Baby Jogger Classic Double Jogging Stroller

Double jogging strollers are great when you have a couple of kids that are in the same age range as each other. Since they would have roughly the same build and size, they would be able to fit in one stroller and go together on your trips.

One of the bestselling double jogging strollers is the Baby Jogger City Classic Double Stroller. This stroller packs these features:

• A Quick fold technology patented by Baby Jogger
• Accessory mounting bracket
• 12" quick release wheels with front suspension and  lockable swivel front wheel
• Padded reclining seat
• Individually adjustable multi position sun canopy with clear view windows and side ventilation panels

So do these features perform well enough?

What I like about the stroller:

• Very easy to fold

The quick folding technology that Baby Jogger employs in the Baby Jogger City Classic Double Stroller is as good as they claim it to be.

Many people are amazed at the ease of folding the stroller. Unlike other strollers where you would have to struggle and strain just to make it more compact, the Baby Jogger City Classic Double Stroller just uses simple and easy to follow steps.

• Individually reclining seats

My kids can be finicky about their preferences. Sometimes one child would want his seat to be reclined, while the other would want to be leaning forward. This can become trouble on strollers that don’t recline individually.

Fortunately, the Baby Jogger City Classic Double Stroller’s seats are capable of reclining each seat according to the preference of the one seating on it. This means that my children can just follow what they want and not have to compromise with the other.

• Not too wide

One of the problems that people have with using double jogging strollers is that it is sometimes too wide. Some people would have trouble entering places that have doors that do not fit the double jogging stroller.

That is why I like how the Baby Jogger City Classic Double Stroller is able to be a tad narrower than other strollers in the market, without having to sacrifice the comfort of the children who are seating inside it.

Things that could be improved on:

• Bigger Basket

Carrying two children would mean that I would need to bring plenty of baby items as well as my usual packages. However, I find that the storage space in the Baby Jogger City Classic Double Stroller’s basket is quite small.

A bigger basket might have been better.

• Tougher Construction

I also wish that the Baby Jogger City Classic Double Stroller felt a bit tougher or stronger.

While the Baby Jogger City Classic Double Stroller is not frail or weak, it just feels a bit weaker or not as tough as other jogging stroller models.

Sometimes, I don’t have the confidence that it would provide a good ride for my children when we pass through some rough areas.

Bottom line:

The Baby Jogger City Classic Double Stroller is a good choice for people who want to have a good double jogging stroller for normal day to day use. It is great as it’s relatively compact size (as compared with other double jogging strollers) would allow you to get into and out of the places that you want to visit.

However, people looking for a tougher or more “outdoor” types of stroller may need to look for other options.
