I love my Orbit !!
My new arrival and I have been hitting the road in Orbit and loving it! The car seat is so solid and safe, and she sleeps really well in it. I take a daily 3 mile walk with the seat on the stroller base - I love being able to turn the seat so she's out of the sun or wind, and it's so easy to push and maneuver.
My husband and I are always competing to get to push...

the best stroller, only if it had more color options
The orbit is by far the best stroller on the market. Not only for it's superior design-it looks better then any other- but also by it's superior finishing, cushioning, structure and handling. and It's easier to set it up. It does not have the configuration type of going on two wheels for all terrain/beach purposes, like others do, but I find that very unnecessary. In the...

I love my Orbit !!, July 18, 2007
My new arrival and I have been hitting the road in Orbit and loving it! The car seat is so solid and safe, and she sleeps really well in it. I take a daily 3 mile walk with the seat on the stroller base - I love being able to turn the seat so she's out of the sun or wind, and it's so easy to push and maneuver.
My husband and I are always competing to get to push the stroller! And it's visually so striking - I never go out without many people stopping to comment on how cool it looks.
Lastly, as a petite woman, it's great to be able to handle all the gear one-handed. The one-handed folding mechanism means I can just throw the wheels in the trunk. In the car, I can put the baby in the seat, then turn it to face the back. It makes it so easy to get her in and out, and no back injuries from stretching into awkward positions.
And the pod is the greatest diaper bag around! holds everything including my purse. I will definitely get a toddler seat when she's big enough.

BEST CAR SEAT/STROLLER EVER! HANDS DOWN!!!, February 27, 2007
The Orbit Baby Stroller and Car Seat Combo is the best product available. I did extensive research on what to get and Orbit surpasses all the other strollers/car seats by far. It is the most functional of any stroller that I researched and "test drove."
Better than Bugaboo, Peg Perego, MacLaren, not just BETTER, the BEST. It is safe and secure for your little one - nice and "cozy wozy." The 360 degree spin feature makes getting in and out of the car a breeze and the one handed collapsible stroller feature makes life so much easier. As any parent can attest, the little things make such a difference, they make life so much easier, and the people at Orbit know this - they designed this stroller with babies and parents-using-one-hand-most-of-the-time, in mind.
I know it's pricey, but it is worth it. Why spend a few hundred on a car seat, another couple of hundred on a stroller and additional dollars on a diaper bag when you can buy the Orbit system that has it all! And with Orbit, you know that it all matches beautifully, is totally safe, and everything fits! And when your little one gets older, you can buy the Toddler Seat for a mere $150 and there's even a Bassinet with Rocker (!) for $229.
Everywhere I go, people comment on my stroller. Even people without children, okay? It is a serious headturner. But the most serious thing about Orbit stroller is that it's safe and lightweight. The fact that it's aesthetically pleasing, spins 360 degrees, has a cool "paparazzi shield" to block the sun, wind or rain, closes with one hand, comes with a diaper bag, can go over grass, gravel or sand, and is a car seat/stroller seat all in one is just the icing on the cupcake.
Look no further.
And NO, I do not work for the company :-)

It's functional, it's stylish, and it's the safest thing out there!, February 21, 2007
My favorite features of our Orbit are the singled-handed twist fold on the stroller, the 360-degree rotation and the cargo pod, but I'm just starting to appreciate how amazing the car seat itself is. Because of its versatility, convenience and style, there was no question that we were getting the Orbit so I never even looked at other car seats. Now that our daughter is born, I've been going to a weekly moms' group and I've had an opportunity to check out various alternative models. The Orbit car seat is by far superior to anything else out there. I get comments from other moms all the time about how safe my car seat looks, how easy it is to load, and how much my baby seems to like being in it. Other babies protest and cry when they're being bundled into their car seats, but Carson calms right down the minute she's enveloped in the sanctuary of her Orbit. On the rare occasions when she does fuss, I can rock it easily with my foot or swing it back and forth using the soft, comfortable handle.

Worth the money, June 1, 2008
We don't have a car and live in an urban area. We needed a stroller that would be easy to use on subways and buses. We looked at lots of them and we are so happy this is the one we chose. It's so easy to put up and down, the 360 rotation is incredibly useful, and it's narrow enough to roll down the aisles of buses and subways where other people struggle with their wider bulky strollers. It's light and easy to carry. And it looks great. People stop us all the time to ask us about it. Highly recommend this even though it's expensive - it's totally worth it.

great system for the techy dad, October 2, 2009
This review is from: Orbit Infant System - Mocha (Baby Product)
My daughter was born a preemie so she had to be tested in the car seat for 45 minutes before we could take her home. My daughter, only 5 lbs at the time, passed with flying colors. The nurses at the hospital said my orbit was the first they had ever seen, and mentioned that, with the newborn headrest, it worked great with small babies. My daughter cried for a minute or two then fell asleep for the rest of test with no sign of distress.
Now my daughter is 1 and she loves her orbit, it has grown with her perfectly. We constantly get compliments on our stroller system, it's definitely an eye catcher. My wife and I got the entire system including the bassinet, and the rocker. We love the fact that the bassinet and car seat dock into all parts (stroller, car docking, rocking base). The fact that the seat can rotate in the base is absolutely great! I've used other car seats in the past, and the orbit system is so convenient because you can rotate the car seat to face you to strap the baby in. I take my daughter and the family dog for a walk to the park, if the sun is in her eyes and the sun shade won't block the sun, all I need to do is rotate the seat in the base. You can also pull the stroller right up to a table at a restaurant and rotate the seat to save space or keep the stroller out of the aisles.
The car docking base is so easy to install. I brought my base and car seat to the local police station to have them check out the install and certify correct installation before I brought my daughter home from the hospital. The officer told me that they had heard of this system but had never seen one before. He was astonished to see how easy it was to install and how stabile it seemed. It took him about 5 minutes to read the directions, uninstall the base and then re-install. I've had my brother and my mother both move the base and system to their cars for a day or a weekend and they were both able to install the complete system in minutes.
The customer service is also friendly and very helpful. When I picked up the stroller the rear tire was flat, I just called up customer service and they over nighted me a new tube and pump so I could start using my stroller immediately. There are so many other features to talk about, but not enough time to type it all out. Definitely a great system!

NO COMPARISON, November 11, 2008
This is the best stroller and carseat combo. So many of my friends warned me about purchasing a carseat stroller combo because of the bulk of most systems, but this is the exception. Not only is the carseat and stroller lightweight but the stroller folds up pretty small and easily fits in my trunk with plenty of room to spare. A busy mom will appreciate the flexible handle of the carseat and ease of the swivel feature when you have you hands full with other kids, groceries, etc.
The only downside is it is long and does require the front seat to be pushed forward making it almost unusable. I have an E class mercedes. But if another adult needs to be in the car they just sit in back, which no one minds sitting with the baby.
I would recommend this seat to everyone. My child loves being in this seat, he hates being in his other carseat in dad's car, making it easy to get him to fall asleep on a car ride! You really can not fully appreciate the system until you use it on a daily basis.

This product is amazing!, August 12, 2008
This review is from: Orbit Infant System - Mocha (Baby Product)
This stroller system is amazing and we get comments on it everywhere we go. The seat is on a circle so it spins completely around, letting you put the baby easily into the car and turning them securly into the rear facing system. The stroller is great too. It's lightweight and folds up easily. Plus you can face the baby in any direction - towards you or forward OR, for when you are at a restaurant you can pull them right up to the table with you. It's so easy to use and sturdy. Another plus is that the handle is not plastic which makes it easier to carry. It is heavy though but so worth it especially because I feel my baby is really safe in this seat. She's very far down (the sides come up high). Bonus, the sun shade is a great size. There's even a paparrazzi shield that covers the seat completely. And the bag that attaches to the bottom stays out of your way but holds a lot of stuff.

this stroller rocks!!!, January 27, 2008
I am a new Mom...so I researched and researched before the big buy...all of my friends swear by the bugaboo....they are all very jealous of my Orbit. People stop me on the street to tell me how "cool" it is and I can't help but give a demonstration of what that stroller will do. It makes life so much easier with a baby! The paparazzi shield is the best and I couldn't live without the smart hub and the convenient way the seat rotates...makes getting in and out of the car so much easier. I love the diaper bag down below, very convenient. The stroller base is truly one handed closure. Love love love this stroller system!!!

Loveeeee our Orbit Baby, August 18, 2010
This review is from: Orbit Infant System - Mocha (Baby Product)
By far, purchasing an Orbit Baby is the best investment I've put into my daughter. The stroller is absolutely beautiful, especially in MOCHA. The 360 rotation has been so convenient on windy/rainy days & the cargo pod eliminates the need for a diaper bag. I live in a two story apartment so it is a big heavy to lug up & down the stairs- minor drawback. I've been nothing but happy with this product..
ORBIT BABY IS WORTH EVERY PENNY (=!

Orbit system review, December 14, 2009
This review is from: Orbit Infant System - Mocha (Baby Product)
This stroller system is absolutely amazing. In my opinion, it far exceeds the other strollers on the market such as the bugaboo and makes life so much easier for traveling and even day-to-day activities. Its very user-friendly. This the only stroller that rotates making it easier on your back for retreiving your child from the car seat out of the back seat. Also, if you are at a restaurant, the child can sit in the stroller and be rotated in the stroller making it convenient to fit next to the table. Both my sister and I own this stroller system and we couldn't be more thrilled. Also, I must comment on the customer service of this company. Orbit baby has incredible customer relations - they are so courteous, respectful, prompt and really care about their customers. Overall, my husband and I are so happy with this product - and we have all of their products: toddler car seat and stroller seat, bassinet, and infant seat. Would recommend to everyone!
