2 out of 5 stars Wish it would have worked better for me   February 5, 2010
Christina M. Bacci (Lansdale, PA)
I really, really wanted this adapter to work for me with the city mini stroller so I did not have to buy multiple strollers. I bought the Graco Snugride 32 carseat to go with it and even called the company to make sure it worked with this carseat since the directions didn't specifically say "32". The carseat fit into the adapter, however, the weight of the carseat with the baby in it made the stroller very unstable. If you just slightly nudge the stroller from the side, it will almost tip over. I never tried more than a slight nudge for obvious reasons but I would never leave the baby in it and not have one hand on the stroller for this reason. The adapter is kind of a pain to take on and off, but folding the stroller with it on is a pain because the bar will hit you in the wrist if you aren't careful and it hurts. I wasn't able to do the one handed fold with the adapter on because of how much it hurt my arm.

All in all, I really do like the stroller but since I didn't feel that using it with the carseat adapter and carseat, I did return it and buy a travel system and another smaller stroller that was less expensive than the city mini.




3 out of 5 stars It works, but do you need it?   January 31, 2010

I sent this back after I actually saw it. As other reviews note, it's $60 for basically a metal bar and brackets. I guess it's the kind of item where you want it to be overbuilt, but I also think the Baby Jogger folks know they have this particular market cornered.
We're thinking we'll generally rather carry in the sling or chest pack while he's still too small for the regular stroller, but I can't fully testify to that yet.
Finally, this rig is the same price as a new Snap n Go, and we were able to find one used (a Snap n Go) for practically nothing. I'm looking forward to using the stroller, but as for the bar it wasn't so much the actual money that made send it back as the sneaking suspicion that I'd been had. Maybe find another solution for the few months they can't just ride in the stroller.



5 out of 5 stars Great, helpful adaptor   December 13, 2009

The adaptor works great and is easy to install. It was well worth the money--I needed my hands free on a trip that involved the need to transport the stroller, car seat, and baby on a train by myself and without the adaptor I could not have done it. It's leightweight, too, so did not add much to my overall luggage load.


5 out of 5 stars REALLY IS A MUST HAVE FOR BABY   November 7, 2009

I have a 2 year old AND a 5 month old so taking baby out for quick trips can be too much if she's happy (or asleep!) so i can leave her in her car seat and pop here in her city mini...so great! adaptor pops into the side holes in a minute then you just add the adaptor bar (we have a graco snugride- best car seat imo). Some say that the car seat is not held in securly- this is not the case with ours-maybe they are not puting it in correctly. The car seat actually clicks on just like the snugrider snap n go- you can try to lift it off while on the bar and it will NOT come out unless you press the release lever on the back of the car seat (just as if it was installed on the base in the car!) Does not add any weight to our mini, just makes the fold a bit longer but not that bad. It is a bit of a pain to take the adaptor on and off so plan on keeping it on for the most part (which is ok as my toddler can still use the stroller with the adaptor on it). This is a must have as it is SO much easier keeping baby in seat for errands...you can just lay baby flat for longer outings in your mini/classic/elite as the seat goes flat :) hth!

Strong, nice construction, holds the car set well, and breaks down quickly. We use it when we're traveling/flying, and it's easy to set up or disassemble in the airport.
