Holy Grail of Travel Systems
I have been using this travel system for 5 months now and I have to say it is GREAT! Haven't had any problems with it yet. With my first son I went through many strollers before finally giving up and getting one that worked somewhat well for us. When I found out I was expecting again I dreaded searching for another mediocre travel system. When I first came across the Chicco Bravo Trio, there was only 1 review but I took the chance and ordered it anyways based on its features and the Keyfit 30 being the top rated car seat. It arrived very fast and took maybe 5 minutes to set up. It is the easiest stroller I've ever owned as far as setting up and folding down. It really only takes one hand! It is a little on the heavy side when you have it as a travel system and not just a car seat carrier but it's not too bad. The car seat works perfectly with the stroller and with the base. It's so easy to just click it in and out whenever you need to. Outings have never been easier. You just take the car seat out of the stroller, pull the handle under the seat of the stroller to collapse it (it stands by itself when collapsed), click the car seat into the car seat base in your car, then load the stroller in the back. Getting everything ready to go takes maybe 2 minutes! The height adjustable handle is also a big plus. My 5 year old likes to push the stroller sometimes when we're on walks and with the push of the buttons, the handle bar is adjusted to where he can. With the handle on the highest setting I have no problem pushing and don't have to bend over or worry about kicking the back wheel bar everytime I take a step and neither does my husband. Also I've been reading some reviews that state the fabric of the car seat causes the baby to sweat a lot. I'm pretty sure that happens with every car seat. I owned 3 different car seats with my first son and he sweat in all of them even with the A/C all the way up. I currently live in Phoenix, AZ where the temperature has already reached 118 and I haven't noticed my 5 month old sweating any more than my oldest son ever did and I lived somewhere 20 degrees cooler when he was a baby.
Overall this is a great travel system because of its features, quality, and most importantly, ease of use. I would definitely recommend it to a friend.
