Baby Jogger - City Mini GT2 Travel System

Best bang for your buck is [Baby Jogger City Mini GT2 with car seat.](https://www.target.com/p/baby-jogger-city-mini-gt2-travel-system-opulent-black/-/A-86993017) We used this until our kid was a little bit bigger and then moved onto the Babyzen Yoyo, but that was almost entirely because we live in Philadelphia and wanted the lowest footprint as possible for going into stores and getting on the bus. We still use the Baby Jogger if we are going somewhere “off road”. We used the Baby Jogger car seat until he grew out of it. No need to change that one until it wasn’t useful. Also, it was really really really nice to be able to move him from the car to the stroller without having to unbuckle him when he was an infant. Just pop the module out of the car seat and pop it onto the stroller adapter.

With a newborn, you’re going to need to spend the money and deal with the weight. We got the [Baby Jogger City Mini stroller and car seat set.](https://www.amazon.com/Baby-Jogger-City-Travel-System/dp/B07YCNSM4J/) It was super nice for the first year. Being able to go from car seat to stroller and back without having to unbuckle the kid was really nice. Our kid is nearing 2, and that’s still his car seat. When he could sit on his own, we changed the stroller to the [Babyzen Yoyo.](https://www.amazon.com/Babyzen-YOYO2-Stroller-Black-Canopy/dp/B0857159B3/) That’s the one that hits everything you listed. $450, super light, well built and sturdy, and it packs up so small that it fits in the overhead compartment of an airplane. Just got back from a trip with the kid and didn’t have to check the stroller. Just popped it overhead, and it’s the same stroller we use everyday on the streets of Philadelphia. The only downside is that it’s not appropriate for a newborn. They need to be able to sit up on their own before you can use the Babyzen Yoyo.

I bought this one. I love it and I can tell I’ll be able to use it for a few years. I know after that if needed, some insurance companies may provide one I’m assuming with a pediatrician referral. So far though my son is 3 going on 4 and this works great for us. I was nervous about the 3 wheels instead of 4 but it’s very sturdy and we’ve never had it tip. I’d look at the reviews and you can see quite tall and large kids fitting in the stroller.

I absolutely love the Bugaboo! I’ve had three separate families have it, two of which were I NYC, so TONS of walking ( roughly 50-80 miles a week with one family). I’ve used pretty much every model and loved them all. I prefer it over the uppababy by a long shot! And they can easily convert from a single to a double! Also a much cheaper stroller I also love is the city mini G2

Consider the longevity of the stroller. The Nuna and Uppa baby’s have small seats in comparison to other brands like Bob, Baby Jogger, Thule etc. I’m 5’7, husbands 6’7 handle height was the least of our issues. Our kid kept outgrowing the Nuna strollers we had the Mix and the Trvl (head hitting canopy, not having space on back rest). We went to a stroller warehouse auction and she didn’t fit in 90% of the luxury strollers they had (bugaboo donkey, uppa baby vista cruiser, cybex can’t remember the model). The baby jogger mini city G2 worked really well for us. It’s not expensive, the handle height is fine for tall parents but most importantly the seat will fit a tall baby/kid

My baby jogger City Mini G2 is definitely not the fanciest option but the but when fully loaded is at the $600+ mark. We’re still using it, toddler prefers it and we’ve used it from month 1. I’ve seen 4 year olds in it. Where we live has a mixture of sidewalk and very rocky type paths, our stroller can take it.

I have. At first I HATED the harness but I’ve gotten used to it. I got the GT2 at first and returned it because I was worried it would be too reclined. I think the GT3 sits up higher. So far so good just really annoying the extras you have to buy. I had to buy the belly band so it’s becoming a very expensive stroller. But I wanted a bigger wheel stroller that is compact and this was really the only option I saw that fit my needs. Also the GT3 they fixed the bar in the back by the basket. So it’s easier to put stuff in it. It’s been great for our horrible sidewalks and we just took it to a thinkery museum and it moves great.

I love my city mini gt2. Two kids and that thing is still trucking. Plus the shock absorber on that bad boy!

Does it attach to a City Mini GT2? Ours has been laying around for far too long. I’ll make you a deal on it.

Do you intend to actually jog with it outside of Disney or do you just prefer the style and ease of push of jogging strollers? 

Perfect. I already added my suggestion under the other comment but the Baby Jogger City Mini GT2 would be my top suggestion. It is quite a bit more expensive than the Jeep you were looking at but they are quite popular and usually fairly easy to find gently used locally for a good price. Definitely worth the upgrade over the Jeep. 

The Mountain Buggy Nano is a great travel stroller but not a great long-term option for a child who is already 4 unless they are very petite. Something easy to fold and reasonably compact but with a higher weight capacity and seat dimensions that will work for a bigger/older child will be beneficial in the long run since kids tend to need strollers MUCH longer at Disney than in regular life. Assuming they don’t actually intend to jog with it outside of Disney, I’d suggest the Baby Jogger City Mini GT2. It will fit a bigger child so much better. Shop around on Marketplace to find a good condition gently used one to save on the cost. 

We did Disney world in January and used the baby jogger city mini gt2 for my 5 year old
