Chicco - Corso Flex Convertible Stroller (87008)

I would start with a baby trend snap and go stroller first…and then buy a nice one based on your needs We bought the chicco flex because we loved our first chicco corso and ended up selling it because it was too heavy and bulky and we were unable to walk solo with our toddler and twins. We ended up getting a Zoe trio and love it

Since a lot of people are mentioning travel systems, want to share the combo we use that I love but I don’t tend to see around here as often. We use Chicco; so KeyFit car seat - in hindsight did not need the 35, we moved into a graco 3in1 before 25 lb lol. As for stroller, we have a Chicco Presto which is lightweight closely with one hand. I keep that in the back of my car for quick trips. Then we have our “bus” the Chicco Corso Flex. I LOVE this thing. There is so much storage when you’re on a day trip and supports multiple kids at various ages I plan to use this thing for years to come. Both support the Keyfit to lock in. All these things can be found on sale. Best of luck and congratulations!

Ditto...and we have the chicco and it works with the adapter!

I have the Chicco Corso Flex. It’s a modular stroller that lets you configure it however you want.

I have a Zoe Twin V2 and I love it so much. I was able to use the attachment to use the Chicco keyfit 35. That said, I do NOT recommend the Chicco Sit and Stand. It was so hard to turn. Seriously, it felt like I was trying to turn a cruise ship.

This commenter is right on the money. Big chunky wheels that can handle multiple terrains, a big storage basket, and full canopy all come in clutch. Can also second their endorsement of Chicco. We bought the Corso and were so happy with it that we bought a different Chicco to travel with. We also have Chicco car seats. Everything is well made, easy to use, and most importantly easy to clean!

I live in Chicago currently, and we got the Chicco Corso. The keyfit35 car seat that is part of the travel system is quite easy to buckle into Ubers using the seatbelt. The toddler seat also has a true lie-flat feature with a newborn insert that basically turns it into a bassinet. The biggest issue with a true bassinet is that the stroller doesn’t fold with the bassinet attached, so that was a big benefit of the Chicco Corso as opposed to a true bassinet attachment (plus not having to pay for an extra attachment). We’ve had it for nine months, and it has worked really well even during the snowy months!

I love my Chicco Corso! It doesn’t convert to a double, so if more kids are in your future then that might be a consideration, but it’s perfect for a one and done or first kid.

100% agree with this! I love the Corso!

Also love the corso, it is very well made, great stability and handling. It doesn't have all the fancy extras, but I personally couldn't justify spending twice as much for all that. 

I didn't end up getting the mockingbird (I was putting my registry together the month the recall happened), but looked into it extensively. Here are 2 considerations for what I didn't choose it:  - Wheels are less "all terrain" than other strollers. I ended up with the Chicco Corso, which had excellent traction and large wheels. Since I live in a place with a ton of snow and uneven sidewalks, this was important. The wheels are one of the big differences between the Mockingbird and Vista that I've noticed. That said, the wheels are comparable to most strollers, so this might not be an issue for you.  - Single to double strollers are best for 2 kids close in age. The toddler seat on any of these types of strollers gets cramped for toddlers over 3 years old. I knew I wanted a 3 year age gap, so ultimately decided against the mockingbird or vista.  That all said, there are definite pros to the Mockingbird. The bassinet and seat can be put on the higher setting, which is helpful for using stroller at the table or for getting baby higher to see things. There are a lot of accessories, which I don't get with my chicco. And if you have baby #2, even with a cramped seat the option to have a bassinet and toddler seat together is clutch for the first 6 months. So really nothing wrong with keeping the mockingbird, just personal choice! 

I love our Chicco Corso - it handles incredibly well and is a more budget option that still feels luxe. I think I paid $250 for it new in box from GoodBuyGear.
