A Comfortable & Sleek Must Have!
As first-time parents, the Thule Urban Glide Bassinet was a must have for us! We use it daily to walk and explore with our newborn and he absolutely loves it. Strolls are smooth, comfortable, and safe for all involved. We also love the Mesh Cover that came with the bassinet. It protects our little one from bugs, wind, sun, & keeps strangers at a distance. Thanks so much Thule!

Great for naps
I debated getting this or a car seat adapter, but we got a convertible car seat so just sprung for the bassinet. Like many baby products, we used it intensely for the first few months then baby grew out of it. She didn’t like laying flat after 4ish months—we switched to the regular seat (just walking) at 5 months. It was so awesome though in the beginning, the baby would fall asleep before I even rolled out of the driveway. I could walk up to 2 hours while she slept. I liked that it was flat for safe sleep and pretty well covered from the elements. The Urban Glide was our only stroller and I’m very happy this worked out.

Wonderful addition
We kept thinking whether to go for the infant car seat adapter (which we do not have ) or with this bassinet. After reading about how an infant shouldn't sit more than a couple hours in an infant car seat we decided to go with this bassinet because we do see long walks in our future. We were very worried about it. We have already gone on half a dozen walks with the baby and she loves being in the bassinet. The cushion is enough to keep her from sliding around on pretty rough terrain (no blanket just her in her diaper and clothing laying in the bassinet). The covers on the feet and the shade that folds down in front of the remaining opening (surprisingly not shown in their online photos) allows almost for near 100% sun coverage, which is fantastic for any time of the day. We were very concerned about how useful this would be but so far we have been very surprised. It has been a life save in going for long walks with the infant, trips to the farmer's market, without having her strapped to us or worrying about time spent in an infant car seat. The only recommendation I would suggest is for Thule to keep thinking about how to make the cushion better for cleaning. I think it is great for softness and keeping the kid from sliding, but it might get dirty quickly. Luckily it is only needed for 6 months. Maybe they can sell replacements?

Waste of money
I splurged on this bassinet attachment and was really looking forward to using with my little one. Very disappointed in overall design. The sunshade does not extend far enough to offer much protection for baby. Also, there is no way to strap baby in so if you live in a neighborhood with hills, the baby just slides all over the bassinet. It has no capability to adjust for sitting at an incline so baby can see out. I’m not sure what infant would be satisfied being pushed around completely laying down without being able to really look around right through to 6 months, so best case scenario maybe you get a months use out of it before baby starts wanting to look around more. Another gripe is airflow, the bassinet would be much better in cold weather climates, but I live in a tropical climate and don’t feel like this design allows for much airflow for the baby especially if you have to cover he bassinet to compensate for the sunshade not extending fully enough to protect baby. As a new mom, this is one of my most regrettable purchases

Response from thule-us-ca
Hello Erin, Thank you for taking the time to reach out and share your experience with the Thule Urban Glide 2 Bassinet. I'm sorry to hear that you were dissatisfied with the use of the stroller accessory. The bassinet is intended for children up to six months of age who are unable to roll over or sit up on their own. Children who can are too old for the bassinet, and would likely be safer in a harnessed stroller. The bassinet should also only intended for use in walking over flat surfaces for safety reasons. The fabric and canopy are designed to provide UPF 50+ sun protection for use in a variety of weather conditions. Thule is always in the process of improving and updating our products. Customer input is always valuable in that process so we can provide the best products possible.
Okay but for the handle bar
Overall we are pleased however the foam handlebar now has a hole after less than 10 easy walks.
