[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The stroller was easy to put together and is very versatile. The only negative I have about it is that it doesn't have a handle to carry it while folded and has the tray and footrest sticking out when folded with the toddler seat. So it is not as easy to travel with as some others. I love Graco though and the wheels are very sturdy and smooth to push.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Elements Modes Travel System is great. I've been using it for about a week or so now and it is awesome. I love the different configurations you can use. My sons favorite seems to be forward facing the stroller without the infant carseat attached. He loves to be able to look out and see the world around him as we're out and about. I like the rear facing option on the stroller for when he is napping while we are out or if he is eating his puff snacks so I can keep an eye on him. The wheels roll so smoothly and turn so easily. Previous strollers I've had were always a pain to turn corners in, this stroller is super easy. I also love how high up the seat is. It makes it easier to get my son in and out of the stroller while pregnant. Also, since the seat is so high up it makes the cargo area big enough to hold a fully loaded diaper bag. The child tray on the front makes it easy for my son to reach his sippy cup when needed. The parents tray on the back is also neat, I just wish the cup holder was a tiny bit bigger. It fits a typical 20 ounce bottle great but nothing bigger. This stroller is easy to fold and folds to a nice compact size that fits in the trunk of my car great. I like the black color of it, it hides the many stains I'm sure my son will cause over the course of us using it. The infant carseat goes up to 35 pounds so my son is still able to use it even though he is already a year old and 23 pounds. The infant car seat is super easy to install because it comes with a base. You install the base once then leave it in the car and the carseat just snaps in when you need it. Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this travel system.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] In purchasing a stroller I looked for something that was not too heavy, easy to carry and fold and with not too many attachments for it to fit in my small car trunk. This travel system has all that I was looking for.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this travel system from the Stellar Product Testing Panel. I am a mother of two, 3 years old and 10 months old. I mostly used the stroller for my youngest. My three year old really likes to just walk beside us so my review is mostly based on using it for a 10 month old. Pros: I loved the ability to easily switch the toddler seat from forward facing to rear facing. the click connect buttons on either side of the seat were super easy to use and smooth. My little guy really loved to be able to face me during our walks. This was definitely our favorite configuration and feature of this system. The seat is very easy to recline and reposition upward. I loved the infant carseat. The straps are easy to adjust and my baby seemed very comfortable in it. It is a breeze to click in and out of the stroller. I liked being able to click it right into the frame of the stroller with or without the toddler seat on. I preferred to use it with just the stroller frame. The base was also easy to install into the car. The included instructions were thorough and easy to follow. The storage basket is huge. I loved being able to toss a backpack right in there. I like the double cup holders on the parent tray. My little guy didn't get much use out of the child tray due to his age. He used it mostly to pull himself up. The stroller is also very easy to close and I liked that it stands up on its own when folded. It is also really easy to push with one hand but is a bumpy and noisy ride. Cons: I struggled with the break assembly of the stroller. I was unable to push the pins in without my husbands help and I don't consider myself very weak. However the instructions were very easy to follow. The toddler seat was far too small for my three year old, who is not very tall. The back of the seat is rather short which caused her head to rest on the canopy. I couldn't extend it over her without it resting against her head, causing her to crouch down. The fabric of the seat is spot clean only and isn't machine wash friendly. This is a feature I would suggest they add in the future.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product from Stellar Product Testing Panel- After using other same brand products... this travel system is very ‘okay'. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't great. I LOVED the large storage basket on the bottom- major bonus points and the durable canopy fabric, however, with the good comes the bad, the canopy doesn't stay in shape it when fully extended. After testing the stroller out on both my toddler and supported sitter infant the stroller seat was roomy enough for either one of them. The snack tray was however pretty far away from both kiddos making the shoulder straps kinda of useless if you want them to utilize the tray. My toddler could move with plenty of room and the stroller remained light to push and she's 3y.o. 31lbs. The base is easy to install and the click connect is as advertised. The car seat however is nothing I would feel comfortable using- there is literally no head support for a child who would have no neck control. To loosen the straps you have to reach under the child as well such a hassle. Super frustrating when I put my baby in and was taking out. The handle was light but no cushion for your arm for when you are holding the car seat (like if you were walking into a store or something). So overall it's just okay...

Received the stroller at my wife's baby shower... Best gift by far. Newborn son came home in the car seat, didn't make a sound. Took him for his first walk in the stroller the other day, what a breeze. Such a smooth, comfy ride. Even jogged with him. The stroller handles the road and sidewalks great. 100% recommend!

I don't think this product was worth the price. Wheels are not very good quality. I have been using the stroller for almost 5 months and they are wearing out quickly. Both the car seat and stroller are difficult. The car seat with getting the baby into it and getting it in and out of the car. The stroller is difficult in folding and unfolding it for storage and putting it in the trunk of my car.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received the Graco Modes Element LX Travel System from the Stellar Product Testing Panel to test out with my 6-month old son. To start, assembling it was a breeze, easy instructions and required no tools. The stroller frame is durable, has tons of storage room underneath which is a great feature when you are juggling a diaper bag and shopping bags. However, the storage area slants and isn't very deep so things fall out. I loved the cup holders and small tray on the handle but wished the tray would have been deeper. The durable frame provides a smooth ride and collapsing the stroller is super easy with one hand. I would have also preferred that the wheels were rubber, not plastic. Now onto the car seat…it was not as durable and the plastic felt cheap. I didn't like that the canopy had no structure and you had to pull it over the handle each time. I would prefer a canopy that you can just fold back and forth. The car seat also felt spread out, wasn't very deep and the sides didn't come up very far which made it feel like the baby wasn't as protected. I also didn't like that the straps by his head didn't have cushion or padding on them. The release button would have been nicer on the top bar rather than in the back of the car seat. Overall, I think the quality if reflected in the price point, good stroller system but could be better.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Overall I had mixed emotions on this travel system. It was not the most user friendly but it did provide great storage and growth opportunities.Currently I prefer to use the infant carrier clipped into the stroller but I love that as my 5 month old grows this will be able to grow with her. I appreciate that I can also use this stroller for my 2 year old and it does not take much to convert between the two options.  I love how big the storage underneath was, I could fit all the required gear for taking both of my kids to the children's museum and a few extra shopping bags that we picked up along the way. I appreciated that the parent tray fit my large cup, big bonus! Here is where part of this proved to be less than user friendly, it takes two hands to break the stroller down for travel. This is very inconvenient with one child, let alone two. Additionally, the stroller does not automatically lock when closed, you have to clip it shut manually. This was not a feature that I enjoyed. Personally I did not like that the wheels were plastic, I feel like the stroller is set up to grow with your children but the plastic wheels really limit how long this will last and where you can take it. If you are only using this for indoor purposes, this will meet your needs. For me, I live on a street without sidewalks, so I prefer being able to use one stroller for all of it. Installing the carseat was another piece that was not super user friendly. It was super easy to level the carseat base however the anchors are not ideal. It was a challenge, even for my small fingers, to get the anchors removed from the carseat base and also clipped into my vehicle. I also had a tough time getting the infant carrier out of the base a couple times. I will say, this infant carrier is lighter than others I have tried, that was convenient for me.The fabric is easy to wipe clean but not very soft or comfortable, I would not want my skin rubbing on that every time I was in the car. I did really like the look, it was sleek and stylish. I felt like this was a great color option for both my son and my daughter. The design looks were probably my favorite part of this system followed by the growth options. I was given this travel system to try as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel.  

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We absolutely love almost everything about this stroller and carseat. The stroller drives better than any other stroller we've used (and we've used a lot). I love that you can use the carseat or stroller seat facing inward or outward. This is probably my favorite feature because we've loved being able to turn our son both directions. It's very easy to change the seat direction around which is a huge plus. We also really loved being able to lay the stroller seat flat. Our son is special needs and doesn't have good head control so this is such a beneficial feature. It's also so helpful with naps on the go!! There are a few things I did not like. First, when you close the stroller the handles go down to the ground. It was super easy to close with one hand which is great. However, I'm not a fan of the handles touching the ground and getting dirty which I'm sure will happen over time. The other thing that I didn't like is you cannot properly close the stroller with the stroller seat facing inward. It does technically close. However, it doesn't collapse as condense as when the stroller seat is facing outward. We ended up turning the seat back to the outward position before collapsing it each time, which was frustrating. The car seat is great! It's so lightweight and easy to carry. It is a great length and width. Which makes it easy for fitting into vehicles. We did have a difficult time getting the base tight enough. The latch strap adjuster is poorly placed so it makes it difficult to tighten properly. Overall, we would recommend this set to anyone! We were so happy to receive as a part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel.
