Chicco Infant Seat vs. Gracco Snugride vs.Travel Systems

Since you ladies are already using these things, I find you the best to ask...

what did you opt for, and why?

Having a difficult time with car seat/strollers/

Thanks so much!

I registered for the Graco Snugride and metrolite stroller. I went with the snugride due to the ratings and reviews. I opted for the metrolite over the quattro stroller because of the weight and bulkiness. I am extremely happy with both. Metrolite is a lifesaver. Nice and light and compact for keeping in the car.

I wish I did that. The Snug ride was a good seat. The Quattro is TOO BIG. If you can snap-and-go with the metro lite I would do that.

I have the Chicco Cortina Travel System and I love it!! It's not that heavy, folds easily, and I found it to be lighter and easier than the Graco systems. I've been happy with my Chicco. My ONLY complaint would be that's it hard to get to the storage basket underneath when the infant seat is snapped into the stroller. Other than that I have no complaints.

I have the Chicco travel system with the Keyfit 30 also. I liked the Chicco stroller better than the metrolite for some reason - can't remember now though!

I also used the Baby Trend Snap and Go with it. It's nice b/c my Mom keeps that at her house, and I keep the Cortina at my house/trunk.

I love my Chicco Travel System - I found it to be a little lighter than the Graco one.

I also used the Chicco and LOVED it until I had my 2nd DC. NO double holds the infant seat. Chat Icon

I have the Chicco Keyfit 30 and LOVE it!! First of all it got great ratings and second my DD LOVES being in it! I use it with a snap and go for now because it is so much easier to get in and out of the car.

Snap and go and metrolite weigh about the same. I never needed a snap and go, the metrolite worked for both!
