Baby Jogger City MICRO

I know everyone here loves the City Mini, but does anyone here have the micro? and how do you like it?

I asked a similar question and someone gave me some good info on the micro in this thread. http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?t=2253674

thanks!

well I read the other thread. I don't give a poo about recline or basket size. I think I can tolerate the sunshade thing. Anybody know does it HANDLE okay? I mean since it has 6 inch wheels instead of 8"

I basically want a single stroller that will fold up small enough for me to take on a bus and has a foot well.

Joovy Kooper was my top contender until I tried it in the BRU and it handled ok, but not as good as the Mac Volo (which I don't want). After try the volo, the kooper actually seemed hard.

BRU didn't have ANY baby joggers at all, so I didn't get to try neither the mini nor the micro, but I know people who think the mini is the greatest stroller ever so I assume it handle just as nicely as the volo. I just don't want to get the macro and end up with something that handles like the Kooper or worse

Thanks for your help!

how tall are your kids? my 37 inch ds is super squashed in the micro

It is for my nephew who is 3. I think is is around 35-36 inches.

were you kids squished in the mini as well?

no there's much more room in the mini, can you try the micro with him in a store? that's your best bet

I wish! I couldn't find one in a store here.

I bought a micro because I absolutely LOVE my mini and thought it would be nice to have a smaller version to use at the mall instead of an umbrella stroller. I was slightly disappointed, I don't think its that much more compact than the mini but just has less room, less storage, etc. I know its supposed to be smaller but it seems I gave up a lot of features for a not that much smaller stroller.

if you buy it online from a place that has a retail store (like babies r us) its easy to return if your nephew doesn't fit

You can return things to diapers.com too and they pay the return shipping. If it is your first order you also get 10% off and they will price match if you find it cheaper somewhere else. Just got myself the city mini and love it
