[ I received this stroller from the Stellar Product Testing Panel. I was already using Baby Jogger City Mini 2 before I got this new update Baby Jogger City Mini GT3. I am amazed by Baby Jogger products. I have a couple of them. They never disappoint. It was again the case with this stroller. They are little pricier but you get better features. They are more padded, better construction. The handle looks more luxurious with leatherette, soft fabric which really suits to my hands. I really like that I can now adjust the height and position of the handle which I couldn ’ t in the previous model. It is very easy to do. I am on a tall side so this was a bonus for me. What bought me in previous model, and I am glad they kept that with this model too, is one hand pull to fold feature. This particular thing amazes me every time and has saved me so much time and trouble when I travel by myself and use bus/train or just have to pick up stroller with me and the baby into the apartment using stairs. However, in order for the stroller to be folded and be able to self stand, the handle needs to be pulled all the way. So that is an extra step for someone who doesn ’ t need to pull the handle at all because of the height. I ’ m glad I don ’ t. I was worried that standing partly on the handle will damage the leatherette material but the company took care of that and bumped little bit more the middle part of the handle where the logo is and where there is no material covering that part so the floor is only touching that part and the soft material stays intact while in that position. The lock for self standing and the lock for the stroller works perfectly. I love that the lock for the stroller is moved to the very end and not in the middle so it is easier for me to see it and press break. Another thing I love is the material used for canopy and seat. The color is perfect and unisex. The seat is well padded. I am not 100% sure if the material is waterproof or water repellent like with City Mini 2 but it is UV 50+ which is great. The harness is magnetic which helps a lot, especially if you in a rush and don ’ t need to break a sweat for adjusting the harness. It also makes it convenient for the older kids to unbuckle by themselves easier so you should keep that in mind. The seat reclines almost all the way. I wish it goes down a little bit more but it still is a good recline so my baby can take a nap comfortably. In the other model, seat reclined all the way but it also interfered with my legs and I bumped from time to time to the edge of the seat while pushing the stroller. Also, since I am out with kids a lot and most of the time for longer periods, I need a lot of storage space for all of their things like drunks, food, diaper bag, other bags, toys etc. This stroller allows all of that to fit. What I love is, that the edge of the back of the storage basket can be pulled down so I can fit bigger things which I couldn ’ t in my last stroller. That brought a smile to my face. The peekaboo openings and magnetic buckles are a plus. My best view is through that peekaboo window at my baby while he is exploring the world or just takes a nap. After all the testing, I can definitely say that I recommend this stroller and I 100% love it. It checks all my boxes that I look into a stroller and my lifestyle. I run into different types of surfaces and this stroller really makes the ride smooth for my baby and me and at the end, it really is what we need.

[ There are so many awesome feature with this stroller! First off I LOVE the smooth it rides and handles. It turns so effortlessly and the suspension makes for a smooth and comfortable ride. The magnetic buckles are AMAZING and along with the ability to make the straps longer without having to re- thread make adjusting the seat for more or less clothes on baby make it a breeze!. I love the adjustable handle and the leather on it. The one hand fold design is so effortless and makes storing in the back of my van so nice as it leaves more room for more stuff. Speaking of room, the basket under the stroller offers PLENTY of room for bags etc for easy storage and the spring fold down back of the basket make getting your items in and out so much easier. I absolutely love everything about the stroller, it was also EXTREMELY easy to put together out of the box. I love the magnetic flaps on the side and top of the sunshade, which by the way has a wonderful SPF rating as well as how the back will lay almost flat for nap time. I have received so many compliments on this stroller and the color is just perfect! The only thing that I would possibly change is the straps that connect for the chest that go down to the bottom snap come off rather easy when I am trying to apply the magnetic snap at the bottom, it is easy to re- attach them and there may be a way to lock those, but if not that is the only thing that I can think of that would help. Even with that one adjustment I would 100% recommend this stroller to anyone! We love it and can ’ t wait to go out on more adventures with it! Thanks to Stellar Product Testing for proving me with this awesome stroller!

[ I received the City Mini from the Stellar Panel to try out. As soon as I unboxed it, I was impressed with the finishes on the stroller, the beautiful, deep contrast color of the shade, and the leather on the handle. I ’ ve used many different strollers for my two boys, and this is the first and only that had a very plush and cushy seat. My youngest was clearly very comfortable in it. The stroller handled beautifully on our neighborhood walks( it was very easy to push it on different terrains and transitions were smooth). I like that the break is one touch, up or down, to lock and unlock it. I also took my oldest to Disneyland in it. I always sweat thinking about folding up strollers to get on and off the tram from parking to the parks, but the City Mini was by far the easiest to fold and unfold- I love that the handle to fold it is inside the seat! It ’s also nice that it stands on its own when folded( totally clutch when you don ’ t have an extra pair of hands helping). It was a breeze pushing my oldest around Disneyland; I walked over 11 miles and I would ’ ve tired out sooner in a different stroller. The storage basket is spacious and held everything we needed for the day. The City Mini handles like a full size, heavy duty stroller but with the convenience and lightness of a travel/umbrella stroller. The only thing I noticed is that my feet kick the front bar of the stroller when I ’ m pushing it( not a dealbreaker but definitely not something I ’ ve experienced before). Overall, this stroller is an incredible value for the price.

5 Impressed
[ We have owned a few strollers at this point and I have to say I was very impressed and pleasantly surprised by the City Mini GT3. It is sturdy and the materials are very soft and comfortable for my little. She is 2yrs old and seems to never want to ride in our current stroller but she seems to love this one! Picky kid approved! The stroller is easy to maneuver and rolls extremely smoothly. I like that you have the option to lock the front wheel straight if you want to jog with the stroller, however, I read elsewhere that the wheels are two small for this to be a true jogging stroller so use caution if you decide to use it as a jogger. Admittedly, I have not tried out the stroller as a jogger. We live the adjustable handle bars because my husband is taller than me and because we like to hang our diaper bag from the handle bars to free up the storage basket. When the handle bars are two low our diaper bag sometimes reaches the ground or gets in the way of our feet, but we do not have that issue with this stroller thanks to the adjustable handle bar. We were bummed that it didn ’ t have a built in stroller caddy for holding our drinks/other items, but this was easily fixed by adding our own caddy. We love the magnetic vents on the sun shade which doubles as a peekaboo window to spy on the little. The magnetic buckle is a great concept and definitely easier to use then other other stroller but you have to make sure the magnet engages properly. I recommend testing the connection before rolling away. All of the pads on the straps seemed to fall off easily but this seems to be a universal stroller issue. We love that it fully reclines with a large ventilation window. We also love that there is an option to kickstand the foot rest so little can recline and even nap more comfortably. Bonus, there is access to the storage basket under the foot rest which makes getting into the basket very convenient. The fold mechanism is much smoother and easier than other strollers we have had and the locking mechanism is a very simple side latch which I love. I wouldn ’ t say it stands very well on its own once folded but that ’s not a deal breaker for me. Overall, the City Mini GT3 is a very versatile and functional stroller which has quickly become our new favorite stroller for theme parks and daily use. Highly recommend! Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this stroller.

[ I received this stroller as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel. A previous iteration of the same stroller is one of our absolute favorites, so I have to say the GT3 had a very high standard to live up to. Pros:- beautiful color and lines- extendable leatherette handle through a push of a button. I 'm 5' 4 and my husband is 6' 1 so the adjustability is great.- the largest basket for a compact stroller I 've seen( and we 've tried quite a few). The back side actually folds down for easier placement of items. Basket is also accessible through the front!- the stroller fully reclines. The front lifts up and can be fixed in place so that it becomes a sort of a basinette for younger babies.- fabrics feel premier and the seat has soft cushiony material, like memory foam- you can lift the flaps on both sides and pickaboo window in the middle for ventilation- comes with adapters for the brand car seat- quick and compact one hand fold- straps adjusted for seconds for my tall toddler and the magnetic buckle feels luxurious- handled well a variety of terrains including our daily hike through the woods Cons:- minor and potentially personal preference- the frame is actually plastic but made to look metal. I think I 'd prefer it to just own it and be black plastic- a little heavy for a compact stroller at 27 lbs but I was shocked when I looked up the weight- because of the compact fold the lift is so easy I assumed it weighted no more than 20 lbs. Overall, would recommend for those living somewhere with smooth or extra bumpy sidewalks, and even moderately rough hikes, though not a jogging stroller. The very compact fold also makes it ideal for quick trips to the grocery store and travelling- compact fold saves trunk space as well!
