Amazing!
November 1, 2013
This is my third child and I have finally found the perfect stroller. Very easy to push one handed. Folds up flatter than any other stroller we have owned. Albee pricing was $100 less than other sites and it came within a few days. Customer service was fantastic. I was a bit worried the bamboo color might be ugly since it was marked down, but we love it!

Great All Terrain Stroller
September 1, 2014
We had been using a frame stroller for errands and traveling, but as our son outgrew his infant seat, we began the search for a multi-purpose stroller. After reading tons of reviews, doing stroller research and asking friends for their picks, we decided to order the City Mini GT and have been very pleased with it. It is lightweight and folds up very small (smaller than any other strollers we've seen, comparable to our simple frame stroller). We travel to visit family fairly regularly, so we wanted a nice stroller that wouldn't take up too much space in the car, which this stroller does not. It still rides nicely in a variety of terrains, though. It's great in stores, but it also handles well on uneven sideways, gravel and even the boardwalk on trips to the beach. The large canopy is great for sun coverage and the adjustable handlebars are great. Even Grandpa, who is 6'4", can find a height that is comfortable for him. The only con is that you have to order any accessories separately, which is a bummer considering the price. Regardless, we feel this is a great stroller, good value and we've already recommended it to several of our friends. We wish we'd found it sooner and skipped the frame stroller and just purchased the carseat adapter!
Pros
  • Light, very compact fold, full canopy for shade, adjustable handlebars are especially great for taller people
Best Uses
  • Daily errands, indoor strolling, outdoors on sidewalks, roads or trails.
Cons
  • Expensive, does not come with any accessories

Great stroller for a young toddler
May 31, 2014
I bought this stroller to use with my 18-month-old going in and out of a NYC walk-up apartment and around the city and the parks. She loves it and sleeps really well in it (better than in the UppaBaby). I love the ease of steering and the way that I can collapse it while holding her. It's easy to carry up and down the stairs and fits everywhere I want to go. My mom loves it too and says, "It's like someone asked moms what they want in a stroller and then made it!"
Pros
  • Stretchy sides on the basket.
  • Adjustable handle bar.
  • Wheels roll fabulously.
  • Recline is great and baby sleeps really well in it.
Cons
  • Have to buy all the accessories separately.
  • Basket is a little too small.
  • Plastic see-through windows in the canopy.

This stroller is the best one I've tried. It is well made, folds easy, looks great, pushes so smoothly, and most important my baby LOVES to ride in it. The feature I love the best is the large canopy. It completely covers the baby.
Cons
  • There are no cons as of yet

We replaced our Philand Ted's Dash and Bumbleride Flite with the Citymini GT. We get the same mobility of the dash with the GT's big rugged wheels and the compact lightweight benefits of the Flite. I think the GT has better steering than both and is much easier on for me, height-wise. I'm 6'0" and umbrella strollers are often too short.
Pros
  • Folds up so small!
Best Uses
  • City living and easy trail walking
Cons
  • Basket opening is smallish, so while contents stay put they are difficult to get in and out

We are so happy with the City Mini GT. We live in Boston and walk everywhere, so we needed sturdy wheels. I love that we can bump the stroller down the stairs rather than lifting it, and my baby loves looking all around. Small basket underneath, but that's similar to most strollers of this type. I had been deciding between this and the BOB, and I'm so glad I went with the GT. I can leave it open in our small condo entryway, while I'm sure the BOB would have been too big. And we put this in the trunk when we're going to museums, etc., which we couldn't have done wth the BOB either. Love it!
Pros
  • Strong, sturdy tires
  • comfortable seat
  • big canopy
  • easy fold/unfold
  • lightweight for in & out of trunk
  • adjustable handle
Cons
  • small basket
  • doesn't sit 100% upright

Best stroller of all
December 10, 2013
i am enjoying every minute with this stroller. Not to mention it is very flashy and stylish, but it is also very convenient and weather proof. Love the full range canopy. I have done my extensive research before purchasing this stroller and by far this is the best out there for outgoing sporty people that like to travel. The only downside is that it doesnt come with a car seat. I surely hope that one day city mini will have a carseat in city collection to pair it with.
Pros
  • light weight
  • small rubber airless wheels
  • easy fold mechanism
  • multiple accessories
  • stylish look
  • sturdy
  • hand break
  • entire stroller fabric comes off and can be washed
  • wheels come off with a push of 1button and can
Cons
  • lack of its own carseat

Baby shower gift
November 2, 2013
My sister in law registered for this stroller, in a different color, for her baby shower. I found this color for $100 less on your site and bought it for her. She was thrilled with the color and likes it better than her original choice. She got a great baby shower gift that someone may not have purchased for her because of the price. Thanks for offering great deals! I've purchased my three daughters' carseats and high back boosters from you and have saved a lot of money. I always come to you for the best deals on high priced items.

I could not be happier with the stroller. It is so easy to push and so easy to fold. The only thing I don't love is not having somewhere up top to put stuff or hooks for my purse, but that was easily remedied with the jeep stroller Hooks and A little thing that Velcros onto the handle to hold drinks and stuff.

Love this stroller! Only bad thing is there is no cup holder and the basket underneath is pretty small. Doesn't hold a regular size diaper bag. However, I still really like this one. It's lighter than a jogging stroller and you can steer with one hand.

Really liked this stroller when compared to the regular city mini but couldn't justify paying $100 more just for the nicer tires and adjustable handlebar. Love that this specific color was on sale - it looked ok online but actually I really like it.
Pros
  • the seat is more padded than the regular city mini
  • the tires are MUCH better
Best Uses
  • I just took it to the state fair and it rode so nicely through the grass and gravel!
Cons
  • While the stroller says it has a higer seat back (and it does) the shade sits differently on this stroller than the regular city mini and hits the head of my 4 year old. I purchased this stroller for my 9 month old so it's not an issue for me

  • Excellent quality.

came quickly, easy to put together. only stroller that we've found that adequately fits a big toddler; easy to fold with one hand. wish we had discovered sooner. just took it to disney world, and most of the rental strollers where city mini!love being able to push it one handed, very happy with stroller!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Pros
  • swivel front wheel
  • fits large toddlers
  • sun roof comes off
  • folds with one hand
  • easy to maneuver with one hand (could push my luggage through the airport with the other one)
Cons
  • it is heavy, (but really are there many strollers out there on the market that fit a 45 lb toddler, the answer is no), and I can deal with the weight.

I love this stroller for my five month old. It's smooth and handles all types of terrain. The one touch pull to fold is great. Don't get me wrong it's heavy compared to the snap and go, but it rides much better for my little guy.
Cons
  • The only thing I don't like is how small the basket underneath is and that it doesn't come with parts you need: adult console and kid tray.

BUY THIS ONE-YOU WON'T REGRET IT!!!
September 25, 2013
This is an amazing stroller and so easy to fold and all the features they added to this make it perfect, if you are trying to decide between the Mini and the GT, and you can afford it, go with the GT. The best part (and I did not see this in any other reviews) is that it has a solid, well padded seat, unlike the reg. Mini that has a soft "umbrella stroller seat". You CANNOT find a better deal ANYWHERE, thanks Albee Baby!!
Pros
  • padded, firm seat
  • easy to fold
  • easy to carry
  • easy access to basket
Best Uses
  • rough terrain
  • city
  • shopping
  • walks

Best Stroller Out There!
September 21, 2013
This stoller is the best stroller I have come across. The stollers out there with eight plastic wheels are heavy, clunky, hard to push on different surfaces, and still big when you fold them down. This stroller is lightweight, easy to push, folds down VERY easy (one person can be holding the baby and fold it down and put it in the trunk!), great wheels, and has every feature a parent would need! Absolutely worth every penny!

This was a great purchase and even better price. My stroller came within the week and we love it! Definitely will shop with Albeebaby.com in the future!
Pros
  • Easy to push, it glides so well that it feels like I'm pushing a feather.
  • The canopy is so big, I even went walking with a friend in the rain and my baby slept the entire time and didn't even get wet!
Best Uses
  • Everyday walking/exercising, parks, stores, it's super easy to push and maneuver!
Cons
  • The tray and cup caddy are sold separate.

After much research my wife and I decided we wanted the City Mini GT for our first baby's stroller. I'm always on the look out for a 'deal,' however it is difficult to find a good price on this item as it seems to maintain is ~350 list price no matter. When I found that Albee had the stroller for ~280 I was ecstatic. We were hesitant about the Bamboo color, however in person we love it. What an awesome deal on an excellent product! The stroller is so smooth and maneuverable and very sturdy. The other day we were taking baby for a checkup, and another mother asked us what kind of stroller we had b/c "it looks like the Mercedes Benz of strollers" she said. If only she knew how great of a deal we got from Albee, but alas I didn't have time to share this with her as it was in passing.The City Mini GT provides us with super-easy one-handed fold up (just grab the handle and pull up,) in addition to easy fold - out. We also love the accessories available for this stroller and have added the parent console as well as the cooler bag. Definitely get this stroller!

August 13, 2013
Our baby is 7 weeks old and her first stroller was a hand me down Baby Trend Snap n Go which was great in that it is easy and we were able to wheel her out of the hospital in it, but we also quickly realized that we wanted something with better wheels that is easier to push and go for long walks in. The Snap n Go is good for short trips but harder to steer and you need two hands to push (even though it is lighter). A few people recommended the City Mini and I also read great reviews for it, but I wanted something with bigger wheels that would make long walks even nicer. We knew we didn't need a jogging stroller so the CM GT has been a perfect compromise. It is heavier than the City Mini but the trade off was worth it to us to get the bigger wheels, adjustable handlebar and higher weight capacity. The stroller feels very well built. We bought the car seat adaptor and are currently using it with our Chicco Keyfit 30 car seat with no problems. I've done speed walking and very light jogging (even tho jogging is technically not recommended) with it and we've enjoyed it as has our baby. I would recommend trying out this stroller in a store to see if you mind the extra weight (vs the City Mini). If not, it really is the perfect stroller and we rarely use the Snap n Go now that we have this one.
Customer Images
Pros
  • smooth ride, easy to push, adjustable handlebar, baby higher up (easier to see/check on) when using car seat adaptor
Best Uses
  • long walks, uneven sidewalks, going over grass, etc at the park
Cons
  • slightly heavier than the regular City Mini

I love everything about this stroller but one thing (which is the reason for 4 vs. 5 stars). The ease of opening and closing the stroller is simple, and can be done while holding my 1 year old. Seat size is great. My only complaint is the height of the pull-down cover. It's a bit of a tight fit, and my son is not particularly tall. I assume once he's older, we will just take it off, as he won't fit in it without his head touching the top.

We loved the stroller ! Its sturdy, light weight and has the smallest forever air tires in the market. Its the best all terrains stroller but it doesnt allow jogging. Albee Baby offers the best price and did not charge shippment.
Pros
  • Light weight
  • Easy folding
  • Small rubber forever air tire
  • Removable tires
Best Uses
  • All terrains
  • Fits easy in the car
  • Great for flights
Cons
  • Color could be more atractive
  • Expensive acessories
  • Requires a car seat adaptor
  • It would allow jogging in a case of an air tire. They have this version but with bigger tires

I wish I had bought this stroller before I bought two other jogging strollers with my first two kids. I finally splurged for this and am glad I did. I don't run marathons but I do power walk and occasionally jog with it in our neighborhood which has rough terrain. It pushes like a dream. The fold is so easy and its very compact. Love this stroller!

Ordered the same stroller from Amazon, who said it would take 4 weeks for delivery. On the last day of the fourth week, the order was cancelled. This was for a baby gift, and now no baby gift. So, I went back to the internet, found, AllbeeBaby, ordered the stroller for the same price that Amazon had originally offered but couldn't fulfill, and the stroller was delivered in less than one week.

My most used stroller
July 31, 2013
I'm a foster parent and in the past 7 years have used 6 different strollers. (Chico Cortina, Inglesina Trip, Graco Quatrro, Bob Revolution, Baby Trend double, City Mini GT double). Can list the problems of every single one of them but for this stage in my 3 year olds life the City Mini GT single is as good as I've found. For me, the selling points are the small fold, it's ability to accommodate my 40" tall child and the tall handle (I'm 6 feet tall). What stops it from begin perfect is the small under basket, lack of drink holder (seriously?!?), and inconvenient feeding tray. If I hadn't used the Graco for the first 2 years of his life I may never have known how much is missing from it is but unfortunately I did. The Graco was glorious. This one is gloriously small. The only reason I don't still use the Graco is because it takes up too much room in my trunk - I still love it and now that it's been discontinued may never sell it.
Pros
  • crazy-easy fold, tall adjustable handle, maneuverability
Best Uses
  • Traveling light
Cons
  • small under basket, no "parent console" or drink holder

I love this stroller! I have had a few of the best, like Peg Perego and McClaren, but I love this one because you can push it one handed, it folds flat, unlike the BOB, and even though my 4 year old is 42 lbs, he will still fit up to 65 lbs and it still pushes as smooth as silk!
Pros
  • Easy to push, folds flat, holds up to 65 lbs.
Best Uses
  • Walking, traveling, theme parks
Cons
  • A bit bulky/ heavy

I love this stroller! It is lighter than the city elite, and much better than a city mini.The tires are great, the handlebar is great, the best!The only thing I don't like is that the windows open with velcro- not magnets like the elite. Also- the frame broke recently. But that might be because I live in an apartment building and need to bring it up and down stairs. I can't wait for my replacement to come because I miss my stroller. Enjoy your stroller!
Pros
  • Light (relatively,) air wheels, straigt handlebar, and more
Cons
  • velcro windows
