I want and need a stroller bag, but the baby jogger city select bag is around $80. When I found this bag on sale for $25, I took it out in the store and was suprised to see my CITY SELECT stroller fit in perfectly, and with room to spare. It will easily fit the stroller, and the two seats, and stroller accessories. I needed to take one wheel, but that isn't a big deal. they easily snap on and off, and i actually prefer that to protect them more. A little heavy to carry with shoulder strap, but not so bad with handles. No big deal to put it on a luggage cart. Awesome way to protect my $$$$ stroller.

Given that the official BOB stroller bag is well over $100, and that this bag says it compatible with the BOB, I thought I'd give it a shot. Big mistake. While the bag is quite large, it is not large enough to fit a BOB unless you take all three wheels off. And once in the bag, I had no doubt that in that state our BOB would not survive a single flight.
It should be noted that the bag is simply a very large duffle bag. From the picture I assumed it had either some light padding or at some structural elements (e.g. rigid corners/edges) to help it hold its shape. Alas no, so the bag offers just slightly more protection than double bagging in heavy duty garbage bags (i.e. protect the contents from grime and abrasion). While that would be more than okay for our umbrella stroller or snap-n-go (which have a lot more plastic), given the important bits that stick out of a folded BOB (especially the flat metal shock brackets and front fork) I would be more surprised than not if a BOB didn't end up damaged during transport.
That said, it is a well made, gigantic duffle bag and I'm sure I'll find a use for it. But not, alas, for the purpose for which I purchased it.

Bought this for our City Mini Baby Jogger stroller and it worked perfectly for it! Fit no problem even with the wheels on it there was even extra room. We did not check it only gate checked it and it worked great for us!
Honest reviews on J.L. Childress Standard & Dual Stroller Travel Bag
We bought this to bring our own Baby Jogger City Mini Double stroller with us to Disneyland. I saw that the bag by Baby Jogger cost 4x as much, so decided to give this bag a try. The bag seemed well made and sturdy. I also liked that it has both the short handles and a long shoulder strap. Also has a small clear window with name tag. The stroller fits with the front wheels removed, which is super quick. The shape of the bag is more of a rectangle and our folded stroller is more of a square (hope this makes sense!) but it fit. Because the bag was long, there was plenty of extra room on the side to put the removed wheels and couple of jackets and blankies. I practically dragged it on the ground to gate check it and the bag was very strong. Even though it is not a padded bag, the heavy canvas material provides protection & contained the stroller well. Both the bag and the stroller made the trip with no damage whatsoever. Very happy with this bag and will use it again if we need to fly with our stroller. Two thumbs up!

First let me say that I have the Britax B-Ready 2011 model stroller. I am about to take a trip across the country from California to Pennsylvania (next month May 2013) and figured I paid plenty of money for my stroller and love it, why should I purchase a cheaper stroller to travel? After reading all the reviews I went out on a limb and decided that it was worth a shot and I have plenty of time to return and start the process over again if it did not work. I am very happy to tell you that the B-Ready fits!!!! You do need to remove one wheel and wheel guard which honestly is super easy and should not be an issue at the gate. The bag is a little on the thin side but hopefully will hold up on the trip, there should not be too much as I am flying a straight shot so no bags in and out.....I will update in June when I get back and let you know how the bag held up. But for now it is exactly what I am looking for.
