I ended up using our travel system stroller, but my back would be hurting as I lugged it in and out of our trunk. <br/>Thank goodness for this stroller! She can last forever in this one. The slight recline is enough to keep her comfortable and the backing helps her from looking slumped over. It is light and collapses just as easily as other umbrella strollers. I also like the five-point safety harness and great sunshade. Oh, and unlike other critics, my feet hitting the wheels while walking has never been a problem. <br/>I give it four stars b/c the material is not washproof and the keylime color soils easily (if I had known this, I would have purchased a darker color). Also, I thought it would recline more (only goes down 10-15 degrees from upright). Having said that, my daughter still seems to last forever in this stroller though! <br/>All in all, a good purchase!

The stroller is well made and visually pleasing (thus the 2 star rating). unfortunately my average size 8 month old finds it extremely uncomfortable. The problem is that the seat part is too inclined and even with the back in the upright position it makes his feet point up too high. therefore he has the tendency to lean forward because of the unnatural angle and he cannot relax. He ends up slumped to one side with his head resting on the side bar. This one will only be used for around the yard for short periods. Prior to purchasing this stroller I bought the "Kolcraft Tour Sport® Umbrella Stroller With Adjustable Canopy ". It was nearly half the price of the Chicco. Although it did not come with shoulder harnesses, it's just as well made, the handlebars are foam padded and comes with a cup holder. The best part is that I use it daily inside the house and my son loves it. The seat is flatter and it reclines as well. He falls asleep minutes after strolling him around the house and even watches his "Baby Einstein" shows in it. It's the best money spent so far. I also recommend any of the Maclaren Strollers, pricy but worth the money. I use the XLR for shopping and outing trips and he has plenty of room and is comfortable. <br/> We purchased this stroller as an extra for around the house or quick trips out (in turquois) specifically for the shoulder harnesses because it’s hard to find an umbrella stroller with this option.
