Name the travel system you got and the pros and cons of it. I'm looking for something I can take out on the beach,up a trail,on gravel if needed, and nothing over 200. It needs to be able to roll on any type of surface other than water lol. I have convertable carseat but its not a carrier. Would I be better off getting travel system sticking the carrier in the trunk when needed for ex holidays, going to the store,doctor appt. I'm sooooooo confused help plz.

    What month can you set them in stroller???I went shopping today and I couldn't find anything I liked. I found a eddie baurns it was really nice but 220 something. My dad was little hesitante on buying it for me. So we looked around some more and came across another eddie baurns but I didn't like the color and it was almost 40 dollars cheaper. We were at toy rus and found a jogging stroller, which it looked like it would have no problem going up a trail. It was over 200 but it also came with 50 dollar gift card which could be used against the stroller. But my only worries about the stroller was it tipping over, or getting a flat tire and it bulky too. @2ndbutfirst.

    @jericka08 do you have any problems rolling on any types of surfaces?? . I live in the country a lot of our surfaces are rough and ragged. I don't wanna get something and have to drag it around. Is it bulky to put up ?

    I got the Chicco travel system. I got it because it's a good brand, has great reviews, user friendly, and the stroller is fairly light. It was $329.99 bit we got 20% off. Eddie Bauer was my next choice.

    We purchased thee graco lily... it wasn't a travel system but you can make into one which is more expensive sucks... but to me it was worth it.. its and urban light so its really light.. ihavent read any cons abt it... my baby isn't here yet so ihavent got to really ruff it up.. but so far it rolls smooth... we were gonna get an eddie bauer one but they're really heavy.. I say you visit websites or go into baby stores like USA baby and tell them exactly what you want and they will match your preferences.. im really picky and i had to go to abt 6 stores before I went to USA baby and told them what I wanted and walked out a happy mom to be lol :-)

    Thanks @everyone this all very helpful. Info I wish they would set up different foundation at the store to test the displays on . I know its going to roll smoothly on flat smooth surface lol. @jericka08 thanks you that's very helpful info. Have you seen the highchair that goes with it omgah its soooooo cute.
    @bluesberrysmom the reviews weren't bad on the chicco. My dad is the one buying it for me. I don't want to end up wasting his money if you know what I mean.
  • blueberrysmomblueberrysmom
    I know you said less than $200 but Chicco has a travel system for a little more. It looks really good. If you could possibly splurge I would get it.
