4.0 out of 5 stars B-Agile vs. City Mini - B-Agile is great - almost perfect! August 7, 2011

By Rachel F

Color Name:Red

I had a Bugaboo Cameleon since my son was born - but we are now moving from NYC to the suburbs and the Cameleon just isn't easy to get in and out of the car, so I sold it on Craigslist and looked at both the 2011 Baby Joggger City Mini (BJCM) and the B-Agile. I ended up liking the B-Agile more than the City Mini for a few reasons:

1) I'm short (5'0") and the handle on the BJCM was way too high for me. It was also wrapped with this cheap plastic/rubber handle guard which I didn't like at all. The handle on the B-Agile was exactly like my Bugaboo - felt like the same height and was also wrapped in the same material as the Bugaboo.

2) I found the push/glide of the B-Agile to be better than the City Mini. I see almost no difference between it and the Bug Cameleon. It might even be easier to maneuver b/c of the 3 wheel design!

3) B-Agile has suspension. I don't believe the BJCM has any suspension - at least it didn't feel like it did!

4) I liked the material better on the B-Agile better than the shiny slick material of the BJCM. (This is a personal preference, of course.)

5) The seat in the B-Agile was roomier and overall looked more comfortable. The seat was sturdy and structured - not a slumpy soft material seat like the BJCM. Both strollers provided good back support.

6) The straps on the B-Agile outshine the BJCM by a million miles. They are so easy to adjust - no re-threading or re-clipping needed and the buckle is childproof. (Many of my friends 3 years olds can get themselves out of the BJCM buckle in an instant.)

7) The basket is more accessible than the BJCM.

8) The canopy is large, but not too large to block the child's view when out for a stroll....

9) The peek-a-boo window in the canopy is mesh (not ugly vinyl) and allows for air-flow.

Now for the complaints..... ;)

1) The seat in the most upright position is not upright at all. It's still at a pretty significant angle. My son likes to sit up and look around and he simply can't do that w/ the B-Agile in it's manufactured state. With that being said, I was able to rig the straps that adjust the incline to make the seat upright. Basically, I take the 2 hanging straps in the back of the stroller and wrap it around the frame. Then, I take the D-shaped rings at the end of the strap and fit them in between the snaps that connect the seat material to the frame of the stroller. It works very well, except you have to unsnap the rigged straps before you collapse the stroller. Not a huge deal, but Britax should have made a more upright seat, like the 2011 BJCM velcro strap option.

2) The frame is creaky sometimes when the stroller is loaded up with stuff and you need to turn it.

3) After the promotion is finished at the end of August, the stroller will come with no add-ons. ALL add-ons need to be purchased separately. I wish it just came with at least one added feature like a cup holder, a rain cover, a carry bag, child tray, etc.

4) The child tray attachment is a good feature, but I wish that it was adjustable! It's just too far out for my 17 month old son.

3) The storage pouch in the back kind of hangs in an ugly way, in my opinion. You can roll it up to get it out of the way.... but then you can't use the storage pouch!

I think that's it! Overall, I'm very happy with the stroller and think it was a good choice for my needs. If the seat went totally upright on it's own, I would have given this 5 stars, instead of 4!!! Read more ›

5.0 out of 5 stars Better than the City Mini July 27, 2011

By lwkathr

Color Name:Red

I was in search of a lightweight stroller for running errands, going to the store, etc but wanted something more substantial than an umbrella stroller. Since my baby is 2 months old, I also wanted something that could lie flat. I got several recommendations from neighborhood moms for the City Mini, so I was pretty much sold on it until I went to "test drive" it and came across the new B-Agile. The strollers have the same look, are the same size, and just about the same weight. But, the B-Agile won me over because it has:
- a much smother ride - the shocks seem better and the wheels are better
- better foot clearance - the City Mini is not good for people with long legs and/or people who take long strides. B-Agile has a curved bar so your leg can fit
- better seat padding - the City Mini feels hard as rocks compared to B-Agile, plus B-Agile has a great infant head rest
- fabric isn't as "slippery" - City Mini fabric feels slick and cheap
- handle bar much more comfortable to hold - similar to BOB
- folding is SO easy and locks into place automatically
Everything else is comparable or the same. For $10 more than City Mini, get the B-Agile. Only downfalls are the expensive attachments (you will pay just as much for Baby Jogger City Mini attachments)....for $249 you'd think they would give mom a cup holder for coffee!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars In the end . . . we chose the B-Agile! August 2, 2011

By Rose

Color Name:Black

We tried the Baby Jogger City Mini (BJCM), Britax B-Agile, and a few others in the store recently and decided to go with the B-Agile. Although we have only owned it for a a very short while, here are some of the things we love about this stroller:

- Current sale price makes it nearly $30 less than the BJCM and includes your choice of a FREE Britax item
- 55 lb weight capacity (BJCM is 50 lbs; most other strollers even less)
- Quick and easy 1-step fold w/ automatic stroller lock (BJCM does not have automatic lock); lock makes the fold more compact
- Very lightweight at 16....5 lbs (feels lighter than the BJCM although they are the same weight)
- Accepts Britax infant car seats w/o the need to purchase additional adapaters (a plus for us since we own Britax car seats)
- Large rear wheels (larger than BJCM)
- Narrow width which makes shopping and manueverability a breeze (width is slightly less than BJCM)
- Sliding adjustable no re-thread 5-point harness
- 5-point harness buckle is easy for parent to lock/unlock but very difficult for a child to do (BJCM is too easy for a child to unlatch)
- Nice seat fabric (seems comfortable, not slippery and does not feel cheap)
- Curved rear frame - keeps taller parents from kicking the stroller when walking
- Generous canopy w/ 1 mesh window (BJCM is slightly larger and has 2 windows)
- In full recline entire back of stroller has mesh pass-thru which can also be covered
- Generous storage basket (larger and more accessible than BJCM)
- Numerous seat recline positions with very easy toggle recline
- Soft and generous padding on seat, including an infant head rest (much softer than BJCM and most other lightweight strollers)
- Parking brake is 1-step foot
- All-wheel suspension (not sure if BJCM has this)
- Wheels easily remove for even more compact storage
- Wide/tall seat (nearly 14 inches wide) with very generous seat to canopy height (more than 25") - accomodates older/taller children easily

Overall, for us, this is a great lightweight stroller which we intend to have replace our Maclaren umbrella and more than likely our pricey Phil & Ted's from a day to day needs standpoint (plan to soon try it on grass, mulch, etc). It seems that it will be able to meet our needs of both of those strollers together and for just a little over $200! We rated it 5 stars but please keep in mind, we have not owned this stroller for very long. We hope in the months and years to come we will still feel it is worthy of this rating.

UPDATE (Aug 2012):
1 year later and our stroller looks nearly new and is still treating us well - this was a great purchase for our needs! Read more ›

4.0 out of 5 stars Solid Britax stroller has excellent ride and collapsibility; sterling customer service March 27, 2012

By Scott Schiefelbein VINE™ VOICE

Color Name:Black|Amazon Vine™ Review (What's this?)

I've seen a lot of changes and improvements during my 9 years of experience with strollers and while this one isn't perfect it's one of my favorites and I would have given it 4 ˝ stars if I could. This stroller has all the features of the bulkier and heavier travel systems and for my money this is the best choice for meeting most needs other than situations like being at the airport where you would want the more compact folding of an umbrella stroller.

What I like:
- Easiest unfolding and collapsing of any stroller I've ever used
- Excellent ride, very smooth, tight turning
- Large comfortable seat with a very large canopy that has a mesh viewing window
- Lightweight for the ride and comfort that you get
- Easy braking and brake release
- Very flat when folded
- Being able to attach the infant carrier basket is not common with strollers this light

What could be improved:
- As others have mentioned, the seat doesn't come to a fully upright position and the work-around that another reviewer mentioned doesn't really work for me since I use this stroller as my car stroller so I'm opening and closing it too many times in a day to take the time to set that up and unhook it every time.
- The solid bar handle makes one-handed steering a little harder than with strollers that have two individual handles. This is minor, but I like being able to hang shopping bags on the individual handles of some of my other strollers too.
- Returning the seat to the upright position from reclining takes two hands and I have to get down on one knee to do it.
- This is the only stroller I've ever owned that doesn't have a parent's tray or small pocket near the handles to hold things like keys, cell phone, etc.... There is a storage bag that hangs from the top of the seat back, but it is very large and deep, so those objects fall down to about knee-level where the bottom of the storage bag sits.

Even with the flaws, this stroller has such a fantastic ride for its weight (the only other stroller I have with as good a ride weighs twice as much) that I switched it with my umbrella stroller in my car. It weighs 5 pounds more than my umbrella stroller, but is still light enough that it hasn't felt inconvenient or cumbersome to use it several times a day.

As a reference, I am 5'11" and my wife is 5'9" and we both think the non-adjustable handlebar height is comfortable though I suspect someone over 6' tall might not find it as comfortable.

I want to comment also on an experience I had with Britax customer support. Our first stroller had a stiff foot brake and occasionally didn't disengage when I released it and I would have to set the brake again and release again to get it to fully release. I thought it might just be stiff because it was brand new and decided to give it some time to loosen up. But over the next six weeks the brake release got worse so I called customer support. I was told that the brake was an integrated part of the stroller frame so they would send me a replacement stroller. I was not put on hold or transferred to another department or made to feel like I was making up the problem. The replacement stroller arrived within a week along with a return shipping label to send the other stroller back. The new stroller brakes perfectly and my easy and positive experience with Britax customer support has earned them a loyal customer. Read more ›
