What parents say

“Our special needs girl uses it. Its quality is excellent. This stroller is dependable, and I would advise anyone to use it. Price-wise, it is well worth it.” – K. February 02, 2021, 4 stars

“It’s an excellent stroller, but very costly. I don’t believe it’s worth it, especially since you’d always need a backup if you were planning on traveling – this one is enormous.” – N. August 29, 2021, 4 stars

Ease of Use

If you want the convenience of a travel system, just attach your infant car seat to the City Elite 2 using the City GO infant car seat adapters that are supplied with the package. When it’s time to get rid of the car seat and let your child ride unrestrained in the stroller seat, the adapters can be removed quickly and easily.

What parents say

“The canopy is big enough to cover my child, and there is ventilation so I don’t have to worry about him being too hot. Easy-to-clean textiles also make my job easier.” – M. June 12, 2020, 5 stars

“Both its push and fold are simple to do. The hand-operated brake is greatly appreciated by my sandal-clad feet. Additionally, the harness buckle functions well, is secure, and is difficult for the child to unfasten.” – W. May 30, 2020, 5 stars

“It’s got such a large space! And it’s very practical. I could have made it more attractive because I’m a fashionista, but now I realize that I prioritize practicality before appearance.” – A. March 27, 2020, 4 stars

Portability

This stroller weighs around 11.7kg., which is bulky and heavy for some parents. But thanks to its compact fold, carrying it around and storing it in your car or home is made much easier.

What parents say

“It’s got the market’s most portable folding all-terrain chassis. I am still able to take walks through the forest because I am able to fit the pram into the boot of my three-door Nissan Micra with plenty of room to spare. This particular stroller meets my needs.” – N. November 28, 2021, 4 stars

“Although there is some lateral movement, it appears to be solid enough. It pushes extremely easily. However, make sure your vehicle is spacious enough to fit it in.” – B. September 10, 2022, 4 stars

“It is far larger than anticipated. No matter how you try to open it, the floor scratches. It is really hefty and large.” – M. March 28, 2021, 3 stars

“If you don’t remove a wheel, it won’t fit into smaller automobiles. While it has a smooth ride and is of good quality, it’s so wide and difficult to fit it through some doors.” – A. January 6, 2021, 3 stars

Maneuverability

The City Elite 2 gives you confidence with its forever-air rubber tires; you won’t have to bother about pumping them up or worry if they will function properly and affect overall maneuverability. These tires will roll through any surface, including mud, grass, or gravel. This stroller wasn’t made for jogging, but you can go off-roading with it.

On top of that, the City Elite 2’s all-wheel suspension enables a smooth push for you and a comfortable ride for your child during your everyday adventures.

Some parents in our survey say that this stroller is a dream to push as it can be maneuvered with just one hand.

What parents say

“The three all-terrain wheels give the City Elite 2 a sleek and athletic look. With just one hand, pushing it is extremely simpler.” – M. June 12, 2020, 5 stars

Safety and Quality

While the adjustable calf support and nearly flat seat recline help you to select your child’s most comfortable position, the City Elite 2’s one-hand compact fold, adjustable handlebar, and hand-operated parking brake provide you the utmost convenience. Its fabrics are easy to clean and maintain.

There are just some slight hiccups in terms of quality for the clip holder. Some parents have reported that it got broken after just a few months of using it.

What parents say

“This stroller’s enormous seat will last virtually forever. It may be a tank in practically any circumstance. Although it is somewhat bulky, I wouldn’t change it!” – L. April 10, 2021, 4 stars

“The harness buckle also functions well, is secure, and is difficult for the child to unfasten. The fabrics are simple to maintain, and both the hood’s coverage and airflow are excellent.” –W. May 30, 2020, 5 stars

“It’s simple to operate. I’m just dissatisfied because the clip holder has cracked after only six months of owning the pram.” – W. April 27, 2021, 4 stars

Accessorize Your Baby Jogger City Elite 2

Other Baby Jogger extras such as the belly bar, rain cover, or child tray can be added to your City Elite 2. The City GO Capsule car seat adapters that come included with the City Elite 2 allow it to be converted into a travel system in a flash. Even the smallest travelers can be accommodated by adding a bassinet. Kindly note that the City GO Capsule and Bassinet are sold separately.

What parents say

“We also purchased a rain cover, but we haven’t used it yet. The stroller folds up nicely. We bought the tray and bar. My young son can enter and exit with the bar in place.” – G. September 29, 2021, 5 stars

“We love the add-on tray.” – G. December 8, 2020, 5 stars
