City Micro vs City Mini

I saw that Target has the Micro for $50 so I was going to have my sister pick me up one at the Target by her, but I was wondering what the difference in the two is? Does the adapter you can get to use a car seat with it work with the Micro too or just the Mini? Anyone have the Micro and love it?

I have the Micro from Target. It does take the car seat adapter. This version of the Micro has the large sun shade of the Mini (prior versions did not) and it also have the larger back wheels. We LOVE it. I would definitely recommend it.

Thank you! That makes me feel better. I can't see it for myself since she is picking it up for me, so I was trying to read reviews online. I saw that people were saying the sun shade was really small, so I'm glad to hear the target one as the large sun shade. I'm definitely going to have her pick one up.

Glad I could help! We seriously love it. The sun shade is AMAZING. And the easy one hand fold has been a life saver with a toddler.

I saw this deal a couple of weeks ago and bought one.  I called Baby jogger and asked a few questions.  1. it does take all of the same adapters as the mini.    2. It was re-released in 2012 at Target stores only and  they are discontinuing  it so replacement parts will be limited.  

I like it so far and with that big of savings I don't think you can go wrong.  The 2012 mini is $250.

I'm pretty sure it takes all the same accessories as the city mini. If I can find one for 50 I plan to get one for when we travel. I believe Target had them in 2 different colors.

Target online has the Micro for $199. The rain canopy is $50.

Where did you see it for only $50? Sounds like an awesome deal!

Yep, I scored one for $50 in store this morning. I have been watching them get marked down for at least 3 weeks now.

I wish I could find this deal, even at the $99 price.  I checked 5 different targets in my area, and found no evidence that any of them had ever carried them.  :(

Did you ask them to check the DPCI# for you ? That was the only way I was able to find them at my Target because they never had it on display and the website says online only. The DCPI for this stroller is: 030-09-0658 I hope this helps, at my local Target they had just arrived yesterday and were showing as a online packaging item they had 6 of them priced at $99.98 which makes me think that they are not only returned items from online but that the inventory is being shipped out to the stores to get them sold... I will be watching my local Target to score it when it goes down to 75% off. Good luck

I snagged a grey micro tonight at my local Target and a 20 % off coupon popped out! Associate who happened to be a manager used it for me right away and I got another 10 bucks off !  So I got it for 40$.

My Target had the stroller a few months ago, but they were nowhere to be seen today.

Crap.  I just spend the evening checking all my local target stores (or rather asking them to dbl check stock) and turned up empty handed!  Enjoy your discounted strollers ladies!  I think you got the last of them.

Mine had quite a few left, but they were "salvaged" a couple weeks ago. Which basically means they were send to goodwill already. Someone I know saw one at a Goodwill close to her, and they were market at $150 or something like that.
