Our Review of the Baby Jogger City Elite Single stroller

Wrapped in fashion forward fabrics and featuring all the best that Baby Jogger City Series strollers have to offer, the new Baby Jogger City Elite has all the features that put these all-terrain strollers on the map - plus extras like a handlebar console, six separate storage compartments, and wide tread tires. If you're an active urban parent in need of a great looking, convenient, and smooth rolling stroller - the smart money is on the City Elite.

Is it for you?

Best for: Urban and suburban parents with 1 child who need a stroller for everyday walking & errand running. The Baby Jogger City Classic single is not equipped for jogging.  

WHY YOU WILL LOVE IT

Beyond its uncompromising style, the Baby Jogger City Elite offers parents a degree of accessibility and maneuverability that few other strollers can match. The City Elite is light, narrow, easy (for anyone) to push and equipped with the quickest folding mechanism in the history of baby strollers. Factor in the new City Elite's high weight capacity (75 lbs.) and ample storage space, and it's clear that this elite Baby Jogger City Series stroller offers the epitome in versatility and pushability. 

Convenience

No strollers fold faster than a Baby Jogger with Quick-Fold Technology. To fold your City Elite stroller, you simply grab the padded handle at the back of the seat bottom, lift, and then hook the storage latch. Just like that, your stroller is folded and ready to go in the trunk or closet. There's the added convenience of the City Elite's multitude of storage compartments beneath, behind, and above the seat. And don' forget, every City Series model is compatible with a long list of Baby Jogger accessories to enhance the look and functions of your all-terrain stroller.

The City Elite is equipped with a universal accessory mounting bracket that allows you to equip this stroller with a wide range of useful Baby Jogger accessories. Valuable features like magnetic closures on the peek-a-boo canopy, an included handlebar console, and a one handed way to recline the seat make the City Elite stroller from Baby Jogger even more valuable to parents on the go. 

Pushability

For everyday strolling on or off road, it doesn't get much better than the stable frame and wider tires of the Baby Jogger City Elite. Its adjustable height handle allows mom, dad, even big brother or sister to push this smooth rolling swivel wheel stroller comfortably. The smooth swivel wheel allows you to turn on a dime and is great for crowded areas. For long walks or a little off-road adventuring, the front wheel locks forward for tighter steering control.

WHY BABY WILL LOVE IT

A boy or girl up to 75 lbs. is sure to enjoy rides in the unsurpassed comfort offered by the Baby Jogger City Elite. With is deep padded seat that easily draws down to a near full recline, there is little this stroller leaves to be desired.  

Comfort

The City Elite features a deep seat with full padding, as well as padded shoulder straps for the 5-point harness, creating a comfort cradle for your child. The seat reclines (with just one hand) to a near full recline or any angle in between. It also comes with the biggest and best retractable sun canopy on the market, capable of providing near complete shade (or sun) for your passenger. The City Elite features a unique raised "kicker" footrest for small children that also gives you front-side access to the underseat basket. 

Baby Jogger made improvements to the canopy as well, fitting it with side vents with a magnet enclosure for optimum ventilation and modeling them after European style 'bubble' stroller canopies. 

Safety

  • Meets or exceeds all ASTM safety standard
  • 5-point harness
  • Parking brake
  • Reflective stitching
  • JPMA certified

Comparison

For a travel-friendly Baby Jogger City Series stroller with 8" wheels that weighs less than 17 lbs, take a long look at the new Baby Jogger City Mini. If you really like the City Elite, some other swivel wheel strollers that may be of interest would be the Phil and Teds SP Single, which has the option of a second seat, and the heavy-duty Valco Tri Mode stroller.

LOVE the City Elite!

Reviewer: Natalie , Brooklyn, NY Date: August 11, 2008
We LOVE the Baby Jogger City Elite stroller and would highly recommend it! We did a lot of research on all-terrain strollers that are good for the City. We wanted a stroller with big wheels that could easily handle all the bumpy cobblestones in our neighborhood and go off-road in the park. This stroller is like an SUV it goes over bumps, curbs, grass, etc, very smoothly and is super-easy to push. We love the bubble canopy - it is much bigger than canopies on other strollers, and provides almost complete sun coverage (just our son's feet are exposed to the sun, so we put lots of sunscreen on them, or you can buy an additional sun shade if you want). The stroller is very well-designed, love the magnetic peep-holes, the super easy fold, the kicker foot-rest that also provides easy front-access to the basket, and the convenient parent console (we use it all the time for cell phones, keys, wallet, sunglasses, toys, snacks, water bottles, etc). Another advantage is that it goes up to 75 lbs so you can use it longer. Our 7 month old is huge for his age so we wanted a big weight limit. Finally, we liked that there is a jump seat for when baby #2 comes along (the bigger child rides in the front in the jump seat). We also looked at the Phil & Ted's because of that feature, but didn't like how the baby rides so close to the ground in that one - plus it had an inferior canopy and didn't seem as spacious for our big son. Here are the only negatives about the City Elite, which really are not so bad: 1) it is heavy, so not good to take on the subway or carry up stairs, 2) with a big diaper bag on the back, it tends to get a little back-heavy, especially if baby is not in it, and is sometimes a little prone to tip backward, 3) the basket is not super-big, although it actually stretches to hold a remarkable amount, and you can easily access it from the sides and front under the kicker. Overall a great stroller. We get compliments on it all the time and would definitely buy it again!

Better than a Bugaboo, and half the price!

Reviewer: Anonymous , New York City, NY Date: August 01, 2008
After using a Bugaboo Frog in New York City for 2 1/2 years, I unexpectedly found myself in the market for another stroller when my son reached the weight maximum for the Frog (40 lbs). I began looking for an all terrain urban stroller that would be 1) easy to push and navigate around New York City and 2) able to accomodate a 40 lb./38 inch tall toddler. After tons of research for strollers that could accommodate up to 70-75 lbs, I decided on the pro BOB Revolution - When it arrived I was disappointed to discover that my son's head was pushing against the bumper on the top of the seat-back. Not good. So...I called the people at JoggingStroller.com and next tried the Mountain Buggy Urban - he just barely fit (height wise) but more disturbingly, he cut his foot on the metal footrest. So back to JoggingStroller.com it went. Next up was the Baby Jogger City Elite which I have to say I L...O...V...E, LOVE!!! It is not only stylish, but the bubble style of the sun canopy gives you alot of extra head height for taller toddlers. This stroller is so easy to push that just glides down the street (it doesn't feel heavy at all). It turns on a dime, has a very sturdy build to it (without being clunky), and is a very comfortable ride for my son. In my opinion the City Elite pushes/rides so well that I much prefer it over my old Bugaboo. For urban moms its worthwhile to note that although it is a larger stroller, I haven't had any problems navigating in and out of various shops of the narrow aisles of grocery stores in the neighborhood. When comparing the City Elite to the Original City stroller, I decided that the extra $50 to get the City Elite was well worth it for me for the following reasons: 1) For those with taller toddlers, the extra head room afforded by the Elite's sun canopy is awesome; 2) The handlebar console is very handy; 3) I like the Elite tires more than those on the City - they are wider; 4) The seats are more padded - a nice feature for urban babies who spend so much time in strollers; and 5) I just really prefer the look of the Elite - very modern. In fact, I've had a number of people stop me on the street asking about it. Final mention: I have had a very positive experience working with JoggingStroller.com They were always professional and helpful. The shipping was timely and delivered as promised. They were most accomodating when returning the BOB and the Mountian Buggy didn't work out. And additionally, I had a slight defect problem with the City Elite two weeks after it arrived and they were most accommodating in exchanging the stoller promptly - no hassles.

I do love this stroller but I wish I would have gotten the city classic. I like the other reviewer had the wrong dimensions. I called Baby Jogger as soon as this stroller came out and they told me that the weight and size were the same as the city classic. The Elite came out a few months before the Classic in 2008 and as soon as the Classic was released, the company published the new specs for the Elite. The 2 inches in width and few lbs in weight really do matter. This stroller is great for strolling and walking and I love the quick fold. I just wish I would have gotten the Classic instead.

Pretty Good Stroller

Reviewer: Anonymous , Los Angeles, CA Date: February 21, 2008
I have researched strollers for a very long time and finally have come to the conclusion to buy the City Elite. I like the stroller, it's easy to push, nice comfortable seat for your child and the parent console is very convenient. Additionally I love the sun canopy. No other stroller company has such a hood, and it really makes a difference. And no one will tell you that a Baby Jogger is difficult to fold- you can't get easier! (Although to open it is a little bit of a pain. Since you can't open it with one hand, because it folds in half, you can't be holding your baby and unfolding the stroller at the same time.) I gave the stroller 3 stars for a couple of reasons. I think that buying the Elite as opposed to the city classic is really unnecessary. For $50 more it's not worth it. You are not getting features that are significantly better; the kicker, parent console, colors and basket accessible from all sides in my opinion not worth it. As for the kicker: for a new born- it's not necessary. The seat is quite deep and their feet, until they are over a year old will not even drape over the end. So you don't ever end up putting up the kicker, cuz their feet don't reach! Along with that, the kicker stand doesn't stay in its pouch. Whenever you fold and unfold the stroller the kicker stand (which is metal) comes out and drags on the floor, getting stuck in the wheels and making dragging noises on the ground. What I have done is safety pinned the pouch closed, and it's taken care of the problem. The parents console is great- I love it and it's a great addition, but not a reason to get this model, you can buy a parent console anywhere for much less than $50! Yes the basket is accessible from all sides, but not really. To get in from the back is really annoying. You have to slide your hand all the way down the back pocket to finally reach the basket; it's just easier to go to the side. You end up just accessing it from the sides anyway (which is what the classic has). I was very disappointed with the weight of the stroller. It is heavy. It states that it's 25 pounds, which by the way, when I bought it, everywhere said it is 21 pounds including Baby Jogger themselves until they recently switched it realizing it's heavier than the Classic. I weighed the stroller- it's 28 pounds. Which is a very big difference than 21 pounds, and you feel it, it's heavy. It is heavy to push, heavy to carry and heavy to store. Basically bottom line to all you parents that are looking for a great stroller and you're thinking of getting the Elite, unless you are crazy over the bubble canopy which gives it a different look, go with the City Classic. It has the long canopy, same size basket and the 2008 model has the options of adding the jump seat and all the new accessories. My recommendation is to buy the Classic and an additional parent console. Hope this helps!!!!!

Baby Jogger City Elite

Reviewer: Anonymous , Maryland Date: December 21, 2007
I was looking for a stroller that has it all and this seems to fit the bill! It's a nicer, plusher all terrain stroller with great features like TWO peek-a-boo windows, magnetic flaps, adjustable kicker, etc... It's a bit heavy but I don't think more so than any other all terrain strollers. Also, rumor has it Baby Jogger is coming out with a jumpseat similar to Valco's so you can add another down the line!
