I would love to do an in depth comparison of these 2 strollers as well! But it's hard to do since the Versa hasn't officially been released yet. The baskets on the Versa and the Cruz are similar in size. The Versa basket has higher sides so you might be able to stack more in the basket than in the Cruz. You would probably access the versa basket mainly from the rear. On the Cruz, because it doesn't have the higher sides that the versa has, you would be able to get in the basket from all angles. The handle on the versa is adjustable. It rotates upwards or downwards, where as the Cruz handlebar is telescoping. What other questions do you have? best, lauren Hi Debbie!

They can also give you guidance on how to remove the straps...but in general you'll do that from behind the seat. best, lauren Hi Jennifer,

I agree...i like the basket on the Cruz as it's much more open and accessible as compared to the CM. The Cruz is super easy to fold, even though it does take 2 hands. But that doesn't really bother me and for in and out of the car. The CMGT doesn't have better suspension than the CM, just better wheels that give it a nicer/smoother ride. I think you can go either way on this one...they're all great strollers that seem to meet your needs. If it were me, I might narrow it down to the Cruz and GT (GT over CM because I like the wheels a lot better). What other questions do you have? best, Lauren Hi Roy!

]]> Comment on Baby Jogger City Mini Stroller vs the New City Mini GT Stroller – what are their similarities and differences? by Lauren http://www.strollerguru.com/2011/11/07/baby-jogger-city-mini-stroller-vs-the-new-city-mini-gt-stroller-what-are-their-similarities-and-differences/#comment-1373 Lauren Tue, 15 May 2012 13:23:39 +0000 http://blog.wildchildgear.com/?p=2460#comment-1373 Hi Lauri! Both strollers are very comfortable and supportive for baby. So if you're priorities are stroller weight, maneuverability, and ease of folding then you should go with the City Mini or perhaps the Uppababy Cruz. The City mini is lighter than the Vista (17lbs vs 25lbs), it folds with one hand, and 3 wheel strollers often feel easier to maneuver than 4 wheel strollers. Also check out the Uppababy Cruz, as it's a lighter, easier to fold version of the Vista. What other questions do you have?? We carry all of the strollers mentioned! :-) best, Lauren Hi Lauri!

I have 5 children, three that take turns in the stroller. An easy harness adjustment is essentially when out and about for me. It may be a wash for a family with one child, or an older and very young child, but it certainly isn't for a family with multiple small children.

I am most concerned with baby's comfort/support, stroller weight, maneuverability, and ease of collapsing. Which stroller do you recommend or is there any other I should consider? Our baby is due in Zhuly. :). Thanks for your advice! Hi Lauren – I’m a first time mom and trying to decide between Uppa baby vista and the City mini jogger.

I really like the compact fold and lightweightness of the CM, but I wish it had a larger storage area. Also, I like how you can switch the seat on the Cruz to be rear facing. I am really torn. Most of the time I will be using the stroller in town on shopping trips. In and out a lot, so simplicity in packing it in the car is important. What do you think? Also, does the CMGT have better suspension than the CM, or is it just the better tires that give it a better ride? Thank you I am comparing the the CM and the UppaBaby Cruz.
