Chicco Capri Stroller - Jive

Comments about Chicco Capri Stroller - Jive:

This stroller is awesome. Since our daughter is almost 11 months old, we don't typically keep the travel system in our car anymore because she can sit in carts at stores. This is very well put together, its stores very easliy and takes up almost no room at all. I love that it has the option to recline your kid or let them sit straight up. It's also great that you can put the sun shade on, or chose to leave it off. The handles are so comfortable, and at a perfect height for anyone. It rides very smooth and has easy transition from grass to concrete, and does great on both. I will definitely be purchasing Chicco brand from here on out!

I loved this stroller when I first saw it. We were given a travel system as a baby shower gift. As our little girl got older we decided we needed a lightweight stroller to just throw in the car. My husband left this decision to me. I went to the store and fell in love with the colors on this stroller. It rolled great too. The downside.......The wheels get the canopy dirty when it is in the folded position. The handles need to be about 3 inches longer. (I'm 5'9 and he is 5'11....my MIL is 5'2 and adores this stroller) That is my only complaints. It is the ideal stroller for shorter people!@

I got this stroller for a baby shower gift, and i couldn't love it more! It is perfect for taking my one year old shopping or to the park. I get complements on it all the time. The colors are bright and cheery. The only thing i don't like about it is that the canopy gets dirty when you fold it up because the tires fold in to it. I did read other reviews.. and people please do remember this is a light weight stroller if you need room to carry your big diaper bag and your child cant lay down all the way then maybe you should be using a full size one instead. This is a great buy and i would recommend it to anyone!!

I bought this stroller after selling our travel system. I did my research and felt from the reviews that this stroller would fit the bill! After purchasing it I realized that some of the other things (that I thought wouldn't bother me) but that I read about were I kept kicking the back wheels of this stroller! I am 5'2 and I thought I would definitely not have a problem like others said they had but I did and it was VERY ANNOYING! That was the first problem. Second, the basket on the bottom is super small and cannot hold much partly because it's small and partly because it's hard to reach. I a not one who carries around diaper bags or alot of other 'stuff' but I do like the basket for times when I need to run into the grocery store and throw a few things in the bottom basket. That was NOT going to happen with this stroller. Third and something I did not think about until after I had it but there is no window to see baby when you are using the canopy. All parents want to be able to peek in on baby regardless of age and with this stroller you would have to bend to the side to look around the canopy. Fourth there was no tray for baby which I didn't think I would miss but I did. As far as being no cup holder for me that wasn't a concern because the basket is sufficient to hold a bottle of water. Lastly, my 14 month old daughter was constantly squirming in the stroller! Something she NEVER did with the travel system stroller. She was always very content to be in her stroller but not with this one! Also her feet had nowhere to go. I like a stroller that has a little footbar. Her feet just kind of hung there and she appeared to be uncomfortable and definitely 'voiced' her opinion about it. The reason I gave it any stars at all is because the colors are fun and it was very easy to push! It was a smooth ride and I liked the handles and the manuverability. The 5 point harness and extra padding on the straps was nice too. Although the price is reasonable - you get what you pay for. I just bought the Combi Cosmo Lilly model and am loving it already! Good luck stroller shopping AND do your research!

This stroller in the Jive color is so stunningly beautiful in person, I have had the most compliments on this stroller than anything else. Great stroller in general, the wheels in front lock straight forward, and the breaks work good. The sun shade is ajustable to keep the baby's eyes protected.

I am 5'2'' and have no problem with the non adjustable handles, but if you are much taller you may find yourself hunched over to push it. My husband complains of kicking it, while walking, when he pushes it.

Overall great purchase!

We currently use this for our 6 month old who smiles whenever she sees it (which is a wonderful change from her reluctant acceptance of her car seat). She seems to love the bright, fun print and seems comfortable riding around in it. We had tried the Maclaren Volo but it was much too big. Also, the green isn't as intense as it looked from my computer screen but still nice and bright.

I am a single mom and my son, James and I travel quite a bit through the airport. I needed something that I could drag everywhere and use with one hand. I did about 6 hours of research online, reading review after review, and I went to Babysrus to test drive all the umbrella strollers. I tried everything, the McClaren, the cheapo strollers, and found this was the easiest to use, plus my son absolutely loves the bright colors. I can even push it with one hand, which I love. It is a great price, it comes fully put together (which is awesome!) and I couldn't be happier. If you read this review, you can stop looking and buy this stroller!!!

I loved this stroller because it was lightweight and a great fit for the car. I didn't like that it didn't have cup holders, but I did purchase one you can add on at babies r us. My biggest problem was although I loved the colors, the stroller gets a lot of use outdoors and got very dirty. When I tried to take the seat off, I found it was sccrewed on. I had to use a screwdriver to remove it and wash it. I couldn't find all of the holes to screw it back on, as they look like little rips in the seat cushion, but the stroller was clean and sturdy. The next time I went to use it one of the buckles had broke in the wash and now my daughter can climb out when she pleases. (I wash my graco highchair seat in the same washer and the buckles have never broken) So now we are in the market for a new stroller. Very dissapointed because I liked the stroller, but with 2 on the go children I need something that is easy to clean. We also never used the sun shade because it didn't attach well and provided little to no shade. Also people mentioned it reclined and it definately doesn't lay flat, just a zipper and snaps that lower it slightly.

This is a great stroller. I wanted something that folded up like an umbrella stroller, but most umbrella strollers were cheaply made and were junk. I already have an big stroller but wanted something to use on quick shopping trips! This stroller is GREAT!

I've uploaded a picture for those people who complained about the canopy getting dirty from the wheels of the stroller. I decided to help with that problem. I purchased from Babies "R" Us online a Stroller Weather Sheild from Especially For Baby. It keeps your baby not only warm from the the wind and snow but helps keep your stroller canopy clean from the dirt on the stroller wheels. Also I've used this stoller a few times now and the only thing I can complain about is that you surely can't use one hand to manuever the stroller its impossible I've tried several times while grocery shopping with things in my hand and it doesn't work. I still give it 5 stars, I am so happy that I purchased this stroller. A+++ Chicco
