Disappointed
My baby is about to be 7 months so that’s how long I have had this set. Honestly, the car seat is pretty nice looks comfortable and clicks in base pretty easily. The stroller is what gives this set a bad rating. It is very wobbly with the car seat and bassinet attachments. The weight of my baby pushed the bassinet down where I laid his head so it was almost as if his head would sit lower than his body and it bounced a lot while on walks on just pavement. The stroller now has a loud squeak coming from the front tire and overall just has been awful. I wish we would have got something different for the price we paid. Definitely not worth the price.

Overpriced and dissapointed
Unfortunately, we’ve been really disappointed with this stroller overall, especially for the price. The car seat itself is decent, and the base works great — it’s simple and easy to use. However, the shade covering isn’t sturdy enough in mid-range positions. We found that it only stays fully pushed back or fully pulled forward, and when it’s pulled forward, it blocks the view of our infants head. As for the stroller, we did love having the bassinet feature for our newborn. But beyond that, there have been a lot of frustrations. The stroller is bulky, and the seats have to be completely removed from the frame in order to fold it up. Even folded, it takes up far too much space in the trunk of my car, leaving little to no room for groceries or our dog. Another major issue is that the stroller constantly rattles and shakes during walks. I purchased it with the expectation that it would handle bumpy terrain well, but that feature is definitely lacking. Overall, we expected much better quality and functionality for what we paid. At this price point, I would recommend purchasing a different, more compact option instead.

Lower Quality than previous graco models
does the job but overall extremely disappointed in the stroller. We used Graco for both of our other children so it made sense for our third. only one complaint for the car seat - the shade doesn't cover the baby super well. It could be wider to protect against sun. The car seat base is great.The only positives about the stroller are that it navigates fairly well and I loved the bassinet feature. Flaws for the stroller is that it is extremely wide, when it is folded, it barely fits in the trunk of my jeep grand Cherokee. The best way to store it in the trunk is to completely disassemble the seat from the base but that still takes up a good amount of space. when collapsing it if you do not lift the entire thing, the handle will get scratched on the ground. It's also extremely noisy on sidewalks over the cracks which is the main place we walk. The stroller visor window flap does not stay up to watch the child, which is minor but inconvenient. Overall, we were just extremely disappointed in the quality of this stroller for the price. I would highly recommend either spending more on a better quality product or spending less for something more convenient because this one is just a hassle.

Terrible Stroller
This is by far the worst stroller we have ever owned. The stroller does not fold up without taking it apart so you not only put the folded stroller section in your car but also the separate seat part. We drive an Expedition and it takes up a lot of room leaving little room for anything else. Secondly, it is very bumpy and does not ride smoothly at all. Very disappointing and highly recommend you look for a different stroller.

Wobbley! Shakes my baby
I purchased this item for my baby and used the stroller for the first time today and it wobbles bad enough to bother me while walking and shake my newborn left and right and disturb her! Not ideal and unacceptable from the graco brand at this price point

Great and affordable travel system
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This modes three in one platinum travel system With snug ride snug fit LX is a nice affordable travel system the mechanisms are similar to the popular luxury name car seat and the three wheels make it feel like a jogging stroller. The install was super fast and easy setting up. The stroller was a breeze and it fit my three month old and my three year-old the colors are very nice. I like the white wall tires on the stroller as welloverall a great affordable option if you’re looking for a travel system. I received an incentive to write this review.

Graco Modes 3 Elite Platinum
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Well my little grandson came for a visit. I was able to use the car seat. The base and the car seat fit in really well. Hooking up the seat wasn't too bad. It came with the extra car seat restraints that hook onto my actual car seat. It makes it feel really secure. I did have an issue extending the chest harness to fit him. But his sister showed me that under the car seat cover in a slit is the release button. After that I was able to buckle him in easily. The stroller worked the same way of securing him. I like there are chest pads on the strapping, giving some comfort for his chest. I felt the wheels moved really well but the front wheel doesn't spin so going around tight areas you have to lift the front wheel off the ground. Putting the stroller together was easy until it turned out the wheels needed to be on a specific side, then it was OK. I would be happy to tell my family and friends about this model. I received an incentive to write this review.

Rides and handles like a dream
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The quality of this I think is pretty good for the price and seems to match it accurately. Trying to find the lever to let out the straps in the car seat was a but tricky at first but we quickly adapted. The one thing this has going for it is the style points. I’d say it is one of the better looking strollers I’ve seen! Collapsing very easily and is quite light weight as far as strollers go. we also really like the features of the stroller as it seems to roll and handle well!

Convenient travel system at a fair price point
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This 3 wheel stroller is considered a lite stroller and it is definitely lighter than my primary stroller but it’s by no means a small travel stroller, it still takes up a lot of space in my trunk and not very light, it is very roomy which is perfect for my little guy who is 10 months old, the stroller has a weight limit of 30 pounds which is pretty low, it does fold pretty easily and there is plenty of storage underneath, as for the car seat the install was easy and it seems very spacious, the straps were very easy to adjust on my baby and I got him in quite easy and he fits great and comfortable in it even at 10 months old Overall, it’s an average travel system, it’s convenient and good price point, it is nice but not as sturdy as I would like, I feel like if I had my hands full I could easily turn the stroller over accidentally since it’s 3 wheels and “lightweight” I received an incentive to write this review.

Great for running errands
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I like how easy this stroller is to maneuver. It’s very compact and is a smooth ride. The one handed collapse is a must-have. It sits nice and flat in the trunk. My baby feels very secure in the car seat as well. This car seat/stroller combo is great for errands because of how quickly you can get the baby in and out of the vehicle, and into and out of the stroller. There is a basket underneath the stroller for items like your diaper bag and easy access when set up as an infant stroller. It is more difficult to access this storage area if you are using as a toddler stroller. I received an incentive to write this review.

Convenience and quality without breaking the bank
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I spent hours researching travel systems. It’s easy to go down a rabbit hole of reviews and quickly feel pressure to increase your budget beyond what is reasonable for you. This travel system finds a nice balance between affordability and quality. I really love the quality of the car seat, there’s nothing more important than safety when it comes to a car seat, and this one feels safe. Plus has the testing to back it up. A bonus is that it is lightweight and convenient. Its super easy to install and get everything fitted correctly. Plus it’s comfortable for my baby, she loves it. The stroller is good quality too. I’m 6ft tall and don’t have a problem pushing it around. It’s perfect for taking in the car to the store or walking on a paved path. The ability to click the car seat in seamlessly is amazing. I can’t wait for her to be old enough to use the toddler seat, as it looks great too. I received an incentive to write this review.

Sturdy and functional for baby
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This travel system is pretty dynamic. I love that everything attaches together or you can configure them individually. It did take longer than expected to put the stroller together as the instructions are a little hard to follow but once we got it done, the stroller seemed durable and sturdy. It rolls quite smooth! I was skeptical of the 3 wheels but it turns well and stays balanced. I like that the color is neutral so it can be used for another child if we have one. I also like that the car seat clips in and out of the base in the car for easy transport. I would definitely recommend this product. I received an incentive to write this review.

Graco Modes 3 lite platinum travel system- Gray
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Pros: It's easy to click the seat into place! The sun shades block a good amount of light. Infant seat has multiple height settings for up to 30lbs. The stroller rides smooth! And love the basket size underneath. Stroller has deep adult size cup holders. Cons: stroller is not as easy to close as other models. A button on the handle would have been nicer as apposed to having to bend down under the seat to close it. Not as impressed with the plush and buckles for the infant seat. I received an incentive to write this review.

Such a great travel system! Love it
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Wow! This Graco modes lite platinum travel system is much nicer than I anticipated. It is very well built and thought out. I love that the infant seat is able to click into the stroller. My son looks so comfortable in the car seat and it’s very easy to install and use. The directions to build the stroller were very straightforward. Usually I need my husband to help, but I put it all together alone. I absolutely love the features of the stroller seat. Not only does it recline all the way back into a bed, but the feet adjust up and down as well. The seat is able to switch both forward and rear facing which is a game changer. I love that it has an extended shade and a peakaboo hole to see inside the stroller. The wheels are big and beefy which make it easy to maneuver over different landscapes. It folds right in half and is light weight. Easy to close. The only thing I had a harder time with was getting the tray to unclip. I am sure it will get easier with practice.

Perfect from birth through toddlerhood!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We purchased this Graco modes 3 lite Platinum travel system for our 7-month-old baby. He's been using a bucket seat but we needed something that worked with a stroller. What we really like about this system is that it is perfect for this first year with this style car seat and how the car seat sits in the stroller to work as a Duo system until he outgrows the car seat! And my favorite part of the system is that the stroller seat itself can face forward for a toddler but can also face backward so that I can see my baby as I'm pushing it! So we are really going to be able to use this system solely to get us all the way from these early months to toddlerhood! He especially loves being a big boy and facing me as we walk!

Material quality is poor… not better finishing
Poor materials quality built…👎 unfortunately, the material quality fell far short of my standards. Despite the promising features and attractive price point, the poor craftsmanship and subpar materials make it a regrettable buy.

2 year long term report: great system!
We bought this travel system for our first son, who just turned 2. Most reviews are from people who just bought it, some haven't even truly tried it yet, so here is what I can say about 2 years of DAILY use. The car seat is lightweight and easy to use. Only complaint is that the handle bar needs to be put in each individual position to get all the way back or front. Not a big deal. Never had an accident, but always felt safe with it. The stroller is a true work horse. While this isn't the cheapest one on the market, we didn't want to spend too much money at first and go from there. Since then, we have logged about 2,500 (yes, 2.5k!) miles with the stroller on daily walks and errands. It moves easily, the car seat and stroller seat are easy to click in and remove, turn around, switch out, whatever you need. The stroller seat folds COMPLETELY flat, so great for naps. Here is the deal: it's not THE smoothest ride; doesn't fold down THE smallest; doesn't have THE biggest storage basket. BUT it does all those things pretty well, and that is a very rare case especially at this price point. We walk on gravel paths and terrible sidewalks and my kid has never complained about it being too bumpy. It folds down small enough to easily fit in my tiny sedan trunk with plenty room to spare for groceries. We do grocery runs and easily fit everything in the basket our family of 3 needs for a couple of days, plus a soccer ball and snacks. It's easy to push and steer even with one hand and fully loaded (or by my toddler). One suggestion for improvement: the peek-a-boo flap is just hanging loosely, so if it's windy it constantly moves open and closed by itself which can be annoying. I added some sticky velcro dots, problem solved. If you want a flashy show-off stroller that's the best at everything, this is not for you. If you need something virtually indestructible (2.5k miles, on all kinds of terrain, not even a squeaky wheel) that will get you where you need to go for years to come without fail, just get the Modes 3 Lite. We are now expecting no. 2 and I wish this existed as a double version.

Convenient
I really like the convenience of this stroller. It is very easy to pack up in the car. I do often have trouble lining up the car seat in the stroller, I wish that the guides on the side were either more obvious or easier to feel. Although I like how lightweight the stroller is, I feel like it could be sturdier. It seems very tippy when going over bumps.

It’s okay
My baby is now 7 months i like how convenient it is to put baby in with the car seat and to close the stroller is supper easy. The problem comes with the infant seat one of the straps adjusting clip thing broke and now idk what happened but the seat won’t go up it can only stay laying down i don’t know how to fix it. Closing the stroller with the attachment is harder and you need to make sure you don’t scratch the handle for that.
