3.0 out of 5 stars Love ALMOST everything April 6, 2011

By H. E. Q. Lane

I purchased this for our fourth child -- we had worn out our old stroller!

Here are the pros of this:

*Great color, subtle and gender-neutral, fashionable, but not too trendy
*LOVE the stroller -- it is light and easy to fold and unfold
*The basket under the stroller is a good size
*One-hand steering on the stroller! This is great!
*The stroller and seat are sturdy, good quality Graco

Here are the cons:

*Actually, there is only one con, but for me it has been a big one: The infant seat straps tighten separately and adjust at the back of the seat. Both of our older Graco SnugRides adjusted at the front of the seat with a single strap between the baby's legs. The back adjust does allow you to adjust each side more accurately, I suppose, but it requires two hands to do it right and takes more time (and time is of the essence when you have 4 kids!). It is also really difficult to loosen/tighten the straps when the seat is in the base in the car or set on the stroller, because you're at an awkward angle and there isn't a lot of clearance to pull down. I often carry my son in a sling in stores, etc. and getting him back in the seat is frustrating, especially when I am in a hurry and/or when it has been very cold and I am trying to get him in and the car door closed as quickly as possible.

If I had known the adjust on this was at the rear of the seat, I may have chosen a different travel system. Of course, it is our fault that we didn't get it ready until I was ready to leave the hospital with our new baby, but I never thought the design would be different than what it's always been. I have seen the front adjust on other new SnugRides, so I am not sure why this has the rear adjustment.

Whatever you choose for you -- congrats on your baby and enjoy him or her!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great travel system. January 30, 2010

We have only used this travel system for a couple of weeks, but we think this is a great buy. Easy to put together, easy to use, it may not be the most sophisticated system around, but it gets the job done. Beautiful too! The car seat base was very easy to install in our car, and the car seat snaps in and out very fast, and our baby girl is gets very comfortable in it. Same thing with the stroller, it may not be the lightest around, but it has enough space for our diaper bag, its easy to manuever, and when you fold it, it fits easily in a mid size car trunk. The only thing we have found is that the stroller's seat doesn't recline all the way to a horizontal position, it goes only 2/3 of the way.

2.0 out of 5 stars Bluegrass Blues for Baby #3 August 10, 2011

By B. G. Meiling

I was really excited about this product being so much cheaper than the Quattro series and still having the quality Graco Snugride carseat. Unfortunately, there are two features that made it a necessity to return.

One, the carseat is NOT front-adjust. That means every time the baby has a coat on or grows or the seasons change, someone has to get behind the carseat and change the straps manually. Ack! Thankfully we figured out this problem before we were sweating in the car at Christmas trying frantically to adjust a carseat running late on our way to Grandma's or something.

Second deal breaker for us is that the seat does not recline flat. The stroller is essentially useless to us without the carseat attached until our baby is out of infancy. This may not be an important feature for you, but it was vital to us and the way we use a stroller.

Other things to think about:

The print isn't that bad. It is much more bland than the picture online, but it's not horrible.
The collapsing of the stroller really is effortless. Although it's still big, heavy, and bulky, it does fold together very easily.
Also, the headrest is pretty poor. You'll definitely need to buy some additional sort of head or body support if you intend to use the carseat for an infant.
All in all, if it weren't for the seat recline and the back-adjust, I would've rated this system at least a 4. It's a great system if those things aren't important to you.
