Our Review of the Baby Jogger City Select stroller
Taking 2 years to engineer, and winning the Innovation Award at the 2009 ABC Kids Expo, the Baby Jogger City Select stands alone as the only single-to-double stroller with 16 different configurations to suit your family.
Mix and match seats, bassinets, and car seats to customize your stroller. The City Select starts as a single stroller and converts to a double stroller with Baby Jogger's patented second seat attachment method.
Standout Features:
- Add a second seat, bassinet, or car seat to make this Baby Jogger stroller a double
- Accepts two infant car seats
- One-step easy fold
- Adjustable handlebar
- Seriously roomy underseat basket
- Hand-operated parking brake
Benefits for You: Customize the Baby Jogger City Select any way you like. Start with one kid and grow to two by adding the second seat, a car seat, or a bassinet. You'll need to buy the Second Seat Kit separately to use the stroller as a double.
Keep a diaper bag in the seriously roomy underseat basket. Baby Jogger made sure to design the basket so that you have access to your gear from just about any direction.
Folding the City Select stroller takes just one step - flip up the side levers with both hands and fold. The stroller latches to stay folded. The folded dimensions, while not umbrella small, are pretty compact for a full-size stroller. Not to mention its unique ability to fold with an additional seat attached.
The telescoping adjustable handle makes pushing comfortable for caretakers of all sizes. The handbrake offers easy stopping and keeps your feet pedicure perfect.
12" rear and 8" light weight dual front quick-release wheels with front wheel suspension make pushing one or two kids pretty easy. The team took this stroller for a spin and found it easy to maneuver even with two seats attached. And if that hasn't convinced you: the tires never go flat.
Compatibility: With Baby Jogger's easy accessory system, you can attach a Car Seat Adapter, Child Tray or Belly Bar Console, each sold separately. The City Select Child Tray and Belly Bar Console are not currently available, but will be coming soon!
The City Select accepts the following infant car seats. You'll need to purchase the Second Seat Kit along with the Car Seat Adapter to add a second car seat to the stroller:
- Graco SnugRide
- Graco SnugRide 32
- Peg Perego Primo Viaggio SIP 30/30
- Chicco Key Fit
- Chicco Key Fit 30
- Maxi Cosi Mico
- Evenflo infant car seats
Benefits for Baby: With the Baby Jogger City Select stroller, baby sits wherever they like. Facing you, facing the world, up in a high position, or in a lower position.
When a new little brother or sister arrives, your big kid enjoys sitting in a full-sized seat while their sibling rides in a bassinet, second seat, or car seat. If you've been blessed with twins, the City Select keeps both kids happy with two full-sized seats (second seat sold separately), two car seats, or two bassinets.
The generous canopy keeps the sun out. And when your little one grows taller, the canopy adjusts up to create more headroom. The footrest adjusts to add support for little legs while he seat reclines for comfy naps (the second seat reclines, too).
Comparison: The phil&teds sport buggy has the option of adding on a sport double kit to transform the single sport into a double stroller. The sport has fewer seating options and does not sit two infants at the same time. The second seat on the sport is also smaller than the second seat on the City Select.
The sport buggy does come in at a slightly lower price point and features beefier pneumatic tires that handle rough terrain with ease.
If you like the look and features of the sport but want 4 wheels, check out the phil&teds hammerhead buggy.

Super sturdy, easy to maneuver (Bugaboo comparison)
The first thing I noticed as compared to our Bugaboo was the overall better quality. It was so super sturdy! I always felt the Bugaboo to be a tad wobbly and could tip over. This "tank" pushes as easy as a Bugaboo and manuevers just as well. The underneath basket is HUGE! Although I don't know how accessible it will be with 2 kids. The fold is a little clumsy as you don't need to remove the seats but it may be easier to remove them. It is heavier than the Bugaboo but definitely worth the extra weight! My 2yr old daughter is taller, 34 in. and she fits fine in the seat, especially helpful are the adjustable settings for the canopy, harness and foot rest. Oh, and she can wiggle right out of the Bugaboo harness but this one is much more "solid".
Amazing!!!
