[GRACO MODES NEST](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07Y5X7N27?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share) This is what we went for with our newborn it’s really easy to use and very portable and will grow with them. So far it’s been great with everyday walking around the wheels feel smooth and is relatively lightweight!
Love mine too, although I can't speak on the car seat as we have a convertible and never used the infant seat. But the bassinet has worked great for us
Ive had great experiences with my Graco gear, to each their own

I love my nest. Baby is 5 months old and we live in the city so we use it almost everyday. The bassinet has gotten lots of use and we just made it into a kid seat and he's loving that too. We have the slide to me, so you can position the seat as high as you want, which in baby stages is pretty high so they're within reach. When he's big enough to get in and out well be able to lower it. Love that feature
Been using Graco nest travel system. Can be bassinet for newborn too
I have a Graco nest and the seat converts into a bassinet. It was $300 for the whole thing
Also had nest, love it. Used the bassinet all the time (although we didn't have an infant seat so couldn't use the stroller at all without the bassinet. Ymmv) he was a winter baby but we still walked all the time
Same here. Quick change into bassinet mode for diaper changes is super handy
I ended up getting the graco prammette system. Pretty practical travel system, the bassinet turns into a seat once baby gets bigger and you can use the car seat on it. I do like it and we will be using it until baby grows out of it but there are some things I don’t love about it. The bassinet part seems a little wobbly? It has one main connection to the stroller and it’s in the middle so sometimes it felt like it moved up and down too much when my baby was a newborn. It’s also really annoying to unfold, the clasp to lock and unlock it from folded position is on the side and it’s kinda of hard to unfold. You have to set it against the floor or there’s too much pressure on the latch and it won’t unclip. Honestly I’m the only one who can do it without needing to put it on the ground. My mom can’t unfold it and my husband struggles with it. It’s also kind of a weird bulky shape and way to big to fold with the prammette portion and only folds with it attached if it’s in toddler seat mode
I second Graco! I have the infant car seat (Snugride Snugfit DLX - $250) and the stroller that transforms into a pram (Modes Pramette - $270) and it has come in so handy!!! My baby loves laying in the pram on our walks and watching the birds. My sister has also bought Graco’s infant car seats, convertible car seats, regular stroller, and double stroller! She has had a great experience with their customer service as well. I got mine for my baby shower but Graco has deals often. If you’re in the US, Target has a car seat trade-in event twice a year as well so if you know anyone with an old or expired car seat, you can exchange it for 20% off a new car seat/stroller!
I’m 4’11”, I have to Graco modes nest. It does have an adjustable height for the seat but I always keep it highest up tbh. Car seats are always gonna be bulky, infant ones. The stroller has clip ins for the car seat so I don’t typically carry it around much.
I just gave up researching and driving myself crazy and got the graco modes nest travel system. Is basic and has everything I wanted and not hella expensive haha
We had a Graco Nest Modes that had a bassinet way to attach the toddler chair. It was really nice to have when she was a newborn and smaller. She could stretch out unlike if she was just in the car seat all the time. It was really nice for her to nap in on walks. Once she hit like 4 months, she preferred to be to look around and see something besides up, but we love the stroller.
Graco has one that the seat itself becomes the bassinet. We had no issues with that one, graco modes nest. We only switched to mockingbird because we needed a stroller than can convert to a double.
I had the modes nest, and I don’t remember ever having a problem with the wheels. We used the bassinet probably until he was starting to sit up. It was nice that the bassinet part turned into the seat. There were many times we were out that we quickly converted it back to the bassinet setting to do a quick diaper change before going back to the seat setting.
I liked our graco modes nest. The seat turns into a bassinet and can also attach an infant bucket seat. If you get the travel system, it also comes with the bucket seat.
As a FTM it took me FOREVER to decide what to get. I decided on the Graco Modes Nest Travel System with the Graco SnugRide DLX car seat and it’s my favorite baby purchase. I love that the car seat attaches to the stroller so if I’m running quick errands I don’t have to take her in and out. She’s 9 months old now and still fits in the car seat and probably will until she’s a year old. One of the pieces comes out after she was 12+ pounds and the other head piece stays in until I have to move the straps up to the highest hole. I took the shoulder pads off as well but that’s a personal preference. Some car seats require them to stay on but this one didn’t mention it in the manual so I just removed them. I also like it because not that heavy. It also doesn’t take up a ton of room in my car. I also love that it has the bassinet that also turns into a regular stroller seat, we are finally using that part as she’s gotten older. It also has a ton of room in the bottom of the stroller for outings and it’s not heavy either, easy to get in and out of the car. I’d recommend this travel system over and over. I think it’s a great price for what you get. We are going to use the car seat for baby #2 on the way.
I absolutely love the Graco modes nest. Loved the bassinet option. Being able to turn it facing me or away. It was a travel system. Not crazy expensive and it lasted
