I have the Baby Jogger City Select with Second Seat and I love it. No stroller is perfect, but of the doubles I've had (Maclaren Twin Tecno, Maclaren Triumph and Bob Duallie), this is my go-to everyday stroller because it is the narrowest, goes anywhere and folds compactly. If I had to do it over, this probably would have been my only stroller - I just wish I had known about it before buying the others!All these strollers can be used with my 8-month old twins and with my 41" preschooler, but the City Select is the most useful one.PROS:* The City Select has been named Baby Gizmo's 2010 Top Tandem Stroller.* Goes anywhere - the reason I got it. I found out the hard way that side-by-sides do not fit between parked cars - the City Select does, with room to spare. This is the most important consideration when you're out and about with twins, so that you're not forced to leave one child alone in front of or behind your car while putting the other one in their car seat. The narrow width of the City Select has also been a huge advantage at doctor's offices, restaurants and stores that have narrower aisles.* Can be used from birth up. You can configure the City Select with optional Baby Jogger Car Seat Adaptor City Select, Single for one or two babies (three types sold, some car seats fit better than others) or with one or two seats (place the heaviest child in the top position); it can have stadium seating facing forward (with a huge storage basket), or you can put both seats facing you so they can recline fully @ 180 degrees (better for babies, looks like bunk beds).* The three-part canopies are excellent and provide far more shade than most Maclaren strollers. A zip-in mesh backing can be zipped in front for additional sun shade when the sun is low (though the instructions don't say this). A clear peek-a-boo window with built-in mesh for shade on top has a flap with quiet magnetic close.* Total weight load recommended for this stroller is 45 lbs per seat (combined passenger and baggage weight), so calculate 90 lbs total max allowance with two seats. Max allowance for the basket is 15 lbs and for each seat pocket, 2 lbs. My 14 m babies are 22 & 21 lbs, the diaper bag is 8 lbs = 51 lbs. Still way under the limit.* Optional carrycots are sold separately.* The wheels work on many surfaces. I've been able to use the City Select on narrow paths, dirt, snow and grass. The City Selects pushes very easily on smooth surfaces, even with my 32 lb son. In comparison, the Bob Revolution Duallie is superior off-road and feels lighter to push, but is way too long to use indoors in smaller spaces. The Techno Twin and Triumph handle very well on smooth surfaces but are impossible to use in snow.* Very compact fold. The City Select takes up half the trunk of my minivan, standing up, with all three rows up. If I need more space in back, I simply stash the stroller & seats in the second row of the minivan. In comparison, the Bob Duallie takes up 3/4 of the cargo area in the minivan. The Maclaren Techno takes up the whole width of cargo area, lying flat - it's too tall to place upright without it hitting the heads of people in the third row.* Huge storage basket - with the seats facing forward, the City Select has an enormous basket. I've been able to finally go grocery shopping with the twins and fit a fair amount of groceries underneath. When the seats are rear facing, storage is more limited but still usable. Zippers on all corners allow you to expand it and put in large items from the front, back or sides.* The hand break is very easy to use and with the rubber wheels in back, provides a sure grip.* The handle extends from 39" to 42" for taller parents. A Munchkin Stroller Hook, Colors May Vary can be placed on the handle to hold bags up to 8 lbs.* I'm able to fit two 7 lb bouncy seats BABYBJÖRN BabySitter Balance, Brown/Beige or two 7 lb KidCo GoPod Portable Activity Seat - Pistachio in the storage basket - the diaper bag hanging down from the Munchkin stroller hook keeps them secure. No other double I have can do this - great for playgroups or when I need to take the babies out of the stroller for any reason and am alone.* Many accessories - you can get many different ones but I found that stroller accessories from other manufacturers also work, at a fraction of the price.* JJ Cole Urban Toddler Bundle Me - Stealth fit these seats perfectly and can be used Spring & Fall - go with the toddler size which you'll use longer. LL Bean winter buntings work great in frigid winter weather. Fully reclined, the seats work like carrycots - my babies sleep very comfortably in them.* Baby Jogger is coming out with a ride-on board for a third child in March 2010 but, if needed, the seats are wide enough (12 inches) and the canopy high enough for my 41" oldest child. Both the canopies and the seats can be extended for older kids.* The "Baby Jogger City Select Second Seat Attachment Brackets" are sold separately if needed on mystrollers dot com. You do not have to buy the whole second seat.* As a sidenote, my husband did not think I needed this stroller and was quite mad when I got it. But yesterday, we did a two-cart BJs' run (4 boxes diapers, wipes, formula, groceries etc) and had ZERO room left in the back or anywhere else of the minivan, apparently. No problem - the two seats folded flat and went in the front passanger seat well. Wheels and second seat adaptors come off easily - those were tucked underneath the seats; the frame folded flat (26" x 21" x 9") and was tucked behind the second row. My hubby was stunned. All was forgiven.CONS:* The City Select can be hard to get up and down curbs - if you're pushing it forward; but if you pull it backwards up or down a curb, it's no harder that any other stroller (actually a bit easier because of the larger wheels in back). I've even brought it up and down stairs (empty of course).* The rain cover is not included. You can buy other brands that work though. For example, the universal Jeep rain shield fits each seat well or you can get a sngle cover for less from Sashas Kiddies Model BJCS Baby Jogger City Select Series Single Double Strollers Rain Cover (for use as a double).* This stroller is full-sized and not a good pick for public transportation unless there is handicapped access. I've yet to find a double I can carry down stairs with a baby though.* It takes about a minute to fold and put away, as you have to take each seat off. But after last night's BJs run, who cares!As a side note, the 2010 model costs less than the 2011 model, which has been slightly redesigned with a firmer back and a deeper seat.

After reading and watching countless stroller reviews, we settled on the Baby Jogger City Select (BJCS). We have 2 boys, 4 months apart, so we needed essentially a stroller for twins. For comparison's sake, we've been using a 7 year old Bugaboo Frog and a Graco snap n go. Of the strollers we considered, only the UppaBaby and the Britax B-Ready were available in town to test. The Phil & Ted's explorer and BJCS were unavailable even though we live in PDX and you would think this city is big enough. We settled right off the bat on an in-line tandem. Side by sides are just too obnoxious. If you're on the road in a quiet neighborhood or out in the open, it's fine. But if you're on a sidewalk or a path, you force everyone to get out of your way.Minuses First:EXPENSIVE. Everyone's comments were spot-on. Everything's a la carte and pricier than the competition. And if you want to take advantage of the flexibility of the travel system (car seat adapter) and a second seat, you have to go ahead and buy the second seat to get the second seat adapters. So your upfront investment is large.BIG. While it is an in-line tandem, the price you pay for it's flexibility is the fact that one kid is centered over the front wheels. All the other inlines put both kids within the wheelbase of the stroller. So while the overall length of the stroller in single position is about the same as all the others, with the second seat, that kid is out front making the stroller almost a foot longer than the stroller length. Some of the comments we saw are that the stroller is hard to steer with the heavy kid up front. That's definitely true given the fact that pure physics dictates that with the kid's weight out over the front wheels, it's hard to pivot. It's definitely not a deal breaker. Any stroller with two kids is going to be hard to pivot on a dime. And the weight over the front wheels also makes it harder to pop a wheelie and get it over a curb. Fortunately, we're two dads and we're both easily strong enough to do that. You simply put your foot on the back axle and tilt the stroller up.Car Seat adapter. Awful quality and design in stark contrast to something like the Bugaboo's travel system. The Bugaboo is a simple drop in, click, and then click the car seat right in. Because they are trying to be Universal, it isn't ideal for any single brand. Our Graco Snugride fits and is safe, but it's wobbly. Putting the adapter in place also works, but it's just not as simple as the Bugaboo's drop in. It takes two hands, you have to align each side (right and left) and then put a strap over the top. It feels like a cheap shortcut.Positives:QUALITY. The stroller exudes quality. It's polished, solid, and rolls smoothly over all surfaces. It is easy to put together in < 5 minutes, and you can take it apart equally fast for travel. Everything snaps or clicks into place with a solid thunk. Everything fits together well and there are no rattles. The Quartz fabric feels durable and hides dirt well. The aluminum and the canvas and the wheels are all of high quality and feel bullet-proof. The price for the stroller itself is probably appropriate and commensurate to its competition.Configurations. With two boys so close in age, we figured that there will be the inevitable fighting and kicking, but also hopefully peaceful and loving playtime. So the big attraction of the BJCS was the ability to put them facing together when they're good. Or we can put them facing apart or both forward on the rare occasion that they aren't the perfect little angels we expect them to be. The other inlines have one kid sitting below and behind the other. We didn't want one kid to always feel he was getting a second-class seat without a view. We also saw that configuration as an invitation for one kid to kick the other. At least that would be what I would have done to my sibling at that age.Cargo. Because of the way this stroller puts the second kid out front instead of down and behind, the entire storage basket is available for use. It's huge. You can fit a large diaper bag, a big purse (auntie's, not the dads'), and coats and sweaters from all the adults that are getting hot and sweaty pushing nearly 60 lbs. up a hill. This basket holds everything you would want on a stroll or trip. It's very useful for shopping trips and walking around all day because it carries so much and that you don't have to on your shoulders or back.OVERALL. For our situation with two kids close in age, this stroller seemed ideal and it has lived up to its expectations. It is not as maneuverable as our Bugaboo but it's head and shoulders better than a normal tandem. It beats a side-by-side stroller for overall utility. If your kids aren't going to be as close in age, the other inlines are going to be more maneuverable simply because all the weight is within the wheelbase of the stroller. The downsides of those strollers are that you give up the storage basket and the one kid sits down and behind.

I am so happy to have this stroller- I purchased with the 2nd seat- so now I can take both kids out much easier! Love the versatility with how I can adjust the seats forward or rear-facing, and they can either sit up or recline. I did not purchase the car seat adaptor as some other reviewers suggested. I do put my 2 month old infant in the seat in the fully reclined position and she is fine- there is a 5 point harness so I feel that she is secure. My 20 month old rides in the other seat. I do put the baby in the top seat nearest me, facing me, so I can keep an eye on her. It does make it a little more difficult to push the stroller having the 21 pound child in the front seat, but luckily she is small for her age. I will reverse them when the baby gets a little older. The large canopies are great- kept both kids mostly dry on a very rainy day out. Magnet see-through window is great. I take both seats off to fold the stroller and put it in my car. They come on and off very easily- takes a minute. Stroller folds easily also. It's a bit heavy to lift in the car, but I would assume most double strollers are. I am VERY happy with the choice to get the tandem stroller- can fit almost anywhere.My only complaint is that the front wheels kept locking up on us the 3rd time we had it out for the day, and we couldn't make turns without having to constantly manually adjust the wheels to the rotating position. I called customer service and they sent me a new set of wheels right away. I have only used the stroller once since then (without issues), so I am hoping that the problem is resolved. I will update this post if it's not corrected.Overall, very happy!UPDATE 2/2/12We have had no issues with the new wheels. Still very happy.
