I got this for my sister and she loves it, she has a new born and a 3 year old daughter and both fit perfect. Even when it is her 3year old and my 4 year old daughter it still works well. It works best when its not on gravel, the stroller isn't exactly meant for it.

I think there is no perfect answer. For city and walking on sidewalks, this is wonderful. It won't do well on rocks or uneven ground. I am happy?

It's the best thing I have bought my daugher for her peace of mind for my grandchildren safety.

Love it! The downsides are: 1. Baby who rides in the front, if the infant seat is attached, has to sit at a 90 degree angle, completely upright. Looks uncomfortable, but my toddler doesn't seem to mind it. 2. It's difficult to see the front rider when the infant seat is attached. For the price, not too bad. For groceries, you'll need something to hold groceries and diaper bag, its difficult to access the cargo area with an infant seat. If on flat terrain, will work great!

This stroller is awesome! I nannied for two boys (1 and 3) and this stroller was awesome for many uses from travel to putting them to sleep. Rain cover is really handy too. I will mention I was in a quiet area and didn't have to do sidewalks and load unload from car often in that case I think you might find it a little on the bulky side depending in your needs.

Yes, this is exactly the reason we decided to go with this stroller---because it seems to be designed with NYC life in mind. It is also great from traveling on planes and other. Between the traditional City Mini and the City Mini GT---I think I like better the City Mini (2011 version)--although we only used the GT (2014 version) for a few months because our daughter grew out of using strollers on a regular basis. Overall these are great strollers and would highly recommend them!

Actually, if you are looking at the most current City Mini Double stroller by Baby Jogger that hasn't been released yet, you may want to double check with them directly before you purchase anything because the adapter they are showing on their website looks a little different.

I would recommend the mini BC of the age of your child, my daughter has had both and the maxi would have been way too much for her at 2.

Not a great choice for either I would say... its not an offroad stroller, and its simply too large to be reasonable at a busy airport. I wont lie, this sucker is heavy and long. I would take measurements of your vehicle before you buy because it wont fit in some. That said for things like zoo days or parks with sidewalks, we absolutely love it. Our 4 year has some physical limitations and the back seat allows her easy in and out and lets her feel like a big kid without being strapped into a traditional mobility stroller. I completely endorse it, but you need to be aware this is probably not an every day kind of stroller.

our twins are just turning 2 years, they are 28-29 lbs, I'd think it still be good for another 2 years. First, when we had it, the issue is on the belt by the belly (left&right;) very tight. Then i wrote an email to Customer Service at DreamonMe.com to ask for extension belt, they sent them by mail within a week for free. Great customer service. I don't see any other issue on the stroller, we still use them.

I would go to a baby store that has an assembled stroller in stock and let the clerk know you want to buy a double, but you have to make sure it will fit in your trunk first. Both the local Buy Buy Baby and Babies R Us, let me try a couple of strollers in the trunk of my Fit and my sister's PT.

If you think this stroller really will fit your needs then maybe you could invest in a stroller carry bag. Just a thought.

It will be a bit big for her now, but the quality will last her for a couple of years. I would do it even with it being big because it's a really stable stroller.

I have a 43" four yr. old and a 16month old, they both fit. I'm probably going to get another year out of it, atleast. I feel like it's the best option out there for a 4yr old. I'm going to keep her in it as long as I can. If I didn't have this stroller I wouldn't be able to get out and jog. I'm very happy with it!

It would work. It's just really heavy. I just sold mine. I have twin 1yolds and a 3yo. I'd buy a more maneuverable stroller for your two younger ones and an add-on standing attachment for your oldest. (Google "Stand on stroller attachment "). Happy strolling!

I love mine. It is great to just snap the infant seat in and go. It is really easy to fold up and it rides really smooth. I can't compare to the city mini. The only thing is my son hated his infanct car seat so we really were only able to use this stroller for 2 months so you will need another stroller eventually

To be completely honest, I have NO idea why I bought a double stroller. We've used it but two times, maybe and I find it's only useful for twins or other multiples. I have the cover, unused, and buried in a closet somewhere. A baby bjorn and regular stroller will be just as sufficient.

We do it ALL the time!!! You might also want to look into the Joovy Bumprider Universal Stroller Board. :)

The beauty of this stroller is that it's lightweight, compact, and durable. The compact part is your issue here. Not a lot of width in the seat area. We use ours for my 1 yr old and 2 1/2 year old. It might work for your trip, but your son will very shortly if not already outgrow it. You might be in a tough spot due to age and size of kids. We were recently in Disneyland (CA). They do rent double strollers at a reasonable rate (by Disney standards).

Depends what you mean by infant.... The unit is great in restaurants for any child who is big enough for the stroller (I think Baby Jogger says 6 months+). My son was in it before that. It fits on many different types of tables. We took it camping as our high chair and it was great on even a picnic table. My two year old can sit in it too. The only issue is if the restaurant has small tables that would tip....or are made of glass. I love using the hy-chair in the Los Angeles area. I wheel in the stroller, pop off the seat and then I can fold and store the stroller out of everyone's way. I get compliments and questions every time I use it. I adore mine!
