Our Take

The City Sights is Baby Jogger's compact everyday four-wheeler: a 24.42 lb stroller with large all-terrain wheels, front-wheel suspension, a reversible reclining seat with adjustable calf support, a UV 50+ canopy with a ventilation panel, and a one-hand fold. It rolls well — independent hands-on testing rewarded its maneuverability and build quality, and owners rate it 4.0 out of 5 across roughly 60 Amazon ratings.

The mechanism is the practical cost. The fold is a somewhat hidden two-step pinch trigger rather than a grab-and-fold buckle, and the folded stroller will not stand on its own, so plan where you will park it. Newborn rides follow the owner's manual's direction to use the most-reclined seat position, while the more modular routes — infant car seat, pram and glider board — are separate purchases, with car-seat adapters sold separately as well.

It is not intended for jogging, carries one child to 50 lb and 40 in, and shares a 66 lb total load with the 15 lb basket.

What we like

  • Lightweight 24.42 lb frame with a one-hand fold and a published folded size (30 x 59 x 80 cm on the official New Zealand page for this colorway)
  • All-terrain wheels with front-wheel suspension and quick-release wheels for storage or transport
  • Reversible, reclining seat with adjustable calf support and a large UV 50+ canopy with a zippered ventilation panel
  • Modular route to eight modes using the separately sold pram, infant car seat, and glider board

Worth knowing

  • The fold trigger is a somewhat hidden two-step pinch system, and the folded stroller does not self-stand
  • The manufacturer states the stroller is not intended for jogging, despite the all-terrain look
  • The manufacturer sources checked do not list a wheel diameter or seat dimensions
  • The infant car seat, pram, and glider board are separate purchases, so a full travel system costs more than the stroller alone

Best for

Caregivers who want a compact, lightweight four-wheel stroller that folds one-handed, rides from the newborn stage in the most-reclined position, and can grow into a travel system with separately sold pieces.

Consider another option if

You plan to run or jog with the stroller — the manufacturer says this one is not intended for jogging — or you want a US-market spec sheet that lists every dimension in inches, since the folded size here comes from the brand's metric New Zealand page.

Professional review findings

  • BabyGearLab: Scored 7.4/10 overall near the top of its full-size stroller test; maneuverability and build quality drew the strongest marks despite the smaller wheels, while ease of use sat below average: the fold is a somewhat hidden two-step pinch system with a pull bar under the seat, the folded stroller does not self-stand, and the harness buckles nest awkwardly.

Compatibility varies by car seat model. Always verify your exact car seat, stroller, and required adapter with the manufacturer before purchasing or using them. Infant car seats are sold separately unless otherwise specified.

Verify compatibility with Baby Jogger (opens manufacturer compatibility chart in a new tab)

Check before buying

  • Confirm the listing variation is the Dark Slate base stroller (no car seat in the box), and check your exact infant seat against the manufacturer's compatibility chart before planning a travel-system purchase, since adapters are sold separately.
  • Single-child stroller. The manufacturer's eight-mode claim is built with the glider board, pram, and infant car seat — all separate purchases — on top of the base stroller.

Helpful Questions

Can the City Sights be used from birth?
Yes, with a caveat the manual draws itself: for newborn babies it recommends always using the most-reclined seat position. The seat suits one child and, per the manual, does not replace a cot or bed; a sleeping child belongs in suitable sleep equipment. The pram and infant car seat routes exist but are separate purchases.
How does the stroller fold, and how small does it get?
The manufacturer describes a one-hand fold and publishes a folded size of 30 x 59 x 80 cm (about 11.8 x 23.2 x 31.5 in) for the Dark Slate colorway on its New Zealand store page; independent testers add that the trigger is a somewhat hidden two-step pinch system with a pull bar under the seat, and that the folded stroller does not stand upright on its own.
Which infant car seats fit the City Sights?
The manufacturer page says the stroller creates a travel system with most Baby Jogger, Graco, Maxi-Cosi, and Nuna infant car seats, with the matching adapters sold separately. Confirm your exact seat and adapter pair on Baby Jogger's published compatibility chart before buying.
Can I jog or run with it?
No. Despite the all-terrain wheels and suspension, the manufacturer states the City Sights is not intended for jogging. It is designed for walking surfaces, with a rear-wheel parking brake you lock before loading or unloading your child.
