AMAZING
As a first time mom, I was so overwhelmed with finding a travel system that had everything I needed and I honestly didn’t know what exactly I was even going to need 😭 all I knew was that I wanted something very lightweight and that I could fold and unfold with one hand. I now have a 6 month old and I truly think we made such a good decision choosing this travel system. It’s lightweight, I can fold it up easily, it reclines almost flat so no need for a bassinet attachment, it’s beautiful, it has amazing sun coverage, and I LOVE that the car seat is baseless. I had never heard of this before but it makes it so easy to ride with family or friends. It also is easy to clip in and out and doesn’t wake baby. The only thing that could be improved is a larger storage basket at the bottom.

Love it! Everything I wanted and more. High quality all around, the stroller glides so smoothly, able to adjust everything to perfect size, color is so cute!! The setup took maybe 5 minutes, super easy to assemble. Also, it was delivered 3 days early, shipping was super fast!!

I love the carseat latch system, its great you dont need the additional base. perfect if you swit h cars around. the carseat attches pretty easily into the stroller. Canopy is not very sturdy, its fine but could be sturdier for putting a blanket in top. The bottom part is very small but can manage to fit diaper bag. It does take practice to open and close the stroller- however it is pretty light and then becomes easy to use!

Good but needs improvement
There are things that I really like about this travel system, but there are also things that I really don’t like about it. I’ll start with the pros: the color is a nice neutral, the wheels on the stroller move around easily, although they feel like cheap plastic and don’t travel well over gravel terrain. The canopy extends far for full coverage. The LATCH car seat is very convenient and easy to use. The overall look is nice and looks expensive. The cons: the car seat for a newborn-infant is terribly designed and lacking in detailed thought of design. There’s a gap in the cushion between the headrest and the seat so I had to insert a burp cloth to fill in the gap so my baby’s back isn’t bothered. The incline of the seat is not comfortable and my baby looks so uncomfortable and disturbed by it. I wish the seatbelt straps could extend further so I could lay them outside of the seat instead of them falling back into the seat which makes it difficult to place your baby into the seat when it’s underneath them. The buckles are hard to attach and click. I always struggle with getting them in and pushing it out. Also, getting the stroller open and close was very difficult. The buttons I kept pushing wouldn’t move the stroller so I had to struggle with it. They are not intuitive. Definitely need to keep practicing to get used to how the stroller works. Overall, it has potential to be great, but there’s definitely some design flaws and issues that needs improvement.

fave carseat
love it! afrer having this carseat/stroller for 4.5 months i can positively say its my favorite i love how light it is and the ease of being able to use it in any car with no base!!! I love the stroller because its not a pain to get in and out of my car and that it can lay down flat for bassinet mode the only thing I do not like about it is the space under the stroller literally cant put anything under it but it is what it is lol

My primary system
I got this as a gift for my baby shower last June. I had the baby in August so I've been using it for a little while now. This is my primary car seat and stroller for baby. It's perfect for me especially when I am out and about with baby on my own. We love the extended shade on both the stroller and carseat so the sun isn't in her face but she still gets a nice air flow. It's pretty easy to fold and fairly light weight. Doesn't take up the whole trunk space either which is great. The stroller pushes well and maneuvers easily but definitely does better on smooth surfaces. My biggest issue is I really really wish the undercarriage was bigger or there was more room between the seat and undercarriage. The diaper bag barely fits and if I clip it to the handle bar without baby in it the whole thing tips over. I also wish there was a tray on the stroller for baby when she transitions out of the carseat and into the front-facing stroller seat. The carseat is pretty simple. We really like not having to use a carseat base. I wish the warning labels weren't on the inside of the carseat fabric but otherwise it's very nice.

Love/Hate relationship
Here’s a polished paragraph-style review using all your points, balanced and honest: --- I’ve been using this stroller and car seat combo since October (almost four months now), and overall it’s been a love-and-hate experience. There’s a lot of excess fabric, which makes attaching the car seat to the stroller harder than it should be, and I have to push down pretty firmly just to get that single safety click on one side. The storage underneath is minimal—my diaper bag doesn’t fit, and it’s too heavy to hang from the handle safely. The cup holder constantly pops off, and the locking mechanism is frustrating; the button sticks almost every time, and I end up shaking and adjusting it just to open or close the stroller. There’s also no snack tray with a cup holder for the baby anymore, which is disappointing since this feature existed with my first child 12 years ago. The bassinet option isn’t anything special and barely gets used. On the positive side, the latch system for the car seat is incredibly convenient for switching between multiple cars without extra bases or constant reinstalling. The canopies on both the stroller and car seat offer great coverage, but they can also get in the way because of the bulk. I did add a parent caddy, which helps, but I still run out of storage quickly. Overall, the stroller feels a bit too lightweight and somewhat flimsy, and I honestly wish I had spent the extra money upfront for something with better quality.

Would highly reccomend
The stroller is so smooth/easy to steer, easy to fold/unfold, and high quality. The infant seat is also very high quality and the baseless feature is so easy to use! My baby loves the infant seat and seems very comfortable. Only downside is the basket is on the smaller side, but it’s a compact stroller so it makes sense. The basket does fit my dagne dover diaper bag, but once that’s in there that’s all that fits.

WORST PURCHASE I EVER MADE
I STRONGLY dislike this stroller & car seat. Since day 1 my newborn cried and screamed while in the car seat. Fast forward to 4 months she still screams and cries…we now use the stroller a lot more and it is very bad quality, it’s missing padding on the sides of the stroller. Every time my baby falls to the side she bangs her head on the metal frame. OVERALL NOT WORTH THE PRICE $5oo. I’ll go with Graco next time.

It is so convenient not moving a base from each vehicle.

I searched for months for a stroller and unfortunately this stroller is not what everyone said it was. It’s very poor quality the screw came out and the whole back side for the stroller no longer works and my baby is three months. The car seat is great but the stroller just seems so cheaply made and constructed. My sister has the bassinet one and it’s much better quality but not too much more so I’m not sure if it’s just this stroller that’s so defective but sometimes it jams and doesn’t fold or unfold the zipper and hems jam and are undoing. The coverings come loose and detach from the bolts. Overall the worst purchase I made.

Solid buy for on-the-job Parents
Love the flexibility it offers. Car seat can be placed in almost any vehicle in no time! Forget about bases, thing of the past, we are in 2025, almost 2026. Stroller folds quick and easy and doesn't occupy a lot of space. Takes about the same space as a carry-on bag. Have used it in rough terrain without issues, though, I strongly recommend against it! I don't really see how other users have so many issues but such is life. People will always find issues. Very importantly, enjoy the time with your baby, time flies.

Awful
Awful… Tire tread is already worn after using it 3x to walk my daughter from the car to class. Seat threads are unraveling. Latch system is sticking.
