Thule - Urban Glide 2

Got my Thule Urban Glide 2 (I live near a lot of gravel trails) for $125 including the car seat adapter! Like $800 new

We also went with Thule. Chemical free fabrics were high on our priority list so we knew we weren't going for an American brand. For infant car seat we went with the Chicco Cleartex as that saved money while still having safe fabrics We then upgraded to the Nuna Rava after a car accident, since we knew we'd be using that for longer. We went to Nordstrom and Pottery Barn and tested the Nuna strollers and Uppababy strollers we thought the build quality of them was poor honestly. I don't know if it was the floor models but they did not feel good at all (wobbly). Then we tested the Thule Urban Glide 2 at Rei and loved it. The feel was immediately sturdy. My husband was in love right away and once we decided to pair it with a smaller stroller (we did the baby zen yoyo2) it was a perfect match for our family and lifestyle. We live in the suburbs in an outdoorsy area. We often walk on trails. I tested other strollers at target momcozy, mockingbird,bravo, Evenflo we didn't like the quality but I will say when I'd ask parents on the street if they recommended their stroller they always always said yes and rarely ever remembered the name of the stroller....so it really isn't that serious. You'll probably like whatever you get. If you're on a budget go ahead and get the Mockingbird stroller.

I have the Thule urban glide and it’s great for snow. I got the car seat adaptor and used it with my kid since birth. They also now sell the basinet attachment in Canada in case you wanted that

I’m a big fan of our Thule UG2. We got it used from a family that had used it for like 3 yrs and we have used it as our primary stroller for the past 2 yrs and it’s still in really good shape. We got the car seat adaptor and used it from birth. Now you can also get the bassinet if you want to avoid using the car seat. It’s so easy to push around and maneuver and it does great in the snow. I also like how big the basket is. We just got a Thule chariot to be our main stroller, but I’m going to hold on the Urban Glide for a bit in case we need to bust it out for the winter.

Seconding the Thule Urban Glide. I have a v2 and it handles super well in the snow. You definitely need bike tires for dirt roads and snow

I knew we would want to do a lot with our kid and wasn’t sure if I should get one stroller to “do it all” or multiple with specific purposes in mind. We ended up getting two, one small super lightweight and one large jogging stroller and I’m so glad we did. The lightweight Nuna Trvl is perfect for the grocery store, coffee shop, mall etc and our jogger (Thule urban glide) is amazing for all our outdoor trips, walks in the park, etc. Instead of having one middle ground, I’m so glad we have two very different options that work for our specific wants. Also we got both on sale so it worked out. The urban glide 2 we got at an REI garage sale for only $280!

I’m really big on buying the stroller you need for your lifestyle. We ended up with a Trvl and I’m so glad we did. It has an extremely comfortable smooth ride but it’s crazy lightweight and maneuverable. We knew we would want to do a lot outdoors and got a Thule urban glide second hand. The Nuna is used so much for all our errands and the jogger is perfect for everything else. I’d ask yourself what are you wanting to do with baby and then go from there

2. We had a Thule Urban Glide 2 which we used for daily walks and excursions. We also had a Summer 3D lite (umbrella stroller) for travel (international).

I have the Thule Urban Glide 2 and love it, only problem is my 2-year-old hates going fast so it doesn’t get much use. If I could do it all over again I would have bought secondhand. 

Only infant bucket seats are compatible with strollers. They're all exclusively rear-facing.  I recommend the Clek Liing for the car seat. It's very highly safety rated and made in Canada. Their site has a list of compatible strollers. I went with the Thule Urban Glide 2; if I was doing it again I'd probably go with my first instinct, which was Uppababy Cruz. The Urban Glide is very smooth, but it's huge, which sucks for taking it anywhere. It also can't have the baby facing you unless you're using it with the car seat - the stroller seat is forward-facing.

I have the Urban Glide 2 and you're absolutely correct about it being unwieldy as hell. It's great locally but I managed to hurt myself multiple times trying to load it into the car and getting it into doors is a whole ordeal, even using the handicap buttons. Eventually I got fed up and bought a relatively inexpensive generic stroller frame that lives in the trunk of my car (brand is Babytrend). I have a Clek Liing, which I really like, but the strollers that are specifically compatible with it tend toward the pricey. 

I run 10-14 miles most days of the week and use the Thule urban glide. I bought an older model and then used my rei discount and got it at a really good price - still expensive but I use it every day in all weather and my little guy loves it! It’s easy to push and rolls very smoothly. I run road, rail to trail, rural gravel roads, and easy going double track trails. I adjust the tire pressure depending on what terrain, which admittedly can make it slower rolling, but makes it less bumpy for my child. Would recommend checking this out either used or on sale, or depending on your financial situation buy new.

I have 3 strollers. 2 kids (almost 5 and almost 3) we have an UB Vista (never used as a double, still have on hand for if I’m solo with my youngest. We have a Zoe double for travel/errands and a Thule Urban Glide 2 for long walks near home. I can’t get myself to get rid of any of them even though we hardly use them anymore lol

We found our Urban Glide 2 at a liquidation store on sale and got it for about $350 last year! (We also purchased it before having any sort of scan and I was irrationally worried we would have twins lol)
