The carrier itself is first rate. My daughter is safe & secure. Ventilation and protection are great. The only drawbacks are the price and it should include at least one option (jogging kit or bike trailer kit).

"Over-engineered" is a good description of this jogger. My boy is now almost 7 mos old, and has spent 5 of those months now in our CX1. Lots of comfort features for him - wide, cushioned straps, completely weatherproof interior (even when it's -30C with wind!), fleece lining, UV shield, no worries about toys/bottles falling out. The large storage basket is also useful for impromptu shopping trips, extra clothing/gear, diaper bags and blankets. I use this jogger 6-7 days a week, and it's the most impressive piece of baby equipment we own.

My wife was getting all this baby junk so I had to get something I could get excited about. This is an expensive stroller, but once I opened the box and pulled it out, I was like "Holy Cow, this thing is nicer than my car." And I drive a BMW. First day home from the hospital we pushed the kid 3 miles (he was in the Infant Sling accessory). Stroller works great, smooth as silk and absolutely silent when using the jogging front wheel and riding on nice asphalt. Zip off side windows, pockets for stuff all over the place, you can flip the handle for tall or short parents, or take it off for biking. I put a bicycle computer on it too see how far and fast we walk/run. You can easily mount the sensor on the arm for the rear drum brake. To make it perfect it needs curtains on the sides and top when the sun is really intense (we just drape a towel on top). Also, the bike hitch arm is made such that the trailer tracks off to the left of center. I'd like it better centered, but I think they just use the same arm for both the one and two person strollers. All in all I couldn't be more pleased and this is coming from a person who thinks most stuff is crap.
