Summary: LOVE THIS STOLLER
Comment: This stroller is great. Best steering out of all stollers I've owned. I have a 10 mo old that I push around in this and he loves it. Most stollers don't allow for sitting up support and this one does. Seat adjust to great sitting up and lying down position. Love the canopy b/c it moves all the way forward without any effort to block light.
Best features- Love the fact that the seat can be turned around so my son can face me and still check out things around. Makes it easy to care for him on the go(dropped bottle, food, etc.). Big wheels in back with swival front make a huge difference in turning. Makes it easy to get through doors with one hand on the bar to move stoller and one on the door to open it. Thing turns on a dime. Basket below holds a bunch of bags and easy to get things in and out of. At the mall a couple of days ago and used it. Such great access compared to other strollers.
Worried but no big deal- opening and closing it and the weigh of 29 lbs. Both are not a issue. Practiced opening and closing it at home a couple of times and not a big deal once you understand how it works. 29 lbs is not that heavy. I think if anything, its make it very sturdy.
My last stoller (large one) was broken on a trip to FL when it was stored on the plane. Wheels were bowed and it would barely would go. Sturdy is huge on my list now and so far this stoller meets that.
My husband was impressed and actually pushes it around. Great stroller, great price. great job Kolcraft!!! PS Tons of compliments already and only had it for a couple of weeks.

Summary: Good Stroller
Comment: Have had the stroller for about a week now. Overall, it's not bad but there is room for improvement so I only give it three stars.
Pros:
Cost. It has decent features for the price
Reversible seat is very easy
Recline feature is simple
Comes with car seat adapter and cup holder
Latch to hold in place when folded
Unfolding doesn't seem to be an issue for me
Basket is huge
Cons:
Weight - as a dude I'll admit it is a bit heavy - they need to use aluminum and not metal.
Brakes are difficult to unlock/lock - gonna add grease to mine to help it some.
While it is a smooth ride you do need a bit of effort to push it. Right now it is not an issue but I wonder about when the kid is older/bigger.
"Chemical Smell" - I let it sit out for a day and don't notice it anymore.
The handle is curved instead of straight and takes bit of getting used to.
It came down to form, function, and cost. I am totally willing to spend the $$ to get a stroller that allows my son to face me. It was either spend the $$ or spend 60% less and get a stroller that does essentially the same thing. Sure it's not as sexy as others and is a few pounds heavier, but it works well. Besides if I decide in a month I hate it I only spent $160 instead of $500+.

Summary: Toxic smelling
Comment: I really wanted to like this stroller, but I have to agree with the guy who gave it one star. Besides it being almost impossible to unlock the wheel brakes, it smelled VERY strongly of chemicals. I couldn't put my baby in something so toxic smelling so I returned it and am still waiting for a refund. On the up side, I didn't think the fold/unfold was all that bad.

Summary: have a question
Comment: I now that stroller fits most car seats.
I want to buy a "Chicco key fit 30" car seat for this stroller.Have anyone know if there is defference between "chicco key fit" & "chicco key fit 30"?
Thank you!

Summary: love this stroller (except for the weight)
Comment: I got this stroller because I was sick of our light-weight stroller's short handle and bad handling. Both these problems were solved with this one! Actually, my favorite part about this stroller is the reversible seat. I LOVE being able to face my baby. I can easily see when the sun is in her eyes and move the canopy to accommodate her. She even likes to peek at me through the clear little window on the canopy. The canopy/sunshade is wonderful - you can move it and it's big too. The seat is super easy to remove. I even lift it off with her in it when she falls asleep and take her up to her crib. It's much less disturbing for my light-sleeper. I love the large, easily-accessible basket. The stroller was easy to assemble. I noticed a tear in the foot-rest portion, and after calling Kolcraft, they quickly sent me a replacement seat. It's easy to fold up. Now the negatives.... It's heavy. But I knew that and was ok with it. It's other features were worth it to me. It's not super-easy to unfold, it seems you have to push on the basket with your foot at a certain angle to unfold it. BUT I do it holding my baby using 1 hand and my foot and i eventually get it, so it's not that bad. And the snack tray is a bit high. It seems like she could bang her head on it if she's not harnessed in really tight and we hit a rough spot on the sidewalk. We actually just removed it since we don't really use it anyway. The canopy is kinda loud when you push it back or pull it forward (I only care when she's sleeping and it actually hasn't woken her up yet, it just seems like it will). Overall, i love this stroller. I was so happy to find a reversible seat for this price!
