GREAT STOLLER!
Date of Review: Jan 22, 2008
The Bottom Line: GREAT STROLLER! We love it! Get one for yourself!
We truly love this stroller. My husband ever likes using it! It is so easy to use and the fact that the Keyfit car seat latches in almost effortlessly was a strong selling point. The adjustable handle (I am 5'6" and my husband is 6'5") is a life saver when we are shopping. We recently took a long shopping trip and my husband didn't complain once about pushing the stroller around.
I was so excited when our stroller was delivered that I pulled it out of the box and assembled it myself. Assembly took about 30 minutes from opening the box to functional stroller.
I love the cup holder and additional key/sunglasses holder near the handles... and the additional holder can also be used for a second adult cup. When not being used, I store some extra napkins there for "uh-oh" moments.
I also really like that the front wheels have a locking ability for use on rougher terrain.
The one hand fold down and fold up ability is great once you have mastered your technique! It takes a little practice!
My only gripe is that the huge undercarriage compartment is next to impossible to use when the stroller is fully reclined. When using the car seat, the stroller must be fully reclined so that means that you have virtually no access to the undercarriage storage until your child has outgrown the car seat (22 lbs) or you just decide to quit using it with the stroller. I have bought an "S" hook to use for carrying shopping bags when I go to the mall. It attaches to the handle and seems to work fine.
Our son arrived six weeks early and only weighed 4 pounds 11 ounces, so not having to get him out of his car seat on every shopping trip was quite helpful! Knowing we could just click his car seat into the stroller was reassuring. He is gaining weight quick and it is great to know that he won't outgrow this car seat until he is 50 pounds!
