Baby Jogger child snack tray - single seat strollers - Reviews

Comments:

Our baby is too young to use the stroller tray so I am reviewing the stroller only. We were looking for a functional yet attractive sport stroller and considered the Baby Jogger City Elite and a Bob Revolution. Both offered what we needed in function, but we chose Baby Jogger for its appearance, large headroom, magnetic flaps and easy fold system. We did not plan to jog with our baby, but instead take long walks along the shoreline near our home and pack it for outdoor trips. We have a combi stroller & car seat travel system for stores / malls that our baby loves so this jog stroller would serve more of an exercise purpose. Our 6 mth old loves her City Elite stroller and often falls asleep during the walk. The ride is extremely smooth and we roll over any sidewalk bumps and tree roots with ease. The canopy is an awesome sunshield and the quiet magnetic flaps never disturb our baby. A few things make this less than perfect: hard to access basket, no parent cup holder, footbar support does not stay in place after folding stroller. Overall, we are happy with the product an glad we did not buy the Bob. While I see people with Bobs everywhere, I always notice how uncomfortable and cramped the child looks and that flattop allows for little headroom. The fabric also looks too utilitarian for my taste. If my purpose was to jog, I might have been forced to choose the Bob.

Although the tray and cup holder are good sizes, the tray sits *really* high on the stroller... Even my 13 month old who is tall for his age cannot see into it. If he was any smaller, it would be practically over his head. Seems like it would be a pretty simple engineering fix to make it lower... you wouldn't even need to change the stroller, just make two "elbows" that make the tray lower, but the inserts in the same place... I was also a little annoyed that it doesn't collapse with the stroller. You have to separate the stroller from the tray unless you want it sticking up when the stroller is collapsed.

this is the perfect tray. it stops my toddler from coming out. the only minus which i have read other parents wrote is its very high. for my 21 month old its perfect but if it were a baby it would come up to the top of their head.
