City Select LUX Double

We have one stroller, the City Select Luxe, its convenient enough to fold up into the back of our car and take it anywhere but durable enough for trail walks. I wouldnt say its lightweight but its a good happy middle ground for those of us who dont want 2 strollers. Also conveniently can be converted into a 2 seater if you end up having a 2nd kid.

Depending on your lifestyle you can absolutely get by with just one, or even none. I do not have that kind of lifestyle😂. I had two for my first, a standard Graco stroller and an umbrella stroller. I would have been fine with just one, but the umbrella stroller was $5 and pink, turns out it's one of my favorite strollers still(Maclaren Volo). I have *so many* strollers now. I live in a crazy city, have two small kids, and one of them has Down Syndrome and is a runner, so strollers get used a lot in our daily lives. I actually have even more than 'my' strollers, because I pick up strollers people have thrown out and fix them up to donate(fix them up is a generous description, almost all they ever need is a wash). Also my husband's truck doesn't fit in our garage, so we have a lot of space for it all. I'm just going to list the ones we actually use.. A double and a single Bob, the single is from '09 and about to go, and we won't be replacing it. My husband runs with them, I use them for anything seriously off-road(stroller friendly hikes, farms, etc) City Select Lux double for my everyday stroller. It lives in my van and is an absolute workhorse. The Maclaren from my first, and a newer, nicer Maclaren. I wish they still made strollers because the newer one is so handy for travel, it's light, but super sturdy and the basket holds a lot. Also it's a single but it has a 75# limit, so on a recent trip we had both kids sitting in it when we needed. GB pockit for small places, like Drs offices or small shops. 2 City Minis for when we're going somewhere as a family but will be splitting up, like a mall. Honestly we could do without these two and just use the ones above, but one's my husband's favorite color and one's my favorite color, so they stay and get used a lot😂.

I currently have 3 but I’m supposed to be getting rid of one. Graco umbrella which we keep in my husbands car as either of our kids can use it. City select lux with bench seat which I keep in my car because it’s easier when I go out by myself with both kids. And then there’s the city select double that’s left open in the garage where I set the baby down daily. I’ll get rid of it eventually lol

I love the sit and stand option for my 5 year old. I got a city select lux with the bench seat off marketplace. Zoo, festivals, long walks, etc, she has a place to take a break if needed

I have a compact stroller(graco breaze) and city select lux which I can use single or double(bench seat for my oldest) and 2 wagons. The compact one stays in my car and is used the most for day to day like school drop off/pick ups and running into a store/mall

I feel like the baby jogger stroller doesn’t get enough recognition. We have the older version of the city select lux

[a double](https://foolsterroir.wordpress.com/2022/04/01/two-prams-later/) feels a lot safer and heavier though, and i ended up using the extra space for storage.

That’s how it is in my area. I’ve lucked out only once so far. A mom was moving and sold me a skip hop activity center, baby jogger city select lux with second seat, tote full of sensory toys, and some clothes for $50. Surprisingly all of it was very well taken care of. But I know I’ll never find a deal like that again. I also plan to pass on a lot of my stuff to others who need them when I’m done.

We did the baby jogger city select lux during the infant car seat stage. Moved to the baby jogger city mini GT double about the time they got too heavy to lug around. Now we have ditched the city select lux for good; and added a veer wagon (that seats four) because we have four kids and sometimes the older two want to hitch a ride. We still use the city mini GT double a ton, but the twins are only 18 months old.
