Our Review of the Baby Jogger City Series Single stroller
*New for 2007: Baby Jogger has just added these great new features to all 2007 City Series Strollers:
- Fully adjustable "Floating" sun canopy; allows you yo adjust the canopy to any angle, providing shade no matter where you're headed or when
- Quick and easy one-handed recline adjustment
Bottom Line: If you?ve ever pushed a Baby Jogger, you already know their strollers are famously light, but strong as a rock. The City Single is no exception. Weighing in at only 21 lbs, it?s so easy to steer, plus it?s tested to carry up to 75 lbs. Like all Baby Jogger strollers, it?s backed by Baby Jogger?s lifetime frame warranty. A vented sun canopy, padded reclining seat, adjustable 5-point harness, plenty of storage, and of course that fantastic easy fold make the City Single one of the best high-end swivel wheel strollers yet.

Front Wheel Problem
Reviewer: Anonymous , Melbourne Australia
Date: June 12, 2008
We were extremely happy with our Baby Jogger until recently the front wheel started to stick when turning. The front plate seems to now be loose and there does not seem to have been any incident that caused this to happen. Now the pram is very frustrating to take shopping because turning is very difficult. We are going to have to claim warranty on the pram and hopefully the issue is corrected with the front wheel. Prior to this problem the pram was wonderful and the turning circle was fantastic. I often get stopped by people commenting on the bassinet. The hight of the bassinet is perfect for nappy changes on the run and our baby boy sleeps in there very comfortably.

We like this stroller!

We like our Baby Jogger City Series quite a bit. It's incredibly smooth over our bumpy neighborhood sidewalks and streets -- feels like you're pushing a feather. And the fold-up feature could not be more simple or easy. My two small complaints are: 1) The straps are a pain in the arse to adjust, and 2) our baby is still pretty small and it almost tips over if you're not careful.

Very pleased

I read alot of reviews of strollers before deciding on the City Stroller. I have been very pleased with it. I purchased the car seat adaptor since my daughter was just over three months old when it arrived. I needed to start training for a triathlon and couldn't wait the recommended six months. The adaptor is great - she's very secure and I can use the car seat's canopy to keep her out of the wind and sun. And I get to keep my eye on her since she faces me.
The stroller does veer a bit to the right and I haven't bothered to try to fix it yet because it hasn't been enough of a problem. I can push it with one hand while running and keep it straight.
The stroller I bought was on sale so I think it was an older model. It doesn't have a latch to keep it folded which is a bit of a pain since I have to mount it on hooks in our garage due to space limitations. We keep it folded with a couple of small bungee cords. I understand they have added this feature with the new model.
The small zipper compartment is hard to access while the seat is upright because the strap is in the way.
The stroller arrived very quickly and it is a smooth ride. I'm very pleased with my purchase.

Dog Walkers' Best Buggy
Reviewer: Anonymous , Ann Arbor, MI

We needed a stroller for uneven and snowy sidewalks that could keep pace with our energetic Siberian Husky -- we have been VERY pleased with Baby Jogger City Single. Smooth ride, highly maneuverable, not-too-big but can take on snow banks. We only wish for a cup holder (but that would mean giving up on great adjustable handle -- I am short, husband is tall). Easy to move one-handed, when we do need to hold coffee. Harness system is easy and comfortable for baby. We do not jog; we do not fold the stroller away frequently or pack it in car, so I cannot evaluate on those needs. We have been using the stroller for approx 4 weeks.

Pretty good, not perfect
Reviewer: Anonymous , Pleasanton, CA

First of all, I was very disappointed that it took over 2.5 weeeks to get my complete stroller. I received the stroller after 1 week but the front tire was missing from the box. Strange, I know. I would think that would be impossible if the manufacturer had some sort of quality control in place. Anyway, without question they sent me a new tire but it took over a week. All in all, I had to wait nearly 2.5 weeks after placing my order to finally use it!
The Pros:
Folds up very easily and nicely, although I think I would prefer if the fold mechanism actually clicked. It looks modern and nice. I've received several compliments on the color (artic blue) and the style. My little guy is very comfy in it. He has fallen asleep on almost every ride in it! The zipped pockets are quite handy. Overall, it's a pretty smooth ride for very light jogging. Also great at the mall or for walks.
The Cons: I have issues with the harness sometimes. The buckle has to be pushed at a specific angle and on each side which is slightly difficult for some reason. I always feel like I'm about to break a nail when I need to unbuckle it. For jogging, the front tire wobbles like mad on the swivel setting. A couple times while I was jogging it literally spun out. I was heading downhill and apparently too fast for the wheel to handle. I also noticed this happens a lot if I ever just pick up the pace a little bit during my jog, the wheel goes nuts and I feel like I am about to lose control.
Comments from The Staff:
I apologize for your shipping mishaps. If you have any further questions or concerns please contact us at 1-800-887-0218 or contact the manufacturer directly at 1-800-241-1848. In response to your wheel spinning out while jogging, that is a perfect example of why this stroller is not recommened for jogging. For fast pace jogging or running you may want to consider a fixed 16" wheel stroller.

Smooooth Ride

We love this stroller. We live in the city and walk on bumpy roads and sidewalks ... but it's still a smooth ride for the baby. I love everything about this stroller, and highly recommend it. The only down side: no bar for toys.

Great for walks in the park
Reviewer: Mommy of Ben , Pittsburgh, PA

My only regret is that we didn't buy this stroller earlier! Our son loves it -- he smiled the moment we put him in it. I think he finds the seat comfortable.
I take him for walks most days in the park. Over bumpy paths and strewn branches...he still sleeps like an angel.

Excellent Choice!
Reviewer: David K , Sacramento, CA.

I needed a stroller that was maneuverable and good for a 6'5" man and his 5'11" wife. This was it. The stroller pushes with one hand and can do a 360 turn in place. We just got back from Cabo and the wheels rolled over the broken sidewalks with ease. it is also able to go up and over curbs. The handlebar adjusts very easily so you can adjust it between people while you walk. the air filled tires roll over uneven rocks and the little guy was happy. It did get stuck at the airport Xray. the solution is to remove one side wheel and then it goes through without a problem. the wheels come off by pushing a button and the front can be removed with a "lever" lock. No tools and my wife said it was really easy. We got the travel bag which kept the stroller clean during the flight but it always reappeared in checked baggage and not at the airplane door. not a prob for us because he's 2 and it was worth it to have it clean upon arrival. Get the drink holder; the lack of a cup holder was a problem. The only real negative i can think of is that it doesn't recline all the way so he didn't really want to sleep in it. You can jog with it no problem the front wheel locks very easy. If you're going more than a few miles you can adjust the tracking on the front wheel and it straightened out great. More than a few miles I'd leave the boy with the wife. Also loved the back wheel break; We could do it in flip flops. Lots of vents and flaps and he had fun looking at us and playing peak a boo. the 5 point harness was very adjustable but it took a min. to figure out you have to push each side to release that sides buckle. The one pull fold was incredible. We were in and out of taxi's on our trip and the folding was so easy. it was also easy for me to "pop" it open with one hand while I held him in the other. my wife couldn't really do that. As soon as your child is out of the baby carrier you should get this and be done. it can be considered pricey but you get what you pay for and if your child uses it until s/he is able to walk all day without sitting it's comparatively cheaper than the three others we no longer use. Last reminder: get the cup holder.
