found this review for the Comfy Baby Deluxe Weatherproof Rain Cover with Retractable Sun Shade and Large Easy-Access Window 5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect Fit for my First Years Ignite Stroller!, May 7, 2010 By Candy Coated - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?) This review is from: Comfy Baby Deluxe Weatherproof Rain Cover with Retractable Sun Shade and Large Easy-Access Window (Baby Product) It is a perfect fit for my new The First Years Ignite Stroller! The picture of the item here on Amazon does not do justice to the product. The plastic portion in front which opens up via a zipper is very clear, thick and stiff. The zipper area opens quite large so you can tend to your child without removing the entire cover. There are ventilation holes on both side of the cover. The sun shade is another great thing this product offers that other similar stroller covers don't provide. Also, it's nicely folded in a way that it fits flat at the bottom of my stroller basket. It stays there and I pull it out when I need it. This is a great purchase!

I love this canopy. Super easy to use, great for rain & blocking winter wind. It should fit the GT since it attaches by the top of the stroller & not the push handle (which are different shapes on the two models). I would compare lengths on babyjogger.com, measuring from highest to the lowest part of the stroller "carriage body". There is a bit extra give by the lowest point which is where you'd need a little more coverage, due to a more square shape, if I recall correctly. When I was comparing this canopy with the one from buy buy baby that is made for it, many reviews stated that the black cover blocked the "window" to see your child. 100% agree. So happy I bought the all clear one. I love this canopy. Super easy to use, great for rain & blocking winter wind.

Lee, did you find a better cover? I have a convertible 2008 Saab 9-3 that I've been trying to find a great cover for! Thought RainX would be a good bet, but not from reading this.....

I installed one on mine and the fit was great. It stops all rain while driving. I placed two foam pieces under the spot where it touches the hood. I love it. Take your time on the install and you will be fine. Curtis

Yeah there is no rain cover, but honestly you could just buy one separate or make shift your own.

Yes, it follows the shape of your strollers existing sunshade so you can see them through the back. I've used it on jogging, umbrella and travel system strollers and can't say enough great things about it. It isn't waterproof. In light rain I have draped a receiving blanket over the top and baby hasn't gotten wet. It is completely adjustable and stretchy to really cover baby or be pulled way up on top like it isn't even there. I love this thing!

It is not waterproof and does not come with a rain cover. You can check with Everki if they can send you one. They are very good responding to customer queries.

Yes, they make a cover. No, rain does not interfere with performance. Cover is used only when it is out of season and you are not taking it down...

This does not come with an umbrella. The "type" of stroller is often referred to as an umbrella stroller because it folds up like an umbrella and is lightweight but does not refer to an actual umbrella component. Hope that helps!

As i stated before. The ignite has a stationary shade, but it is a little bigger. the jet has one you can move and rotate but is smaller. We don't have a problem with our ignite, but our daughter is 2 and will just move is she wants to or ask for her sunglasses. The ignite recline about 5 inches, and the jet about 2 with a pull string cord. I would want my child to be at least 6 months for the ignite, probably a year for the jet.....less support on the back of the seat. I say the jet is more like an umbrella stroller seat wise with the fully movable shade, the ignite is more like your full size stroller seat and shade wise.I have pics of her in it reclined and sitting, but don't know where to post them??

hmmm...wellwe get loads of rain and I have noticed that where the flame goes up in the middle, the paint is gone on the cover . And where that spot is, it is rusting.I would think you would need something more heavy duty. Or buy a cover for it

hi, it's made of that tight woven nylon/polyester so it's probably splash proof. But it stains and gets wet when my toddler spills the contents of his sippy cup on it. So definitely not waterproof. I guess the good thing about it, is that it's removable and washable so it's better to get drips and spills on the liner, rather than your stroller seat. I'm sorry I dont know if it will fit your stroller. it fits my umbrella stroller (and will fit most of this type I expect) as well as my 3 wheel jogging stroller. hope this helps!

I would contact Foundations directly @ www.foundations.com. The rain shield came with our stroller.

Yes, this fits the city mini. It is a nice alternative to the more expensive rain cover by the baby jogger company in my opinion.

I don't think it's waterproof - if it's raining I use a plastic rain cover over the stroller and BundleMe. It does fine with snow or drizzle, but I wouldn't use it in heavy rain without a cover.

There is no "cover" that goes over the stroller. I have not been out in inclement weather to really know how long the pet will stay dry if curled up towards the rear of the stroller but I wouldn't recommend it!!

No it does not come with a rain cover. The exterior is water repellant but I always put a rain poncho over the top if I am shooting in a downpour (in Arizona that doesn't happen often but when it does it's like Noah's Ark kind of rain).
