Love our baby jogger city classic! The fold is absolutely amazing and much easier than the BOB, Bumbleride, and P&T models. I tried out ALL the models, and this model was definitely easier to pick up and put in a trunk than the BOB. I also like that there is a toddler jumpseat/booster attachment available if you need to make your stroller a double. It handles well on all surfaces, decent size basket too.

I've only had this stroller for a few months but absolutely love it so far! Smooth ride and feels sturdy while I fastwalk or jog. My daughter (8 months) seems so comfy in it, and when my 3 year old nephew visited he used it and was comfy in it too.. So I'll get lots of use out of it. A bit pricey, but with a jogger I think you need to pay more for quality. Large sunshade to block all sun easily. Lots of compartments to store things. Folds up very easily. Baby reclines easily. Seems very sturdy and well-made so far. The only prob is that it didn't come with a tray for baby, so I had to purchase seperately.

Goes up and down stairs, curbs, etc. easily, and can go "off road". Small enough to take into store-- much better than a regular jogging stroller. Sturdy and tough. Steers well, and great for "power walks" and light jogs-- but probably not much good for serious jogging. The foot warmer is great for winter weather-- absolutely worth the extra $60, especially for a baby. And the Liquid Holster cup holder works fine with it.
Wouldn't work as a running-errands-in-the car stroller, because it's heavy and awkward to lift in and out of the trunk. We keep an umbrella stroller in the trunk for trips to the store. (Folds easily, though; if you need to fold it for travel, you can take the front wheel off and it folds up much smaller.)

I love this stroller. Yes it is on the heavy side but it is a jogging stroller. I love the one hand fold and large basket. I do wish it came with a cup holder and maybe a removable tray but like I mentioned, it is to be used for jogging. We use it everywhere. It is a bit big for the mall but it works.

This has been a fantastic stroller for us. Living in the city can be difficult enough without dragging a stroller through the subway on a daily basis. My City stroller folds so easily, just lift the strap in the center of the seat, that getting on and off trains, in and out of taxis coudln't be easier. This stroller is a must have if you live in any metropolitan area. I've been told by Baby Jogger that this stroller is not meant for jogging, but it's been great for power walking through the park and its pneumatic tires don't force me to stick to pavement either.
