Good System
Date of Review: Apr 5, 2008
The Bottom Line: I absolutely recommend this travel system to anyone looking for a good-priced stroller/carseat combo. The construction is decent and I think it will exceed most people's expectations.
My husband and I purchased this smooth-riding travel system when our daughter was born. She is now 7 months old as of this posting and I can say I am happy with our choice. However, I do not recommend this travel system to anyone who drives a small car. I drove a Saturn SC-2 and I could not fit the stroller in the trunk. Also, I could not have anyone ride in the passenger seat since I had to have the seat completely forward in order for the carseat to fit. I absolutely love the large cargo area in the bottom of the stroller. It is large enough to fit a big diaper bag, purse and even some shopping bags. Overall, the stroller is easy to use. The carseat snaps right in and now that my daughter is a bit older, she loves riding forward in the stroller. The snack tray is large and the sunshade provides great coverage from the harsh desert sun. I have used the travel system at the airport without any major problems. I only needed a little help at security collapsing the stroller and getting it up onto the scanner belt while holding my daughter since the stroller is a bit on the heavy side. We have had minor problems with the wheels, but it was nothing a little oil couldn't fix. I also wish the plastic used was a little more substantial to avoid the stroller from appearing "cheap." I think any reasonable person would be happy with this travel system. It is a bit cumbersome for quick trips out, but a must for long ones.
