I've seen that lots of people like the City Mini but it seems much more expensive than strollers of a similar specification.

What's so good about it?

it's sturdy and pushes well and definitely a reasonable price point.

It's very lightweight but solid and sturdy at the same time. I like it better than my more expensive carriage.

Very lightweight but sturdy. Also has higher weight capacity than other strollers I was considering (65 lbs) so you can use it for longer amount of time.
I love how easily it pushes.

Frankly, I don't like it. I didn't find it that easy to push especially on uneven ground, and it was very flimsy. It flipped over twice with my baby in it! Bh she was ok but it was terrifying.

Do those of you that have it find that the seat bottom sags after a while? I see that often on other people's. I also have a friend whose citi mini tipped over backwards.

I didn't like the non-adjustable handlebar, it made it difficult for me to push uphill.
The stability is better on the four wheeled version. The GT has an adjustable handle.
It folds really compact, something my mountain buggy does NOT do.
It's easy to recline too.

I like the non adjustable handle..I bounce down subway stairs. It folds easily doesn't take much room on the bus. My heavier child likes to sit in it

I have the 2014 gt double and 2016 gt single.
The tires make the push extremely easy- I've owned 3 strollers before these.
The adjustable handle is also great for when my daughter wants to push.
The hoods are large and cover a lot.
I can take my double out of the car while holding my 1 year old because it's relatively light.
I like that it has a lock and folds pretty flat.

Mine is the gt, so the adjustable handle is good. Personally I find the basket hard to access and mine always gets stuck trying to open it.

Canopy size. Very few strollers offer the same amount of coverage and most that do are much more $

I have a 2016 GT. Pushes easily on grass and muddy paths — we have many shortcuts through yards and woods around here. Relatively lightweight and folds up small. Easily adjustable handle.

This a back-heavy stroller, which is actually one of the reasons I bought it. This quality makes it easier to go up curbs. But it's something to be aware of, and if you like to hang your stroller bag on the handles, the stroller will be extremely prone to tipping backwards.

Did you have the three wheel or four wheel?

I have the Britax B-Agile Double. It looks just like the City Mini version everyone has in Israel and seems to work just as well. Much cheaper and I'm not sure why I'm the only one I've seen with it.
