Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

There are currently two listings for the 2016 City Mini GT Travel System on Amazon. Get the other one, if you're after black! We ordered from this option, in Black, and received it in Grey, and Amazon wouldn't do anything to correct the issue (it had to do with black not being in stock at the exact time we asked for it, but could have been easily remedied). Order from the other option, and you won't have to worry about getting it in a different color by accident! Good luck! Here's the link: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01N8YLNIZ/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o07_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 With that out of the way, we really like the City Mini GT. We were stuck between the City Mini, City Mini GT, and City Select Lux (one of our car trunks is too small for the regular City Select, so we had to skip that one). We ultimately decided on this one for our first, because we live in a walk-up, and the extra weight from the Lux didn't seem worth it for the two or so years that we plan on having just one child. There is a 9-lb difference between the GT and the City Select Lux, which means a lot when you're carrying a diaper bag, infant carrier WITH child, and stroller, up two or three flights of stairs. The Lux also folds bulkier, and our stairways are really narrow. The three-wheel turning radius on this is a dream compared to the City Select (Lux or regular), and it pushes really easily. Also, Baby Joggers hold their resale value extremely well, so we're planning on selling this one used, once the time comes, and purchasing a convertible for our future kids to share. With that said, I LOVED the Lux, and am still getting over the fact that we didn't end up going with that one (: If you plan on having more kids pretty quickly, I would recommend the City Select or City Select Lux over this one IF you live in a house with a garage, or on the first floor of an apartment building (or in an apartment building with an elevator!). Make sure you measure your car trunk, if applicable, to make sure that the larger stroller will fit. We chose the City Mini GT over the regular City Mini because I'm a pretty avid power walker (such a mom thing to say), and this is the only non-jogging stroller from Baby Jogger that is officially approved for power walking. The City Mini is not approved for anything but regular mall and sidewalk use, so I didn't want to find myself out of warranty if I damaged the regular City Mini from everyday activities. I feel like it's pretty obvious, but I see people saying that you can use all Baby Joggers to jog all the time, so just so everyone knows, the Summit is the ONLY stroller from Baby Jogger that is actually approved for jogging. You will definitely ruin your wheels and suspension if you try to jog with any of the others (I've seen it! Not pretty.). If you're someone who just wants the stroller for walking around your neighborhood and in the supermarket, and you don't care about the slightly better "ride" of the GT, the City Mini will definitely save you some money. In summary, pros and cons of the GT vs. City Select Lux vs. City Mini.... City Mini GT: - Rides the best of the three, like a dream - Great turning, like the City Mini - Slightly larger fold than the City Mini - All-terrain tires (not true of the other two) - Best durability of the three (Lux second seat looked like it was going to get damaged when you left it on and folded) - Suitable for power walking, uneven terrain (cobblestones, historic roads), etc. - Holds up to 65 lbs. City Select Lux - Nicest seat fabrics - Convertible - can seat one or two children, and is compatible with the seat board (only compatible with the Lux) and the ride-along board (also compatible with other Baby Jogger strollers) - Both seats fold up, and the whole stroller can fold with seats attached (not true of the regular City Select) - 30% smaller fold than the regular City Select, making folded size more comparable (it's still bigger) to the City Mini or GT - Holds up to 45 lbs. per seat City Mini: - Cheapest, most budget-friendly - Lightest (if you live on, say, a four-floor walk-up, this would be the one). About 3 lbs. lighter than the GT, and 12 lbs. lighter than the Lux. - Smallest fold, by a bit - Not the most durable wheels - Holds up to 50 lbs. - Tight turning (in a good way!) Hope this helps someone! We did a ton of research and it was exhausting, so I wanted to give other people like us a run down!
