Would the Joolz Aer be a good choice for an occasional use stroller for a 3.5yo (after the Baby Jogger City Mini GT2)?

Libby • 05 Feb 2024

Hi again! I have the Baby Jogger GT and it's great for my tall weighty 3.5 year old however, I would like to downsize to something that folds nice and small but is just as roomy - or near enough. We don't need off road capability anymore as we use a unirider for that but we need a stroller for days out, walking to town etc. Would a Joolz Aer be a good choice for an occasional use stroller? My daughter weigh 16.5kg and is tall too.

Thanks again for your help Eli!!

Hey, Libby and Merry,

Honestly, if you need something comparably roomy to the City Mini GT, you might be a bit disappointed - the strollers of that (travel) size are simply much narrower. If it's for occasional use, though, I think you'll be ok, you just need something with a tall enough backrest, which the Aer will be good for, and I can recommend getting that one. Again, though, count on the seat being smaller/narrower, and the wheels much smaller than what you're used to. If space is, however, important to you, I would not really downsize here.

Your -very berry- Eli.

Now, this is your place to ask. I'm listening.
