Cruising!!!!
Love love love this accessory. I would totally recommend this accessory. We have the city select double but the guide board was perfect for when my daughter didn't want to sit but we needed walk. Her younger brother loved being able to hug her while she was standing on the board. Great at the amusement parks where a quick hop on the board can take you to be he became ride.

Triple stroller mode
It's easy to use and my son (4) loves his "skate board"

Convenient addition
Our friends had this when we went to Disney for their child. I was amazed how simple and helpful this addition was. My 2 year old loved it. It was like a "mini skateboard to her!" It is awkward for the parent pushing the stroller as far as reaching over the child, but I say totally worth it not to have to carry the 4 year old that is getting tired.

Nice to have
Bought this used off a friend and it is great for my toddler getting on/off the stroller during longer walks. I wish there was more room for him using the board on the city select and somewhere easier for him to hold on to. Well built and study, folds up easy.

Great add-on
So handy now that we tote three small kids. A little awkward for tall people like me. I have to extend my arms to walk without kicking it but it has saved our tired butts many times :)
Folds up nicely too for same easy storage

Not made for the mini double.
I saw reviews with it in use for the select and it looked great. With the double there is plenty of leg room so no bumping of legs and my 4 and 2 year old easily fit between the stroller and handle bar.
The downside is that it is not designed for the double. You cannot fold it up and it does not store well at all with it attached. They should have made some design adjustments for double.
While they are at it they should design it so that you can put two side by side or just one in the midde or one long one. Either way it should fold nicely.

Raise the handle so the older child has more room
I see a lot of people complaining about the older child being in the way, so felt compelled to share what I do. I use it with my city select, which has a telescoping handle. I just raise the handle and my almost 4 year old can easily stand on the board with his head between the stroller and the handle. I am 5 foot 3 and it is very easy for me to push without the board interfering with my stride. We walk just about everywhere, including to preschool twice a week, and it is a lifesaver!

Super awesome for some kids.
My daughter loves using the board but loses interest really easily. I find it to be a little in the way as well. I would never buy in the future again we didn't get much use out of it.

Awkward height
I don't like using the item with my daughter. She is 36" tall and the way the handle bar angles on our city mini gt, she really doesn't fit well behind the stroller. I'll try again when she is taller.

Love this!!
I got this a few months ago for my baby jogger stroller! It works perfect for my 3.5 year old! He loves that he can ride when he gets tired but can easily get off and not feel like he is confined in a stroller like little brother!!

Like but don't love
I'd been wanting this attachment for some time, and was excited to finally try it out. I like that it fits both our City Select and our City Mini GT double stroller, but we are not getting quite as much use out of it as I had hoped, perhaps our older child will grow to like it more as he gets older, as he prefers to ride in the stroller still. I appreciate that I can leave the glider board attached to the stroller to fold, but I do need to remove the wheels for it to fit.

Love this!!
I bought this for my older son for my single city mini and he absolutely loves it. He thinks it is own personal "skateboard. " I love how it keeps his near me and how he loves using it.

A good short ride option
This Glider works ok with my city mini. I am tall at 5'9 so I can reach around my kids when they ride on the glider. They also like to sit on the glider for longer rides. It is a good option for your children to hop on and off when they like and still keep your stroller compact. I do like the ease of putting it on and off the stroller. The glider also extends so it can be moved further and closer to the stroller.

Serves the purpose!
We use this with my 4 year old-sometimes he wants to sit in the stroller and sometimes he wants to ride so he can jump off and on. It's easy to install and use. Yes-when there is a bigger kid on the board it can get a bit cumbersome, but hey-it works and is cool for the child :) We just make the handle bar taller and change our stride a bit to accommodate. It's a huge help when we want to have a place for 3 kids to sit/stand for long walks.

It's okay
It is too long so I kick it when I walk, and I have to bend forward awkwardly to push the stroller. My 2.5 year old thinks it's fun, and it does make the stroller a bit shorter than when using it as a double stroller, but not by much. Would have like something slimmer.

Not fit for purpose
I love love love my new baby jogger city mini so bought the glider board expecting the same quality. Unfortunately this was not the case, firstly it scratched the silver finish on the frame where it clips on, secondly when pushing my two year old the wheels would go crazy , flapping about so it felt like I was pushing though thick mud and thirdly I could not walk up rightly due to the position of the board. I am not one to complain but with something that you use everyday it has to be right. I had to do without the buggy board and my little boy is without a ride :(

Glider board is great for our 3 kids.
We just recently got the glider board, we were always carrying one kid. It is easy to take on and off and easy to store when not using it. It is nice that it can be put all the way in or pulled all the way out. Our kids like to sit on it or stand with their heads under between the handle bar and seat. It works great when all 3 kids want to ride!

Has cons
I was so excited to get this cause it looks awesome, but I'm a little disappointed. It isn't as awesome as I want it to be. Here are the cons:
1) The handle bar of the stroller is all up in my toddlers face, even when the glider board is in its most far back setting.
2) It makes it hard to reach the handle bar (and I'm 5'9") of my city mini GT and makes it hard to steer.
3) I keep kicking the wheel of the glider board when walking. Which hurts when you're in flip flops
4) you have to take the wheels off in order to fold the stroller.
Overall, I don't love it, but I'm gonna keep it for those few instances when the pros of having it will outweigh the cons. But I will not use as often as I would've liked because of the reasons stated above.

Not great with the Versa
We had high hopes for the glider board, but I regret buying it. With the Versa, you can best use the glider board when the seat is outward facing and fully upright. It's tough to use when the seat is parent facing, but can be done. My main gripes are the wheels losing traction constantly and the stroller break sometimes getting stuff if the board is flipped up. Walking with it is a little awkward but manageable.

Not a Smooth Ride
The Wheels can have problems with shaking lots, unless your child distributes their weight really well. It is a great idea and works in theory, but sometimes has way too shaky of wheels. I don't regret buying as I think it can still work at times, but would not go on a long walk with it down.

Great for 3rd child
I bought this about a month ago and am very happy with it. It's easy to connect and flips up when not in use. My 3 y/o prefers to sit on it rather than stand, and holds onto the cross bar that is infront of him. This product could be five stars if the deck had a feature that folds up as a seat back.

Mad
You'd think a BabyJogger Glider would be compatible with my Baby Jogger Stroller. It's not! It won't fit as the place where the brakes attach is where the glider is supposed to attach.

Uncomfortable to use
With the city mini, this is a terrible accessory, the board is too low with the consequence that the pusher has to adjust their stride in a manner that prevents them from walking straight. That is, outstretched arms to reach the handle, with bottom and legs trailling a metre behind to avoid feet knocking into board. It becomes hard to steer the buggy, and going down gutters brings weight to the back requiring one to forcefully hold the buggy up to avoid it tipping backwards.

Amazing!
My oldest was just over four when my little one was born and I knew I did not want to buy a double stroller (she is too big for a stroller, the stroller is too big for my little car, yadda, yadda). I found and purchased the glider board for my City Mini and I love it!
I love how easily the board attaches to the rear axle of the stroller. Attaching or removing the board (if you need the stroller to be really flat, i.e. small trunk) literally takes less than a minute. The elastic straps are really great for keeping the board out of your way when you aren't using it and store really nicely underneath when the board is in use (though they may pop off the "storage" hook if you accidentally kick it in the right spot when strolling). The board's wheels pop on or come off really easily (not in a bad/dangerous way), which is great for storage and/or packing. But most of all, I love how my oldest can ride when she wants and walk when she wants and I can keep both of my kids safe without having the bulk of a double stroller.
It seems every time my oldest daughter is riding on this board, somebody is asking me where I found this fabulous item!

Toddler loves it
My son asks to ride the "skateboard" and no longer cares that his sister has taken over his stroller. Easy to install and fold when not in use.

Great product
This glider board has been a lifesaver for our family. We had 3 kids under 3.5 yrs and still use this 5 yrs later! It is a little tricky with the city mini double but it is definitely doable! We just took our stroller to disney and we had a great time!

great idea, but I don't love it
I bought this for my older child when I switched to a single stroller full time. I've used it once, and it is a giant pain. The older kid is in the way, no matter what you do. It's a great idea, but I wish I hadn't bought it.
