Baby Jogger City Select 2 Single-to-Double Modular Travel System in Radiant Slate

Bought this stroller expecting great things and have been pretty disappointed. First off it does but fold up easy and gets “stuck” a lot when trying to fold. Second the seat also gets “stuck” and jams when trying to adjust the position. The cup holders get in the way when trying to adjust the seat and have also fallen off a couple times. I also think the 5 point harness is hard to get a squirming kid in and out of.

As a mindful consumer, given the price point of these, I am disappointed that baby jogger changed up the models and attachments and not longer carrying City Select seats.

We've been using this stroller for almost 8 months and really like it overall. It's smooth and comfortable for us to push, has a great sized storage compartment underneath, and the quality of the materials feels really nice. I really like the shade with the little flap so you can peek in at your babe and it provides more circulation. I also love the parent storage compartment and drink holder. However, the main issue we have is around closing/folding the stroller. Firstly the side levers that you need to pull up to close it are extremely difficult to pull on. They are always stuck or stiff and I have to use both hands to do each side. The stroller doesn't fold up super compact which is ok, it's small enough for the car and we knew this before purchasing. The other main issue with folding is the unfolding. There isn't really an easy way to do it- it's clunky and difficult to do. We often lay it on the ground then open it which is not ideal in public. But once it's open I love it!

This is my third BABY JOGGER STROLLER. FORST PURCHASED IN 2010, so I am a loyal Baby Jogger Customer. I have the original city select, but CANNOT PURCHASE THE SECOND SEAT ANYWHERE!!! Not only that, but my basket underneath has come undone, where the stroller frame connects to the basket. Somehow the plastic piece, which seems to be very flimsy, broken in half off the basket. It’s very upsetting because I can’t even get a “replacement part” when I search my model on this here website.

I would be very hesitant to purchase this stroller if you have hopes of expanding it with the 2nd seat in coming years. I invested in the original city select less than 2 years ago for my first baby, and now am expecting my second. However, I unfortunately just learned that they no longer make a 2nd seat for the city select and the 2nd seat for the city select 2 is not compatible. It appears that MANY people were left in this same situation. So I would not trust baby jogger, as they could easily update their design again at any time and leave you stuck with a very expensive single stroller with no options to expand.

I have had this stroller less than a year and a half and I have already need to replace the brake system and the wheels. I didn’t expect to pay this much for a double stroller to have it keep breaking. Very disappointing.

Ok….. so this stroller was such a pain for us. It never worked properly. The adapters are so stiff and it’s awful to try to get the car seat in and out of the stroller. And it folds so thin but it is a STRUGGLE and full fight with 2 hands to do so, ya know cuz you definitely have 2 free hands when you’re standing outside of a car in the street with a small children in the heat. And no one could close it. Not my husband or in laws or strangers. It was so stressful and just not worth it for the price. Esp coming from a peg perego with our first which was SO SEAMLESS and a one hand close. I got so many compliments on that stroller. But we had another baby and needed and wanted a double stroller that offered a travel system. So besides those issues you would have if you used it for a single. The double feature…. HORRIBLE. The car seat was at the top and the companion seat for our older child was at the bottom. But they didn’t fit…. Literally. It’s like it was missing a whole 2 inches to the stroller structure to actually fit 2 seats. We had to put the bottom seat first and then force the baby seat on top and it wouldn’t recline any longer because it was squished underneath the car seat. It also was hurting my toddlers head because it was squished SO BADLY on it. This also renders the basket entirely useless and you can’t get anything in or out of it and then have to wrangle to get the car seat off just to get your purse out of it. And then force it back on with the crap attachments. Horrible. Abs awful. BUT thankfully buy buy baby is amazing and they returned it no problem and helped us to buy another peg perego that we wanted instead. Freaking hate this stroller have nothing nice to say. Save yourself!!!!!

I wish I would have purchased this stroller from the get go. It’s AMAZING!! I will never need another stroller!
