Anyone had experience with this stroller in European cities, getting in/out of buses (with/without collapsing), in/out of shops, narrow sidewalks etc?

I haven't taken it to Europe, but trying to fit it into a shuttle bus at a US airport was a nightmare. Way to heavy and bulky. I doubt that it would be good for narrow sidewalks and shops. Is probably take a lighter weight double umbrella stroller instead.

I have not taken it to Europe, but it doesn't fit through the doors in my house (though it will in retail doors) so I highly doubt it would fit in (generally narrower) European shop doors. Collapsing it to get on a bus would be a major pain for any double, I have no plans to ever take it on a non-handicapped-accessible bus in the US, can't imagine it would be easier in Europe. In general, it's about the same dimensions of a large wheelchair, so if a wheelchair could get there this stroller could. I'd also note that the warranty does not cover use on stairs, which is likely a problem.

Yes, this is a great stroller for the city of the beach! Its very popular and is a great design!

Right now I have the pram attached to it. We have taken it to the OB office and a pediatrian office and it fit just fine in those rooms. I have also taken it toPublix, Target, Babies R Us and it fit like a dream through the aisles and such. I also went to the Dollar tree. I have had no issues fitting in the aisles. I was worried about that too. But it is not a bulky stroller really.

It's the same width as a regular stroller- maybe a little wider, but VERY long. I don't find it especially easy to maneuver, and if you will be using the carseat attachment it is even longer. When we travelled and knew we would be using public transportation I didn't bring this stroller. I felt it would be too unweildly for the trains- especially because it really takes two hands to close and with two little ones I just didn't have enough hands!

It is pretty heavy, in my opinion, compared to my previous Combi Cosmo stroller. This is a full-sized stroller that is bulky and doesn't collapse very small. It's the bulkiness that makes it difficult to carry if you are carrying other things as well, like your child or bags. I would consider other combi strollers that are more compact if you anticipate a lot of bus rides.

Not that great. I wouldn't take it on long walks in those conditions, but NO stroller does good in gravel :)

This is not an all terrain stroller. It is better for sidewalks, malls etc. It does great for those but I wouldn't recommend it for snow/ice.

Yes it definitely works. However the material is very flimsy and the zipper may become detached after a few uses. My friend has the JJ Cole Bundleme for strollers and it seems much sturdier. She also has the City Mini. I will be getting that one for this winter.

I just came back one month ago from germany and the stroller worked perfect there. It was great for the airport I jsut had a hassle putting it apart to fit it in the gate check bag which was unnecessary. But one button and the stroller folds... I definitely would recommend it for airport travel and european streets and sidewalks. I don't know any other stroller that folds that flat and that convenient

I have the city mini double stroller. It fits great! It's a little awkward to walk at first but you get used to it. I couldn't live without it!!

We traveled with ours and it was easy. The stroller folds up quickly and was easy to maneuver through security. We chose to gate check and enjoyed having it available at our layover. The stroller held up well and has no damage from the travels.

Yes. I love this stroller. my husband uses the maclaren triumph and this is soooo much better!

The stroller is SUPER easy to fold. The well can be locked into place or free turning. I have not had any issues with wobbling. Not sure what they are referencing there. We have taken it to places where you walk around for hours and have had no issues. It is very easy to push also.

I've used this stroller on rough surfaces and it did fine. The tires are solid, not air filled, so you don't have to worry about getting a flat.

I am doing the same. I currently have a Kitty Walk with four wheels and it gets hung up sometimes. But I have also heard that the 3-wheeled ones are not as stable. Also, a HUGE factor for me is the weight. The Air Ride strollers weigh twice as much as the four-wheeled ones, and if you are going to have to haul the stroller around much then that is a major drawback, IMO.

As much as I love this stroller, it cannot fold for travel. You can break it down but it's really not meant for quick fold and go.I think there are some out there that have that feature but of course they are a bit more in price.

Indeed pedestrian mode in Garmin (255w) never works well, but I never had a problem with my 255w while driving in Italy. I have been trying to find out if the newer models are any better than an older one I have - 255w - and which still serves me well, including in Europe. My main issues with 255w are:1). it takes up to 15 min to locate a satellite 2). if a planned road is closed (due to an unexpected repair, etc) it is impossible to make 255w make another route.I wonder if this new model would have improvement over these issues. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks! Indeed pedestrian mode in Garmin (255w) never works well, but I never had a problem with my 255w while driving in Italy.
