City Mini Double 2011 vs 2012

I'm in need of a double stroller and think the city mini is the one I want.  Is it worth the extra $$ to get the 2012 or is the 2011 still a good one?  I'm torn.  DH about lost it when I told him how much the 2012 was.  But I'll be using this for several years...

  • I just saw this youtube video comparing the two. IMO, the upgrades are not worth the price. I would get a 2011.

  • A year ago I was in a similar position deciding between the 2010 and 2011.  I decided the savings were worth missing a few upgrades and I went with the 2010 model.  I have never regretted my decision. It is such a great stroller that I don't think you can go wrong.

  • I was in the same boat until yesterday.  I decided that for the price....the upgrades in the 2012 weren't worth it to me.  I ordered the city mini double 2011 model on amazon last night for $369.  With all of the extras that I want (car seat adapter, parent console, kid bar or tray, etc,)  I wanted to save a little money.  I am disappointed that you can't get to the basket under the seats very easy but I'll live.
