We have used this bassinet nearly every day of the month since we brought our daughter home from the hospital. It makes a great 2nd bed downstairs during her afternoon naps, and is perfect for strolls into town or naps in the yard while we are gardening. As other reviews mention you do have to use parts of the frame and the canopy from the child seat that comes with the stroller to create the bassinet seen in the picture. But presumably you aren't going to use both the child seat and bassinet with the same child. If you have two children you will have to purchase a second child seat anyway. So far we have loved this stroller and all it's accessories! We would definitely recommend it. (Our one wish would be that the bottom/base of this bassinet folded in 1/2 for easier storage and travel.)

My baby is only 4 months old, so too young for the regular seat on the City Select, which states 6 months is the minimum age. But she's already too big for the bassinet. What do we do in this in-between phase? Stuff her in the bassinet, or sneak her into the seat too early? I wish the City Select bassinet could accomodate her at this age.

Typically I like to give positive reviews and this would be a positive review except there are certain problems that unless you the consumer are notified in advance by reviewers like me, you would not know.
the bassinet performs fantastically, assembly is easy and requires some muscle work but the directions are clear and concise.
However. nowhere in the description of the product does it state you MUST USE PREEXISTING SEAT'S SUN VISOR/HOOD!!!
this is only a problem if you are like me and have a diamond seat, a onyx seat and decidee, oh I want a Ruby bassinet. a heads up or a written description would have helped stating that the second seat frame AND HOOD COVER needed to be utilized for this bassinet.
other than that major issue, this bassinet performs flawlessly and is quite sturdy, we also have a City Jogger Elite with the soft bassinet, that one is much longer and has a decent zipper cover that can double as insulation (blanket) this...Read more
