Customer Review: Questionable Quality
Great design, doesn’t tip over like the MacLaren strollers… but the footrest fell off after a few months of use. Granted, the Britax customer service was wonderful and resent us another stroller immediately, but then the snaps of the basket on the new stroller were a bit off and wouldn’t clip on. Obviously a problem with quality control. Although I love the design, I would not recommend this stroller to anyone simply because I can’t trust the quality. Too bad because the Britax car seats are one of the most trusted brands.
Customer Review: Great stroller for young babies
This stroller is awesome, really. It is very easy to use, extremely lightweight and small enough to fit anywhere. I also like that I can easily maneuver it through narrow store aisles and cram it in the smallest space in the car. You do, however, need two hands to open it. This is only due to the fact that it is so lightweight that it does not fall open on its own, but must be pushed open with the little knob with your foot.

The basket underneath is on the small side, but can still accommodate a purse or a few items in the grocery store (nothing too heavy, though). The only trouble is the clearance from the stroller back; I could just barely squeeze a large 23oz. can of formula into the basket.

The attached accessories bag comes in very handy; I like to keep an extra diaper and burp rag in there, as well as a bottle of water for me and a baba for my son. The outside pockets easily hold my keys and cell phone, although one of the pockets was designed to hold a water bottle. I also like that this bag can be detached and carried like a purse.

The shades offer as good a coverage as you can expect from any stroller, and the peep through window is nice, but be sure you’re not burning your baby’s head while this is open on a sunny day. I also purchased the Britax Companion Infant Car Seat and they work perfectly together. Both shades pulled together at the same time can create a clamshell effect, which is great from grabby grannies in the mall. A big bummer about the canopy when just using the stroller is that it must be removed to fold the stroller. I found this to be so inconvenient that I ended up leaving it at home most of the time (no biggie, I usually just put a brimmed hat on my son).

The five point harness is an excellent safety feature and can be adjusted to fit just right. The adjustable leg rest is great for a small baby who doesn’t need to have his legs dangling over the edge yet.

The only drawback to this stroller is that it becomes more difficult to maneuver as your child grows heavier. No biggie, that’s to be expected with a small, lightweight stroller. I simply upgraded to another Britax stroller with bigger wheels (bigger wheels=easier to push and steer!). An excellent company with a great reputation; I will never purchase another brand for my baby transportation needs.
