May 2013 Moms

what travel system are you going with?

I am at a cross between the Graco "Click" Francesca pattern, or the Sandstone Britax.

I was going to do a double, but DS walks around so much and will be 4 this year, so I opted out.

Re: what travel system are you going with?

  • With our first we opted for a Snap and Go frame with the infant carseat. Loved how light and easy it was!

  • We went with the Britax travel system. I am FTM and went in to register sure that I was going to get the Chicco Key Fit 30 and a snap and go. Once I got to the store and actually tried them out, H and I liked the Britax much better. 

    Have you tried them out? I would definitely recommend it if you haven't. It may change your mind.

  • I'm pretty sure we're doing the Peg Perego infant seat. Possibly one of their strollers too but we haven't tried them yet. Hoping to do that this weekend.

    The only thing we've tried is the BOB, but we're looking to buy that used.
  • We are doing the Britax in Sandstone... I was sold when they showed me the one handed folding for the stroller. I was worried that the carrier would be too heavy but after putting the fake baby in all of the carriers at BBB, it wasn't any heavier than the others and it seems to have gotten good safety ratings.

    This, we loved the stroller.

  • I'm 85% sure we are going with This Graco Modes Click Connect Travel System is 3 strollers in 1 and provides 10 versatile riding options.
  • We didn't go with an actual travel system.  We got the Chicco Keyfit 30 and the BOB stroller with carseat adaptor.

  • Chicco Liteway Plus...Lightweight stroller that also converts to hold the Chicco key fit carseat! Love it. I tried the Britax but it was just to big and bulky for me.

    I haven't. I was going to check them out this weekend. With DS I used the Bertini, and regret buying that thing, it was massive! This time I I want something a bit more agile.

    This! It is between that and the Britax. I was sold on the Graco when I saw the demo video of all the positons. I think DH loves this one as well.

  • We chose the Graco Click Connect. After trying them out in the store, we loved the one handed easy close functionality and the 8 different positions on the base. I liked that the weight and height limitations were higher, but would still accommodate a preemie if necessary. Plus it was comfortable for both of us....I'm 5'3" and he's 6'1"!!

    This is what we're doing too. Got the Graco car seat and the snap and go frame. We'll probably also get a BOB with carseat adapter for something more sturdy for longer walks, but I heard great things about the snap and go frame instead of a travel system.

  • We're planning on getting the Britax. I want red but my husband wants black! I like the way the stroller looks, and it is super easy to fold and maneuver. In case they don't show you, the front wheel can be locked in place or not. When it's not it turns on a dime.

    We thought about getting a car seat frame but I would rather put that $75-ish towards a stroller we'll have for a long time.

    We loved the Peg Perego Book stroller, and would have gone with that if we didn't get the Britax B-Safe/B-Agile combo in black.

  • We got the Citi Mini GT and will use an adapter to put our Peg carseat on it.  It is easy, just a little more expensive since it doesn't all come together.
  • No travel system - we have the Uppababy Vista and will get a carseat adaptor and use the Chicco Keyfit 30.

  • Double snap and go with graco carseats that snap in.

    Us too, we tested out more than I care to admit.  It was by far the easiest system we looked at.

  • We got the Graco Quatrro tour. Now I am not so sure I will like it though because the more I look at it it just looks so bulky and the stroller is so heavy and is going to be a challenge lifting it into the trunk of the car myself.

    We got the Britax b-Agile/b-Safe in red.

    same here.  I was sold when I didn't feel like I needed an engineering degree to figure it out. 

  • I think we decided on the Graco Fastaction Fold Click Connect Jogger Travel System. We wanted a jogger so we could take it camping and to the lake where we need all terrain tires. They have a set coming out March 31st, so we put that on our registry. They sell both the car seat and the jogger stroller now, but they aren't matching. We checked them out in the store. They seemed pretty cool!

    Just watched the demo video... OOOOooooh! That thing is cool. If we didn't need all terrain tires this one would be my first choice!
