4.0 out of 5 stars Pretty Neat Stroller Frame..., December 27, 2006

By	elviswoman (Dallas, TX United States) - See all my reviews

I have a Graco Snug Ride II carseat...I selected this stroller frame because I had a gift certificate that covered the cost of it so it would be free.

Upon assembly, we attempted to attach the car seat to the stroller frame. The instructions made it look like the back part of the car seat should snap onto the frame. Our car seat does not.

Called customer service, got a prompt friendly associate on the phone who informed me that Graco Snugride II will not snap onto this frame, but that the safety strap should adequately secure the seat to the frame.

So for that, I take away one star.

However, the other four stars are well deserved. Here's why:
1. It fits in the trunk of my Honda Civic with room to spare.
2. It is lightweight.
3. You truly CAN open and close it with one hand, LOVE THIS!!
4. The ride is SMOOTH regardless of terrain.
5. The handle is just right for a 5 ft 2 mom. No back strain or arm tiredness from improper height.
6. The basket on the bottom is SPACIOUS and easy to access. Big ole diaper bag and Mom's purse fit nicely.
7. The parent tray is spacious and holds keys.

As for a recommendation, I am on the fence. I would prefer for the seat to snap onto the frame, this still bothers me. However, all the other features are important and work well for this product, including availability of customer service to quickly answer questions. So I would say I am 51% leaning towards a "Would Recommend" for the Kolcraft Universal Car Seat Carrier...

5.0 out of 5 stars Easier to use than a travel system, May 6, 2006

By	beaky's mom - See all my reviews

I have used this stroller for 8 months now and have no complaints about it. I used a travel system with my first baby which was so heavy and cumbersome that for baby no. 2 I felt it was worth spending the $60 on a car seat carrier. This is also the 4th stroller I've purchased, and by far the best design! This stroller:
-steers easily with one hand. I can hold my older child's hand and push and maneuver the stroller at the same time.
-has a HUGE basket underneath - bigger than most strollers I've seen and used.
-has a parent tray with 2 cupholders, and room to place car keys, cell phone, and wallet
-really does fold with one hand - with brakes on it folds down very easily. Secure the latch and toss it in the car.

These are not issues for me but might be for you - it's not that compact when folded (I drive a minivan) and it's not as light as say, an umbrella stroller. Since the car seat doesn't click into anything, you have to secure the straps before moving which I've forgotten to do. You also have to undo the straps to get the baby out of the seat (which is why it's easy to forget to resecure them.) I notice the one they are selling here has bright red straps which might help with remembering this.

I will be sorry to give this stroller up when my baby outgrows her car seat!

1.0 out of 5 stars WARNING: Universal does not mean Universal, December 12, 2006

By	Andrew P. Romanelli "andyr67" (New York) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

According to the manufacturer, this car seat carrier is NOT compatible with thousands of infant car seats on the market despite the clearly misleading name "Universal". I bought the top rated infant car seat by Britax and then this carrier based on the box which said compatible with Britax. After reviewing the instructions, I found it was not compatible with this and many other infant car seats.
