Color Name:Crimson/Gray|Amazon Verified Purchase
The product description here on Amazon does not state this, but the stroller I received is the new and improved 2011 model which was just released in October 2010. There are several buying choices for various vendors, but I purchased mine directly from Amazon even though it was a couple of extra dollars. The new strollers will have a large blue sticker on the box stating that it is a 2011 model.
Previous model years of the Baby Jogger City Mini had a "slouchy" seat, that many people described as hammock-like for the child sitting in it. The 2011 version of the stroller has a PE board inserted in the seat back, which corrects this problem. The seat back is now firm and doesn't sink in. It seems very comfortable for my 6 month old baby. If you have an older model of the stroller, you can purchase a PE board directly from the Baby Jogger company for approximately $10 or $15. It slides into the seat back, and you can not see it once it is installed.
Another improvement in the 2011 model is the addition of velcro straps that enable you to make the seat slightly more upright if you choose to do so. When attached, they pull the seat back about 2 inches forward which enables the child to sit up straighter. Personally, I am not impressed with this new feature. The straps are a bit of a pain to fasten, and you have to detach them before folding the stroller.
I really like the features of this stroller. The best thing is the easy fold. It is simple to do with one hand, while holding your child in the other arm. Basically, you grab a fabric handle on the seat and give it a slight tug. The stroller collapses very easily, and with no hassle. There are some good videos on YouTube that show the folding process. The folding mechanism is something you need to see to fully appreciate. I previously had a Maclaren Quest stroller, which had a much more complicated fold that I needed both hands to do.
The unfold is almost as easy. I can hold my child in one arm, and pull the stroller out of the back of my SUV and unfold it with the other arm.
The sunshade on this stroller is enormous. You can choose to pull it out either 1/3, 2/3, or the full way out. There are also 2 clear viewing windows on the sunshade which enable you to see your child. When not in use, there is a fabric flap that has velcro to hold it in place.
The storage basket underneath is a decent size, but because of the structure of the stroller, it is difficult to fit a diaper bag in. You can easily tuck in smaller items like blankets, toys, a jacket, small bags, etc though. Even though the manufacturer does not recommend it, I hang my large diaper bag from the handle. The stroller is VERY stable, and it does not tip backward. With the Maclaren Quest that I previously owned, a small diaper bag made it tip over.
On the back of the seat, there is a large mesh pocket that runs almost the full length of the seat. It has elastic on top, so things don't easily fall out. You can put jackets or blankets in this pocket, as long as you fold or roll them first. Small toys fit well too.
My only complaint with this stroller is that it does not have a drink holder. Baby Jogger sells a parent console for the handle, but it is rather pricey. I purchased a Sunshine Kids Stroller Accessory Buggy Buddy for less than $10 here on Amazon, which solves that problem for a nominal cost. Baby Jogger sells accessories for the stroller such as a child snack tray, or a bumper bar. There is also a car seat adapter available for purchase.
Update: We have had this stroller for about 3 months now, and I like it better than ever. We recently took a 9 day cruise with our baby, and brought the stroller along. The large sunshade in the tropical sun was invaluable. My daughter was able to easily nap with the almost flat recline. The easy fold/unfold came in especially handy with getting on and off trolleys, tour buses, water taxis, etc. It definitely is not a good stroller to try to push on a sandy beach, but I wasn't expecting it to be. :)
I also purchased the Baby Jogger Adjustable Belly Bar to attach to the front of the stroller. My baby likes to sit up and hold onto the belly bar. I also attach small toys to the bar using these simple toy straps, Baby Buddy Secure-A-Toy, Black/White.

Color Name:Orange/Gray
I wanted a universal stroller that I could throw in the trunk to go to the mall, park, and everywhere in between. I read many reviews and was torn between the City Mini and BOB revolution.
I really liked how the city mini was much lighter than the BOB. It was really easy for me to carry both my baby and stroller up the stairs at the same time. I would not have been able to do this with the BOB.
The one handed fold of the city mini is nice. I could fold the stroller while holding my baby. However, the BOB is just one more step and I usually put my baby in the car seat before putting the stroller away.
Th city mini has a sturdier canopy. It has two large peek-a-boo windows with easy to use velcro straps. The BOB canopy is not as nice, but sufficient and comparable in size.
I have an older BOB revolution, so the back is not as sturdy and supportive as the 2011 city mini. However, comfort and support can be easily enhanced with the right accessories.
My 10 week old could easily and comfortably fit in the seat when using the snuzzler. I needed to use the car seat (with adapter) with the BOB.
The BOB has rear-wheel shocks, larger wheels, and pneumatic tires. I had no problems pushing the stroller through non-mowed grass, mud, or gravel. The city mini only has front-wheel suspension and the tires look like they will wear easily. I could push the city mini through non-mowed grass, mud, or gravel, but I prefer to avoid it if possible. One major issue I had with the city mini is that the wheels would get stuck if I did not hit a curb ramp straight on (unless it was very low). I had no problems with the BOB and the BOB could go up any curb ramp at any angle.
The basket underneath are about the same size. However, I could not easily access the basket on the city mini due to the stroller frame. I had to squash my small diaper bag through the side to use it at all. I have a little better luck with the BOB basket.
The city mini is much more compact when folded down and has a latch. The BOB is a little bulkier and you need to use the leash to secure the stroller.
I love how the city mini is lightweight, easy to fold, compact size when folded, and cute. It's a great stroller for everyday use and can easily handle some strolls through the neighborhood (I wouldn't use it frequently on trails). However, I ended up going with the BOB stroller. I needed a stroller that could handle all the curb ramps in my neighborhood which is very important when crossing busy streets.

I have three kids under 4, and have been through a variety of strollers. This one is a good over-all stroller. Hands down, it is the easiest folding stroller I have ever seen. It's great for short shopping trips when I'm out with three kids all by myself because I canfold this stroller AND put in my car with one hand while I hold the baby in the other arm. It has some great features, and some features I thought could be improved.
Pros:
Easiest fold ever
Lightweight for the size
Excellent sun shade
Great recline
Straps are easy to adjust
Nice size--more substantial than an umbrella stroller, but smaller than a standard stroller
Handlebar is a nice height (I'm 5'!0" and it's very comfortable)
Cons:
Steering and ride are okay. For a standard, small-wheeled stroller, it's fine. Great for the mall, less than stellar at the park or on long walks or anywhere there might be something other than completely smooth pavement.
You can't hang stuff off the handlebars without buying those special hooks (not a huge deal, but it's been an annoyance a few times)
The storage underneath is a little difficult to get to. Not as bad as other strollers, but could be easier.
Like a lot of families with more than one child, I've owned quite a few strollers, and this is one of my favorites. It's the one that I keep in my car all the time for general errand running and shopping. It's not the stroller I take on nature walks or trips to the nature reserve, but over all it's a great general-use stroller.
