Strollers & Car Seats -What do you have?

Hi Mommies,

A lot of us on the pregnancy board are in the process of registering and researching what we will need... I thought it might help if some of you could post what you have and whether you're happy with it.... maybe even what you like and don't like about it. Hope you don't mind me intruding over here... thanks!

How about those Strollers and Car Seats.....

Re: Strollers & Car Seats -What do you have?

i have a graco snug ride with the snap & go stroller and a Maclaren umbrella stroller (which I haven't gotten to use yet). So far I am LOVING the snugride/snap & go combo... i didn't get a huge travel system and am v. happy without it.

Re: Strollers & Car Seats -What do you have?

i have this one and i love it!

I used the Graco Snug Ride and Snap N' Go when she was an infant. We use the Peg Perego Pliko P3 now.

ETA...loved them all...especially the Snap n Go!

I have a Bugaboo Frog, and as EVERYONE and their mother knows, I think its the best thing since sliced bread. I have a European make car seat, its called a Maxi Cosi Tobi and its fab too

Re: Strollers & Car Seats -What do you have?

I have the Graco snugrug and snap and go. Also, the Graco METROLITE central park edition. And an old fashioned Coach carriage which I only used a few times.

ALot of the travel systems are cute especially the fabric colors, but BE CAREFUL because they are very heavy. Just think when u test them out in the store, the baby isnt in them which adds weight too.

GOOD LUCK!!!!!!!!

Re: Strollers & Car Seats -What do you have?

I had the Graco Snugride(with the Snap & Go) which was great and the Quattro Tour which I hated. At 5'3 the system is too heavy and bulky for me to deal with everytime I go shopping. I now have the Peg Perego Pliko Lite and LOVE it. I wish I had gone Peg Perego from the beginning. As for a convertible carseat we have a Britax Boulevard and a Graco ComfortSport which have been great.

Re: Strollers & Car Seats -What do you have?

I had the graco snug ride seat and a graco stroller --- I wasn't crazy about my stroller. I think graco makes GREAT travel systems but I should have gotten one iwth the metro lite instead of the one that I had --- since it was bulky.
My sister has the metrolite and it is awesome.

Re: Strollers & Car Seats -What do you have?

This is the travel system I have. It's Laura Ashley by Graco...

The stoller is a little bulky but it really isn't heavy and very easy to open and close as well as move around. I did get the Graco Snap & Go to carry in the car since it's smaller and easier to fit in some stores.

I have the Quattro Tour travel system, I love it. Yes the stroller is a little big and bulky but I get it in and out of my truck no problem all the time. I use this stroller for trips to the mall (lots of room), walks, basically everything. I have a Chicco C5 lightweight stroller that I use if I am just running into a store or something quick, like into CVS. I have the snap and go but never really used it much, I think it's a great concept but once the baby is out of the infant seat it's useless. That's just my experiece though, most moms love the snap and go.

Re: Strollers & Car Seats -What do you have?

I have the Eddie Brauer Travel System

Re: Strollers & Car Seats -What do you have?

Re: Strollers & Car Seats -What do you have?

I have the Graco Metrolite Stroller and I LOVE it. So easy to use.

Re: Strollers & Car Seats -What do you have?

We used the snap & go and the graco carseat--that as great,

We have the Zippy Inglesina and it is ok- no tray or cup holder...

NOw that is getting too big so I want an umbrella stroller... WE are looking at the MAclaren quest or triumph..

Re: Strollers & Car Seats -What do you have?

I have the Peg Perego Venezia. I love it! Some people complain it's too bulky, but it doesn't bother me. I never use the carseat to put in the stroller, I prefer taking him out, so this stroller was perfect for me.

Re: Strollers & Car Seats -What do you have?

Peg infant seat - I'm glad I was able to use my sisters, they grow out of it so fast!
Britax Roundabout - love it!!!
Bugaboo - LOVE IT!!!!

Love the stroller, the car seat is okay.

SafeSeat Infant Car Seat - Central Park by Graco & DuoGlider LXI - Central Park by Graco

I will warn anyone getting the snap 'n go to fit a Graco car seat that not all of the Graco car seats fit it - my SafeSeat does not - I think its only the SnugRides that do.

Re: Strollers & Car Seats -What do you have?

*Peg Perego Primo Viaggio SIP infant car seat

*Bugaboo Cameleon (DH and I LOVE this stroller!! We use the PP car seat attachments with the infant car seat.)

*Peg Perego Venezia stroller (DH and I hate it, but it could be because we're spoiled by the Bugaboo...there's no comparison!)
