Graco Signature Series 3-in-1 Modular Stroller
We're being offered one of these (including car seat I think) by one of my Mother's neighbours; however, without looking a gift horse in the mouth, we may have to turn it down after looking it up.
My main concerns from what I've found out:
~ It can be very bulky, even when folded down as you have to remove the seat from the frame
~ it's hard to fold down alone with a child, due to above problem.
~ the wheels can become squeaky and may even fall off
~ cup holders break easily (less of an actual issue for us, but does spark a few concerns about overall quality)
~The sun canopy is not large enough, especially when in reclining position as it moves with the seat
~ the basket is difficult to access.
So, it does seem like there are a few issues. We weren't really looking into travel systems as neither if us drive and we're not likely to in the near future. WE live quite close to town so all our travel is on foot or via public transport. we're also up a steep hill, so a pushchair would ideally be lightweight. our house is also fairly small so we were looking more into umbrella fold pushchairs more, like a Maclaren one or the like.
Does anyone have a Graco Signature Series 3-in-1 Modular Stroller? What's your experience, and do you think it would be suitable for our needs?
Any suggestions anyway? :)
TIA
