The City Select is better for twins - higher weight limit than Britax
By Justbooking
With three kids under four, including twins, I've had my fair share of double strollers. The Baby Jogger City Select and the Britax B -Ready look very similar, but they're not when used in doubles mode. Which stroller is better really depends on the age of your kids. For twins or children close in weight, I found the City Select has more advantages, but if you have different age kids, the Britax is worth a look.Some considerations:* The City Select stroller was Baby Gizmo's top tandem stroller in 2010 -- the 2011 model has been redesigned with deeper and firmer seats, improving an already excellent stroller. The Britax B-Ready is a first-generation stroller and still has some areas that could be improved upon.* Of the two, the City Select is a better stroller for twins because of the 45 lb. weight allowance for each of its full-size seats (child's weight and baggage, for a maximum of 90 lbs overall), foot wells that expand to 10.5 inches and large canopies that raise up to 24", allowing you to use it all the way up till your children are age 4 or 5. The Britax only has one full size seat as the second seat has a lower weight capacity than the main seat.* The Britax B-Ready is a good option if you have two kids of different ages (1 & 3 for example) given the different weight limits on its seats. If you have twins, you'll be limited by the second seat's 35 lbs. weight capacity and a 22" canopy, to about 3 years old - only one child will be able to ride in the stroller past this weight (I still use my City Select with my 4 year old but will be able to use it with both my twins till this age as well).* Another important consideration is that the telescoping handle on the City Select extends from 39" to 41", whereas the handle on the Britax B-Ready does not (it has a pivot handle that goes up or down but does not extend). This comes in very handy for taller parents, when you raise the canopy on the upper seat (when stadium seating) to give you additional clearance, or when hanging a diaper bag with the seats in the rear-facing position, so the baby is not kicking it.* The City Select offers more clearance for walking with the second seat in than the Britax, either front or rear facing.* Both seats recline on the Britax forward facing, but the second seat is not reversible. On the City Select, both seats are reversible, but they recline fully only in the rear-facing position (with lots of leg room). I actually prefer this configurations as twins are people-magnets and when they are facing towards me and napping it's easier for people to stay away.* You can hang a larger than average diaper bag (like the Lassig Messenger Eco-Friendly Diaper Bag) from the handle with two seats in the City Select. (Note: the stroller handle says not to but because of the weight distribution I haven't had any problems).* The City Select allows for 16 configurations including two carrycots (Britax has 14)* The Britax B-Ready has a more compact footprint than the City Select, a plus if you don't mind the handle that doesn't extend or are not a tall parent.* For the City Select - handling curbs can be challenging going forward but if you pull the stroller backwards upor down the curb, it's actually easier than most strollers because of the large back wheels. It hasn't been an issue for me.Some similarities between the two strollers:* Similar width at 26"* Huge storage basket in both.* Tires that handle all surfaces well, indoors and out. It's worth mentioning that neither stroller is meant for jogging.* The City Select with the second seat weighs 33 lbs., similar to Britax's 36 lb weight, less than iCandy's hefty 44 lbs.* Both have the same recline mechanism on the seats.* Easy fold for both. With the Britax, you can leave both seats in and fold quickly. With the City Select, both seats need to be in stadium seating, fully upright with the foot wells folded down as far back as they will go (not horizontal), and then you can fold it with both seats. Honestly, it's a lot easier and faster to just pop off the seats and fold the frame (plus it fits in most cars because it's very compact, with the frames and seats folding flat separately).* For the City Select, the "Baby Jogger City Select Second Seat Attachment Brackets" are sold separately if needed on mystrollers dot com. You do not have to buy the whole second seat as some older reviews state.* Neither stroller's seats are appropiate for babies 0-6 months (even if the seats recline fully, they're in a "V" shape as the whole seat tilts). You can get optional car seat adaptors but if you live in a city, you may find that a single snap-n-go/ infant seat with an Ergo carrier for the 2nd baby (w insert #2 for babies 0-4 months) is the easiest way to get around for the first year. A double snap n go is even better and less expensive, and will allow you to use infant car seats so they can nap on outings. Another option is the Maclaren Triumph which folds compactly @ 22 lbs, reclines fully and can be used from birth up, if you want to have a stroller for travel for later on.Lastly, I also have Maclaren double strollers (Triumph & Techno) and the Bob Duallie. If you're looking for other alternatives, they're all good, but of all of these, I find the City Select is the easiest and most versatile to use with twins or a preschooler & baby (see my profile for a full review with pros and cons). If you're looking for getting one all-purpose stroller, regardless of whether you have kids close in age or not, it would be my pick. I only wish I had known about it before buying the other double strollers.

Wonderful cross between Phil Ted's and City Select
By Hande A. Hammett
I usually write reviews when I hate a product but I have to make an exception this time. This stroller is amazing, I have a 4 year old, a 15 month old and another one on the way and I tried everything from Phil and Ted's to City Select and Graco Duo Glider (not sure about the name). It's almost like they took the best parts of Phil and Ted's and City Select and created this stroller. This is by far the easiest to push even with a 35 pound 4 year old and a 24 pound 15 month old. I can navigate it fully with one hand when I have one kid in it. It handles very well even uphill. Both seats are the same size, just the second seat does not have the foot rest which makes sense because the kid's feet are in the basket underneath anyway. There is plenty of storage even with the second child's feet in the basket, you can reach it from the front of the stroller which is a life saver, again, when you have the second kid in. The bottom seat is much more spacious, higher from the ground and airy than Phil and Teds and it reclines fully, my 15 month old sleeps down there (It's the same 15 month old who refused to even go in Phil and Ted's, I had to return it). The seats are much larger than City Select (even the 2011 version with which the seats are an inch longer) and overall it's much shorter than City Select which makes it much easier to navigate. You don't need to walk around the stroller and pull up the front to get up a curb (that was ridiculous!) Also, I didn't feel safe with City Select because the second kid is so far out, he's out of your reach. It comes fully loaded with all the accessories except the universal car seat adapter and double rain cover. Belly bar, cup holder, Britax car seat adapter, single rain cover, storage pouch (which can't be used with the second seat on but I attached it to the handle bar, it works great) all included. The pictures don't do justice, I was expecting a dull gray, it's however a bright silver color, very high quality fabric. It's easy to fold even with the second seat attached but it's pretty heavy. It's not a problem for us because we live in Manhattan and rarely have to lift it and put it in a car but it might be an issue if you drive all the time. I guess all doubles come heavy anyway.After months of research, reading reviews and using other strollers, I finally found the one! And I'm finally getting rid of my Bugaboo (and the humble Buggy Board) because this can easily be used as a single too.

Great stroller with minor problem when you use the infant car seat
By Mommy of Two
This is a great stroller. If you don't use the second seat, the storage basket is HUGE. I can easily store a smaller cooler along with my large diaper bag (with room to spare) in it when we go to the beach and the parks. The seat reclines very nicely and I was able to use it with my rather large perschooler just fine. The stroller itself handled really well with my daughter in it (she's 45 lbs). The one step break system on the stroller is very nice. I like that it has many compartments for drinks. The stroller comes with a cupholder but it also has a storage unit on the bottom where you can hold 2 more drinks. When I have my baby with me, I use the cupholder for my coffee, one of the bottom cup holder for my daughter's water bottle and the other one for my son's bottle. The seat can be easily removed so that you can use the stroller with an infant car seat. I have the Britax infant carseat and it fits very nice in it. My only complain is that it is a hassle to unclick the infant car seat from the stroller. Basically, you are suppposed to be able to pushed two buttons on each side of the stroller to unlock the car seat from it. However, because where the unlocking clicks are located are hard to reach, I basically always have to release one side and then another while making sure the side I already released does not click lock again. For the next model, this is something that the company needs to improve on.The stroller itself is very stylish. After I bought my stroller, my best friend bought one for herself also. My stroller is silver and her's is green. I thought the green looks more classy than the silver, but both of us get stopped by people all of the time. People either comment on how stylish and nice the stroller looks or they want to know what brand because they are interersted by checking it out in the stores.The stroller is a bit pricey, but the quality is there. My best friend (who also owns the exact same stroller) and I both agreed that it is well worth the price. We owned other cheaper stollers before buying this, but after using this stroller, we agreed that we should have invested in a nice stroller like this one to begin with.
