Does anyone have the Baby Jogger City Select and use it for 2 kids?

I tried this stroller out today and like it because it seems easy to fold and carry around as far as double strollers go. The only thing I noticed is that DS had limited leg room (meaning kind of tight) and I am worried he is going to kick the seat in front of him. I can put him on the outside which will help that, but just wondered if this was an issue for anyone else. I even looked at some other configurations and found the leg room was the same. Also, I noticed there isn't much head room, but maybe the seat needed to be reclined some.

Anyway, would love to hear from anyone who uses this stroller as a double today or in the past. Thanks a bunch!

We use it and I love it. I have my older in then front and she is just fine.
My favorite thing about the stroller is that the kids can face each other, face out, face me - so many options. This eliminates the kicking in my opinion, all you have to do is quicku switch the seats.
Also, almost every other double stroller you will find requires that the older/bigger kid is in the back (closer to you) and to me this is just a set up for my older kid being bored and kicking their sibling

I have it. If I had it to do over again I would get the City Mini Double. I loved the configurations of the select and that it was narrower. Well, the only place we take it is where the narrowness isn't a big issue and I would prefer to have something easier to fold and the fact that the mini reclines almost flat and you can change diapers there. And yes, when the kids get older, someone is going to get kicked.

My cousin loves hers! Uses it for everything and everywhere! I'm borrowing it this week for our vacation with friends (don't want to have to push two strollers if we don't have to). I wish i wouldve gotten that from the start and not just the single.

I have it and use it as double and single. The leg room is not ideal, but doesn't seem like a problem for them. I mentioned to the sales guy that they would kick each other, and he said with the side by side, they would elbow and grab at each other. So really, with a double, there will always be some issue with them being close to each other. I LOVE this stroller, btw. My only complaint is that it's heavy to heave into the car.

I have the city select and use it as a double. When DD#2 started kicking the seat in front of her we just switched the seats around. DD#2 sits in the front now. No issues. I love having a double stroller and wouldn't change a thing.
