4.0 out of 5 stars Been jogging with this stroller since 2008, September 29, 2010

This review is from: Baby Trend Expedition LX Travel System, Millennium (Baby Product)

I got the 2008 model for a baby show gift 2 years ago. It was easy to assemble, I did it myself. I have been using it on a regular basis now, I probably jog about 10-12 miles a week and it still works like new. The place I jog at is very hilly and curvy a hand brake would make it easier to maneuver, but over all it does pretty well. Since I have been using it for so long I have found ways to overcome it. It works just as well in town, as in the country, or beach, or camping. When my son was younger the snap and go car seat worked great. Now he is two and I have a new baby and I am using the car seat for him and it still works just as well. We are now looking for a double jogger for me, but until then I use this one while my husband watches my other son.
Pros: 12" Swivel wheel that locks well in jogging mode
Sun shade is not attached to stroller handle bar so it can be moved to block son
Fits in most doorways so great for shopping
Has a large basket underneath
Comes with car seat and snap n' go base
Has a wrist strap for jogging that works great
Cons: no hand brake (but so fare no one makes swivel well jogging strollers with a hand brake)
When folded it take up a lot of room, no problem if you have a large vehicle like an SUV or mine van
For long runs on rugged tureen shakes a lot
car seat snap n' go car seat only works with Baby trend products
Over all I am very happy with this model. For just a basic jogging stroller without the extras this works great in walking and jogging mode and it is durable for the money. I would recommend it to anyone looking for the basics.

5.0 out of 5 stars A year later & still love it!, February 27, 2011

I got this stroller system while I was pregnant w/ my 1st child. I did not want a bulky, heavy travel system like the many Graco ones. I figured I would be able to get by w/ a carrier, snap&go and an all-terrain/jogger like stroller. Over a year later - I was so RIGHT w/ this system!

The Carrier/Carseat: The Flex-loc carrier is great!!! It is amply padded, light weight and the triangle handle is genius - lets you get a firm/steady grip on it from any angle. The sunshade is large and is not attached to the back like so many other carriers - this lets you "follow-the-sun" and keep baby's face shaded at all times, key when walking outdoors. Yes - the fabric of the seat is not as soft or "high-end" feeling as some other carriers but after a year of use I have found it to be very easy to clean & has kept its cushion perfectly. We used an extra soft/padded insert from 0-5 months (about $20 at BabiesRus) and my daughter was plenty comfy. My daughter is 14mo & I now have to change to a convertible carseat and am very sad to say good bye to this carrier.

The Jogger: My sister has a BOB revolution and I wouldn't trade if she paid me! The jogger does have some cons - I'll get to them 1st so I can get to the pro's.
Cons: Bulky when folded, heavy to lift into the car, double foot breaks are kind of cheap & a pain w/ flip-flops, fabric & padding are not as soft or cushiony as many other strollers (tip: etsy.com has tons of super cute stroller liners to add extra padding & comfort - I have one & it made all the difference - BeloBe makes specifically for this stroller).
Pros: comes w/ parent bar (2 cup holders & a decent size/secure compartment - fits cell, chap-stick, ear-buds, paci & sm bottle of hand-sani easily), contoured handle bar is comfortable for running - unlike the strait bars which prop your elbows up too high, sunshade is huge & fully moveable to "follow-the-sun" & keep baby shaded at all times, child tray w/ 2 cup holders and large inset tray area for toys & snacks, wide seat base, reclines to almost flat (definitely enough for child to sleep comfy or change a diaper), large rear wheels & swivel front tire make steering a breeze - easily one-handed over smooth terrain like beach paths, large & durable storage basket - may say 5lb limit but I've had a gallon of milk & 10lb bag of dog food in it w/ no problem. This is a stroller you can actually RUN behind. Lock the front wheel and go - I was able to run a 8.16min mile (which is almost as fast as I can go on my own & definitely faster than "jogging"). I do not suggest jogging w/ the carrier attached tho - while it does lock-in & will not just pop off, I found it made the whole system too unsteady/top-heavy for my taste, a brisk walk or light jog is fine tho. I use it to walk & jog at the beach, camping, on nature trails, around the park and thru my neighborhood & never wished I had sprung for a BOB or other high-end jogger.

Overall - Best Jogger travel system for the price range & functionally comparable to many higher-end joggers. It is not a "every-day" stroller tho - is too bulky & heavy to be pulling in&out of the car multiple times a day or trying to wheel thru the mall. But for your carseat & outdoor/heavyduty stroller it cannot be beat for the price. After 14 months of use I am even happier w/ it than on the 1st day I used it.

4.0 out of 5 stars Stroller is great, carseat is ok, January 4, 2011

MI Mom - See all my reviews

This review is from: Baby Trend Expedition LX Travel System, Millennium (Baby Product)

I have had this travel system since 2007, and I have used it for both of my children.

Pros: the stroller is great! It fits through doors well, and the carseat snaps right in. We have taken it off road, in snow, over dirt, etc. which is why we got a jogging stroller not a regular one. As my son grew, he fits great, lots of storage, cupholders, etc. It was easy to put together (the stroller) and has not had any problems. I find it fits fine in my car or suv. The seat fits into a base, so getting it in and out is easy. It can use a regualr seatbelt if you are in another car, but it's kind of a pain. My kids outgrew it before I needed to turn it around, but you can easily rotate the base and make it forward facing if you need to after 1 year. I do like that it snaps easily into the base and into the stroller

Cons: I really dislike the carseat.The straps are VERY difficult to re-thread, which you must do all the time because you have to take them out to untangle the straps, which happens all the time. When you push the button to loosen the straps, it only loosens one side, and then you have to pull the other strap to even it out. Overall, I really dislike the carseat part of this system.
