I was deciding between this stroller and the new City Mini GT2, and I'm so glad I got this one. Overall the Swift fits what's important to me - manoueveribility, compactness and balance. This stroller is so easy to push around and the large air-filled tires give me confidence that the stroller should last for a long time. It also folds down really well and I love that it can stand on itself. It is also super well-balanced - I know Mountain Buggy prides themselves on having an excellent 'kerb pop', and this stroller is certainly the case. Overall this works well for me as I was looking for something that wouldn't take up too much space but still be sturdy and would endure being used a lot. (For comparison, the City Mini is larger, has a better sun cover and larger basket, but tips easily.) Some things to note are that the sun cover is small (I had read this in other reviews too) and that the basket is on the small side. Regarding sun shade, you can buy the additional sun cover that covers the whole front, and it even comes with a blackout cover that you could use for naps! For the basket, if you can manage with a smaller basket, this would be fine. It isn't tiny, but also isn't the biggest. But because the stroller is so well balanced, you can hang things off the back and sides so that does give you some extra space. Another thing to note is that the seat can be reclined completely flat! I really like this feature. Overall, I'm really happy with this stroller and can see us using it for many years.
