives (like my friend that recommended it). I would NOT recommend this to anyone who needs to negotiate stairs on a daily basis or a frequent user of the London Underground.

I’ve been struggling getting up and down flights of stairs with shopping, baby and this heavy buggy. The tube, where there is no disabled access has been a real challenge - stairs and escalators have been an awful experience. I’m persevering though as I’m happy with all other aspects. I’ve attached a guitar strap, which has helped somewhat so when folded I can fling it over my shoulder to have two hands for the baby.

I hope this review helps any decision!

Great piece of kit. Deliberated for a long time over which pram to buy but so glad I did. This is by far the easiest and most dynamic pram out there at the minute. Travels well. Ours has been on over thirty flights and hasn't a scratch. Easy to put up one handed. Light and compact. Highly manoeuvrable and easy to jog with. The extendible hood provides excellent shading from sun, rain, wind and more importantly light. Onto baby two now and honestly can't fault it...

I love this buggy. I've had it since before my youngest was born, so had a toddler in it, then a newborn. I used a maxi cosi cabriofix carseat adapter with it initially. She's now one, and the buggy is still going strong. I looked at getting a mall stroller type buggy recently, and was amazed to find that they were actually heavier and harder to manouvre - I can push this easily with one hand both in a shopping centre with nice smooth floors and on the school run over bumpy pavements, which is essential when the other hand has a child and a dog to keep hold of. It's amazingly easy to fold - truly one handed, has a decent shopping basket underneath, and a fantastically big sunshade. I wholeheartedly recommend this buggy!!

This buggy is fantastic and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a easy to fold, lightweight buggy. We had the bassinet attachment when our little boy was little which was great, and well worth the the money as you also got the carseat attachment things, which we still have on even though we've reattached the standard seat. The standard seat is fine, but I felt much better having our son in the bassinet or carseat facing forward until he was about 16 weeks, and we then swapped it for the standard seat.

The only pitfalls are the front wheel sometimes gets stuck on the under basket if it is too full, and I did wish for a little more suspension over cobbles or stones when my little man gets jolted around but for the price you pay this buggy is fantastic.

I love it that you can actually direct granparents etc to collapse it in a second, that means it must be easy to collapse!

We've taken this buggy to Australia and back and its been great in the sun (albeit I wished we had of got a sand colour rather than black) and also here in the winter as we've just got a standard foot muff on it.

This buggy is amazingly light and easy to fold and put up again, ideal for car journeys, bus trips etc. with an active toddler. I can cope with the toddler and pram and shopping on my own stress free!

My favourite feature has to be the canopy / hood. It comes down far enough so you don't need an additional sun parasol and is also handy if you get caught in a bit of rain without the rain cover. Ooh and it has windows!

Has a nice large shopping basket and am extra pocket at the back.

Above all it is very comfy for my 18month old and he loves travelling in it and has no problems sleeping in it.
