We loved the stroller right away and still love it. The stroller is amazing and I fully recommend it. However, the infant car seat was terrible. When our son was about 3 months old we started to notice that the handle mechanism was getting really difficult to use. We had to really finesse the buttons to lift or lower the handle. The problem worsened over the next few months and we became pretty annoyed. We called Baby Trend and they promised to return calls and to review the case all with no response over several weeks. The representatives, while friendly enough, didn't seem to understand what I was talking about and I was asked several times whether I had handled the seat too roughly. That I did not appreciate. The bottom line was that I had purchased a product and expected it to function properly. They told me that I could send the car seat in to them and that they would have a look at it to determine whether they'd be willing to fix it or not. That process was to take up to SIX weeks. Was I expected to buy an additional car seat to cart my infant around for six weeks? The issue was never resolved.

Also, we started to notice a red mark on our son's lower back each time we took him out of the car seat. We inspected to seat to find the source and sure enough the comfort foam only went down to about the top of his hips then ended creating a gap. There was no support for his lower back. This was causing his lower back and bum to fall into the gap while the bottom of the foam pressed into his back making red marks. We finally decided to buy a Britax convertible seat that was appropriate for his size/age/etc.
For our next child we will buy a Britax infant seat as we have been very pleased with the convertible seat as well as Britax's customer service.
Now, the STROLLER: This jogging stroller is wonderful! We LOVE it and use it a lot. I have used a BOB jogging stroller and found it great too but for the extreme price it just isn't that much better than the Baby Trend, which is funny because I think BOB is the same company as Britax and as I said, we love Britax!KidsEmbrace Combination, Quinny CV078BIK, Safety 1st Aerolite, Phil Teds Explorer, Evenflo Serenade Infant, Peg Perego Duette , Quinny CV080RLRTRV , Guide 65, Safety 1st Aerolite, Graco Zooland SnugRide, Safety 1st Able 65, Baby Trend Flex Loc , Quinny CV080RKBTRV, Graco Snugride Infant , Kiddy Cruiserfix Pro, Clek Olli Booster, The First Years Via, Graco - Spree Travel , Britax E9LD22QKIT1 , Baby Trend Flex Loc, Baby Trend Expedition, Chicco KeyFit 22, Graco Snug Ride 35 , Graco Trekko Stroller , Clek Olli Backless Booster, Graco Flip It Travel , Evenflo Momentum 65, Orbit Baby Toddler , Chicco Cortina Keyfit 30, Peg Perego Book Stroller, Quinny CV078BFO, Symphony 65 E3, Quinny CV080BFYKT2, Twingo Group 123, Britax Frontier Booster, BOB Revolution SE , Britax B-Agile Stroller, Jeep Liberty Limited , Schwinn Turismo, Graco RoomFor2, UPPAbaby G-Luxe , Graco Spree Travel, Britax B-Ready , Graco Alano Travel , Graco Duoglider LX , Chicco Cortina Keyfit, Graco Quattro Tour , Baby Jogger 2012, BOB Revolution CE , 7A.M.

My advice is to buy the Baby Trend jogging stroller but stay away from the infant car seat! Try to find the stroller on its own.
After having a traditional stroller travel system (also Baby Trend), we decided to go for a jogger system with the birth of our 3rd child. I must say I can't believe we didn't go for a jogger system 6 years ago. It's very sturdy built, lightweight and looks awesome.
A huge plus is this newer EX flex-loc seat will work with our older flex-loc bases. We were worried that we would need to buy another base(we need an extra base for our other car), but are older base works fine.
The stroller was a piece of cake to put together and it folds up easily. Don't pay any attention to reviews that say it is difficult to fold up, manuever, etc. It's very lightweight and manuevers smoothly. It has a nice handle grip and plenty of storage space for drinks, keys, bags under the seat, etc.
I just dropped this thing off at a second-hands-goods store (for babies) and I was glad, glad, glad to get rid of this thing. I bought this hoping for an everyday, go-to stroller. This is NOT that stroller.

Concerning the Stroller:
Pros:
- Thanks to the inflatable tires, the ride can be very smooth.
- Three-wheeled design turns on dime; this is a very nimble stroller.
- Never had a problem turning: turns were very reliable and always smooth.
- Front wheel can be locked into forward-only position.
- Cup Holders and Parent's console rock.
- Comfortable Handlebars: easy to hold and steer with one hand.
- With the exception of the rocking issue (see cons below) this feels "moderately well built:" Ok, perhaps decent, but not great. Some parts of the frame felt dead on, but many of the materials and secondary components feel like below average or off-the-shelf materials (excepting the frame it feels like it could have been put together with odd parts you might find at a Walmart).
- Ample storage with adequate (not excellent) access.
