Great stroller but confusing and incomplete instructions.
By byrd
It's a VERY NICE stroller, but I'm docking a star for the simple fact that it's not very intuitive to operate, and because it has a lot of features and it converts from 'infant' mode to 'toddler' mode, that's important. Whats worse, the instructions that come with it are incomplete. They skip over important details like, 'how to convert to toddler mode' and 'How to adjust the straps"I really felt like half the instructions to operate this thing were just left out.Other than THAT... It's a sturdy and well built stroller.

Great Stroller!
By Kate
I did a lot of research before purchasing this stroller and I am very happy with my decision!!! First of all the price is great because you can not get a decent bassinet stroller for a good price anywhere. I love the many features this stroller has. The color that I purchased is blue and the blue online is a little brighter than the actual stroller but I like it more that way. When I received the stroller I was surprised how small the box was. The assembly was quick and easy. I agree with a review from here that the instructions are incomplete and you do have to figure out some things on your own but once you do you will love it. There are some things that I wish this stroller came along with like a bassinet cover for cold windy days and a rain cover. I'm having a hard time trying to find a good fitting rain cover for this stroller. The bassinet is huge, last week I went shopping and fit five gallons of water on the bottom (I probably shouldn't do that because it says not to put more than 10 pounds in the basket). It rides really smooth and it looks like one of those expensive strollers. a lot of the parts are plastic so I suggest to be careful with the stroller eventhough it seems to be really sturdy. I am a tall person so I love love the telescoping handle. Another great thing about this stroller is that in the bassinet mode you can actually incline a little so that the baby doesn't lay totally flat which is how I keep it all the time and it is good for babies with reflux. The stroller is also a perfect width because my doorway to the building is narrow and I get through it with no problem. Anyone thinking about buying this stroller, go for it!! I highly recommend it!

Agile it ain't.
By lolfish
Oh my. I'm giving this stroller the three stars for the bassinet being built right in, because that is certainly a thoughtful feature, but that is about where the love ends. I have many complaints. I don't know who this stroller is really supposed to be for. The thing is heavy; I am not even going to think about bringing this stroller in my car, it just feels too heavy! What can I say, I am used to a Maclaren though. And, the handle bar is loosey-goosey --I guess you could say the telescoping feature is not well-incorporated in this model-- so when you push on it you end up having to apply extra, extra force to get up even small bumps. With all that "play" in the handle you really end up losing leverage. It seems like it would push fine on the smoothest of surfaces, but not great for an urban environment due to its size & heft. It's pretty okay on sidewalks, but getting up/down on curbs is a PITA. I feel slow and clumsy trying to maneuver through my suburban environment with this thing.So it is not a buttery smooth ride, but as it turns out my baby really enjoys the bassinet and the "bumpiness" in riding over all of the uneven terrain we encounter through our neighborhood. The fresh air and the jostley ride put her right to sleep! But it does feel like it will easily tip if I am not keeping a firm grip on that that handle over an uneven surface --such as my lawn, there are many pocks and divots! I feel this may be due to the extra stiff suspension --it takes quite a lot of pressure to make the suspension "give" --but otherwise it is not too horrible if you don't need to go very fast.I am also finding the hand grip uncomfortable and not the slightest bit ergonomic to use; really unfortunate, because everything else aside I would have still been tempted to keep this stroller. My baby likes riding in it, after all! But if it's making my wrists and hands ache the payoff is really lessened. These sloppy details really start to add up against this stroller.
