i also wish it came with the drink/snack tray/carseat adapter add on.
we had a travel system already with carseat and stroller, but i started doing an exercise program with my baby in the stroller and i was just tearing up my regular stroller.
we also got the carseat adapter so we could use it right away.
our baby rides comfortably and happy in the carseat with the car-seat-adapter that we bought extra.
my carseat snaps in and the colors match.
there's no need to use a travel system or a carseat and dedicated carseat-stroller frame when you have this stroller--it will take us all the way to age three!
we also purchased the city mini car seat adapter to use it with our snugride carseat.
others include the fact it doesn't weigh too much, although i don't break it down to travel with it since my son still has his carseat/snap and go set up.
i've bought every stroller from the umbrella variety to the one's that include the carseat conversion.
it was our first stroller, and we bought it partially because it was compatible with the graco carseat.
when we were stroller shopping, i was single-minded about picking the carseat first and from there, the best stroller available to match.
we did not get the bassinet, save your money and just use the carseat adapters and get the maxi-cosi seat that goes with it (i think it has adapters for some other brands as well).
i use the maxi cosi carseat and couldn't be happier.
we are using ours for our newborn with the maxi cosi infant carseat (also a great purchase).
the other features that i love are the seat options--facing forward or backward, option for the bassinet or carseat and i love the adjustable handlebar.
overall, we are very happy with this stroller / carseat combo.
my son was born 3 months prematurely and when i saw the video on the website, i knew this carseat was for me.
i also purchased the matching carseat and it works great with the stroller.
pics i uploaded) along with the keyfit carseat which i also love (and reviewed).
i really like the keyfit infant seat, but when my son was an infant the infant insert fit his body oddly and he was always slumped down and uncomfortable, which made it hard for him to sleep in the
also, our chicco keyfit carseat easily snaps into stroller.
her carseat (chicco keyfit 30) fits nice and secure.
the universal car seat adapter works on any carseat.
this stroller is a perfect combination of jogger/carseat combo in my opinion!
of course i have no choice, i am thankful that i had it and it came with the carseat.
i love this stroller with the carseat.
carseat:
we used the carseat for the first time to bring our preemie grandson home from the hospital.
the carseat snaps easily into the base, and the stroller opens and closes without much effort as well.
i was sad when my daughter got to big for it and i had to get a forward facing carseat already.
i purchased this stroller/carseat after considering more strollers than you could ever imagine.
although quite a bit pricier than the graco or evenflo systems, i feel much more comfortable having my baby in this carseat.
the carseat was very large, bulky, and extremely heavy.
i have the carseat adapter for it and have had my infant in the stroller while my toddler walked beside it and even without even weight distribution on both sides, it was fantastic!
here's why i love it: it can accommodate the graco infant travel carseat (with a separate accessory).
i also bought the carseat attachment bar which also has cup holders for both children when you're done using it as a carseat bar...which is a great idea.
an important feature that double strollers offer is carseat compatability which this one does.
i wish we would have known that bob has attachment for carseats when our twins were born.
we purchased the carseat attachment which was easily installed and we have had no problem inserting our graco snugride..the foam block is unneccesary for our model.
i am waititng for the carseat adapter but i put my 8 week old in the stroller while it is reclined it works great.
after my second son was born, i did extensive research to find the best stroller for my newborn and 3 year old - something that could accomodate a large toddler and a carseat.
i decided on the buggy because it holds my graco infant carseat.
when used with the car seat, it can be difficult to know when it is secure as both the stroller and the carseat make the same click noise.
the stroller is very comfy for my son and when he was 6 wks old we would fully recline the seat for him or attach our peg perego carseat which snaps in.
the maclaren techno xlr is a much larger stroller and takes a baby from infancy (carseat adaptable) right through the toddler years.
my son transitioned from the graco snugride carseat into this stroller at 6 months.
i thought about and researched carseats and strollers for a long time before i decided on this one.
i was not very impressed with the features of the chico cortina stroller.i can't say anything bad about the carseat, it would do what it ...
i use a graco snug fit carseat with and have never had a problem.
i looked at the snap-n-go and universal carseat carrier before deciding on this one.
i bought the maclaren easy traveller to use with my chicco keyfit30 carseat.
unless you are happy with your carseat just sitting in the stroller that is!
so i still give this stroller very high marks for being so solid and easy to fold and especially for the wonderful way our graco carseat sits in it (using the proper attachment of course).
we have the infant carseat adapter and our daughter has enjoyed our runs in the stroller since she was 4 weeks old!
the handle bar console is a must and the carseat adaptor was very useful.
it was virtually impossible to find a universal carrier stroller to fit the britax companion carseat and we returned many.
the britax companion infant carseat snaps right in.
it were helpful to have an instruction booklet, which does not come with the stroller(only a brief pamphlet about how to attach the carseat and seat, and assembly of the pieces).
it has even traveled through airports with me and my son, and i was able to hang my son's carseat on one of the handles.
i have a huge jogging stroller/carseat combo, so i wanted just a simple cheap stroller that our baby sitter's could take with them and something easy to take into the mall.
i love that this stroller, it will accept any infant carseat.
i have a graco snug ride ii carseat...i selected this stroller frame because i had a gift certificate that covered the cost of it so it would be free.
it has been very handy and i will miss its convenience now that my son won't fit in the snugride carseat anymore.
one caveat: with our combi infant carrier baby sat fairly upright, much at the same angle as when the carseat was in the car.
cons: can't use it once baby outgrows infant carseat around 6 months old
it has been great in the airports; we always bring the carseat on the plane and just check the stroller at the gate.
the carseat can be used with or without the base, which is a great feature that many other travel systems don't have.
i did alot of research on the safest carseats and the snugride came out the best!
i ordered this stroller/carseat combo for my sister, who's baby shower is in 3 days..
be forewarned that all graco snugride infant carseats are not alike.
