Graco - Outpace LX Stroller

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.

I don’t have the name on me now-after all of our tons of research we landed on a graco that includes an infant car seat and a regular stroller seat that converts into a bassinet. It is amazing to not have a separate bassinet, and you can even convert it to bassinet while the kid is in it if they fall asleep. Great basket size for carrying around lots of stuff.

Highly recommend going to physical stores to touch, feel, push, and weigh. For us, the only real option in our area was Target, so we never really had the opportunity to try any high end brands. We went back to Target a total of 3 times before deciding for sure on our final choice, narrowing down each time and researching/reading reviews online inbetween visits. We ended up with the Graco Outpace stroller and Graco Snugride car seat. We liked the size and weight of the stroller (lighter than other travel systems) and overall details (leather handle, rubber wheels). I also knew I wanted an infant seat / travel system that clicked into strollers and car seat bases. Some people prefer to just go with a convertible car seat from the get-go. Baby due any day now so I can’t offer any real reviews, but that’s how we chose. We also seriously considered the Chicco Bravo and Mockingbird (both owned by friends of ours) but ended up with the Graco Outpace for the reasons mentioned above.

We got the Graco Outpace which is similar to the Chicco for our little one coming in a few weeks and like the style and ease of folding. Have a pram/cot attachment for it too

We didn’t do one with a bassinet. I purchased the Graco snugride snugfit elite 35 car seat and my neighbor gave me the stroller that the car seat clicks into. It’s just a frame. I think it’s an older model as the ones on Graco website are a bit nicer with cup holders lol. But it’s very similar to the snug rider elite stroller on their site currently. Then we were gifted the Graco Outpace LX for when she outgrows the car seat.

We aren't rich by any means and have been using our old Graco stroller from 2018 with our second baby (14 mos. now). All her clothes are hand-me-downs from big sister too. We can afford all new stuff but if everything is in good condition then why should I buy new stuff lol

I have a graco snug ride 30 lite with the outpace LX stroller travel system. Car seat clicks right into stroller and then when she’s old enough she can use the stroller as normal. It’s super light and the stroller is heavy duty for all terrain, super easy to push. With that stroller, any graco infant seat will fit in it so you can buy the stroller and car seat separate if there’s one you like better. I have a graco 4ever dlx 4 in 1 for when she grows out of her infant seat.

Man we bought our graco 3 wheeler one with the big wheels, we've taken that thing everywhere. Legit probably have like 500kms on it 😂
