I got a Chicco mini bravo sport travel system. I like the car seat the stroller is pretty simple nothing fancy but that’s what I wanted. Haven’t out the stroller together yet so idk how heavy it is.
Then have a hand me down graco stroller from sister in law that has a bit more and is heavier.
regular and travel. Got the travel system bc I had to fly solo with baby unexpectedly. Honestly, I now just use the travel. The regular graco model I had was so heavy and such a hassle to get in and out of car. And the stupid brake was so hard to release. I love my chicco mini bravo! I can now do everything one handed, such a breeze! Highly recommend
chico’s mini travel system (mini bravo i think?). So easy to collapse one handed and with minimal effort. And easy to brake. I had a graco prior that I would struggle with to collapse and get in the car, and to brake. Huge difference for my body!
We have a couple stroller/wagons now... a Vista V3, a jogging stroller, a compact one made by Chicco, a Pivot Explore... We use the Pivot Explore the most now that we have 2 kids and the youngest is 1... it is great for off-road. When it gets tough, it is better in wagon mode since you're pulling up instead of pushing down. I have friends with the Cruz, and it is pretty similar to the Vista, which is pretty good on dirt and grass. The larger the wheels, the better it will be, so the jogging stroller is the best for rough terrain, but the wagon wins in soft stuff like sand. The Vista is pretty darn good though, and has more options vs the jogging stroller. The Chicco we have has small wheels and hasn't been used in months.
We used the infant seat and a little chicco trolley thing. Like a much smaller lightweight stroller. I was able to use the carrier fairly quickly but the combo was easier.
Thats a great deal! I say keep it. I debated getting a high end system, but in the end opted for two mid range strollers (and I don’t regret it! I got the chicco corso le, keyfit 35, and a Joie nutmeg) All of that was still cheaper than a high end stroller not to mention all the extra gizmos sold separately.
Id suggest picking out a carseat, then seeing what strollers are compatible. Then you don't need to worry about another adapter
I had a Chicco Bravo and it worked fine on sidewalks/side of the road in winter. To be clear I used it as a going for walks for fun stroller, not a heavy duty commuting stroller. But it was what I needed and cost effective ($200 vs the $1k+ top of the line strollers!). It also folded fine into my small car, and wasn't too annoying to carry up 3 porch steps
No clue about the bassinet but I just used the car seat with mine. By 8 months or so, baby liked sitting up and watching the world go by instead of sleeping anyways. Or honestly I wasn't going to "use up" a nap in the stroller. Strollers were for keeping baby occupied, naps at home so I could get stuff done! So never needed the bassinet

Travel-friendly, city-nimble, but tiny storage and struggles off-pavement.
