I'm going to write the review I wish someone would have written for me when I first set out to buy strollers. In short, you're going to need three strollers. Get ready to invest $500 in strollers, and call it good to go. Any less, and you'll get what you pay for. Or worse yet, try a bunch of mid-priced strollers, and still not end up with what works.

The first stroller you'll need is an infant seat carrier that is incredibly lightweight and easy to fold apart and back together. I can't imagine what I would have done without my Baby Trend Snap-N-Go EX Universal Infant Car Seat Carrier. When they are tiny, you're going to spend all sorts of time lugging that infant carrier around. You literally need something that basically falls right open to toss that heavy seat in and run errands. I used this thing constantly, and it was well worth the investment.

I tried other similar infant carrier holder/carseat combinations such as the Graco Modes 3 Lite DLX Stroller, Includes Reversible Seat, Pierce and Evenflo Urbini Reversi Lightweight Stroller, but they both turned out to be a huge waste of money. The Graco reversible only works with their propriety travel system car seat, and the wheels are still plastic! No matter how tempting it may seem, don't settle for a regular sized plastic wheeled stroller no matter how many gadgets it might have.

The Evenflo was also great in theory, but a waste of money. Being able to interchange the carseat, and flip the baby forward and backward just does not matter all that much at all. Instead, you REALLY just need a very lightweight and portable universal infant carrier. That's all I used for the first six months of my daughter's life, because she was so little.

The next stroller you are going to need is a good jogging stroller. I love my JOOVY Zoom 360 Ultralight. In theory, you can get a carseat adapter for it. It has big wheels for walking off the postpartum weight, but it is still pretty compact and lightweight. I would get the Joovy Zoom 360 Ultralight Jogging Stroller, Large Canopy, Lightweight Jogger, Extra Large Air Filled Tires instead of the original ZOOM for sure. It is absolutely worth it to get the rain cover and the bigger canopy. There is nothing worse than going on a walk with the sun in your child's eyes most of the time.

That said, you're still going to need something more compact than your jogging stroller. Don't fall for the trick of getting a regular sized stroller instead. That's a huge waste of money. You already have your jogging stroller, and an infant seat carrier. When they are less than six months old, those two should do the trick. Once they get a little older, you'll need to replace that infant seat carrier with an umbrella stroller.

I tried the Cosco Umbrella Stroller with Canopy stroller. Another giant waste of money. I took it through airport security, and my daughter literally fell out of it onto the ground! I left it at my destination, and opted to carry her back through security the other way. Every parent thinks they need a 'regular' stroller, but what you actually need a shopping/airport/errand running stroller for your trunk. The jogging stroller can live in your garage for when you want to get your walk/run in. This second stroller needs to live in your car where you used to keep your infant carrier. It needs to have a five point harness, but it also needs a great canopy. That's my biggest complaint about the Zoom Ultralight 360: the canopy is worthless. It makes a huge difference. You also need it to be super compact. A stroller that is for the purpose of lugging around your baby needs to be small. Trust me, you'll pay all sorts of money for a 'regular' stroller, and it will sit there in your garage unused. Either you will use your jogging stroller to power walk/run, or you'll need something for on the run. That's really it.

I HIGHLY recommend Joovy Kooper Stroller, Lightweight Stroller, Compact Fold with Tray. It is the quintessential alternative to a 'regular' stroller. It fits in my subcompact Scion XD no problem, and I just push the button to unfold it in an instant. It folds right back up no problem. The trifold takes up less space than a cheap umbrella stroller. It glides through tiny aisles. There is nothing worse than trying to push a GIANT stroller in any store. This is the solution. It is way more than an umbrella stroller, but way more helpful than a 'normal' stroller. You don't need your stroller to make your baby recline, or turn around. You just need a place for a snack, a cup, a water bottle, and some shopping items below the cart. The wheels are big enough, and even though they are plastic, they are only going to be for running in and out of stores. You'll use your jogging stroller for gravel, cement, rough roads, etc. This just needs to get you in and out of the coffee shop without needing someone to help you hold the door.

And there you have it! This is the review I wish someone had written for me specifically when I set out on this incredibly expensive journey of finding a perfect stroller!

This is my first impression and my second kid. So for the first baby I mostly was looking for compact, easy strollers. However, I would go through them like nothing because none seemed to be the perfect one. This one may be it. It's not super light weight, BUT the seat comes out so the frame itself is super light. You can change the seat or the carseat which ever way you want or make it into a travel system. My tall 2 year old still fits in it and is very comfortable in it and I know that it is sturdy enough for her and baby sister to share later. I'm so happy with this purchase. One con is that it doesn't fold with the seat inside, so you have to take the seat out to fold, I don't know how I will feel about that later in the road.
EDIT: I figured out how to fold it with the seat. Amazing, not too bulky or heavy. Love it.

I like this stroller so far, its pretty neat & easy to use. However the box it came in was damaged with holes, and it was missing pieces to put together so I had to run around different stores finding parts since Graco & Amazon wouldn’t send me new parts.

So I was looking for a stroller lighter than our old Graco, this one is heavier and takes up even more trunk space. But, it rolls so nice and none of the strollers that fold small or are lightweight have all the things we wanted. We wanted front and rear facing handle, a big roomy under basket, ability to steer well both rear and front facing, a hood with almost complete shade and rain coverage, complete recline for naps, drink and snack holder tray for child and mom, comfy padded stroller seat, adjustable foot rest and smooth riding wheels with easy steering and this stroller is the only one that had it all. Even though it is bulky and heavy (not light at all) it really has everything, but headlights for night walks, so we are keeping it. It’s very deluxe for both parent and child. If you want a small lightweight stroller skip this, if you want an all day out with your baby and toddler stroller and everything you could want added on that stroller, get it, you won’t be disappointed. I’m giving 3 stars because the name of the stroller is very misleading and although the base folds flat enough those wheels are very big and the stroller seat sticks out like a car seat when folded. It’s not compact or small or light.

4 stars simply because the seat must be facing away to be folded or taken out and the difficulties of assembly. There are pins inserted into the wheel rod running from the two rear wheels that were a pain for me and not possible for my wife.

Other than that, it's very stylish and comfortable for my daughter. It's something she can grow in to and a stroller we will use for future children as well.

This is not a hiking or even light trail stroller. I recommend rubber tires for that but it is great for the light walk on even side walks or shopping trips for maneuverability through aisles. The large shade is also very thick keeping the sun from my daughter's face. She is very happy riding in this.

My wife and I are very happy with the purchase.

The stroller's brakes are AWFUL, it will just slide down and stop which is super hazardous if you're moving quickly. This happens almost every single time I use the stroller, it's very frustrating. WOULD NOT RECOMMEND this stroller. Should have spent more on this and gotten a Chicco product. I had a similar Graco combo with my first son and oh my goodness has the quality gone down in 5 years! Connecting the car seat to the stroller is usually not very smoothe. Takes several tries. I will say the one hand fold works as it is meant to. Overall the SnugRide35 is still nice.
