Graco - Ready2Jet Compact Stroller

Get the Graco ready2jet stroller with one of the car seats instead. Fits the car seat and the stroller is so easy to use. The ready2jet is our single stroller instead of using our UB Vista as a single.

Stroller was such a lifesaver on our first airplane trip that we now have a compact folding travel stroller specifically to make traveling and airports easier. Some times that you may want to just contain the toddler and not have to freaking worry about them toddling off: -TSA/security. I babywear through TSA, but the second my stroller is cleared, baby is in the stroller so I can get the rest of our carry ons (and deal with the liquids testing for milk) more easily. -bathrooms. Way easier to deal with diapers and diaper bags and changes and *having a chance to go yourself* if nobody is making a break for it. -when the gate swarm starts forming. Lot easier to just contain toddler and avoid them getting squished or smacked by Karen's definitely-too-big carry on. -Waiting for checked luggage. I can stand with the stroller and carry ons and my husband can grab the checked bags (which never come up together) and kinda toss-roll them towards me. I can have both hands to catch it and get everything situated.

We also (now) have their ready to jet, if a travel stroller that works with the Graco travel system family winds up being important to you. Also 10/10.

It works with their infant bucket seats! I've seen it on display at a few targets if you wanted to see it in person. Just an option!

Mines walking, but we still use our stroller daily. We have a Graco Modes pramette and a Graco ready2jet. The modes one is nicer, good for long walks and park outings, etc. The ready2jet is good for flying (it fits in Delta and American airlines overhead bins!) and just quick errands, cause it fits in the car better. If you have a big car, then a double would probably be a good idea, but if space in a limited commodity in your car, I'd hold off getting something giant until you need it. Plus strollers have a limited lifespan, I know my best friend had to replace theirs between #2 and #3, just cause the frame was giving out from the beatings #1 and #2 subjected that poor stroller to.

Graco ready2jet. Again and again

Graco ready2jet

I just unpacked my Ready2Jet and it seems like a great stroller. It’s about 4 lbs lighter than my old stroller and the handle is great for tall people.

We had that stroller frame and loved it! However we just purchased the ready to jet travel stroller and I wish we would have started with that stroller. The ready to jet can have the car seat easily click in but can be used as the toddler seat for longer term use.

We just traveled with my 90th percentile (height/weight/head) 11 month old. We got the graco ready2jet from Costco and it did really well for us. We now use it when trunk space is limited or it’ll be tight where ever we are going.

I have it, can’t tell if I like it though.

I did ended up return it though, while light, it was a bit flimsy compared to the Summer by Ingenuity 3Dquickclose CS+ Compact Fold Stroller we ended up getting which was even cheaper. It weighs a few pounds more but the sturdiness is much better and stable. Costco does have the Ready2Jet on sale now for $109.99 if it helps.

I (very recently) have three: a regular stroller, a travel stroller, and a jogger. We have the mockingbird with the bassinet attachment, which we used until she got too long for it (around 3.5 mo). I bought it off fb from a mom who bought it thinking she’d walk a lot, but decided it was too cold. We also used the bassinet attachment on a stand and it was her bedside bassinet until she moved to her crib. We walked a lot and it’s still great with the rumble seat. When she was 3-ish months I bought the Graco Ready2Jet bc I knew we had a lot of travel coming up. I LOVE that thing. It’s so light compared to the mockingbird and my graco car seat clicks right in. I use it when I am shopping now, and we’ve taken it on flights, all over hawaii, and now all over japan. It’s the best. And last week, I picked up a secondhand jogger so my husband and I can take her on runs. She honestly still looks tiny in it, but it’s nice (for a well-used stroller). I will say, it’s wayyy harder to steer than my other strollers, and it’s HUGE—like, it seems wayyy bigger than my mockingbird. We’ll likely only use it to go running.

We have the second one, but not the DLX (but WITH the anti rebound bar). We really like it! We’ve transferred it between like 7 cars and never had an issue installing the base. It’s also super helpful to be able to install the car seat baseless with the seatbelt! I do not have that stroller, I got the mockingbird with a car seat attachment, BUT 3 months in we got the graco [ready2jet](https://a.co/d/6Rcdoyg) for our upcoming travels and it’s both my and my husband’s favorite stroller now. The car seat clicks in like the one you have here, but it also has a seat that baby can ride in til toddlerhood! It’s super light and we have taken it all over town, to hawaii and japan, and on planes, subways—it’s just the best. It’s not a fancy rolls-Royce style stroller, but it’s a damn good one!

Graco snugride (or any graco car seat) and the graco ready2jet. Car seat snaps into stroller w no attachments, stroller folds up small and light, and when baby gets bigger the stroller can be used as a toddler stroller. Also comes with a cup holder. For a diaper bag, either a tote with pouches or a backpack with NO flap over top— you want to be able to open and shut it one handed

The Graco Ready to Jet is a nice budget stroller.  It's much flimsier than the Minu though and doesn't fold or push nearly as nicely. If you don't need the Minu for flying it's a great choice for basic getting around town.  I will say that the two in store we tried were both busted so I would be worried about longevity. But for $75 who cares about it breaking.
