Baby Jogger City Mini or Micro for 2 year old?

[schmoz]

My 4 year old Maclaren Quest is giving up the ghost and I assumed I'd replace it with another umbrella type but the reviews led me to BJCM and I think I'm sold. I was only planning to spend about £100 which would get me the Micro, but lots of people seem to think the Mini is much better. Is it really worth another £100? DS is nearly two (and definitely the last!) and I use public transport and walk a lot.

Having been the owner of the micro i would def go for the the mini, the mini is just so much nicer it reclines and has the big hood, although my dd slept fine in it i did regret not just buying the mini.
They do sem to have a good resale value for when uve done

Hmmm...I was worried someone would say that. Guess I'll have to work on the 'resale value' pitch to DH

Mini much better plus resale value better.

However think micro often cones with a raincover although I have never actually needed a raincover with mini as hood so big.

My micro didn't come with a raincover and I found my 2.5yr old incredibly heavy to push in it, I actually thought it was faulty but it's just the much smaller wheel at the front. I loved the size of it and the fold and the colours are nicer too but I would go for the mini too

I have had the micro for a few weeks now and I love it :) apart from the bigger hood and more of a recline there isn't that much of a difference for an extra 100 pound.

How old is your child mummytasha? DS is almost two and I'm worried he might outgrow it. Truth is I don't think I can find the extra 100, even though I'd prefer the mini.

i think i read the seat is taller on the micro, they are on ebay for £99 new with free postage

My ds is 8 months so hoping it will last him a while I saw an older child in one when o bought it and made me decide to buy it as he looked comfy and supported.

my ds2 will be 4 next month and fits in my city mini easily and comfortably. it's a bugger to push with his weight in though! i much prefer pushing ds3, who's 4 months!
