Joie - Rue

What about the Joie Rue or Mint Latch Carseats and the Joie Ginger LX, it has a bassinet mode. Joie also has a good amount of strollers that offere different features. We started out looking at Chicco but soon we became disappointing in the types of strollers they offered and then found the Joie Lineup. Joie is owned by the same company that owns Graco and Nuna and are very well known in Europe. We ended up buying the Joie Mint Latch and Nutmeg combo from target so we have a small easy one hand fold stroller thats light and we also plan on picking up the Joie Ginger LX or new Ginger DLX to have the bassinet mode for a newborn and when we go to Disney World.

The Joie Rue car seat and Ginger Stroller/Travel system. This stroller has a flat bassinet to use when you don’t use the car seat, and that bassinet transforms to be the stroller seat sitting up as they get bigger. 10/10 would recommend. The flat part (in addition to being an actually safe sleep space for infants) works great as a changing table when you’re out or in a place with no changing table in the bathroom. My husband and I rave about it all the time.

I'm personally buying the joie ginger and rue travel system, and to be completely honest I chose it because I couldn't find an extra carseat base for the graco travel system I wanted 🤷🏾‍♀️. I spent months refining my registry and by the time I got to the carseat/Stroller I was just over it and picked one that had good ratings, was cute, had a video on how to put it together, and had an extra carseat base I could buy

We love our Joie Ginger! We got the Ginger LX with the Rue car seat combo, which has a base. They also have an option to pair it with the Mint, which is a baseless car seat. The LX stroller has a few more features but if you wanna save a little bit more you could get the Regular Ginger. They have a few other stroller models that are also worth looking at that are all a little different.

We loooove our Rava, but are so glad we didn’t spend $400 (at the time) on an infant seat since our baby outgrew it at 6 months, so that is something to consider! The Joie Rue is also super light weight but so much more cost effective for something you will only use for about a year if you’re lucky.

Joie rue or joie mint latch are great options with a travel system available as well

We have the Joie Mint and Hazel travel system and love them. Well built, great for the price only downside is the stroller may be a bulky for some people. My brother in law liked it so much they purchased one for their baby due later this year.

We have the mint and ginger and love it my baby is 5 months 96th percentile and has 4in left till she max’s out the height for the mint she’s still very comfortable in it it has the option to use the seatbelt install if you want instead of the latch system, but it’s idiot proof, the shade goes down to her toes I love that. The kava looks nice like the Nuna mix! I got the saffron for the car seat upgrade and can’t wait to use it it looks so nice!

I second the Joie Mint! We have the Joie Ginger for the travel system and also love that one. But the latch system is such a game changer.

Go to a store where you can physically touch it, roll it around, pick it up, fold it, etc. I went to target and did that. My husband and I both liked the Joie Ginger travel system the most, so that’s what we’re going to be getting.
