Graco Modes Click Connect Stroller, Grayson

Ok. So from a first time mom experience with this stroller. I am going to break it down. I searched and searched reviews for strollers and made a great buy but there are some things moms need to know.I really do love this stroller. It has plenty space for our things, even though they could be bigger but that is not a deal breaker. Its strolls easily. It has a very comfortable ride for my little one. I love the several different options which is a huge plus because as a first time mom I was worried about everything but in this stroller you can adjust your baby to where they are most comfortable. Which I like.As a mom, I know understand the concept of easier. I feel that things designed for moms should be EASIER. This stroller is not one of them. I will explain why I say this. There is a locking mechanism when it folds up that to this day I still don't know how to unlock??? I lose patience trying to figure it out and try to avoid at all costs, because if my little girl is in my hands there is no way to unlock it one handed. This is one thing that MAKES ME FURIOUS... ITS HEAVY AS HELL... I have a SUV, and trying to unload and even load into the SUV alone is terrible.Other than that, it really is a nice stroller, has plenty of room, but there is room for improvement on certain things. Just make it easier for us moms. We have it hard enough already.

Tldr: Great Stoller all around, storage is a little limited but adequate for a large diaper bag, has a parent tray with 2 cup holders and a covered tray (not big enough for a larger smartphone's, but you can put your keys in it). Reclining bassinet, not full.Actual review:I spent a lot of time researching different strollers and decided on this one! It was very easy to put together. I will say the instructions were a tiny bit difficult but that's because of the angle that it's drawn. It took me a little bit to see that the squiggly pin needed to be stuck through the wheel and not in, which wasn't clear on the pictures.Fabric wise:The padding on the stroller straps do slide around a little but that's to be expected. The fabric for the seat is soft, not as rough as I thought it would be.The storage is a little limited, or I just carry a lot of stuff lol. It is enough for a large diaper bag (like a bookbag) and a smaller bag. The parent tray has a covered storage area and two cups. I like that it's covered but there's not enough space for a larger smartphone (for reference, I have a Galaxy Note 9 and it will not fit...but it does have a case).Pictures for reference! My baby is 6months old, average size and her feet do not touch the foot bar. Not even close!

We have three kids. We’ve owned quite a few strollers over the years. This one is by far my favorite! It is handsome, I love the grey. It’s super roomy so my soon to be one year old definitely has room to grow but it has also worked great when he was smaller. My son loves to face forward and see the world, he loves to turn and face me too. I love how easy it is to change his seating. Even the foot rest can be adjusted for little baby legs and feet.This thing is sturdy and fits nicely in my car. The shade is oversized and curved in a way that a lot of stroller shades aren’t. It’s just an extra that offers total protection from the sun that I appreciate.The bottom basket is super roomy! It’s easier to access when baby is facing out rather than facing you. The storage compartment won’t fit my cell phone (iPhone 11) so that is a tiny inconvenience but it holds keys and cards easily. I do like that there are two cup holders.My only complaint is it rattles a bit. When we are on a stretch of pavement that’s maybe older and bumpy..this thing can get a little loud. It doesn’t make me wish I hadn’t bought it at all, but sometimes it gives me a giggle when it’s doing a rattle.

After many hours of research, we decided to order this stroller and we are so happy with it! We absolutely love the bassinet feature, and have used it multiple times for our two month old. The arm straps are four pieces that click into each other, which makes it easier to remove baby without having to move their arms and wake them. It folds easily enough with one hand, is super light, and the wheels give us no trouble on sidewalks and park paths. The graco car seat we ordered clicks/un-clicks easily into the stroller as well. It comes with a snack/bottle tray for parents and baby, both which fit most standard size drinks. The phone part doesn’t fit our iPhones, or any standard phone I imagine. The storage area at the bottom is also large enough to fit a diaper bag and possibly groceries if needed. The best part is that it is relatively well priced. We would definitely recommend to anyone with a click connect carseat.

We love this stroller. Our daughter loves this stroller. It's comfy for her and we love the recline feature, especially when we are out walking for a while (zoo, for example) and she falls asleep. We've used the bassinet mode frequently for that.The basket at the bottom is huge as well. You can easily fit the diaper back and a variety of other items (blanket, water bottles, etc) at the same time. It folds easily and the cupholders are great.This stroller is also sturdy! We've flown with it. We had it in a bag to help protect it in flight and we checked it at the ticket counter (it's a little big, so you'll have to check with your airline to see if you can gate check if that is your preference). No dings or problems getting it back.Our only complaint is that it doesn't fold up very small. It's pretty big. We have a CR-V and it still takes up a decent amount of space in our trunk. We're usually packing around the stroller because it is roughly the length of the trunk, even folded. If you're not worried about traveling a lot or taking a lot of stuff when you do travel with the stroller, it's great.
