Baby Jogger City Versa Questions & Answers

It's not a pram you can take on board. It's heavy and way over the travel pram measurements and weights. You'd have to check it as underneath luggage. But as a pram to travel with, it's sturdy, large basket and folds in half with the seat facing either way and a dream to push.

I'd try Gumtree or your local Facebook marketplace. I did not use a bassinet with my versa but it looks like the bassinet is universal and then you'd need adapters to suit the versa. There's some versa adapters on gumtree now that would be cheap to post but the bassinet maybe harder to find. Good luck. It's an amazing pram. I sold mine and regret it

Yes the compact bassinet definitely does, you would just need to find the adapters to fit the Versa. The deluxe bassinet , I am pretty sure can be used on the Versa too. .

Thank you so much, I will check that out. Cheers Sally

Hi Sally, thank you for your enquiry. Unfortunately no other bassinets have been safety tested to be used on the City Versa pram, so the only bassinet we can recommend using on the City Versa stroller is the City Versa bassinet. Which has been sold out and discontinued.

I apologies for any inconvenience. Please let us know if you have any further questions.

Kind regards,

Hi, I'm not sure with the latest models but with mine, bought in 2013, it's not. The versa seat is bigger. Give Baby jogger a call, they're in Melbourne and very helpful.

Hi, I have a City Versa bassinet that i bought with the pram. i'm in sydney if you want to buy. In very god condition.

Just locks the back wheels! :)

Back wheels only, but actually helps to adjust prams position with front two wheels after locking. eg if you have locked prior to boarding the car and it is not convenient to handle bub, you can easily lift backend of the pram and adjust the position without much of a struggle. i.e act like a trolley while repositioning.

Back only. As far as I'm aware all prams brake with back wheels only.

Thanks everyone -

The compact versa bass or the new delux universal bass fits it

It's definitely a tighter fit than I had on the city select but this is because the city select handle is extendable and the seat can be lowered allowing more room. I used to put dd within the handle perimeters not on the outside. I have noticed though that the versa handle is quite tall allowing some room (I'm not sure how this compares to the mini) but dd has to now stand on the outside of the handle and hold on where I hold on, so it is more difficult than with the city select. However I wouldn't use this for an entire day, only for 2-3 hrs at most and it's copable. If she really needs to not walk ( to sleep or for a long period) I'd put dd in the pram and my younger 1 yo in the carrier. I would suggest trying it out at a store first like baby bunting.

Hi Nicky, I have a very tall 4 year old, around 17-18 kilos and I found that out of the range of similar prams, she fitted most comfertably in the versa. It's very stable and durable. I would suggest going to baby buntjng etc and trying out prams with similar features and placing your older child in them as well as the versa. I picked the versa and it felt so much more stable and durable than the rest and I know baby jogger is a good brand :)

Thanks so much babytazzfor ur help

From owning this stroller I personally can see it being closer to 11.9kg (26 pounds). I found it quiet heavy to lift with just one hand after using the one handed fold method it has. I would have to brace my back before pulling the folding strap, plus found it kinda awkward to lift into the boot that way. If you are happy to deal with this down side, then the other great features of this stroller are well worth it. The steering is fantastic and the basket/canopy huge!

The baby jogger website has been updated with the 11 ish kg weight. :)

Depends if you are ejecting the seat before lifting. I'm pretty sure 9.5 is chassis and wheels

I have used just the toddler seat from birth and haven't had a problem. I thought it a waste of money to buy a bassinet seat for only a few month. My daughter has been fine in the regular seat, although she always likes being on a slight incline. Now 6 weeks old, we have had no problems. It is probably a good idea to get a head insert (although we just curled a muslin wrap around her head for support), if you feel your bub needs a little more support.

The reason they do not recommend the versa seat for newborns is because if the angle of the seat is not suitable to a newborns hip development. When you recline the seat, the angle of the seat stays the same. The best position for a newborn etc to be is lying flat such as the bassinet. Even companies do not recommend babies being in the capsules for a long time. I personally have always bought a bassinet with my prams and I also use them as a travel bed.

I would definitely recommend bassinet or alternately if you could somehow make a triangle wedge with foam or? You could create a flat bed surface. I have kind of done this for my 4 month old .. Using material to build up the surface. I don't think this pram would work at all for under4 months and even though it has loads of qualities I like .. It has enough issues that I'm thinking about selling mine and going back to my original mini jogger.
