FastAction SE Stroller

I have the Graco FastAction SE from my first that I’m going to be using again! It was purchased a few years ago but I just looked and they’re still for sale. I purchased it specifically because it was super light and easy to fold/unfold quickly. It also wasn’t super expensive. The bucket seat clicks into it so baby is facing you until they outgrow that!

We asked for the nice three big wheel jogger graco on the register and got a hand-me-down super folder graco. We bought the seat and car base ourselves. Made the first year so much easier. Once kid could stand up (not walk) we got an “umbrella folding” stroller for short trips. It’s a lot of stuff I guess to store, but you just pick the best one for the expected job and it’s great.

Graco mom over here. Honestly, I didn’t try Uppa and I didn’t understand why they were so expensive. I have 2 graco strollers and both car seats were Graco. Everything was easy to use, the basket on my graco jogger was massive and great, and I had a smaller one for quick trips or travelling, which I recommend. The infant car seat was fantastic and obviously fit with both strollers. My baby has friends who had Uppa strollers and both babies have grown into wonderful toddlers. I just spent less money on a stroller. I used a halo bassinet for a bit then baby went to the crib.

Used for almost everything, the only thing worth splurging on is a BOB. Everything other than a jogging stroller is the same basic design. The move is to buy them used/cheap as possible, then you can buy multiple strollers that each meet a certain need for the same price as a new “jack of all trades” stroller that won’t be. We have a BOB all terrain (the big purchase, because we run with him) and then an ultra compact one for travel, we also had what was essentially a Graco cart that his car seat clipped into (but didn’t have a seat otherwise) for when he was <1 year.

Hi- mom to a 10 month old. We’ve loved our Graco system. The 3-4 way travel set is the way to go. Car seat, car seat base, bassinet, and stroller all comes in one box, $399. He’s finally outgrowing his car seat now but he’s also 99th percentile in height. And we just purchased the Graco toddler car seat, love it already!

We started with a Graco travel system, bought an umbrella stroller for indoors, found that both didnt turn well on slick floor inside stores. Bought a bugaboo lynx and got rid of both of the others. Our lynx comes in and out of the house since it turns much better than our cheap umbrella stroller did. It doesn't fold super small so you need decent trunk space but it's pretty lightweight so easy to pop in and out.

3, but now 2. One evenflo travel system which I sold then bought graco travel system then bought uppababy vista because baby (at 5 months) hated bassinet but couldn’t do full recline. I also wish I just went right to uppababy.
