Torn between two strollers...Please help

I am torn between the chicco and the graco deco. I've tried test driving both but cant decide which i want more. I like the deco because its not as plain, chicco seems lighter and has 2 cup holders and basket looks better. Any suggestions?

I got the Chicco Cortina. Love it! Just has one button and is so light-weight. Carseat also has really good ratings. My friend has this one and recommended as well.

I personally thought the Chicco was easier to work with. I thought the car seat was super easy to take out and the stroller was easier to fold. I plan on registering for the Chicco.

ETA: You may want to post on parenting and get actual reviews from parents who are using the two strollers.

i was going to register for the graco stroller also, but i found better reveiws on the chicco, especially on the keyfit 30 which has better safety issues (it has a side impact proctection unlike graco which does not according to the baby bargins book)

I have the Graco Deco, and it does have 2 cup holders and a basket. I find it easy to close up and its not really that heavy.

Re: Torn between two strollers...Please help

I was set on getting the Chicco and had registered for it.

But, I switched to the Graco for 2 reasons: I didn't like that the snap-n-go was secured by a strap for the Chicco car seat. Some girls say that it works fine, but I wasn't comfortable with that (not to mention the extra step). I also read a review that said that the Chicco stroller and Car Seat have these plastic wings near the shoulders that don't come out and that some kids who are broader shouldered outgrow this faster. DH is pretty broad, and since I am having a boy, it was the deciding factor to make me go with the Graco Quattro in French Roast.

Good luck with your decision! I agonized over this one!!!
