Peg-Perego 2010 Skate Stroller System, Tropical (Baby Product) When I went to pick up the package, it was huge. So, I was a little taken back. But, when I opened it, I got so excited! I bought this because being 4 months post partum, I was ready to start walking and losing the weight. I did tons of research between this one, Phil & Ted's strollers, Mutsy, etc etc. I am SO happy I bought this one. We live where there are some rough roads so my biggest concern was getting a stroller that "glided". This one is AMAZING. I have my son facing me, he passes out in it and DOESN'T wake up from his nap. With my little Graco stroller, every rock we hit he would wake up. I feel like I could hit a boulder in this and he wouldn't budge. I love the bassinet feature that came with it. He isn't too thrilled about that, but it is neat to have. I used the rain tarp today and it was perfect. I love how the sunshade covers more than half the stroller so no rain, wind etc. can get in on my son. Anyway, I have to get going but I LOVE this stroller. Happy strolling to all who get it!!!! .

Chicco Cortina KeyFit 30 Travel System - Midori (Baby Product) We have been so happy with our Chicco Cortina travel system! Everything about it is practically perfect. My favorite features include: - 4 cup holders & a small item case, plus a basket underneath for more storage - easy to remove car seat cover & pads to wash - I can remove it from my trunk & unfold it all with one hand - canopy rotates down to cover my baby's face when facing the sunlight - adjustable handle bar - the carseat base is SO nice & easy to use - the color schemes & fabric are very stylish, easy to clean, and durable - carseat snaps in SO easily to both the stroller & the base, it's very easy to use - unlike other strollers we've both used & tested, none of the adjusting mechanisms have EVER jammed or given us trouble. After over a year of frequent use, it still functions like new We just recently stopped using this system since our daughter has outgrown it, but we have another baby on the way and the stroller & travel system is still in great condition & has worn well - we'll be using it again! I highly recommend this product, it's worth the extra price. We tested out ALL of the strollers we could find, and this one both rides & folds/unfolds better than them ALL. This travel system literally screams "GOOD DESIGN!" and honestly, as a parent with a million baby products, that is very rare. The Chicco Cortina is a winner in my book. .

Graco Travel System- Melbourne (Baby Product) I absolutely love this system. It has great handling which is perfect for shopping and getting down tight aisles. It has a very smooth ride. When used together, the shade from the stroller and car seat pull together to make a full tent cover over baby. It folds up very nicely and is quite compact. I took this along when flying with my baby to Mexico and it worked so well. The cup holders and compartment are great for mom and dad. The car seat is also narrow so that others can still fit in the back seat of a small car and it is very portable. The only complaint I have is that the stroller seat does no lay completely flat for a sleeping baby. Also, as my son is still not sitting up on his own, it would be nice if the stroller seat would also sit completely upright. (like a 90 degree angle) These are very minor details so other than that, it is wonderful. .

Graco Quattro Tour Travel System with Snugride30, Carlise (Baby Product) Super soft and has a little extra padding than some of the other travel systems. We had a hand me down stroller with our first and you get what you pay for! So we splurged with this one and would do it again if we had to! I would recommmend to anyone!! Graco Quattro Tour Travel System with Snugride30, Carlise (Baby Product) If buying a fancy and expensive stroller crossed your mind, don't waste your time or money. Several years ago, we were looking for a stroller for my first child..

Graco Spree Travel System, Barcelona Bluegrass (Baby Product) I just got this yesterday, and so far, I'm very impressed! The directions to assemble the carseat were easy to follow, and it seemed pretty easy to put together. I really appreciate that they didn't send this with a bunch of screws; nearly everything just snaps into place! The stroller seems very sturdy, and I've already found that it's easy to steer around. I don't feel that it's too bulky or heavy. It did fit right into the trunk of my midsize car (though from experience with a friend's similar model, a clean, moderately sized trunk helps a lot for storing this stroller). I love how this system looks too; the lining will just wipe clean, but it's not such a stiff material that is uncomfortable. It just looks pretty too. :) My daughter has already spent quite a bit of time in her new seat, and at 4 and a half months old, she settled right in and seemed very comfortable! I hope the future with our new travel system is just as good as the 1st day has been! .

Chicco Cortina KeyFit 30 Travel System in Adventure (Baby Product) Positives: The car seat installed extremely easily. So much easier than the other seat we bought for our older son. The car seat latches in and comes out very easily. The car seat latches into the stroller and comes out very easily. The stroller also works great for our 2 year old as well when necessary. The stroller handles amazingly well. It is extremely easy to maneuver with just one hand and works better than any other stroller I've ever come across. Negatives: The car seat latch straps were ALMOST too short to fit into the SUV. However, they did fit. The Stroller is a little bulky when folded up, but that is to be expected with any travel system. Overall, this system is great. It works very well and looks great and without any hesitation I would strongly recommend it to others. .

Britax B-Agile Stroller, Red (Baby Product) I was in search of a lightweight stroller for running errands, going to the store, etc but wanted something more substantial than an umbrella stroller. Since my baby is 2 months old, I also wanted something that could lie flat. I got several recommendations from neighborhood moms for the City Mini, so I was pretty much sold on it until I went to "test drive" it and came across the new B-Agile. The strollers have the same look, are the same size, and just about the same weight. But, the B-Agile won me over because it has: - a much smother ride - the shocks seem better and the wheels are better - better foot clearance - the City Mini is not good for people with long legs and/or people who take long strides. B-Agile has a curved bar so your leg can fit - better seat padding - the City Mini feels hard as rocks compared to B-Agile, plus B-Agile has a great infant head rest - fabric isn't as "slippery" - City Mini fabric feels slick and cheap - handle bar much more comfortable to hold - similar to BOB - folding is SO easy and locks into place automatically Everything else is comparable or the same. For $10 more than City Mini, get the B-Agile. Only downfalls are the expensive attachments (you will pay just as much for Baby Jogger City Mini attachments)....for $249 you'd think they would give mom a cup holder for coffee!!! .

Mutsy 4Rider Stroller, Cargo Grey (Baby Product) We are a family that takes good care of our things.. but this stroller does not hold up. The initial feel and look of this stroller is great. It feels much sturdier and better built than other comparable strollers. The problem is that one thing after another has failed, and the customer service/support in the United States is extremely poor. It makes us feel very frustrated that we spent so much money on this stroller. The initial tires and replacement tires kept going flat. We tried foam tires, but they did not make consistent contact with the ground. Perhaps they were not intended for this model stroller. We finally acquired a set of tires that held their air. The stroller has a very difficult time moving forward once it has driven backwards, such as when backing up into an elevator and then trying to push the stroller out once the doors open. The black rubber strips on the foot rest peeled off within 5 months of owning the stroller, despite the fact that our baby was still using the infant carrier and had not yet made contact with the foot rest. The black foam on the handle bar separated from the center piece, so that there was 3/4" exposed center metal on either side. And perhaps the most frustrating, the stroller's closing mechanism has failed, so that we never know when we go to close the stroller if it will close or not. We have tried replacing the handle bar (for the foam separation issue and the closing issue), but with no improvement in our ability to close the stroller. I have had to check the stroller on an airplane in the open position, and have had to place the open frame in the car seat next to me because I couldn't get it closed. There is no telling when the stroller will close and when it won't. We live in New England and I have spent many compiled hours standing in the freezing cold trying to get my stroller to close while my baby sat inside the car! Customer service always responds in a timely and friendly fashion, but never with anything concrete. The conversation just goes round and round until pushed into a corner. We waited 9 months, and had to contact the office in The Netherlands, before receiving our replacement handlebar. The US office kept telling us "we have no control what arrives in the barrels" month after month. The stroller is no longer under warranty, and we would be willing to pay a reasonable cost to replace the stroller frame. The cost they quoted is greater than 50% of the purchase price of a new stroller. It is hard to justify investing this much additional money in a product we have lost faith in. Sadly, we are giving up and are thinking of the UPPAbaby as a replacement. .
