We got this stroller before my son was born, and it has been okay for us. It rides smoothly, and popping the carseat in and out is very easy. It folds up easily though requires two hands to do so. Folded, it is huge. I have a full size SUV, and it takes up the entire back with not much room to spare. It's also quite heavy, so if you don't have much arm strength or are short, you might find this stroller to be difficult to load in a higher clearance vehicle. The canopy covers infant seats very well, but is too small to use in sunlight without the infant seat. The big reason for the 3 star review is that when the infant seat is installed, the basket underneath is pretty much unusable. I can't even squeeze a small diaper bag in and out, which is very irritating. The console is too small also with only one drink holder and an awkwardly shaped covered compartment that is too small to fit a wallet. It's not bad for the price, but could use a lot of improvement to make it great.

Purchased this stroller in 2012 with the infant carrier. Works well as a travel system but don't expect to get anything in the basket if the carrier is attached. I had to purchase a mommy hook just for my purse. The seat reclines great for a sleeping infant. The stroller does not allow a 90 degree upright position.. My daughter is 1 and has to lean up so she can see. It stays in a partially recline mode. The stroller is bulky and takes up the majority of my empty trunk (I have a Camry). I was pleased with the purchase in the beginning as a travel system but after 5 mos I purchased an umbrella stroller. The stroller was to heavy and cumbersome for my Mom during the day. Fabric easy to clean with mild soap and water. I am looking at getting the liter Chicco liteway as a replacement.

This is our 3rd stroller we owned two different Graco Brands. Our 15 month old is in the 94 th percentile for height she is a tall girl! This stroller looks like it will be perfect for her while she grows. The stroller sun shade DOES move all the way forward which is a great feature and a must have for us also I love that the foot rest can be up all the way or be in the middle or all the way down. We are tall people (5'11 and 6'1) and this stroller doesn't make us feel all slouched over like the other strollers we have had (Graco brand) another amazing thing is the cover the baby sits on can be removed and washed so if your baby throws up on it it's not a problem to just take off and throw in the washer. BEST STROLLER WE OWNED! Feels Sturdy and a full size stroller and it is not heavy!

I researched so many strollers before deciding on this one. I could not be happier with my choice! It's easy to assemble. It steers like a dream, and it seems very comfortable for my baby...he even fell asleep in it at the mall. The storage basket is very roomy - plenty of room for my large diaper bag AND my purse. The canopy could be a bit larger, but it does the job. This is a great stroller that I can see us using for a couple of years. Highly recommended!

Overall this stroller was useful. I also purchased the Keyfit 30 carseat and loved it! We used this as a travel system occasionally and were pleased...but not overjoyed! It was a stroller that we could afford. It's a pretty standard travel system stroller. Here are some things I didn't like:
-It was a little heavy and irritating to get in and out of my trunk. Although it did fit nicely(Jetta) and left room for a decent grocery run.
-I wish the recline went completely flat but since I used the attached car seat if baby needed to sleep it wasn't too much of an issue.
-I wasn't overly impressed with the sunshade...not that much coverage.
-It was hard to get much of anything in and out of the basket when it's reclined...which it will always stay in that position when you are attaching the car seat. I had to turn my diaper bag on its side and squeeze it through the opening. This is pretty normal for travel systems.
-I wish the recline would sit more upright as well. As baby gets older they like to sit up and forward and look around. The most upright position is still reclined. Most strollers are this way also.
-Bottom line-you get what you pay for. If you are not going to be using a stroller right away or until you know your baby has neck support and will sit alone in a stoller...don't buy this. Not great for everyday use! I wish I would have bought a Snap and Go and used that with the carseat until about 5 or 6 months. Then purchased a nicer quality stroller (like a Baby Jogger, or even a higher quality umbrella stroller) for walks and malls, ect. I can't imagine taking this thing on a long trip or in the airport..no way!
I hope this helps you!!

Excellent stroller for use with matching infant seat. The only complaint I have with the stroller is that it is difficult to access the storage basket when the back is in the lowest position to accommodate the infant seat. The stroller is not nearly as heavy as our jogging stroller

I love it !

It is a nice stroller with the big exception of the recliner back. The backing of it does not allow your child to sit up. My daughter could only sit in the stroller if she was sitting up on her own. It did not support her back very well at all. Very disappointing.
