Baby Jogger City Tour 2 Stroller Review

Thanks! How do you compare it with Babybee Miles? Thanks

Great question. I haven't had any hands on experience with the Babybee Miles. Looking at online reviews, videos etc of the Babybee Miles it does look like a sweet stroller. I like the fold mechanism with the standing fold (similar to a Joolz Aer+ or Bugaboo Butterfly) it also has a better harness buckle design with the four pieces individually buckle to the centre. From reviews there's some concerns with the quality of the wheel material getting dents from stones etc from first use. It's normal for travel stroller wheels to wear quickly because of the light material. The main thing I'm not 100% sure with the Babybee Miles is the backrest height vs the head space under the canopy. Babybee have listed the backrest as 48cm high. Baby Jogger tour 2 backrest is 42cm but head height under the canopy is 64cm. And from pictures it doesn't look like there's as much space for a taller toddler on the Miles as the Tour 2. So for myself having had very big babies and tall toddlers that's probably the biggest thing I would need check if I was comparing those models. Also generally with more affordable prams/strollers that have included extras (like the seat liner and belly bar with the Miles) and a lot of features, tend to have a lower build quality (because ultimately you get what you pay for) I hope that helps!

Thank you! I have bought the miles to try it. My deal breaker is that I have swollen wrists from carrying my baby and the canopy is stiff. I needed two hands to fold it. I wanted a travel stroller that is light and can be used one handed. I have returned it - they do have great customer service. I did buy the BJ City Tour 2 when it was on sale at Amazon. Not perfect but ticks all my requirements. Thanks for your review. It is quite extensive. Only thing I want to add is that if I add a universal seat liner, I won't be able to access the "carrying handle" after folding. I did repair my pram to add 2 holes instead as buying a custom one is too expensive 😊

I've seen with the baby jogger prams if the seat liner isn't too thick you slide the seat liner through the carry strap when you first put it on the seat (then do the harness straps etc ) you should still be able to use the carry strap. Hope that helps!

Although it would depend on the seat liner. I think the ones I've seen used on them (not just the tour 2, but the 3 wheel range because it's a functional pull-to-fold strap) are the "outlook" brand. Because it has Velcro flaps and a narrower section at the sides to accommodate waist straps.

This stroller is not carry on size unless the wheels are removed.

Until what age is this

[@ParentingCentral]

About 3-4 years typically. Depending on your child. But it is a very tall seat with a 22kg weight limit.
