I want to buy a buggy for my daughter's first baby. I have seen lots of reviews for Phil and Teds and Mountain buggies but we quite like the look of the Baby jogger city elite, Has any one got one or has any views on them? She is not likely to jog with it but might walk on rough tracks and off road a bit. Thanks for your help

Hi, I have one of these buggys and find it really great. (got off trademe) The sun visor comes down heaps lower than on other buggys. I just use it for walking out and about. I have a talk baby and found that the back is higher than other buggys. You can fold it using one hand. The wheels come off so allow more space in the boot if needed, also fits in the bags that the airlines provide if your travelling. The only downside is that if your going to be taking it in and out of the boot it starts to get a bit of a pain, but guess you will get that with most buggys. We tried serveral buggies out in store before deciding. Really love this buggy. |

| I also have this buggy. I was looking at getting a Phil & Teds, but with my long stride I kept hitting the rear axle as I was walking. No problem with the City Elite. Only one downside I found - and this may be the same with other buggies - is that it is hard to access the basket under the seat. It was easier when we had the bassinette on instead of the seat, but now with the seat it's a bit hard. I just hang the nappy bag from the handle (even though it says not to!!) I would recommend this buggy. |

ooh http://www.winkalotts.co.nz/baby-jogger-city-elite-2012-buggy-black/ I was going to wait until after Christmas to start shopping, but the $200 savings was too good not to buy it now! I emailed them asking about the warranty as I want the warranty to start from when I start using the buggy, and they have said that will be fine exciting- my first big purchase for baby! ------------- http://lilypie.com" rel="nofollow">
