Baby Jogger - City Tour LUX

I have owned 7 strollers and one stroller wagon, but not all at the same time. My sweet spot for strollers with one kiddo was a farm stroller and a BabyJogger City Versa GT that I picked up on marketplace. My happy place for strollers with 2 under 2 was one all-terrain single-to-double stroller (Phil & Ted’s Sport) and a compact single seat stroller (BabyJogger City Tour Luxe). I added a side-by-side BabyJogger City Mini GT Double later. Now that I have 3 kids, I’ve sold most of my stroller collection in favour of a four-seater stroller wagon, but kept the City Tour Luxe. Fb marketplace is a huge enabler for my stroller problem lol I’ve only purchased two things brand new and everything else is bought and sold on marketplace.

My kids are 7 and 8 and we literally just got down to only a wagon last week. I had 2 single joggers (my sister took 1 a few years ago) and she didn’t want my double. So my husband finally sold the remaining single and the double on his day off last week.

I had 4 at one point (kids are 14 months apart), 2 single joggers (we were training for a 10k as a couple), a double and a wagon. My kids are 7 and 8 now and we just have the wagon that one side comes down and becomes a bench. Plus our dog is getting up there and so she walks a couple blocks and catches a ride now haha.

My son was born in January this year. I’m in southern Alberta, but our winters are also unpredictable. I honestly didn’t go outside a ton, for the following reasons • my winter coat didn’t fit properly still. I couldn’t zip it up, and I wasn’t about to buy a new one until I was more regulated pp, that way it would still be good for the future • it is pretty windy here if it’s warmer in the winter, and wind makes me miserable. • the days went by so fast, and I found that I rarely had the idea of going on a walk until it was close to evening That said, we did go out every now and then. I bought a secondhand city baby jogger (the brand is literally baby jogger lol) and I really enjoy how smooth it is to drive. It also has capabilities for double seating (if you are thinking of eventually having another). It was great through the snow and ice, and the seat can be turned into a bassinet, although I think you need a special frame that’s sold separately. Since ours was secondhand it came with that already. We didn’t use the bassinet too often though, and the only reason we used it at all is because I hadn’t ordered the adaptors for the car seat. Once I had those I literally just popped the car seat on every time. I don’t think you NEED a bassinet personally, but if you think you might use it, get a stroller that doesn’t need extra parts to convert. That’s my opinion.

Four… two doubles and two singles :) One stacked double for the car. A double jogger on the porch. A single jogger at my parents and a single travel stroller.

There are so many options, too many! If you know you’re going to travel by plane, perhaps go ahead and get a travel stroller that you can use with an infant car seat. You’ll discover your preferences and what you really need once baby is here. Highly recommend Uppababy Minu V3 and a compatible infant car seat. We bought our Uppababy Cruz V1 (including the bassinet) on FBMP for $200 in 2022 when I was pregnant with baby #1. I actually preferred baby wearing, so we really only used the stroller for those early doctor appointments and then later when he got too big to carry. I really love the Cruz, but definitely glad we got it second hand given that I mostly used the baby carrier. We did end up with a travel stroller from Baby Jogger that I got on deep discount during their Friends and Family sale (someone shared the code on Reddit). It was much better for flying and road trips than the Cruz, but you can definitely tell the difference in quality. Baby #2 is now 5 months old and we have the Uppababy Minu Duo stroller. I prefer a side by side double stroller. I still use the Cruz when I go out with just one kiddo, but that doesn’t happen very often.

100% yes. I bought my Uppababy Cruz V1 on Facebook marketplace for my first baby. It was made in 2018 and is in great shape after at least 3 babies. I purchased Minu Duo this year before having baby 2. They are both so much nicer, smoother, and better than my travel Babyjogger City Tour. Uppababy strollers are tanks and last. Check out used ones for sale near you.

I have a Keenz and we use it almost every day. We have a 2 and 4 year old who both enjoy it. I also have a single baby jogger stroller I use to run/walk. The Keenz is a nice luxury sport compromise. It has enough bells and whistles, plus sleek design, paired with actual shock absorption and is super user friendly. I already have a waitlist of people whiteout kids who want to buy it off of us when we’re done.

Hi. I’ve been working in this industry over 20 years and I have opinions lol. Joolz Aer. Bugaboo butterfly. Inglesina quid3. Baby Jogger City Tour. Joie nutmeg. Nuna TRVL LX. All of these are very solid options. If you go to my Instagram, I have a video on the quid that I put up yesterday and there was also a giveaway and a discount code. And full disclosure I do not make anything from that code if you use it it’s just to help people save some money. 🫡

I have three kids, and at one point we had 7 strollers/wagons if we count the umbrella strollers. They’ve all served different purposes at different stages. Single and double umbrella strollers for traveling, single and double Baby Jogger strollers for neighborhood walks, click-in stroller shell for the infant car seat when they were too little to sit up yet, wagon, and briefly a sit/stand stroller from Buy Nothing that I didn’t love and passed on quickly.

That's impressive. I think we had 6 in total. My favourites were the BabyJogger Citi with the one-hand fold and the Mountain Buggy one that can fit in an aeroplane overhead locker. Folding those in front of other parents was a major flex. But commuting with an infant and toddler it was essential. They put in a high shelf in the crèche's stroller store for our MB. Some mornings I'd walk in with it slung over my shoulder with the strap.
