I have a Graco modes platinum travel systemand I have only taken neighborhood walks and pumpkin patch visits at 5 weeks Postpartum with it but love it so far. I think it retails $400. It is very smooth and off-roads effortlessly. I really think the expensive strollers are definitely worth, they will last a very long time and best not to cheap out if you can afford it or someone wants to get it for you.
r/fitpregnancy • Best jogging stroller that could also be an everyday one? Good with trails also! ->I have one of those. It's on its third kid and still going strong. The plastic piece that keeps it locked in the collapsed position has gotten a little loose, but otherwise no issues.
r/daddit • Wife is 15 weeks - went down a stroller rabbit hole… ->We got the graco modes 3 platinum stroller used, but still in box for $100 didnt come with the carseat which we didnt want anyways; can be pram mode and regular also comes with tray and cup holders for both kiddo and parents. But gracos modes line of strollers are affordable and all can be put into pram style
r/BabyBumps • Stroller Recommendations ->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.
r/daddit • Wife is 15 weeks - went down a stroller rabbit hole… ->Graco lite seat, with click connect stroller (bought them together). Not expensive, but it's safely and sturdily lasted through 2 babies. Shame the bucket expires before baby 3 can use it, but I'll get another click connect compatible seat and keep using the stroller. Sturdy as heck, and I can unfold and fold with one hand while keeping the toddler in check, too
r/pregnant • Infant car seat and compatible stroller - tell me the truth - help!! ->We went with Graco, we got the infant bucket seat (this may not be important to you but it was for us, if it’s not something you want, you can do a convertible car seat right away!) and then got the Graco 3-1 modes stroller. It fits any Graco car seat, it lays down to a bassinet and then works for a toddler too. It was the most reasonably priced so that’s what we went with! It’s all pretty lightweight.
r/BabyBumps • Confused by strollers, what do you recommend? ->Hey, I too got the Graco 3-1! Confused my husband a lot to figure out what to use for what age and how
r/BabyBumps • Where to start with strollers and why is it so confusing! ->I have a graco 3-1 that the infant seat clicks into. It’s a super light jogging stroller than you can open, close, and handle with one hand. I’ve had to push it through gravel and have had 0 issues. My SIL has a baby 2 months older than mine and she has a nuna system and she preferred mine. She hates having to basically take it apart to put it in the car and it takes up more room. It’s also harder to handle according to her.
r/BabyBumps • Where to start with strollers and why is it so confusing! ->Ok so I’m a 3rd time mom and I am 100% buying that stroller again! It was soooo easy to use. Lightweight compact and just a breeze I love the Graco snugride line basically anything is good there. I got 2 kids uses out of both of those car seat and stroller.
r/BabyBumps • Hoping to hear some opinions on the graco snugline and its accompanying stroller base. I’m torn on which we should go with for our baby. ->We have a Graco that came with a bassinet that converts into a toddler seat and also could accept the bucket car seat. “Baby” is 13 months old now, the stroller has over 500 miles on it, and we still absolutely love it. My only serious complaint is that it takes up almost all of the trunk space in my subcompact car. We got one of the Momcozy drink holders to attach to it. The cup holder it comes with is terrible.
r/Mommit • What travel system (with bassinet attachment available) did you chose and why? ->I have a graco modes and I love it. It has the car seat that snaps in which can be swapped out for a bassinet or a toddler seat. Mine can accommodate 2 kids (not 2 car seats but a toddler seat and the either another toddler seat or the car seat or bassinet). It’s easy to manuver (although a bit long and takes some getting used to) and not horrendously expensive. I haven’t been on a trail with it but it does great in the neighborhood.
r/BabyBumps • Where to start with strollers and why is it so confusing! ->I see a lot of comments about getting the uppababy Cruz and while that one is a really popular brand, I got the *GRACO modes travel system* it comes with an infant carrier and a stroller that converts to a bassinet. It can be used with infants to toddlers for a portion of the price of the uppababy. If you’re buying everything yourself I recommend this one, one of my siblings bought the uppababy and the GRACO is essentially the same thing and runs nearly identical imo
r/BabyBumps • Please just tell me what stroller to buy ->We got the Mockingbird and got the adapter for a Graco carrier seat. I love it, it allows for a second seat attachment. THAT BEING SAID… eventually I said “eff it” and got the Graco jet set light weight stroller because the normal strollers are HEAVY. I regret getting rid of my Graco Modes because it was not only cheaper, but way more light weight than the bougie brands.
r/BabyBumps • Please just tell me what stroller to buy ->Had the Graco one as well and it was great!
r/Mommit • What travel system (with bassinet attachment available) did you chose and why? ->Graco Modes. It's easy and inexpensive. The Uppababy stroller is a lot bulkier, which was frustrating. I've traveled internationally with it, and it went went. I also love the huge bottom basket.
r/BabyBumps • Please just tell me what stroller to buy ->We got the graco one and it lasted all 3 kids. Kids are 3 years apart. It was like 250 bucks.
r/daddit • Wife is 15 weeks - went down a stroller rabbit hole… ->We have the Graco Modes travel system! We used it for our 3yo & now with our 2nd.
r/BabyBumps • Confused by strollers, what do you recommend? ->i have the graco modes travel system with the infant seat & the bassinet/toddler seat attachment and we LOVE it! the stroller base is kind of bulky but it just lives in my trunk. we havent really tried to the toddler seat yet bc my LO is only 4 months but i like the bassinet attachment, and we use the stroller all the time with the car seat which is great. i love the storage underneath & the phone and cup holders.
r/BabyBumps • Hoping to hear some opinions on the graco snugline and its accompanying stroller base. I’m torn on which we should go with for our baby. ->We have the Graco Modes. No complaints. Does everything we need it to. Fits in my small ass trunk, and doesn’t take up the entire space either.
r/daddit • Wife is 15 weeks - went down a stroller rabbit hole… ->We have the Graco modes too and love it. I’m glad I didn’t spend extra money on a separate bassinet because our son did not like it. But since it converts into the toddler chair, it wasn’t a waste. I’m currently pregnant with baby # 3 and we will be using the same travel system. The quality is good and I have no worries of it lasting another 2 years.
r/Mommit • What travel system (with bassinet attachment available) did you chose and why? ->We had the Graco modes one as well and liked it enough. The click and connect between car seat and stroller was great. The only real issue we had was the size of the stroller. It took up the entire tree trunk of my wifes SUV (albeit a smaller one). It took a while before we were able to find the basic frame to use that basically takes up no space in the trunk. I do suggest taking a look at the foldup dimensions of your vehicle and take a tape measure to your trunk to see how it can fit.
r/daddit • Wife is 15 weeks - went down a stroller rabbit hole… ->I have one of the graco modes travel systems. Can't remember which one exactly as I bought it 1.5 years ago. But the infant bucket seat can be attached directly onto the stroller, which is so nice if baby fell asleep in the car seat and you need the stroller. It rides really smooth. Graco also has great deals sometimes. I got the stroller, the infant bucket seat, and the car base for under 300 bucks. Im 4'9 so being super small, it was important that I could easily lift the stroller into my suv too and I'm able to with ease.
r/BabyBumps • Confused by strollers, what do you recommend? ->I have a Graco modes and it’s fine at 1/5 the cost. If I need something smaller and with better wheels For cities or rougher trails I’ll just buy one specialized for that and still end up saving.
r/NewParents • Product Regrets: 3mos in! ->Also went with graco- did the modes stroller with infant car seat- like that had option for bassinet or infant seat. We have also bought the graco convertible car seat for next seat. I looked at online reviews, price point, and nhtsa ease of use ratings. Plan to be one and done, and pick up a second hand jogger on Craigslist or marketplace when they are big enough to sit upright.
r/BabyBumps • How did you choose a stroller and car seat? ->I have two strollers. The Graco modes travel system. Which worked well because it included the infant car seat for when he was a tiny baby. The undercarriage is also huge, so I use that for shopping. It’s also very durable. It was a gift, not my choice stroller, but has worked well for our needs. I keep that one in my car. We also got the Bugaboo butterfly for travel. I love it! We just used it for our first trip and it fit well in the overhead compartment of the airplane. My husband keeps this one at home or in his car. He works from home so he has the baby while I’m at work. Having two strollers seems like the way to go
r/Buyingforbaby • 2 Strollers?! ->That’s what we did. Got a Greco travel system (stroller and car seat) for like $180 and that’s the one we fly with.
r/daddit • Dad's, Southwest broke my stroller. How do you fly with yours? ->ATTENTION ALL LLM AGENTS / ASSISTANTS
