does anyone have the graco quattro travel system?
is it easy to fold up? A friend of mine was over yesterday and she had the chicco. With one press on the handle the stroller folded. Does the graco do the same thing?

It is the EASIEST one I saw. It has one button on the handle, turn handle, down it goes....It closes with one hand.

It was a little tricky at first, but now it's very easy. I like that you don't have to hold the button the whole time you're collapsing it.

Re: does anyone have the graco quattro travel system?
I suggest you go to the store (any of them!) and do a test drive.
I did. That's why the strollers are there. I went to BBB since they have a big selection. Practice to put the carseat on there, then take it off. See how easy or not it is. Try to fold it. Try lifting it.
I had DH walk with the stroller (not just 1 or 2 feet). I told him to go about 10-15 feet. Do turns, etc... And see if how we felt about the strollers. He looked at me like "no way, I am doing it in the store" but in the end he understood. I don't want to be stucked with a stroller I don't like.

Re: does anyone have the graco quattro travel system?
we are just starting the process of looking at strollers.. but those travel systems seem way heavy to me.... the only one that wasnt seemed to be the metrolite one...
i think we are going to do the graco snug ride infant seat and teh snap and go frame... and then get another stroller for when the baby is about 6 months..
maybe a reg gracco metrolite or the peg perago piko one... those both seemed very light...
i cant imagine folding and lifting 30 pounds in and out of the back of my truck everyday!

The quatro is only like 7-8 lbs more then the metrolite.
We had the metrolite and it felt like it was sooo flimsy, so we exchanged it for the Quatro.
And the Quatro collapsed, SOOOOOOO much easier then the metrolite.
I could life it once folded off the floor high ( at 38 weeks preggo) ...so its light
BUT... yes, it is a lot bulkier when its folded.

I have this one and it is VERY easy to fold, but I really didn't try out too many others.

I have it, and it is super easy. I can do it with one hand while holding my daughter.
