Success after IF

City mini GT or Bumbleride Indie Twin?

I have it down to 2 and can't decide!
Cost isn't a factor cause the 2012 bumblerides are on sale so there's not much difference.
Opinions?

Re: City mini GT or Bumbleride Indie Twin?

  • While I think the features and look of the Indie Twin are really nice, we went with the BJCM GT. In the end, it came down to how easy it is to collapse and cram into my trunk. The CM GT folds down with a quick pull to the straps in the seats. It just seemed a lot easier than the Indie Twin. I am very pleased with my BJCM, although, of course, I wish it was lighter. But, I dont know that any double stroller's weight would please me. And, the accessories are ridiculously expensive. I don't know how the Bumbleride accessories work.

    It's funny cause everyone says how easy it is to fold yet I go to two stores and can't fold it. My mom couldn't either. The guy at the store says its cause its a floor model and has taken a lot of abuse. So now I wonder if over time it gets hard to fold the bjcm?

  • I know this is a ridiculous question, but did the sales guy undo the red straps under the seat? I only ask because it took me a full day to realize I hadn't unbuttoned them. I thought I had pulled my uterus with all the pulling and yanking only to have DH come home, undo the straps, and pull it right up. I've actually found it gets easier with time.

  • Oh he could fold it... The First Lady helping me couldn't either though. I found a good deal on one now and might buy it and hope I get it down

  • So weird. I promise- it does fold up!! The women on the Multiples board always rave about it and I've never heard of it getting so worn down. Makes me nervous. But, I suppose those floor models take all kinds of cr*p. Hope it works for you!
