0.049 -> So today we're going to show you a comparison
of the ever so popular Baby Jogger City Select,
4.75 -> and the brand new City Select Lux, and we're
gonna show you all those fun upgrades.
7.97 -> We're gonna start with fabric, that's the
most noticeable.
11.38 -> On your classic City Select, it's gonna be
more of a silky, nylon; you have your bold
16.49 -> colors and your two frame color options between
silver and black.
21.22 -> Awesome canopy, as usual with Baby Jogger.
24.189 -> And then with the Lux, you have these nice,
softer heathered fabrics- you only have five
28.48 -> color options and they're all beautiful, but
you only have the black frame option.
33.76 -> So I do like the upgraded fabric on the Lux.
37.54 -> Next, they did make some upgrades on the handlebars.
43.07 -> So they changed the shape just a little bit.
46.379 -> So on the classic City Select, you have the
round handlebar, and then you have your handbrake
50.649 -> here, which you just pull up and then flip
down, which is great!
54.309 -> Sandal friendly.
55.859 -> Now on the Lux, it's a little bit higher,
you do have kind of a square shape to it,
60.76 -> but they added a decelerator, so if you're
going downhill, this is gonna slow you down
65.3 -> slowly.
66.75 -> But then you can also put on the parking brake
like that, and then take it off like that,
71.12 -> so that was a nice addition as well.
74.1 -> Then they also changed how that second seat
is going to attach to the front.
85.04 -> So on the classic City Select, you're gonna
push this button on the side, and you're gonna
89.32 -> release it like this.
90.88 -> Now when it's in single mode, you have a little
plate right here to cover it, so it doesn't
94.33 -> look like you're missing a piece, which is
great.
97.16 -> But I like the improvement that they did on
the Lux.
100.17 -> So it just has a little trap door so it stays
nice and clean, and then when you put on your
103.82 -> second seat adaptors, you just push them in,
so that was super easy.
107.85 -> I want to mention that these are additional
accessories, the second seat does not come
112.2 -> with the purchase of your stroller.
116.63 -> Now the other features of the seat are the
same.
119.02 -> They both have a forty-five pound weight capacity,
and you can start putting your baby in at
123.38 -> six months or older.
125.56 -> Now the canopy, you can still adjust that
as well, so the main functions of the seat
131.73 -> are the same as the City Select.
135.18 -> Okay, now let's get into the fold.
138.83 -> So the fold mechanism on both strollers is
the same.
142 -> And technically, you can fold both strollers
with the second seat attached, but I'm gonna
147.99 -> show you how big they are when you do so.
149.371 -> So the fold mechanism is going to be on both
sides, you're just gonna pull up on the fold
153.06 -> handle, and as you can see, the City Select
is gonna stick a little bit, but you can do
160.23 -> it.
161.23 -> And then you have your manual lock on the
side to lock it into place.
167.9 -> But as you can see, it's quite bulky when
folded.
172.75 -> Okay, now with the Lux, they did solve some
of those problems, but I do have to mention,
177.62 -> you have to take off the front seat in order
to fold the main seat to get the smallest
183.77 -> fold.
184.77 -> And then you can replace that front seat again.
189.75 -> And then to fold, you'll pull up on those
same handles - it is a little bit more difficult,
195.89 -> push down with your thumbs and pull up at
the same time.
199.959 -> And it does have an automatic lock.
204.68 -> As you can see, it's a little bit more compact
with more space in between.
208.65 -> If you want to see the full compact fold,
we can show you that without the use of the
218.09 -> second seat.
220.54 -> So as you can see, side by side, it is a smaller,
more compact fold.
227.959 -> So some of those smaller upgrades are gonna
be the wheels.
233.83 -> And as you can see, they're about the same
size.
236.73 -> On your City Select, you are gonna have foam-filled,
no air tires, which is great.
241.89 -> And then on the Lux, you're gonna have all
rubber, slimmer tires.
245.31 -> However, on the City Select, it does offer
a little bit more suspension, it's gonna absorb
250.12 -> energy a little bit better because they are
foam-filled.
253.209 -> But I like the sleek look of the ones on the
Lux.
257.04 -> Okay, now let's get into storage.
260.87 -> So both of them do feature a large storage
basket underneath.
264.86 -> So they both have this elastic - on the City
Select, you do have a side zipper that keeps
271.46 -> it down, then you can use the elastic.
273.5 -> The Lux, they felt like it wasn't necessary,
so they took away the zipper, but it is still
276.979 -> very "elasticy" so that you can get a bag
in there.
280.55 -> Now also on the Lux, they feature a zippered
pocket on the back of the seats for like a
286.129 -> cell phone - something small could fit in
there.
291.819 -> Now these upgrades do come at a price - not
just financially but in terms of weight.
296.88 -> So the City Select weighs in at twenty nine
- just over twenty nine and a half, and that
301.86 -> does include the one seat.
304.13 -> The Lux weighs in at just over thirty one
and a half, and that also comes with the seat,
309.289 -> so it's less than a two pound difference!
311.43 -> Not a big deal.
315.419 -> Now I wanna get into my favorite improvements
of the Lux, which is actually the accessories
319.9 -> that they added to the line.
321.46 -> So now, instead of the second seat adaptors
being just for a second seat, you can get
326.24 -> the addition of a shopping tote.
329.189 -> And I do love that because it increases the
usability when you just have your first child,
333.43 -> so you can still use those second seat adaptors.
335.9 -> It does have a messenger strap, and then you
can button it closed, so you can carry it
340.889 -> around when you're on the go.
342.309 -> The nice thing is this is one of the accessories
that you can actually use on your old City
352.889 -> Select, so if you wanna add this, you can
go ahead and get this accessory if you already
357.21 -> have a City Select.
358.68 -> Now my favorite accessory is actually the
bench seat.
361.02 -> So if you have an older child that doesn't
want to sit in the seat anymore, they can
364.36 -> sit here when your toddler is sitting here
- this you can do forward- or rear-facing.
368.229 -> Now the bench seat does have a sixty five
pound weight capacity and it comes with a
373.18 -> foot plate for them to rest their feet.
374.919 -> It's not designed to stand on, but the seat
does have sixty five pounds.
379.11 -> Another accessory that they added to the line
is a cup holder.
384.759 -> Now this you'll actually just slide into a
peg right here and it is actually compatible
390.229 -> on both sides.
391.639 -> Now it does fit - it does fit a larger bottle.
397.319 -> It does have a sleek look, it has the leather
panels and stretchy elastic sides so it does
403.441 -> look really nice.
404.879 -> Now I do need to mention that the cup holder
and the bench seat are only compatible on
408.68 -> the Lux - you cannot use those on your City
Select.
412.389 -> But if you already have the City Select, and
you want these sleek new seats, you can buy
416.83 -> the Lux seats and put those on an old City
Select frame.
428.659 -> Now all other accessories are actually compatible
with both strollers, and that does include
433.389 -> carseat adaptors.
434.849 -> The carseat brands that are compatible are
Baby Jogger, Britax Bob, Chicco, Cybex, Graco,
440.02 -> Maxi Cosi, Nuna, and Peg-perego.
442.159 -> Now in case you missed one, here it is again.
445.249 -> *Gibberish and crazy stuff* I'm just teasing!
450.3 -> If you have any questions about compatibility
or which carseats are compatible, just shoot
455.619 -> us a question, you can leave comments below
or send us an email at [email protected].
459.439 -> We're more than happy to help you find the
right combination for you.
466.21 -> Now care instructions on both strollers is
the same.
469.08 -> You can remove the soft goods, they are machine
washable on a gentle cycle in cold water,
473.589 -> and then throw them back on your stroller
to dry.
478.449 -> Now as I mentioned before, the Lux is a little
bit more expensive.
482.15 -> The classic City Select retails for $529,
and the Lux retails for $629.
487.509 -> You can purchase both of those on our website,
babycubby.com.
491.319 -> If this video was helpful, please give us

496.059 -> Over there we do more reviews and how-tos

504.339 -> when buying baby products.
