While I was pregnant I must have spent hours mulling over what car seat and stroller we were going to select for our baby registry. I ended up choosing the Windsor Snug Ride and the Windsor stroller. Both have excellent safety ratings and they look GORGEOUS. I love them. However, the stroller is pretty darn HUGE. It is fantastic but just too big for quick jaunts into the bookstore or local starbucks. My windsor stroller is like a PRODUCTION.

I (like many women) ended up having a c-section. Lifting my huge stroller out of the car just wasn't happening. Our big beautiful stroller is now in our van to use with my husband for major events.

THEN I FOUND THE SNUGRIDER CAR FRAME. It should be called FREEDOM IN YOUR TRUNK. It's a wonderful contraption and I am going to tell you exactly why:

1. It's VERY light. I lift it easily with one hand.

2. It fits easily in a small trunk. I drive a Mazda 626 and I fit the frame AND still have room.

3. It pops open easily -- important when it's raining or your baby is howling.

4. It is MADE for the snugride and also fits the new saferide. It is EXTREMELY secure. I didn't feel the same about the Snap-n-Go when I tested it at the store. I like that this is made for the car seat I use.

5. It has a nice large basket. (and I can access it even with the babyseat inside of it.)

6. It has a cup holder. Okay, it is a little small -- but it easily holds a medium and we shouldn't drink so much soda pop anyhow.

7. It is small and fits fantastically through tight store aisles and spaces.

8. It has locks for the front wheels in case you don't want them to swivel. It is easy to handle.

9. It collapses with great ease... sort of like a folding chair but has safety features built in to keep it from endangering your baby.


This seat has given me so much freedom. It is nothing to whip it out and take the baby anywhere. I even have used it in cafes and coffeeshops to hold the carrier rather than using their slings or the booth. It's so small that it's welcome everywhere and sure saves my back from constantly carrying the carrier.

I love it so much that I am sure to buy the saferider rather than the convertible seat I was going to buy for the next stage. While lugging thirty pounds seems impossible... it is easily done with this fantastic contraption.

I can't say enough good things about this product. It truly is a must-have for me. It has given me so much freedom back.

We bought this even though we have a big stroller/car seat combo. So why spend the extra money? The SnugRider is very light and doesn't take up as much room, so I can just leave it folded up in the back of our small car. It's also narrower than the big stroller, so it's easier to negotiate the aisles of crowded stores, etc. It's also great for those times when you have to "park in the ramp" and then lug the baby in the carseat through the elevator and skywalks or wherever until you get to a place with a shopping cart. (With the SnugRider you can still use a shopping cart - just fold it up and pop it in the cart.)

The carseat snaps on easily and it feels very stable and secure. The other great thing is the height-adjustable handle. We are not tall people (5'5" and 5'8"), but we always had trouble with our older son's umbrella stroller - the handles are just a bit too low and caused lower back pain when we'd use it for long periods of time (like at the zoo). [What in the world do tall people do?!] The SnugRider is just the right height and the cushioned handles are comfortable.

It took us awhile to get the hang of *quickly* opening and folding it, but once we realized that it folds up very much like a standard lawn chair, it was easy. That's important when it's freezing and you don't want to stand there with the hatch of your car open for long periods of time.

The only complaint I have is that the cupholder is too small in diameter. (Let's face it, this is America and we have very large beverages with us at all times.) I also wish it had a seat that could snap in when the child gets older so that it could be used like an umbrella stroller.

Just bought this infant car seat carrier from Babies R Us.The assembly was very easy.Since this carrier is for Snugride and Safeseat car seat only,there are no extra bars or straps that need to be adjusted by parents. So we put the snugride right in. It locks into the carrier at three places--very secure,very easy. I have to say that two of the latches that attach the car seat to the frame are hard to release(turn) after they are locked. This maybe because it is brandnew. It is really not a problem.

I also like that it stands after it is folded. So we can put it right into our car. It is really light and has a bigger basket than Snap-N-Go's. I noticed that even with the Snugride infant car seat in place, it is very easy for me to access the basket below. Oh, it is better-looking than Snap-N-Go and Kolcraft's Universal car seat frame too.

Both my husband and I are happy with this purchase. If you are buying a Snugride or a Safeseat infant car seat, definitely go with this carrier insead of other So-called "universal fit" ones.

This "snap-on" carseat frame is the best for the money (or maybe any money!). Our 5 month old baby is growing out of it and we are having a hard time finding a stroller that can replace it. The storage basket is huge and you get used to the easy access and volume. Easy to fold and a great space saver in small cars. We've taking it to gravel roads and muddy trails and works great. The only down side on this, is the snap-on cup holders that can be deeper.

After much debate on wether or not we needed this frame, we opted to buy it. I am so glad we did. It has turned out to be a really great buy. I live in NYC and walk a lot and dont have a car.But by being able to snap the car seat in the frame, I have the option to walk and/or take a cab to the store and not have a big travel system with me. The only draw back is the access to the basket. It has a VERY large basket but it takes some work getting used to craming things in or you have to remove the car seat. What I found worked for me was to put the diaper bag in so its facing out, and if I need to get something, rather than take the whole bag out I just unzip and take out what I need. When I first brought it home I thought I was going to have a problem opening it. The lock was very tight and almost wouldn't open. but after using it a few times it loosened up and now its a breeze! This is the only stroller I have used for the last 2.5-3 months and its holding up great! I have to admit I probablly load it way to heavy with groceries and it has taken the weight . I'm going to miss this frame when my daughter out grows the snug ride. I would highly recomend it!

This stroller was a lifesaver for me, as the stroller that came in the travel system does not fit into my trunk. This stroller is a snap to put together, very light, and very easy to use. I love the compact design, as it is so easy to maneuver in places that you would not normally be able to take a stroller. My husband and I have taken our son into a few restaurants with this stroller and it fits fine at the dining table in place of a high chair, which our son is not big enough to use yet. The only complaint I have is that the cupholders are not nearly big enough. They do, however, hold keys and my cell phone. I will miss this convenient stroller when my son outgrows his infant carseat!

While watching my friend lug her whole travel system out of her trunk, I can pop this baby open with one hand. It's a great product, very maneuverable and light with an excellent basket underneath for all that baby stuff. One drawback: the cup holder is small and shallow - won't hold a thermal mug, but holds a standard styrofoam coffee cup.

We purchased this stroller frame to fit our Graco Safe Seat, instead of purchasing a Graco travel system or even a standard stroller.
PROS:
1) Carseat snaps easily into frame and has 2 clips to lock seat in place.
2) Lightweight. It's a breeze to pull in and out of the trunk of my car.
3) Not bulky like travel system strollers.
4) Offers a smooth ride. We take it on all our public outings including walks in our neighborhood. It performs well on sidewalks and paved surfaces.
5) Folds upright instead of folding onto the ground, which prevents stratching of the frame.
6) Adjustable handle bar.
7) 2 cup holders - I use one to hold my car keys and the other to hold a pacifier.
8) Large basket.

CONS:
1) Slightly challenging to fold in the beginning, but once you get the hang of it, it's fairly easy. Folding requires that you simultaniously press a button and twist handle on the handle bar with one hand while pulling the front of the frame towards you. That being said, even my mother with arthritic thumbs was able to fold stroller on her own.
2) The basket is a bit difficult to access. We end up undoing the 2 front clips and tilting the carseat in order to access hard to reach items.

Overall I love this stroller. Highly recommended instead of a travel system.

I had my daughter in Feb and had recieved the Laura Ashely travel system as a baby shower gift, but the stroller was a bit heavy. So the day after getting out of the hospital i went to BRU and bought this Graco Snap n Go.I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!It is so comfortable to push(you can even push with one hand), has a great basket(can do quick grocery shooping with it) and folds fast and easy. Fits great in the trunk. This snap and go should be a major neccesity like a car seat crib or diapers. This will be the one thing i will NOT give away[just in case ;)].

I love this infant car seat stroller. It is one of the best things I bought for my infant. It is so lightweight and durable. Great for everyday outings and airline travel (was wonderful to have for my trip to CA). I like that I don't have to disturb my infant, especially after he has fallen asleep in the car. He can continue his snooze while I take care of my errands. The storage basket is huge. Grocery clerks are always amazed at how much groceries I pull from my stroller. I had even put a 40 lb cat litter pail on the bottom and it did fine. Another feature that I liked about this stroller is the adjustable handle bar. I am 5 ft tall and it was nice to be able to have the handle bar at a level that was perfect for me. The only downfall for this stroller is that it is really not meant for tall people. My husband being 6 ft tall would constantly hit the bottom rail when he would walk. Also I used the stroller for my Chicco Keyfit carseat, which you are not suppose to, but I just made sure I was extra careful since I had no way of locking it in. Hopefully, Graco will upgrade their stroller to have some type of locking mechanism for other carseats, since I find this better than the baby trend version that is universal. I am sad that I will have to retire this stroller since my son is now 8 months, and is able to sit himself up, and pull up on the handlebar. Definitely recommend this stroller if you are looking for a lightweight stroller that is inexpensive, and if you need more time in deciding on a long term stroller. Hope this review helps. Happy strolling :).

My husband and I both like this stroller. We've heard mixed reviews of Graco's full-size strollers, so we didn't want to buy a travel system. But with SnugRide known as the safest infant seat, I looked for other options. Admittedly, without practice, unfolding and folding is a bit difficult, but when the foot pad on the back of the basket is used, it's really not too bad. Also, if you put anything too big into the basket, it won't come back out witout tilting the car seat up. That said, the car seat fits in perfectly. The handle is very comfortable and adjusts easily even for shorter people. For us, it is worth some of the hassle to have this light-weight, compact solution.

We recently bought the Duoglider travel system for use with our soon-to-arrive baby and our now-3-year-old son. We have an umbrella stroller for those times that my husband or I might have the baby in a sling and our 3 year old is tired. We didn't think about the opposite -- our son wanting to run or walk with us and the baby needing to ride until we went to Babies R Us and saw this stroller frame. Not only is it easy to assemble and use, but the car seat snaps in securely and it can be steered with just one hand -- VERY important if you're carrying a shopping bag or holding another child by the hand. It folds very easily and it's very light, too. Plus, the handles adjust depending on the height of the adult pushing the stroller. The paperwork says it accepts all Graco car seats, but if you have a model older than the SnugRide car seat, I'd check in a store first.

I bought this stroller in the fall for my infant son. It is as easy to use as they say, truly one handed operation. One of the best things about it is it's so light-weight. That is one of the reasons I wanted it. My regular stroller is so heavy!

If I had to list any draw backs, I would say that there are no shocks on this stroller. These days the fancy ones have wonderful shocks that absorb all the bumps that come along. This one does not have that.

I would not let that stop you from buying it. I love it and will be sad when he out grows his infant seat and can't use it anymore.

I got this to go with the Graco carseat and I have had no need to buy any other stroller so far. It's extremely light but perfectly sturdy and very maneuverable. The basket is big enough for a light grocery run and it's accessible enough that I can get to the diaper bag I stash there. The only drawback to it is it doesn't have a space for a bag to hang on; but since the basket is pretty accessible it's no big deal.

This is a great stroller frame for the Graco snugride carseat! It was very simple to assemble. It handles well everywhere except for gravel driveways. It very user friendly - easy to adjust height, remove carseat from, and collapse.

I was online looking for the next stage carseat also hoping I could continue using the the Snugrider. We used the snugrider everyday. It was so convienent transporting the baby from the car to the stroller. We used it everywhere. We walked around the neighborhood with it, used it in the mall, it was small enough to manage in restruants, anywhere. Especially when the baby got heavier, it made taking him in and out even for a minute to a convienent store easier than carring him. It is actually the most useful baby product I have. My son is 16 lb. and 26 in, I should be moving him into a bigger carseat but I think I will wait until he reaches 20lbs. I don't want to give up the snugrider. It will be such a pain to remove him from the car seat and put him into a regular umbrella stroller. Love this item!!! Can't say enough. I have bought it for everyone of my friends as baby shower gift. My son is 7 months and we used it everyday. It is not expensive and is worth every penny. Love it!!

I got the car seat frame instead of a full stroller/travel system, as I drive a smaller car and live in an urban area. Although I was initially skeptical, after three months of intense indoor and outdoor use, I can say that I'm very pleased with this product. You and baby can easily navigate the aisles of the grocery store or the sidewalks of your neighborhood.

I gave this product four stars instead of five because the frame is a little difficult to collapse.

Absolutely love this product! I had purchased the Snugride Car Seat before my baby was born and was retro fitting it into another high end stroller. It fit ok, but not as well as the frame. I purchased the frame when my daughter was 6 months old to use on a plane/trip. Immediately fell in love with it. The car seat fits perfectly (obviously), the bottom basket is huge! The handle is ADJUSTABLE so my husband and I can easily change it for our varying heights. It comes with two cup holders that easily snap on and stay on. And it is incredibly light. The only reason I cannot give it a 5 is because you have to lock the front wheels before you can fold up the frame and they sometimes unlock on their own. But for the price, I'll live with it.

I'm so glad we elected to do the baby bucket + stroller base frame rather than one of those full-metal stroller systems. For one thing, the frame is a lot lighter and easier to fold and get in and out of a trunk -- a LOT easier. Also, by the time my son reached the age when the bucket + frame no longer worked for us, we had come to realize that the kind of stroller we wanted was a lightweight umbrella-style stroller, NOT one of those massive things that come as part of a stroller-carseat-base system.
br /
br /My only quibble with this frame is that it didn't quite stand up to the huge strain we put on it. My son needed to be pushed back and forth for hours at a time in order to sleep when he was a newborn, and so the beating this frame took was probably miles more than it was designed for. It started to squeak and became a little wobbly, such that my husband had to keep spraying lubricant and tightening bolts to keep it quiet enough not to wake the boy up and sturdy enough that we didn't worry about it falling to bits.
br /
br /For normal use, though, I'm sure it would be just fine.

I have been using this stroller frame every day since our baby was born 6 months ago and I love it! It's lightweight, compact, and folds easily. It has a huge basket for storage. It's really good if you drive everywhere and need something compact to get in and out of your car. It maneuvers extremely well when you are indoors. Moms who have travel systems are always asking me about this frame because they wished they also had one instead of their bulky stroller + car seat combination.
br /
br /The reasons I didn't give it a 5-star rating is:
br /- When I opened the box, both of the front wheels were warped. However, I contacted Graco and they replaced them free of charge within a few weeks.
br /- The wheels are made of hard plastic and have no suspension so your baby is in for a bumpy ride if you are out on the sidewalk. I would recommend that if you do a lot of walking outdoors, you should get something with better wheels and suspension. But you should still get this frame for walking indoors because it's the best 50 bucks you'll spend.
br /
br /All in all, I'm sad that I won't be able to use this stroller frame once my baby grows out of his car seat in a couple of months.

This is great stroller for the car seat! Easy to use. The car seat easily snaps into place and they are additional safety holders on the sides of the stroller frame. Once in use, it is easy to push and manuver. It collapses very easily and can fit easily into the trunk of the car. The bag at bottom is great and holds a fair share of items when shopping. The cup holders are fine, - they could be deeper. Overall this a great buy and makes like easier with the heavy snug ride car seat. One additional caveat - this is not good on stairs up or down.

I was so sad when my son outgrew the infant seat and this stroller got put away. It was such a great size, easy to use and had just enough features. I loved being able to pop the carseat right out of the car and snap it into this light weight stroller. This is way better than the travel system strollers, much faster to use and lighter!

A friend of mine gave me a Graco carseat, so I did not have a "stroller system." I purchased the stroller frame instead, and it has been wonderful. It's lightweight, and easy to store in my trunk. I use it for shopping, powerwalking, and even strolls on the beach. I highly recommend it!

Perfect for the car, does well in stores and even on short neighborhood strolls (half hour to an hour). Lightweight, compact and easy to use. The car seat frame is a workhorse, nothing fancy. Well-made and highly recommended, by this mother of a 3month old, as a first stroller. We will move on to a jogger at six months of age when a child can safely be put in a jogger.
M...

You have to have this when you're running around, doing errands, etc. It is lightweight, sturdy, compact, easy to maneuver, fold, and store. It has enough room in the lower basket to throw a few things in when you need to a quick trip to the grocery store. Takes up very little room in the car, it folds flat. After having a c-section, my "light weight" stroller that went with my car seat was still too heavy, and akward to open/close; I barely even used it until my daughter was able to sit up on her own, because the car seat frame was so convenient. Just make sure you secure the front wheels before folding so they don't get caught up and make it difficult to unfold when you're ready to use it again.

My husband and I tried out a lot of strollers in the store, including some of the "travel systems" with matching stroller and carset. While those look nice, we found them to be heavy, bulky and difficult to manuever around tight corners. Then we tried the Graco SnugRider.
We love it!!! It is lightweight, turns tight corners, and is extremely stable. My nervous dad (first-time grandfather) even made the comment on a walk one day "You can't turn this thing over if you tried!". And he's right, it's very stable on uneven surfaces. I also love the deep storage underneath where the carseat sits, and it's easy to drop things down there even with the carseat sitting on top.
Closing and opening the stroller is super-fast and simple. My only complaint is the round cupholder doesn't hold a large-sized water bottle, or larger soda cup, but despite that, I still think it's the perfect stroller.

My family lives in a very big city, and we wanted a light weight option for transporting my infant around with us via taxi, subway or just walking. After researching all the options that are out there, and there are a lot, we decided to go with this. Here's what we like about it:
br /
br /- Obviously, we feel that it is very portable and light weight making it easy to get around with.
br /
br /- I don't have to transfer my son from his car seat to a stroller, he's all ready to go.
br /
br /- The car seat snaps into the frame securly and easily. There is no doubt as to whether you've got the seat in there right. I'm even able to do this one handed and I'm a small women and a giant clutz.
br /
br /- It has breaks on the wheels so my little guy doesn't roll away on me as I'm loading groceries into my car.
br /
br /- The basket under the seat is HUGE. It fits my diaper bag and more without a problem. Possibly allows for more storage then the overhead bins on an airplane.
br /
br /- It folds down easily and locks shut so it doesn't flap wildly while you try and jam it in your trunk or closet at home.
br /
br /- The cup holders come off for easy cleaning. That said, the cup holders come off easily. Be warned.
br /
br /I feel that for the price, you can't beat this stroller. It may not be the most flashy, over the top, my-stroller-is-better-then-yours, but it really does the job. If you are one to get "stroller envy" when you see another mommy at the pediatrician with a "better" stroller, this isn't for you. But if you are a mom who just wants the job to get done and get it done well, I highly recommend getting just the frame and calling it a day.

A friend recommended this to us. We bought the graco travel system, but this stroller is great to have when you are making a quick run to the mall or running an errand. The car seat snaps right in so traveling is a breeze. Plus the one hand fold makes it easy to fold and it takes up less space then the full size stroller.

This is an excellent stroller. I received this stroller as a gift for my baby shower almost 3years ago. After my daughter outgrew her carseat, I passed it on to my friend who was pregnant. She used it for a good 7-8 months with her baby, and then passed it back to me when I was expecting my second child. I have now been using it with my second child for 6 months and it is still in excellent shape! I can't live with out it! It is lightweight, easy to open, fold, and store. The carseat snaps in very easinly and won't come off until the release is pressed. It is an excellent first stroller. I never bouhgt a travel system and don't regret it at all. This stroller filled every need for the first 6-7 mos. of both my kids lives...Thanks Graco!

I found that this product is a little difficult to unfold, the wheels get stuck together and they need to be pulled apart. I owned another model with my first born and found it a joy to use, but decided on this brand when I purchased a Graco car seat for out latest addition. If I had it to do again I would not make the same decision.

I love this Infant Carseat Frame because it's lightweight & quick and easy to use. The only down side is that once your baby is out of the infant car seat you can not use the SnugRider anymore.It is definately worth the money.

We did a lot of research when shopping for a stroller. I knew that I did not want a big bulky travel system. I thought I was going to register for the snap and go frmae, but when I tested it out in the store with a graco snugride car seat it seemed loose, not really very secure. We tried the snugrider car seat frame and it was awesome.

The only 2 drawbacks I have found is the only canopy you have is on the carseat itself. With the travel systems you can pull the carseat's canopy up and the stroller's canopy up shielding your baby from the sun. Also I wish that it folded more square. It folds flat, but takes up a lot of room in your trunk. It has a large mesh storage area, but it you load it like I do it's sometimes hard to get to your stuff witht he carseat on top.

Is great for getting through narrow aisles when shopping. Overall a great product. If had to buy again i would compare to the new Graco Mosaic stroller. I think it's probably a better but as you don't have to get a second stroller for when they outgrow their infant carseat.

The stroller worked well with our Graco SnugRides (we had both an older and newer seat, ~00 and 04 models, and they both worked fine with the stroller frame). It was simple to fold and unfold, not heavy, and packed nicely into the back of my compact SUV. We also could fit the folded stroller in my husbands VW Beetle trunk. It did just fine rolling over all manner of terrain -- we would take it on dirt and gravel trails, sometimes rolling it through tall unkempt grassy areas, without any difficulty or ruining anything on the stroller. I have to say it must be really well-made for the abuse we put it through! The two drawbacks were the difficulty getting into the basket with the seat on and the fact that the stroller use is limited by how long your baby will be in the infant car seat. My kid is outgrowing the car seat now at 8 months, so the stroller is getting put in storage with the seats...

We were flip flopping between the snap n go and the snugrider frame. We finally decided on the snugrider frame cause we thought it looked better and stronger. After I put it together and read the directions to fold it, I realized that you have to have the front wheels lined up a certain way in order for the frame to fold down completely. At first I didn't think it would be that big of a deal, then later I realized, it's kind of a hassle. You just want to twist the handle and fold, but it's not closing all the way. You realize that you have to line up the front wheels and push up that red clip. At the same time dirtying your hands. Unless the wheels are facing forward already, you have to turn the wheels with your hands then lock them in place. Other than that, I love the convenience and weight of the frame. I just wish they can adjust the design so you don't have to lock the front wheels.

The basket on the bottom is a great size. It holds my large diaper bag, or items from when I go shopping. I don't use a shopping cart most of the time. And if I need the space on the bottom, I tilt the handle and hang my diaper bag on it instead. Worth the price for a slight inconvenience.

This item is quite good, but the cupholder tends to fall off at the drop of a hat and the plastic piece that secures the child car seat seems to bend quite easily. We use it a lot, but wish it were a little heavier duty.

Although we have a baby trend car seat we decided on the Graco because it seemed to be a better fit. The stroller frame doesn't give the smoothest ride but it is super convenient. We keep it in the boot of the car and use it for 90% of our shopping trips (much easier than trying to get baby out of his carseat and into a stroller every time). The storage basket underneath has plenty of room for groceries or shopping items and is much easier to navigate around stores than a traditional shopping cart. When taking the baby on short plane trips we just take the car seat and stroller frame instead of a stroller. Most of the time the airline allows us to take the seat on board the plane if there's a spare seat and the stroller frame can withstand the abuse from the baggage handlers (we have had other strollers that have been completely destroyed after being gate checked!). This means we can use the car seat with hire cars and still have the flexibility of a stroller to get around. I would have given this stroller frame 5 stars if the ride was a bit smoother, but for the price you should definitely add this to your baby shower registry!

This is the best infat seat carrier by far. We first had one by Baby Trend but the buckle broke after about 1 month of use. It was also a bit difficult to try and make the seat attach to the base with the strap. Next, we bought one by Kolcraft but after about two months of use the wheels became very wobbly and unstable. We were preparing to fly with the baby across country, so we decided to try the Graco version and hope for the best. This is the best infant seat carrier by far. The seat attaches very securely to the base and I never had to worry about the car seat coming loose. It still works very well, so we will be using it when the next baby comes. My only regret is that my 21 pound/28 inch 9-month-old outgrew it so fast!

When I was pregnant, we were so busy that we didn't even get a stroller. After I gave birth, I carried our daugther in a Baby Bjorn sling for two months, but she started to get too heavy. So, we started looking into which strollers are best and light. I really wanted the Bugaboo, but my husband talked me out of it. We went stroller shopping and found the frame for our Graco Snug Ride Car Seat. I tried it out and fell it love with it. We bought it right away, and assembled it at the store so we could do more shopping. I am so glad I didn't get any other stroller. Everything is looks so big and tacky. The SnugRider carseat frame is really practical and so easy to maneauver. I LOVE IT!!! The best part it, it's super cheap!! My daughter is now 4 months old and she loves taking a stroll in it. :)

I have to say I went back and forth trying to decide if I should spend the $60.00 on this stroller when I already had a Metro Lite stroller. Well after a shopping trip to the mall using my metro lite as a travel system I broke down and bought it. It was the best choice I have made. I was so tired of not being able to get to the diaper bag in the basket with the seat of my Metro Lite reclined (I have an older model and you can't drop the basket down to get to your stuff). I would have to take the car seat out put it on the floor and then raise the back of the seat up to get to my stuff and when you have a sleeping baby you know this is the last thing you want to do. So I bought this stroller and have very easy access to the basket. I love the cup holders and it is very light and compact. Thanks Graco!!

For anyone thinking about putting money into a car seat frame, buying the new Graco Safeseat will pretty much extend the life of your carseat frame for an entire year. The combo goes great together and since the Safeseat is also made by Graco the two are a perfect fit. The Safeseat has all the safety features of the Snugrider with the added benefit of a longer life as an infant carrier. It costs a little more, but is well worth the investment, I would recommend this to any expecting parent.

I couldn't fit the large stroller in my small car, Vitara. This fits perfect in the back, was easy to use, and very stable. It actually is much more convenient to use as it is very light weight and easy to open and close. We now prefer to use this stroller to the big bulky one. It handles better and is much easier to navigate in crowds. I don't recommend may items, but this one is tops!!!!

This stroller is one of the most amazing products I've ever purchased. I am so impressed with its design. We own the Graco SafeSeat carrier (Graco Safe Seat Step 1 Infant Car Seat Ionic) and it connects flawlessly with this stroller frame. It's lightweight - my wife has no problems loading/unloading it from her vehicle. The stroller glides effortlessly and can navigate tight spaces with ease. I've never written a product review before now but because I feel so strongly about this stroller, I just had to write. Believe me... you want this stroller to go with your Graco carrier!

So lightweight, easy to fold, easy to steer, incredibly sturdy and convenient! We're still using this at 10-months-old and probably will be for a few more months until my daughter switches to a convertible carseat. Fits perfectly with room to spare in the trunk of my Accord. The basket is even big enough for small grocery trips. I highly recommend this to all my new mom friends!

I am 8 months pregnant and I just recently bought and put together (in less than 10 mins) my SnugRider. I've been eyeing and testing this item since I was 5 months along into my pregnancy. I bought it because a travel system would be too bulky for me to push around. I read in an article for baby product magazine that travel systems' strollers are built bigger to compensate for the car seat riding on it. I didn't want to push that extra weight plus it would be like pushing a bed-on-wheels. This item seem to be the most convenient and comfortable to use and I was right. I put the car seat (Graco Snugride in Emerson) on it and it latched properly. I pushed it around with 2 bags of sugar in it to add weight and I was satisfied how it handles smoothly. Folding it up is such a breeze too! Also, it stands on its own so there is no need to bend down to pick it up. I'm happy with this product and can not wait to use it with my daughter.

we've be using this frame for 6.5 months now from the birth of the baby, no other stroller needed so far. just take the car seat out of the car, and put in on the frame, hear the snap, and off you go - shopping, walking, anything, so fast and convenient....IF you have a craco car seat, think no longer, this is the time and life saver. One more word about height adjisting handle, i don't know many strollers to have this feature, i'm 5.8, husband 6.2 and it worked well for both of us...there is also semiposition for smaller then average height...i can assure you won't regret this purchase. now, that we have outgrown the infant car seat, i'm so sad to part with this frame....

After much deliberation I decided to buy this frame for my second child. I had a Graco Snugride travel system with my first baby and knew that I wanted to use Graco again; however all the travel systems seemed so large and bulky. This is a great solution. It is so compact, very manuverable and very user friendly. The basket is large and easy to access. I've recommended it to everyone we know who is expecting.

Of course we will have to buy a new stroller once my daughter grows out of the infant seat, but that's not a problem as I'd like a more compact stroller than is available with a travel system.

This is a great product. I wish that I had purchased it instead of my big travel system. So easy. The only thing I don't like is that you have to lock the wheels when you close it up, meaning you have to unlock the wheels when you open it. Otherwise it is perfect!

We purchased this for a trip we were taking because we did not want to lug around our bigger stroller through the airport and at our destination. This was a GREAT purchase. I can't be more happy. It folds up quickly and fits through the security scanner at the airport. We have the graco safe seat and it pops in and out with ease. We have started using this stroller more than the $300 stroller we got because it is so convenient, especially for me because it is not heavy, and I have tendinitis in my wrist and it is so easy for me to handle this lighter stroller than a heavy one. Plus, it is great for shopping because the basket in the bottom is HUGE!! A lot bigger than the more expensive stroller we have.
br /I am very happy with this stroller and I would recommend it to everyone wanting something easy to travel with through an airport and for everyday use.

Shipping was fast I was impressed with how easy it was to set up. I no longer need the bulky stroller I had, because this one is pretty compact. It fits easy in the trunk is pretty light weight. I would definitely buy again!

I love the Graco snug-rider stroller frame. It is light and easy for me to lift into the trunk of my car. The handle is adjustable, so not too tall for my 5'1 frame. The car seat snaps in and out easily. My baby falls asleep in the car seat in the house, and stays asleep for the ride. The storage basket is roomy, essential for grocery shopping. When I had to drag a suitcase with me, I was able to steer it several blocks with one hand. I recommend getting it with stroller hooks for hanging light items and a fleece bundle me for the winter.

I generally love this base but I am having the worst time with the front wheels turning correctly and I hit things in the stores (and I'm not a klutz). It also is hard to get up curbs or bumps, the wheels need more cushioning or rubber. Other than those two things I have been very happy with my Graco base.

We have two strollers, and use the Graco infant seat with both of them. The expensive Bugaboo (with Graco connector attachment) is great for New York streets, because it handles curbs, cobblestones, stairs, whatever. But collapsing and stowing the Bugaboo is a real pain - it takes a good two or three minutes, it's heavy, there's multiple parts, and you have to wrestle with them. That's where this Graco comes in handy. If you're not planning on taking any taxis, take the Bugaboo. If you're jumping into cars, then the Graco collapses really quickly and is light. However, it doesn't have suspension, it's hard to get it up over curbs, it comes to a stop when you hit bumps or cracks, and it doesn't turn so smoothly (this is all put in relative terms to the superb handling of the bugaboo).

I wish I had this when my first born was in the infant carrier!
br /
br /this stroller is so light weight easy to handle. I bought it when my son was born used it daily!
br /
br /The large basket under the seat is pretty easy to reach.. compared to my regular metrolite stroller.
br /
br /I wish Graco could keep the great features of this frame (easy to open close easy access to basket great stearing, not to mention light weight) in other model strollers!

This is a good stroller, with my first son we had a big heavy bulky one, so i wanted the oposite this time, i really wish i had thought about it more. My daughter is barly 5 months old and i have to look for a new stroller, she is only a few lbs away from outgrowing her infant carseat. I wish their was an attachment or something so i could use this for longer.

This stroller is the perfect thing if you've already committed to the whole graco infant seat product line. It's light and packs well, although the latch could hold it tighter when closed. This was our 'alternate' stroller, after the monstrous but great Quattro tour. This one's perfect for grocery stores and tight places, while the other is a bit much.
br /
br /I'm 6'5", and the adjustable handle was good, while still keeping me from kicking the wheels. It could have been just a bit taller for me, I had to be aware of what I was doing, but it wasn't bad at all.
br /
br /Of course the main con is that it's useless once your child outgrows the infant seat. For our big boy, that meant we only got about 4.5 months of use out of this. Still, wouldn't have done anything else. It was great.

I love this stroller. It is lightweight and easy to use. The travel systems are so bulky. I have had a few occasions where I had to use stairs with the stroller and you can just pick up the car seat and stroller as a unit using the handle on the car seat and carry it. That won't happen with a travel system. The only reason I don't give it 5 stars is the lack of a shock absorber system. This is not a big deal, but it would be a nice touch. Again, highly recommended!

This was a lifesaver for me after having a c-section. It's super light weight, breaks down with one hand and a foot, and is very easy to maneuver with one hand. The handle is adjustable so taller people don't kick the wheels. I am short (5'2") and I love how I can keep an eye on my baby and easily reach her while still moving. While traveling, I wear my baby, check the car seat, and use the base to hold my carry on luggage. At the gate I grab my bags, hand the stroller over to the attendant, and walk in the plane. Very convenient.

I gave it four stars instead of five because the cup holders do not hold standard water bottles, but it is good for keys and cell phone. Also, although the basket is large, it is hard to reach once the car seat is in place.

I registered for this product because I liked how lightweight it was and easy to use. Its nice that I can just snap in the carseat and not have to worry about dealing with a heavy stroller system. My one complaint though is that I am tall, 5'9", and I wish there was a way to extend the handlebar. If it could extend just a couple inches it would be a little more comfortable to push and I wouldn't have to worry about stepping on the breaks by accident. Still a great product though!

I love this stroller. The only complaint I have is that the basket under the stroller is not easily accessible. I have a backpack diaper bag. When I have to reach in my backpack to get something I have to remove the car seat which is inconvenient. Sometimes when your baby is crying and your in a parking lot and you have to reach in your diaper bag for a binky or a burp cloth it becomes a problem. I wish they made it so that the basket would fold down. I may have to purchase another diaper bag in order for me to have it a little bit easier to access. Overall I love the compact style of this stroller.

I am glad we purchased the Graco Snugrider. We keep it in the car and use for quick trips shopping or running errands. The basket is a generous size. It doesn't ride as smoothly as we would like, but for the price you can't beat it. I do not reccomend it as your only stroller, as I do not think it would do well on bumpy sidewalks, or any less than smooth surface.

I just received my stroller frame in the mail today and I LOVE IT! I have not used it but I can imagine the usage that I will get out of it. It is perfect for those quick runs to doctors appointments, mall, to the store. I love my Graco travel system however it is heavy and it is not good to pull out for a quick errand. My baby is 2 months old today so hopefully I will have this for a while. I will use it for future kids and will recommend this to friends and family. I do agree with the small cup holders, however with my safe seat it looks like I can get to the basket with no problem. This is a very econmical option and a must for any parent!

We were given a very nice Graco car seat and base for our new baby, so we didn't want to register for an entire new travel system, but we liked the idea of the convenience for those occasions when we do need a stroller.
br /
br /The stroller frame was very easy to assemble. I'm petite, and getting it in and out of the car is very easy for me, though it does take two hands to fold and unfold. The car seat attaches securely and it feels sturdy. My only major complaint is that the ride is very rough on asphalt, so it isn't good for walking with my baby in the neighborhood for exercise.
br /
br /This product meets our needs and was a good buy.

I love just clicking the Graco car seat into this stroller going. It is very easy to use is lightweight - ideal for shopping. I don't recommend using it on steep slopes or steps, as the car seat only clicks onto the stroller on one side. It is great to use when on the go, and the basket on the bottom is very handy for the diaper bag.

This is a fantastic stroller and works super easy with the snugrider infant car seat. I had originally purchased a PegPerego for $550 which was a total waste of money and did not work well with its car seat. Save your money and make a wise purchase. The snugrider pops right into the basket and stays secure. It is perfect from taking my baby from car to stoller and back to car without moving her from her car seat. Must Have!

This product is a life saver. No bulky strollers to deal with ... just a simple, easy frame to take the load off carrying a heavy infant seat carrier. I was afraid it would be overkill to have this AND a stroller but it is not. I keep this in my car at all times and use it when I go to a big building with a long walk from the parking deck or a department store, etc. I basically use it when a lot of walking is involved and there aren't shopping carts. It's GREAT.

I love this stroller. I wish I would have bought it earlier but I went with the Combi travel system and was seriously disappointed. This stroller is the way to go with an infant. It is very easy to unfold, the car seat snaps right in, and it has a nice large basket. I love that the handle can pivot to accommodate tall or short people. It also made the stroller fold up even smaller when my trunk was too full, depending on the position of the handle. The Combi was awkward but this was tall enough and breezy to push. This is also much higher quality than the Kolcraft and others I have see. If you have a Graco seat (which seems to be the way to go, I LOVED my SafeSeat) than you need this. This is worth the money as you can use it from birth to 6 months no problem. At that point, get a Maclaren!

This is a great product. I did a lot of research on strollers before I purchased the graco snugride (which is also great) with this product. It is SO easy to use, sturdy, lightweight, and folds up nicely. I am small so I didn't want something that was heavy and hard to deal with getting in and out of a vehicle, so this stroller frame seemed like a good idea. I would highly recommend it, as you can adjust the handle bar to suit your height, easy to use, and also very safe for baby. I love it~!

It's wonderful! Very sturdy. I put the carrier in it (without my baby in it) and then tested it. I did all but throw it down the stairs. The carrier is snug on there and fits perfect. It's light, easy to fold and open with 1 hand. I love it!

It works so well with my car seat! I had a third baby and needed a single stroller frame and this worked well with my graco sungrider seat. Easy to use and lightweight!

My husband and I love this stroller! Our baby hit 20 pounds by 4 months and carrying him in his carseat was a big strain on the back. This is not an off roading stroller and not great for heavy outdoor use. We have a MacLaren Techno for that that we also love. We use this stroller for grocery shopping mostly and for that it is perfect. Our kids have all hated being in their carseats when they are awake but, when they fall asleep on the way to the store this stroller is awesome! It's very easy put the carseat in and take it out. The bottle holder fits playtex sippy cups and small water bottles perfectly in the holder. The basket underneath is huge but, you have to put stuff in before the carseat if it's really big. I use this only for it's intended purpose and I think it was well worth the money. I also love that the baby faces you in this stoller. If your looking for a stoller for heavy outdoor use this wouldn't be a great buy for that I would get a BOB stroller because the Safeseat also fits.

We LOVE this product. We actually have this in addition to a travel system, but we use this far more often. It even has more storage in the bottom basket than the larger travel system stroller. It weighs far less than the travel system stroller, and takes up less space in the trunk. We use it in restaurants frequently! The slings that restaurants provide take up much more space than this item! Plus, this item is much more stable than a restaurant sling that could topple if bumped. The push bar can be dropped for added space saving!

We purchased this item to go with our car seat as we did not want the big travel system. This stroller frame was so easy to assemble! It is also easy to fold and compact enough to put in the trunk easily. It is a great solution for those trips to the park, the mall, or for travelling when short on space and need convenience. The car seat clicks in tightly with little effort and the basket is a perfect size.

WE researched a lot of products b4 we bought one. This passed all our test. Safety, convenience, space saver, light weight, easy manuevarability and also the price factor. Its worth ur money.

I love this product! i first had gotten the graco travel system, which was great, but got this instead because it's small, compact, easy to use and it's much more convenient than any other stroller!

i had no trouble learning how to close or open this. I love this! my husband has one for his car, and i have one for my car. the travel set is long gone! (it was way too bulky to fit into my tiny Scion xB)

We live in SF, and a salesperson at Babies-R-Us steered us toward this and away from the full traveler system. We owe her b/c it was clearly the right decision - it's light, breaks down easily, and compact.

I am a new first time mother. I was apprehensive to hit the stores for the first few times and this stroller made me so comfortable with the process. Being able to manuever around easily and not have my huge travel system for one errand here and there was such a great thing especially because I was nervous to venture out initially. HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT!

Initially, I thought this item was excessive since we already have a Graco travel system. Our travel stroller is super heavy and was very expensive so I thought I'd look at these strollers. I compared the Graco with the generic model. The extra $10 is totally worth it if you have a Graco stroller. It fits so much more securely on this stoller and doesn't slide back and forth. This stroller is super lightweight and really easy for running errands. Since it is only $60 in comparison to our travel system stroller, I'm not afraid to throw it in the back or scratch it up.

It has a handle on the side for easy carrying and locks when you fold it. Folding and unfolding are really easy with one button for each. The basket is really big and the handlebar adjusts a couple of inches for shorter or taller people. I totally recommend this one if you're looking to buy.

I absolutley love this stroller!!! We live in Japan where things are small...stores, streets, & trains. This is the perfect alternative to a cumbersome full-size stroller. Super easy to put together and the basket holds a full diaper bag. Turns on a dime and folds up easily--what more could you ask for? Only downside is that with the carseat in place it is a little difficult to reach the basket, but, if you place the diaper bag with the opening facing you it can still be accessed by reaching in. I am not looking forward to giving this up when our little one outgrows her carseat.

We've been using this stroller frame for over four months and we love it! It is absolutely convenient due to it's light weight, portability and ease of use! I keep it in the trunk of my Honda Accord and use it everywhere...it's wheels are not the best for outdoor walking but I knew this would be the case when I purchased it. It still does the job!

I definitely recommend this one. Just a note - we are using it with a Graco Snugride carseat so I don't know whether it works with any other brands?

This is a wonderful poduct. I will miss it dearly when he gets to big for his Graco seat. It is light, portable, easy to use. The only downside is that even though I am only 5'4" I have very long legs and I do tend to kick the stroller when I walk. However, it is not enough of a downside to rate this as anything other than 5 stars.

I LOVE THIS STROLLER FRAME. IT'S A HASSLE GOING PLACES WITH A NEW BABY HAVING TO CARRY SO MUCH GEAR SO IT'S GREAT TO BE ABLE TO MINIMIZE THE WEIGHT AND SPACE OF ITEMS BEING CARRIED. THIS FRAME WEIGHTS LESS THAN MY BABY AND TAKES UP WAY LESS SPACE THAN THE STROLLER THAT CAME WITH MY CAR SEAT. THE PRICE SEEMS A LITTLE HIGH FOR SOMETHING THAT IS NOT COMPLETE AND CAN ONLY BE USED WHILE YOUR BABY FITS IN THE CAR SEAT USUALLY A YEAR BUT IT'S WORTH IT. I HAVE LESS TROUBLE LOADING IT IN CAR AND HAVE MORE SPACE IN MY TRUNK, I CAN ACCTUALLY FIT STUFF BACK THERE WHEN I GO TO THE STORE. CAN'T DO THAT WITH THE BIG STROLLER.

OK, I got this for my second baby (my first Graco Quattro stroller was stolen). I tried several of these types of strollers WITH my Graco infant carseat, and this was the one that fit securely with the carseat. The others were just not secure, and needed straps, etc. to hold the seat in. This moved like a DREAM- I was so sad when my baby outgrew it. It was really great to be able to manuever the stroller with one hand and hold onto my 3 year old with the other. The only downside was that the generous sized basket did not collapse down, so if you wanted to put stuff in there, it could be tricky. I usually tried to put my diaper bag, etc. in there before I loaded baby. Also, it folded very easily, and was soooo light to pick up- even after my c-section. I really loved this stroller, and only wished that there was some way to convert it into a sit-up stroller when the baby outgrows the infant car seat. Oh well.

This is a great stroller frame! There was very minimal, simple assembly, and looks very stylish. My Graco Snug Ride infant car seat fits in it perfectly. Easy access to the good size basket underneath, convenient snap on cup holder and small compartment that you can fit your keys and cell phone in. I love the adjustable handles since my husband is at least 6" taller than me. It's nice and narrow, which is great for shopping at stores with narrow aisle. It's nice and light weight, turns on a dime, and is easy to collapse. There really isn't anything that I can find wrong with it. I would highly recommend this stroller frame to anyone!

Purchased this stroller base for our grandson to go along with the carseat base we already had. It's easy to collapse lightweight to handle.

We bought this to go with our Graco Snug Ride Carseat and absolutely love it! The basket underneath is HUGE, great for shopping. This stroller is super light and folds up easily. We used it forever until our daughter got too big for her carseat. Will definitely use this with the next baby. Great product!

I have the Graco SafeSeat and a regular stroller and I got this for a trip we are about to take and I love it. I figured this would be easier to take on a plane than a separate stroller. Easy to fold, compact and I don't have to wake my baby to move him to a stroller and run into a store

We were travelling with DD and 4 week old grandson on his first big car trip to visit friends in Connecticut. We had packed up the Highlander with the diaper bags, a Pack N Play, Graco Quattro Tour stoller, and all of our luggage and other baby stuff. On the first day after our arrival, and while doing some shopping at the mall, the rear wheel on the Quattro Tour fell off, just after we entered the mall. UGH!
br /
br /We still had the rest of the trip ahead of us, and knew we didn't want to carry the Snug Ride around by hand. As luck would have it, we were staying next door to a new BRU, and went in to look for an emergency, cheapo back up stroller. Options were few. We looked at Graco SnugRider and the "other brand", and quickly decided that the Graco product looked like a winner. We bought it with the intention of using it for the remainder of the trip, and then turning around and selling it right away, but after our first trip out with it, we were hooked!
br /
br /It is so easy to place the car seat in the the frame, and travel with your little one. The basket is huge, and holds an Ulitmate Diaper bag from Lands End with ease and room to spare.
br /
br /We really like how lightweight it is, and the ease in which it opens and closes. The cup holders appeared to be on the small side at first glance, but we have found them to be a even better than those on the full size Quattro Tour. It manuevers easily through parking lots, store aisles, and the neighborhood.
br /
br /We were able to repair the rear wheel on the Quattro Tour once we got home, and have had the use of both strollers since then. More often than not though, the heavier Quattro Tour goes in DD's car, and Grammie and Grandpa take the lightweight SnugRider.
br /
br /Sadly, our 5 month old grandson is quickly outgrowing his SnugRide Car Seat, and it just dawned on me that we won't be able to use this stroller once he has. It has been a real gem of a stroller for us, and we will miss it once he has graduated to a bigger car seat.
br /
br /Bottom line, this stroller is at a great price point, easy to open, close, and steer. Great cupholders and huge basket. Super lightweight, and it has an adjustable handle.

This lightweight stroller frame is SOO much better than the bulky strollers that I had with my previous 2 children. I like it so much better because it folds thinner and doesn't take up as much room in my SUV. It has cupholders and underneath storage without all of the unnecessary "fru-fru". Great product!

Not one complaint on this item, well designed and thought out. the car seat snaps in and you don't have to worry about it coming out until you are ready for it to. the stroller folds up flat for easy storage/transport and unfold easier than it folds. No wasted time fighting with the stroller.

This is light, simple, easy to use, and very convenient rather than a big bulky stroller.

I love the stroller frame. We have a great Jeep 3-wheel stroller that the carseat will attach to but it is a bit big and bulky for everyday use. Plus it doesn't fit in the trunk of my car. This stroller frame pops right in the trunk and is super lightweight. The carseat snaps securely onto it and the basket underneath can even be used for shopping if you're just picking up a couple things. It is also very easy to turn and maneuver even in tight spaces. It's a must-have.

I love this product! After having back surgery, it's very hard for me to lift my daughter in her car seat. I open this up in one swift click and snap on the car seat and viola! It's so simple, light weight and convenient. I don't go anywhere without it.

I LOVE this stroller!!! I had the traditional travel system with my first son and it was so heavy to lug around. This idea of having just the stroller frame is awesome! I'm so happy I purchased this along with the Graco car seat. It's so easy to use and lightweight. LOVE IT!!!

With my first child, I did what a lot of parents do: buy a Travel System. The stroller part of that system was bulky and heavy and I dreaded trying to get it into the trunk of my compact car. Once my first child was old enough, I dumped the Travel System stroller and bought another lightweight stroller.
br /With my second child, I bought this frame and it fit my SnugRider carseat just fine. The car seat part snap/latches in the front and 2 levers pull out to hold the sides. This stroller pushes incredibly smoothly. With the Travel System I bought previously, it was always an effort to push the stroller. I have taken this over smooth sidewalks, unpaved trails and light gravel and it rolls over them with a minimal of effort. The only 2 complaints are almost not worth mentioning but I will anyway. First, the single handed closing of the frame isn't single handed for left handed parents. This is a common problem I have being left-handed and my 11-yr old who is right handed has no problem with it. Second, when you open and close the latch that holds the system standing up, it isn't always easy. Sometimes it comes apart and I have to do it again or I have to turn it around to unlatch it. I think this also is because I'm left-handed but it is workable.

I wanted to avoid the big, bulky travel system that I used with my first daughter, so when I was pregnant with my second I ordered this. I love it! The steering is so smooth, I can easily manuvuer one handed. The basket is huge and I love that there is a cup holder. Also, it is very easy to fold one handed. The only downside, which isn't that bad at all: I wish that the little compartment opposite the cup holder was wide enough for another cup/sippy cup to throw my older daughter's sippy cup in, but that is certainly no biggie. Otherwise, this is a great quality product and a must have!

This product is great! I have a regular full size stroller, but I prefer using this one when running errands and such. It is easy to fold up and put into the back of our small truck. It has been a godsend!

Lightweight, easy to assemble and disassemble!!! I can easily fold this stroller by using the handle and put it in the trunk of a car. One negative remark, is that it can only be used with the infant car seat! Therefore, this product is only good for the year when the infant is in this carseat.

This is a must have. With my first I had the big travel system while it was pretty it was too much work..this is light and easy. I just gave one as a gift to a new mom. I would recommend the Snugrider to every new mother.

Great. So my wife and I purchased this ultra-convenient frame/stroller for convenience. It worked great for about 8 weeks, then one of the front wheels bent to where we couldn't use it anymore. AND, the front wheels would at times jam the stroller from opening up in the first place. In concept, a frame/stroller like this is awesome, but Graco needs to redesign this and make it better and sturdier. All in all, a major dissapointment.

THIS PRODUCT IS VERY EASY TO USE AND PERFECT FOR TRAVELING BUT THE 2 STINKY THINGS ABOUT IT IS THAT THE BASKET IS IMPOSSIBLE TO GET TO WHEN THE CARSEAT IS ATTATCHED. I CAN'T EVEN PUT MY DIAPER BAG IN THERE, I HAVE TO PUT IT IN BEFORE I ATTATCH THE CARSEAT AND THEN I CAN'T GET IT OUT. IT'S ALSO HARD TO UNFOLD BUT I FOUND OUT THAT IF U CAN'T GET IT UNFOLDED U SHOULD PULL IT TOGETHER AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE THEN UNHOOK IT AND UNFOLD IT. THAT USUALLY WORKS BUT SOMETIMES AFTER 2 OR 3 TRIES. OTHER THAN THAT I WOULD RECOMMENDED IT!!!

Let me start by saying I loved this stroller. We have used it for 8 months now, it is great for traveling. But today, I went down a slope, and the carseat with my son, who THANK GOD was strapped in, flipped a full 180 degrees, feet over head. He landed upside-down in his carseat on the concrete! I had been responsible and made sure it clicked into place when I put him in, but the carseat is only latched on the top side. So the other side is just placed on the two flimsy red hooks. Any slope, or going down a curb, and there is a possibility that the child may flip over. SO PLEASE BE CAREFUL! Luckily, my son was OK, more scared than hurt, but I am still going to contact Graco about this issue.

There are several pros and cons to this stroller system

Pros:
-Not as bulky as a travel system. You don't look like you're pushing a yacht around the park.
-Folds up nice and flat. Have no problem fitting it in the trunk.
-Absolutely HUGE basket. You could really go nuts at the mall and not fill this thing up.

Cons:
-There are no shocks on the wheels. When my sleeping baby goes over rough terrain, she often startles and then wakes up.
-As my husband says, it handles like a truck. You have to think ahead when steering because this thing turns on a frisbee, not a dime.
-Cup holders are useless. About the only thing that would fit in it is a small coffee and the warning label says not to put anything hot in it.

All in all, if I had to do it again, I'd buy a lightweight travel system and look like a small yacht strolling around the park because then at least when my baby outgrew this model, I'd have a functional stroller that handles well.

I loved this stroller for about 4-5 months (used almost daily with the Graco SafeSeat). I'm now in the market for "the next step" comfy umbrella type stroller that should last 2-3 years for everything I used this for - the quick jaunts to the store, the occassional walk, and travelling. This stroller handled all of those things wonderfully until about a month ago (my son is almost 6 months). It's now incredibly difficult to steer, the wheels squeak and the tread is wearing. There is no way I can keep this and use it for the next baby. I knew I did not want a bulky travel system but as I now look at lightweight umbrella type strollers like the Graco Mosaic or Peg Aria, I'm realizing I could have gotten "the next step" stroller AND have had an easy way to transport my baby in his car seat - effectively a lightweight travel system. The benefit to a travel system that I've seen with other moms is that they then have 2 sunshades to use to cover the baby - perfect for walks during naptime. The benefit to the carseat frame is the absolutely HUGE basket (of which I have been quite spoiled with as I now look at umbrella strollers with the teensiest of baskets). I never used the cup holders for cups as they were too small and shallow for my 1 L water bottle but they were great to hold my keys and cell phone. I would have rather put the $60 towards a really nice umbrella-type stroller travel system. However, now that I've waited, I can actually put my baby in them to see if he's be comfortable in it. I knew going in that I'd have to buy another stroller at some point, I'm just dissapointed that I can't use this for the next baby - and the frusterating steering/wheel thing is encouraging me to purchase my next stroller sooner rather than later.

We had the Graco Laura Ashley travel system and I used this frequently during the 8 months that my daughter fit in her infant seat. It is very light weight and easy to open and close and would fit easily in any trunk and should still leave room.
br /The baby bargian book that I used when creating my registry and making initial baby purchases recommended that expectant parents purchase an infant seat and and infant seat frame and wait to buy a stroller until baby is older. I think that is a good recommendation - we ended up buying a better stroller (Uppababy Vista) to replace the graco quattro that came with the travel system.

This is so lightweight and easy to open and close, I love it. Could not imagine what it would have been like if I would have bought one of those bulky strollers. Why complicate my life?

Recently my miniature Dachshund lost the use of her back legs. After shopping in thrift stores, flea markets etc, I was not able to find any inexpensive practical baby stroller to enable me to still take my dog for walks. I saw this product for sale as part of a two piece stroller system for infant carriers in my local big box store. It is meant to hold an infant carrier and convert it into a stroller. Most strollers I looked at were huge, and a bit "fussy" for a dog! The stroller fame is sturdy yet lightweight. It folds compactly and easily and fits into my very small car for transport to our favorite park for evening walks. The sturdy mesh bottom compartment is the perfect size for my little Roxy to lie in comfort and see all around her as we walk. I was especially surprised to see the same item on Amazon.com priced cheaper than my local retailer. I would recommend this product to any pet owner with a disabled small dog, as it is considerably less expensive than strollers designed specifically for animals. My dog loves it and looks forward to her daily walks.

I got tired of lugging around the huge stroller and purchased this one. Works great - very sturdy and fits my SnugRide well. I also use it in the house - the baby loves to stroll around the house when she's fussy and it small enough that it doesn't get in the way.

i love this concept and this stroller did the trick but i would pay a little bit more for the better built one if you know what i am talking about... after 5 months the front wheel would get stuck and stopped turning. we used it a lot for walks and it didn't handle the sidewalks too well... overall i was very happy.

This stroller, though handy, has two major flaws:
1) It is difficult to unfold, and
2) Once the carseat is snapped in place, it is VERY difficult to get any items in and out of the basket due to the fact that the carseat rests very low on the frame.

My advice: Buy the Snap & Go instead!! My friend has one and her basket is easily accessible with the carseat in place.

I registered for this when I was pregnant, thought it would be nice, but never intended to keep it if we did not get our full size stroller as well. Well, we got both, and I am so glad I kept this one!! This was a dream come true when my son was an infant, the stroller was so light and took up so little space, it made getting in and out of places a cinch! I had a HUGE adjustment when we had to switch to the regular stroller, it is so much bigger and heavier! I am 5"2', and this was so much easier to handel, both weight wise and manuevering! My only complaint (and it isn't so much against Graco) is that I took my son when he was 4 months old on a plane flight and the airline managed to loose both of the cup holders! We lost one going and the other coming home! I don't know how much of that was poor attachment, and how much was the airline baboons, but I was able to order new ones from Graco for about $15, so it was no biggie. It was very nice traveling with this stroller as well, I silently laughed at all the other people fighting w/ big strollers getting off the plane, I just had to flip my little one open, pop my son's seat in, and I was on my way.

We travel _a lot_ with the baby and have a Graco car seat. When our Kolcraft Universal Infant Car Seat Carrier wore out, we bought one of these thinking it would be better with our car seat, but my husband, our sitter, and I hate it so much we actually gave it away. The Graco stroller frame is nearly impossible to steer, locks up at odd times, and is difficult to fold with one hand. Really infuriating after how great the Kolcraft was.

I bought the Graco SnugRider Infant Car Seat Stroller Frame with the Graco safeseat. They work great together. Just a couple problems. 1. If you put coffee in the cup holder and go over a bump it could spill on your child. 2. If you have a diaper bag you want to put on the bottom of the stroller, put it in before you put attach the car seat. Otherwise then that, it is fast to open and to travel with.

well made ,light weight ,easy to use.my wife been using it since last month so far no complains

I was not pleased with the service in regards to this particular item...after 2 weeks of not receiving this item I called BabyAge Cust. Serv and was told they were out of stock in which no one bothered to contact me, was told they were receiving a truck that very day and would have one delivered...again I waited another 2 weeks and called again and this time I was told that the order had been cancelled by BabyAge and I did not authorize any cancellation. I had ordered other items along with this one to be delivered to my daughter who is stationed in Italy and needless to say having to wait on this item delayed me sending her gifts so I'm not satisfied with what I had to go thru.
