Coming soon
I picked up a BabyJogger City Tour Lux on fb marketplace that I absolutely love. Lay-flat reversible seat, huge canopy, big basket.
r/BabyBumpsCanada • Best travel stroller [ab] ->Oh man, I remember the stroller decision all too well. My advice, narrow down to the few you’d like the most and then buy used. Don’t waste your money buying new. You have more time than you need to set up Facebook marketplace alerts and wait for a good deal to come up. You’ll want to buy the car seat new, but you can get adapters to match to a different brand if needed. Also, spending less money takes the pressure off buying a stroller you’ll use forever, and (if you have the space) allows you to buy different strollers for different purposes. At first we bought a Maxi Cosi stroller/car seat package (new but deep discount), but the stroller kind of sucked. So we kept the car seat and sold the basically new stroller and found a good deal on a second (or third?) hand UppaBaby, which we liked because it had a really nice bassinet attachment. Bassinet was great for the first few months, but ultimately the stroller was bulkier than we wanted. When our daughter was able to sit up on her own, we switched to a much more compact Baby Jogger (not to be confused with a jogging stroller) that became our “travel stroller” (bought new in box but for a steep discount on Facebook Marketplace). Shortly after we lucked into a very worn looking but super sturdy Bob Jogging stroller as a hand-me-down from a friend. Our daughter is almost 3 and we still have these two to this day and have been using them over 2 years. The Bob sits in our garage and we take it on walks around the neighborhood. The Baby Jogger stays in our car, and we use that when we drive somewhere or travel out of town. We live in a pretty walkable area so we actually use the Bob more often, but the Baby Jogger is surprisingly durable and has taken a lot of abuse, getting a lot of get checks and a lot miles walking around various cities we’ve travelled to.
r/daddit • Wife is 15 weeks - went down a stroller rabbit hole… ->Hell no to the Graco. Did it with my first and hated it (live in Mtl so used it daily) Tried a few others. My recommendations are Baby Jogger CT Mini or... Uppababy. Yes Uppababy is expensive but you can resell it. I recently bought the Ridge stroller on sale for maybe $500 approx. Then bought everything else (car seat + adjusters/adapters, bassinet, bassinet stand, ganoosh, rain cover etc) from a Mom in a local parenting FB Group and paid half the cost (in good condition too). Even now those second hand items are still in good condition and could probably be resold again. A Mom friend bought Uppababy used from FB Marketplace, everything for about $700. Used it for 4 years straight (daily) and now passing it onto her friend. Uppababy seems to have a long shelf life!
r/BabyBumpsCanada • Overwhelmed - Stroller Recommendation [ON] ->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.
r/daddit • My wife has a crazy addiction to buying strollers. So we’ve tried em all. ->We’ve got the baby jogger city tour (not sure if it’s 2) that we took on an interstate plane trip. Took it on as carry on with no issues. It’s now our car pram- takes up hardly any space, easy to put up/down and able to lay almost completely flat so good for naps. Only downside is the small basket underneath. Great pram with no issues so far
r/BabyBumpsandBeyondAu • Joolz Aer+ or Baby Jogger City Tour 2? (Or something else?) ->Baby jogger city tour lays completely flat and fits the requirements for carry on or Qantas. We have flown with it before and use it as our car pram because it’s so compact. Only downside is the basket underneath is small, but if you have a back pack it’s not a problem
r/BabyBumpsandBeyondAu • Lie flat travel pram on Qantas ->I was given a used Baby Jogger City Tour and it's really great; It totally saved us on a trip to visit family 5 hours away, and was easy to pack because of the size. This one is in the travel stroller category (folds like a suitcase size, versus an umbrella stroller with 2 handles that folds long and narrow). I'm really happy with it, and I'm happy to have it over the classic umbrella stroller.
r/NewParents • Best durable umbrella stroller good for travel ->We brought the baby jogger city tour on 2 cruises when my son was around that age! Worked well
r/Buyingforbaby • Travel Stroller for 18 Month Old ->I just got back from a trip with my 5-month old. Our direct flight was 16 hours. I made sure I packed light for my carry-on because my baby is on the heavier side and I’m a petite person. Stroller recommendation: Baby Jogger City Tour. Fits in the overhead bin and about 14lbs. I gate checked the stroller. If you are formula feeding, I suggest using this storage bag for the powder as it saves so much space in your handcarry/ personal bag unlike the stackable plastic container. https://preview.redd.it/wtff591fad9f1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0d76f438c0924932995c91ee302adecc7323ad5a
r/BabyBumpsCanada • Travel stroller recommendations [BC] ->May or may not be helpful but we have opted for the Baby Jogger City Tour for our trip next month but our LO will be closer to 8 months then. The regular seat lays near flat but they also do a bassinet attachment for smaller bubs. We have friends who bought the Skip2 (we looked at it too as we have a Redsbaby for our regular pram but couldn't justify the price) and took it to NZ and had zero issues through the airports/planes. I think your regular cabin crew / gate crew aren't going to be too pressed about a pram as long as you have a carry bag for it so it can be easily stowed. Most if not all travel prams are slightly outside the dimensions for carry on with most airlines but if it's under the 7kg weight limit you should be fine. ETA: it can be worth looking at Marketplace for a tidy 2nd hand one before opting for brand new. That's what we did and you'd never know it's been used before!
r/BabyBumpsandBeyondAu • Lie flat travel pram on Qantas ->The Baby Jogger city tour is great, it’s a tri-fold stroller and fits in overhead storage on the plane.
r/Preschoolers • Stroller advice for 4 year old ->Check with your airline as most won’t allow you to gate check a wagon — they allow strollers only. Additionally, depending on where you travel, a wagon may be very inconvenient. We lived in France for a couple years and never saw a wagon for kids as they are very impractical for the narrow sidewalks, narrow doorways, can’t fit on a lift, etc. I’d consider a small double stroller or a small single stroller with a ride on board for the older child. Bring a baby carrier so you can baby wear and the older child can sit in the stroller. I like the baby jogger city tour as it’s a trip-fold stroller that you can bring onboard planes and it fits in overhead bins.
r/Preschoolers • Best stroller/wagon for travel ->We just came back from overseas (London and France) and had the Baby Jogger City Tour. Easy to fold. Light and can come onboard too. Benefits are it lies basically flat, and my 2yo had many on-the-go naps while we were out.
r/BabyBumpsandBeyondAu • Best travel pram (for overseas) ->I love our Vista V2 which I've had since 2022. We're having another baby soon but not sure if we'll bother getting it set up as a double as my older one is pretty happy to walk. We might Just opt for a skateboard or seat attachment. I don't find the pram itself too heavy but I usually disassemble it before lifting into the car. I would say that if you do use public transport regularly or for travel you would probably want to pick up a travel pram too. We use the baby jogger City tour for that. The baby jogger isn't a bad little pram (very happy with it for occasional use) but it doesn't hold a candle to the Vista
r/BabyBumpsandBeyondAu • Prams - did you regret getting a larger, heavy pram for your first baby? ->The absolutely perfect baby gear for all scenarios does not exist. I would advise looking on Facebook marketplace to find items secondhand if you want to purchase multiple strollers. You don’t need to get everything before the baby comes. Most strollers (especially jogging strollers) cannot be used until baby is 3-6 months old. You may want to use the Doona at first while you figure out what is important to you. Your baby will likely outgrow the infant car seat by age one. So you can use the Doina for travel during this short-lived time. You will then travel with a convertible car seat which does not click into any stroller. I recommend taking a look at the Uppababy Minu V3. It has a bassinet mode built in and can have a car seat click in (only certain models). It also folds up small enough to go in the airplane overhead compartment. We got a used Uppababy Cruz V1 on FBMP. I used it a lot in the early baby days with the car seat. I had the bassinet, but ended up babywearing most often. I especially preferred babywearing when we went to events and other crowded spaces. So much easier than making our way with a stroller. I started using the stroller more in the toddler days as my son has global delays and was a late walker. I got a Baby Jogger City Tour during Black Friday sale to use as our travel stroller. Neither stroller is perfect, but both have been great to have for different reasons and uses. I just gave birth to our daughter and got the Uppababy Minu Duo stroller so I can take both kiddos out and about.
r/BabyBumps • Am I being naive in wanting an absolute UNICORN of a stroller? Or do I just need to accept that I actually need three strollers? ->we took a baby jogger city tour to Europe and it worked fine on uneven streets and collapsed super small/lightweight and could be stowed as a carry on for flights.
r/Mommit • Should we bring our main stroller to Italy? ->Baby Jogger City Tour! I got mine for $50 on Facebook marketplace. Had to buy the bumper bar separately though
r/Buyingforbaby • Travel Stroller - Analysis Paralysis ->We got car seat adapters so we can attach our cyber car seat to our one-hand-fold baby jogger stroller. We decided on this over the doona as: - I heard babies grow out of the doona quickly. This way we can swap the car seat if that happens. - I heard that the doona was very heavy. This way we only have the car seat to carry. - you don’t need to detach a chair from the stroller in order to attach the car seat, so you only need to carry one item if wheeling it anywhere (this is specifically why we got a baby jogger) From an engineering perspective the doona does look super cool, but it seemed a high price for something that may only be used for a short time and will be hard to sell/buy second hand (as a car seat).
r/beyondthebump • What do y’all think about the doona? ->
