BJCS VS. Britax b-ready

nickcrazy16 · November 2010

Torn between the 2... I love the fact they they  both convert to a double stroller later on. The upside that i found with the b-ready is that both seats can recline wihen used as a double vs. the BJ which doesnt seem to be able to. Other than that, Id love to hear everyones opinions. TIA

Find a store that carries them and try pushing them both. I found that I kicked the rear seat of the b-ready without it even being reclined. It would be difficult to use the rear seat in a reclined position and still be able to push the stroller.

What I did not like about the Britax B-Ready was this exactly...the seat looked so awkward down there and hard to reach the storage compartment.

You really do need to see both IMO...

I did not like the BReady, but know of one person on here that has exchanged their CS for the BReady

I thought the B-Ready was HUGE compared to the CS. I did like how the BReady handle was more adjustable, but that was it for me. I much prefer the seating options, size and performance of the CS.

GL!

We have the city select and love it! Yes, you can recline both seats as long as they are facing you. Facing outward it will not work.

Yup, I returned my CS for the B-Ready. I'm VERY happy with it! I have a FB album of pictures if you wanna check them out. Since I made the album, I've gotten the lower carseat adapter which lets you put both the carseat and the bassinet (although Britax does not advertise that) in the lower position. I hated the CS...it was way too long as a double and I didn't feel the carseat was that stable in it. I do disagree about accessing the basket...the back (where the child sits)...is completely open...then all 3 other sides have zippers to access

That stroller makes me claustrophobic just looking at that bottom seat. Seeing those photos makes me really glad I got the BJ City Select. I love the stadium seating the BJ offers.

I LOVE my B-Ready and personally did not like the CS. I would try to find a store where you can use them both. When I was purchasing my LO was about 7 mths old and I found a couple at the store looking at strollers and they let me use their 3 yr old. I hated the CS because the seats are so much shorter than the B-Ready and the way it handled when trying to push it. Very front heavy also. I LOVE the basket on the B-Ready along with the seat, the way the baby fits/sits and the handle of the stroller. This is actually our 3rd stroller. I started with a Britax Chaperone, then the City Mini and by far love the B-Ready. I am willing to answer any questions I can.
