Better than the City Mini,
I was in search of a lightweight stroller for running errands, going to the store, etc but wanted something more substantial than an umbrella stroller. Since my baby is 2 months old, I also wanted something that could lie flat. I got several recommendations from neighborhood moms for the City Mini, so I was pretty much sold on it until I went to “test drive” it and came across the new B-Agile. The strollers have the same look, are the same size, and just about the same weight. But, the B-Agile won me over because it has:
- a much smother ride – the shocks seem better and the wheels are better
- better foot clearance – the City Mini is not good for people with long legs and/or people who take long strides. B-Agile has a curved bar so your leg can fit
- better seat padding – the City Mini feels hard as rocks compared to B-Agile, plus B-Agile has a great infant head rest
- fabric isn’t as “slippery” – City Mini fabric feels slick and cheap
- handle bar much more comfortable to hold – similar to BOB
- folding is SO easy and locks into place automatically
Everything else is comparable or the same. For $10 more than City Mini, get the B-Agile. Only downfalls are the expensive attachments (you will pay just as much for Baby Jogger City Mini attachments)….for $249 you’d think they would give mom a cup holder for coffee!!!

|B-Agile vs. City Mini – B-Agile is great – almost perfect!,
I had a Bugaboo Cameleon since my son was born – but we are now moving from NYC to the suburbs and the Cameleon just isn’t easy to get in and out of the car, so I sold it on Craigslist and looked at both the 2011 Baby Joggger City Mini (BJCM) and the B-Agile. I ended up liking the B-Agile more than the City Mini for a few reasons:
1) I’m short (5’0″) and the handle on the BJCM was way too high for me. It was also wrapped with this cheap plastic/rubber handle guard which I didn’t like at all. The handle on the B-Agile was exactly like my Bugaboo – felt like the same height and was also wrapped in the same material as the Bugaboo.
2) I found the push/glide of the B-Agile to be better than the City Mini. I see almost no difference between it and the Bug Cameleon. It might even be easier to maneuver b/c of the 3 wheel design!
3) B-Agile has suspension. I don’t believe the BJCM has any suspension – at least it didn’t feel like it did!
4) I liked the material better on the B-Agile better than the shiny slick material of the BJCM. (This is a personal preference, of course.)
5) The seat in the B-Agile was roomier and overall looked more comfortable. The seat was sturdy and structured – not a slumpy soft material seat like the BJCM. Both strollers provided good back support.
6) The straps on the B-Agile outshine the BJCM by a million miles. They are so easy to adjust – no re-threading or re-clipping needed and the buckle is childproof. (Many of my friends 3 years olds can get themselves out of the BJCM buckle in an instant.)
7) The basket is more accessible than the BJCM.
9) The peek-a-boo window in the canopy is mesh (not ugly vinyl) and allows for air-flow.
Now for the complaints…..
1) The seat in the most upright position is not upright at all. It’s still at a pretty significant angle. My son likes to sit up and look around and he simply can’t do that w/ the B-Agile in it’s manufactured state. With that being said, I was able to rig the straps that adjust the incline to make the seat upright. Basically, I take the 2 hanging straps in the back of the stroller and wrap it around the frame. Then, I take the D-shaped rings at the end of the strap and fit them in between the snaps that connect the seat material to the frame of the stroller. It works very well, except you have to unsnap the rigged straps before you collapse the stroller. Not a huge deal, but Britax should have made a more upright seat, like the 2011 BJCM velcro strap option.
2) The frame is creaky sometimes when the stroller is loaded up with stuff and you need to turn it.
3) After the promotion is finished at the end of August, the stroller will come with no add-ons. ALL add-ons need to be purchased separately. I wish it just came with at least one added feature like a cup holder, a rain cover, a carry bag, child tray, etc.
4) The child tray attachment is a good feature, but I wish that it was adjustable! It’s just too far out for my 17 month old son.
3) The storage pouch in the back kind of hangs in an ugly way, in my opinion. You can roll it up to get it out of the way…. but then you can’t use the storage pouch!
I think that’s it! Overall, I’m very happy with the stroller and think it was a good choice for my needs. If the seat went totally upright on it’s own, I would have given this 5 stars, instead of 4!!!

|Love this stroller….,
We were looking for a high-end but lightweight, compact, travel-friendly stroller. Our umbrella stroller wasn’t cutting it anymore, and our Bob Revolution stroller was too bulky for travel, daily errands, and our sedan trunk. The Britax B-Agile is light; I can carry our 25lb baby in one arm and the stroller in another arm, up and down stairs; it is compact (went to the beach and could pack all our family’s items plus the stroller in our Infiniti sedan trunk); it is super easy to fold up (just grab by the carry handle and press a button-it collapses to almost flat. The sunshade is huge. The storage below the baby is adequate and comparable to that of the Bob. The stroller also has a reclined position for the baby, which is as easy as pressing a button to let it down, or pulling a strap to raise it up. Handle bar is a good height…I’m tall and like that I don’t have to bend over to reach it. I’ll probably keep the Bob for running on rough terrain, but that’s about it.
