Urban Glide 3 (Single)

I live in Whitehorse. We used the same Thule Urban Glide for multiple children. Spring, summer, fall, and even winter if sidewalks/roads were cleared enough. We go off road (wider trails) to dog walk, and have travelled internationally with it, gate checking every time. It could still be used for other children. We also got it used, so who knows how many people had it first! It was worth every penny, and I’d recommend it to anyone.

We wanted the features that tend to be exclusive to high end strollers, but didn’t want to pay for the high end seats that are compatible with them. We ended up getting a Graco GoMax system (baseless infant seat and stroller frame - no toddler seat) for less than the price of a high end car seat and planned to get a Joolz Hub. However, I scored a Babyzen Yoyo+ and Thule Urban Glide 1 for $20 apiece on Facebook marketplace instead. So instead of a car seat on wheels plus a high end hybrid stroller, we have a car seat on wheels and 2 used high end strollers on opposite ends of the spectrum lol. I think it will work well for us!

What are YOU looking for in a stroller? We went with Thule Urban glide 3 + bassinet because we liked the quality and the no nonsense minimal look. I think it's a very elegant stroller. We're both tall and the baby is long so we need the size for longevity and the wheel size and suspension for our rural setting. It also goes well with our accidental all-swedish gear theme we unwittingly started and we keep adding to it without meaning to 😅

FTM. Thule urban glide 3. Bought new. I'd definitely recommend it to a friend. There's nothing I don't like about it. I live in the countryside and move across a lot of terrain.

I have the Thule Urban glide 3 with the bassinet. I don't think it fits your criteria but it is so splendid! Easy to maneuver, has a hand brake, giant wheels that come off very easil and it's super smooth and sleek. Definitely aptly named 😁

For walks you use a bassinet at least until baby is able to sit up in a 3 point position. The car seat isn't suitable for walks because the baby's position can cause oxygen desaturation. Same reason for making frequent stops when driving for longer stretches. I didn't get the car seat attachments. We transfer baby in a flat bottomed sleep carrier and use the bassinet for any stroller use. The stroller is Thule Urban glide 3.

We got the Thule Urban glide 3. It's a sleek handsome beast of a stroller that can do any kind of strollable terrain. The bassinet is really nice and it folds flat. You don't have to get a car seat with the stroller. Most strollers have adapters if that's important but baby shouldn't sleep in it outside of the car anyway.

Thule Urban glide 3. Velika napihljiva in odstranljiva kolesa, lahko vodljiv, eleganten, ročna bremza, košara primerna za dolgega dojenčka in športni del za še nekaj let po tem.

We’re getting the Thule UG3 with bassinet for walks/easy urban hikes/runs (my spouse does a lot of neighborhood jogging and is excited to get on that—though obvi one can’t run with a baby until they have head control!)… as well as an ultralight/compact travel stroller (Uppababy Minu v3) which can have a carseat adapted/clipped in (Uppababy Aria v2 or possibly Mesa, that’s tbd since some people seem to report the Aria being difficult to use). I have heard that the Minu is particularly beloved among travel strollers bc Uppababy has a great repair or replacement policy should your stroller get damaged in travel (providing your follow their specific instructions to store it etc). We live near a semi-urban environment with a lot of tiny shops etc, and the idea of navigating a Thule through there is alarming. Plus we wanted something that would be easy for me to handle one-handed as needed (I’m pretty strong relative to normal ppl lol, but relative to this sub—I don’t lift, and we know the post-partum period may come with a lot of potential restrictions/limitations.) Initially I thought this was overkill (and it still might be), but we got very lucky and are having the systems gifted to us. If you have the room (and room in budget), I think the combo of light travel stroller + big beefy stroller that can take on all terrains is a really powerful one. I do highly recommend going in person to try out a bunch of different strollers, including the specific ones you’re looking to get! I was initially against the multi stroller concept and just wanted one all-purpose midsize stroller like a sane normal person lol, but after trying out the push and especially the one-touch fold mechanisms on the incredibly tiny/light/foldable Minu in store, as well as the burly UG3, I too fell in love with my spouse’s crazy vision :))

That’s awesome! So glad to hear you love yours. The light weight is what we loved about it in the store try-out too. And I know it’s really well reviewed on Wirecutter iirc. I heard that some folks had difficulty getting a good install into their cars (because of angled back seats maybe?) without a rolled towel underneath the whole car seat mount, though, which is what worried me. I think there was a post about it on r/BabyBumps yesterday or something that really shook us 😅😭

Honestly, I’m not sure…pretty new to the car seat thing (spouse has been running point there), but I’ll go back and look at the screed and see if I can figure it out! 😅 We would def be using it with the base, so I’m really glad to hear you haven’t had any issues with that!!

I mean, I have folded our urban glide 3 with one hand and loaded it into the trunk, but not something I'd do often as a small 5'3 human. Also does take 2 hands to open mostly. But it's awesome in snow/rural roads/rugged, and we love it 😂

We live in rural mb on very rough gravel, we went with thule urban glide 3 and are really happy with it after a year. We did purchase the bassinet which was great for winter and as a travel bassinet. Thr only downside for us is how large it is as I have a small car, but it does fit fine. I just can't take it to do a large grocery shop. But baby wearing came in very handy until she was able to sit in a cart.
