Graco stroller & car seat recommendations

ruby2315

Hi, I'm a FTM looking at the Graco travel system options.  I'm currently considering the FastAction Fold and the Spree Classic Connect.  They both come with a SnugRide infant car seat.  Has any used either of these travel systems, and if so, would you recommend them?

No.  I do not recommend them at all.  The Snugride 22 car seat does not fit newborns well (the shoulder straps are too high for a newborn) and is outgrown very quickly.

The strollers are heavy, bulky and have plastic wheels.  What is your budget and I can try and help you find a better option.

Thanks for the info.  I was planning to keep it under $200, not sure if that is feasible for other travel systems?

Yes.  For your price range, this new Graco Verb travel system looks great.  The stroller is lightweight, has good features and comes with a good car seat and it is $179

Or this Chicco Liteway Plus system, comes with the KeyFit car seat and a lightweight umbrella system.

I don't think the Liteway stroller comes with the car seat for that price unfortunately. It says in the description 'car seat sold separately'. But I highly recommend it if you're able to spend a little more!
