Baby Jogger City Select Lux

The luxury-featured compact convertible

see 1 parent review

The Baby Jogger City Select Lux is an improved version of the original Baby Jogger City Select. It is the highest and the most luxurious Baby Jogger stroller. The bucket seat can be tilted to a reclined sleeping position. There are two pockets on the rear side of the backrest, so you'll find a place for every little item. For a small baby, you can replace the seat with a carrycot or a car seat. With the purchase of additional parts, this stroller can have up to 20 different configurations. The siblings' set-up can combine two seats, a seat with a carrycot or a car seat, two car seats, or two Compact carrycots. The Deluxe carrycot will only fit on the chassis by itself.

The front seat can also be replaced with a shopping bag, which further extends the storage space of the extendable basket. New possibilities include a special bench seat or an additional sibling board, onto which an older child can jump during a walk.

The Lux is folded in two steps. Compared to the lower version, there is an additional step, but the stroller is 30% smaller when folded. Seats can be folded in half and thus occupy 60% less space than the original ones. You can also fold the stroller with one or two seats mounted. The larger wheels made of hardened rubber can handle even slightly rougher conditions. The renewed suspension system is softer. The brake has also been improved. In one direction, you can use it to slow down; in the opposite direction, it works as a central brake. All accessories, including bumper bars or snack bars, must be purchased separately.

Parent reviews of the Baby Jogger City Select Lux

if you own(ed) it, own it ;-)
parents say thx^^
  • truly all-terrain, even with two kids on board
  • great hand brake that helps so much while going downhill
  • the basic carrycot is a bit smaller in size, but the Deluxe is absolutely alright size-wise, and superb overall
  • carrycot only faces rearward (only parent-facing)
  • I minded a bit that the backrest cannot be adjusted individually, but my kids seem not to mind the style of the seats at all

For such circumstances - two kids needing a stroller at the same time - I am happy with my choice. I didn't find anything better or comparable, maybe except a Peg-Perego, but that seemed less terrain capable...

Your questions about the Baby Jogger City Select Lux

1)

What age does the city lux stroller go up to, please?

Hey, Katie,

Depending on the size of the child or children, realistically, you can use it up to 2-2.5 years of age. You could fit a larger, older child, too, though he or she will be very tight in the seat unless a tiny child.

For an older sibling that is larger, I personally would recommend the bench seat accessory (only one can go on this, though).
