I am a 3rd time mom, but it has been 5 years since my last baby. I wanted a car seat with a stroller that would be easy to use by myself and would be easy to install in the car. I also wanted a one with a good safety rating. So after reading multiple reviews and consumer reports on many different travel systems I found this one and went ahead and took the plunge, site unseen (they don't carry Chicco at our local walmart and I live hours away from a store that does). My baby is now 5 weeks old and I have been using the heck out of the system so here is what I think so far:Maclaren WDN12012, Baby Trend Expedition ELX, Maclaren 2012 , Mutsy 4 Rider , Chicco Cortina KeyFit , Canada Goose Baby, BOB Revolution SE, Valco Baby Latitude , iCandy Peach Stroller, Phil and Teds Explorer, UPPAbaby Cruz Stroller, Dream On Me Wanderer , Tike Tech Double All Terrain, Quinny BUZ3TRSTMR1, Quinny Dreami Bassinet, UPPAbaby Vista Stroller , Britax B-Scene, Peg-Perego Pliko, Baby Home Emotion , Valco Baby Tri-mode, Britax B-Ready Stroller, Mutsy 4Rider, Maclaren Quest Sport, Tike Tech X3 , Valco Baby Stroller, Baby Jogger BJ16210, Abiie G2G , Inglesina 2011 Zippy, Peg Perego 2012, Zooper 2011 Twist , Joovy Cocoonx2, Mia Moda Energi , phil teds Smart Buggy, Maclaren Techno XT , Quinny 2011 Mico , Eddie Bauer Trailmaker , Joovy Groove Umbrella , Baby Jogger BJ15240, Maclaren Techno Stroller XT, Graco Ready2Grow LX, Baby Jogger BJ15244 , Maclaren Globetrotter Stroller, 7 A.M.

Car seat pros:
The car seat is EASY take in and out of the base. I had a Graco Snuggle-ride with my last one and I thought that was easy but the Chicco blows it away. It was also super easy to install in my car and in my SUV. The clips to attach to the LATCH system and really easy to use and the level makes it easy to know you have a the proper angle for the seat. It was much more difficult with the Graco seat, that is for sure. The straps are easy to use and adjust and the car seat looks very nice and stylish. I got the Miro patterned fabric and it is lovely and gender neutral which was a big deal to me because this was a surprise baby. It just looks and feels to be of high quality.
Car seat cons:
This seat is heavy. I carry it a lot but I always opt to use the stroller with the car seat it I am going to be walking any short distance because the seat with my baby just seems like a lot to lug around. I know my Graco one wasn't this heavy. Also it doesn't fit into a shopping cart very easily making shopping with baby (without the assistance of another person) pretty difficult. I finally started just carrying my infant son with my baby K'tan and leaving the car seat in the car. Now you can turn the car seat sideways on top of the cart or fit it in the actual cart but that leaves little room for anything else and there is safety issues too. So if you are a single parent or don't have a lot of help with going grocery shopping this could be a concern for you while baby is small and can't sit up by themselves.

Stroller pros:
First off, I LOVE this stroller. I have NEVER had a stroller that is so easy to use and pushes through any terrain with such ease. I keep this stroller in the back of my vehicle at all times and I pull it out and use it so much. I can easily open this stroller with one hand and fold it with one hand. That is literally unheard of in stroller land, even with a cheap little umbrella stroller! I have taken this stroller on a nature path full of uneven rocky terrain without a hiccup, it rides so smooth. The car seat fits in so easily to the stroller making it basically effortless to get going, even when I have 2 older boys and a infant get around by myself. Also I am on the tall side (5'9") for a girl and I love the adjustable height of the handle - no longer will I kill my back pushing a stroller! I know when my kiddo outgrows the car seat we will still use this stroller for a few years. It has a nice big basket at the bottom, multiple drink holders, a snack tray and a small item tray for the parent too. I have honestly used this stroller way more than I used the Graco one the entire time I owned it. I think this stroller really makes the travel system. The car seat itself is great but the stroller really takes this system to another level. Did I mention how easy it is to open and fold the stroller and you can do it with one hand? Seriously I can't say enough about this stroller!
Stroller cons:
The only con I can find right now is that this stroller is massive! I have a Honda Pilot and it takes up a good chunk of my back storage area...and that is saying something. Someone with a smaller vehicle would probably need to see the stroller folded to tell if they are going to have room for it in their vehicle.

All in all this is a great system for myself but I don't think it would work for everyone with the weight of the car seat and how big the stroller is. Probably be best to view and get your hands on the system in person before buying.

All in all this is a great system for myself but I don't think it would work for everyone with the weight of the car seat and how big the stroller is. Probably be best to view and get your hands on the system in person before buying.
My husband and I had been test driving stroller systems for months before making our final decision. Originally, I wanted a jeep stroller with the big wheels, as we love taking walks in woody areas. But that wasn't practical for our sedan trunk space and they didn't have the best user reviews. My brother has a Britax stroller that they like, but they also bought a jogger. My husband and I wanted one stroller, before we switch to umbrella style, that would work almost everywhere. We narrowed our search down between the Graco and Chicco.
We went test driving again and I fell in love with how easily I could navigate this stroller. I am 5'2" and my husband is 6'1" so it was important that the handle bar was movable to adjust to either one of our heights. This stroller has built in shock absorbing system too. Something that the Graco didn't have that we were considering. I want the baby to have a smooth ride so it was important to me that our stroller had shocks. The Chicco also has a child tray and a mommy/daddy tray where you can store your keys in a compartment and cup holder for a small container. The basket storage is impossible to use with infants because, like most, you can't access it in the fully reclined position. This doesn't drive me crazy, like I have noticed it does some people. I would just buy a hook to put the diaper bag on the handle bar. Or, you could take the car seat out of the stroller momentarily in order to store bags from shopping in the storage bin.

I really like that this stroller fully reclines. I was amazed at how easy it was to eliminate so much competition based on this one feature. Like my brother's Britax that doesn't recline and costs more than the Chicco without any child tray or parent tray. I want a fully reclining stroller for diaper changes when we are out on walks. I am not going to put my baby on a public disgusting changing table. I am planning on using a portable changing pad that comes with any diaper bag and just laying it down on the stroller. There is a stroller that markets itself specifically on this one feature, but the truth is, you can do it with any fully reclining stroller.
