- I like this travel system!
It is true that with an infant reclined it
is difficult to use the basket, but that isn't
a problem when the seat is pushed upward.
I can close, open, and put the stoller into
the car trunk with one hand. The issues with
the lock tight latch being hard to remove
from the base is a comfort for me as I know
the seat won't pop out like some others I've
used.
The hood on the car seat and the hood on
the stoller close together keep baby protected
in strong wind or light rain and snow.

- Not so bad, Not the greatest either!
I brought this stroller mainly do to it's
lightweight and easy one-hand folding feature.
It is also free standing when folded which
is a plus. However, the reclining cord is
a pain especially when the baby is in the
stroller and needs to sit up, you always need
to two hands for this feature. Second the
basket is TOTALLY not accessible from any
angle when the car seat is being used or when
it's fully reclined. So I ask what is the
point of the basket if you can not use it
with ease? I have had to remove the car seat
in order to put stuff in and out of the basket
and anyone with kids knows you has the time
for the that. It is a BIG inconvenience! I've
seen some other strollers also by Graco that
are similiar and the basket is accessible
but they weigh more and do not fold as flat.
I have back trouble and need a light stroller
to lift into my jeep but I do not like to
lift my baby everytime I need to access something
in the basket. Unfortunately, I probably can't
return it now.

The positive:
1. This stroller will glide over any terrain,
over the curb, grass, and any other surface
you may encounter.
2. The stroller is very easy to steer &
makes smooth turns.
3. It's extraordinary light so it's possible
to even go up and down the stairs.
Now the negatives:
1. Because it is so light the stroller may
start rolling away from a slight breeze
if you let go of it for a second
2. The basket underneath is completely inaccessible
unless the baby is reclined up (which you
can't to until they are older) so be prepared
to hold that diper bag.
3. The carrier/car-seat piece is probably
as heavy by itself as the rest of the stroller.
4. And for my biggest gripe: the carrier
holding bar doesn't have one of those side
grasps that make it SO much easier to carry
when the baby is inside. So when you have
to get the carrier from the stroller to
the car it constantly hits your leg. Ouch.
All things considered this travel system
will probably please you most if you will
be dragging the stroller part around a lot
(like up and down stairs, etc). But if you
will be mainly using the carrier/car-seat
part you will probably find more faults
then you want.
