Graco - FastAction Jogger LX Stroller

With my first we got the Graco Jogger LX with the Graco Snugride Snugfit DLX carseat and loved this combo. We still love this stroller - easy to fold, love that it has air filled rubber tires. We are expecting #2 with a 15 month age gap so needed to upgrade our stroller to accommodate and bought the Cyber Gazelle after much research. It has an adapter so we can still use the Graco carseat and will buy a second seat once #2 gets a little bigger. It had one of the higher weight limits for the second seat and good reviews on being able to steer it with two children. Magically saw the black on sale for $350 last week on Amazon, will receive on Thursday!

Yes, I love having carseat compatibility with my stroller! We have the Graco snug ride snug fit DLX with the Graco Fastaction Jogger, we've used this with both kids and I love the ease it folds up, and the "real" tires which helps on all terrain. We also have the Cyber Gazelle with Graco adapter, because we have 2 under 2 and sometimes need the double stroller option. This stroller is so smooth and turns really easily even with one hand but is not so great in loose rocks or dirt. It really isn't a big deal to pop the carseat in to the stroller at home or get baby ready in the carseat and then take him out to the garage to pop it in when we go for walks. I like it because he then faces me, plus most strollers are not recommended until at least 6 months of age on their own so you either need to use a carseat or one with a bassinet attachment.

We did graco quick connect car seat and jogging stroller. Worked well for our two kids.

FTM and couldn’t convince myself that I need to spend over $1000. We went with the Graco FastAction Jogger LX travel system. It’s about $700 on Amazon and includes infant car seat. It’s on the bigger side compared to other strollers but idc tbh, it folds up super easy but it’s a bit heavy but nothing you can’t handle. It’s great for all terrain (I still need to test it out in the snow). The storage bin underneath is really big and it comes with cup holders. It’s great for walks with my dog! I think cons are it’s bigger so not ideal in super tight spaces - like I don’t love bringing it to the mall, it’s fine but just tight in some small stores, I’d rather just put him in my mabe carrier. I also don’t think this model is compatible with their bassinet add on, but I personally think the bassinets are a money grab and not necessary. Graco is a great brand so maybe even look into their other models too if you want something smaller

Also another con is it’s not great for like air travel bc it’s so big, I mean you could since it folds up fine but personally I’ll be buying a cheaper umbrella stroller for air travel.

We started with the Graco fast action jogger. That thing was a beast and because it used actual bicycle wheels they rolled smooth and held up to grass, curbs, dirt paths etc. Once we had our second we got the Graco Duo glider. Another great stroller that held up to 3 kids (we usually had 2 in the stroller and sometimes 1standing on the footpad in the back. Both strollers are on the heavier side but both are still being passed through the friend group. I think the double is on its 3rd set of kids. We eventually got the wonderful 4 seater with upgraded wheels. It's nice and I wish we went to that after the jogger just so we got more use out of it. If you plan on having multiple kids, consider the wagon if you have the space.

Neat graphic! I ignored all suggestions, got the cheap Graco Fast Action Jogger, and it has done just fine 😆

Another Graco fan. We got the fast action jogging stroller and we can use it with the car seat, it’s very smooth, and it’s well put together. It is heavy though and we live in a walk up apartment so we picked up the ready 2 jet for quick trips and it’s been great also. Not necessarily an all-day, going to be outside for hours situation but for running errands and shorter walks it’s easy to handle, folds into a shape that’s manageable with one hand, and light enough that I can easily manage it and the bucket seat at the same time up the stairs.

We use the Graco FastAction Jogger Stroller. It fits in our little car and I like unclicking her car seat from the base in the car straight to the stroller, and I can keep using it as she gets bigger. I was lucky though and had a bunch of gift cards from the baby shower and got the stroller and the seat on sale.

Not crazy but unconventional for sure. I had my baby in December and did the baby wearing but I ended up being so worried about slipping on ice that I felt safer with a stroller. Yes they can be bulky but we stuck with the graco brand for click and connect so we could just throw the base in the car and attach his carseat if we went shopping. We have since moved on to a stroller wagon for bigger outings like the zoo and boy its great.

We had a graco with the “click and connect”, being able to pull the car seat out of the base with a lever and drop it in the stroller, then have it lock in was worth its weight in gold. We took it everywhere with both kids, fairs, beach, hiking trails, as well as city/shopping.

Yes, almost every evening for walks at home. We have the graco click connect or something like that (it was second hand). It’s a bus to push around but it works for us around here. When we’re out and about we use a small single and carry baby in a carrier. (19m and 6m)
