I'm so impressed with the Graco Modes stroller/car seat combo. It truly grows with your child — from the newborn car seat days all the way into toddlerhood. I love that I didn't have to buy multiple strollers along the way. The seat is reversible, the different modes are easy to switch between, and the whole system feels really thoughtfully designed for real life. The stroller is super simple to use, folds smoothly, and has great storage underneath (a lifesaver for diaper bags, snacks, and everything else). The car seat clicks in effortlessly, which makes transitions from car to stroller so much easier. For the price, the value is amazing. You get the car seat, the stroller, and all the features you'd normally expect on more expensive systems. It's durable, versatile, and just makes everyday outings so much easier. Highly recommend to any parent looking for a dependable, long-lasting travel system!

I got the Graco Modes travel system as my first ever stroller and car seat as a first time parent and it was the best decision I've made. The car seat has an infant insert and fit our baby at the time so well! He is now 1.5 years old and is so comfortable in this carseat. We have tried other carseats and he loves this one! The stroller is also perfect in every way. It has a good storage compartment and the stroller can be taken of the base to have the carseat attach or even the bassinet which is sold separately. We have the bassinet as well and loved having baby take safe naps while on the go! The stroller is smooth sturdy and easy to store away! Can't go wrong with this!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My favorite feature is the lightweight of this whole travel system! The car seat is durable, seems comfortable for my baby girl, but lightweight enough that I can easily maneuver the seat with her in it. The stroller is also super easy to use! Its large basket provides plenty of space for all of the family to stash items for outings. Its free standing function is quick and convenient too! Overall, I highly recommend this travel system!

The Graco Modes™ Element Travel System is well made and feels durable enough for everyday use. The stroller and car seat are adjustable, making it easy to adapt as the baby grows. Its size is practical—not too bulky—while still offering comfort and stability during walks and travel. Cleaning is simple, with materials that wipe down easily and removable fabrics for messes. Overall, the system is highly functional, offering smooth transitions between car seat and stroller, making it a reliable and convenient choice for busy parents.

Havent used with baby yet. We got the lynwood color which is a lighy grey and beige neutral combo. Set up took 20 min as we figured out the various "modes" for set up. Click system feels easy to use. Headrest on carseat feels fairly thin but carseat is very lightweight.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am extremely disappointed with the quality and features of the Graco Modes(TM) Element Travel System. When I received the Graco Travel System to test from the Stellar Review Panel I was so excited. I have other Graco products (a swing and a play yard) that I use every day and absolutely love. Unfortunately, the Graco Modes(TM) Element Travel System falls short of the quality that I expect from Graco. The materials used seem cheap and the infant stroller is difficult to use. The assembly of the travel system was easy. The directions are straightforward. It took me about 15 minutes to assemble. Once the travel system was assembled, I tested it out. I am a first time mom with a 6 week old newborn and primarily use the infant stroller configuration of the travel system for taking my baby on daily walks with my dogs. For me it is important to easily be able to do the following: (1) carry the stroller and infant carrier in and out of the house, (2) open the stroller and install the infant carrier, (3) feel that my baby is safe and comfortable while walking, (4) remove the infant carrier and collapse the stroller. The Graco Modes(TM) Element Travel System did not meet my needs. Infant Carrier Assessment: My baby was not comfortable in the infant carrier. The liner on the infant carrier is rough. The seat back and bottom meet at a sharp angle, which caused my baby to sit in an awkward position with his legs folded up toward his chest. The handle is a slippery plastic with no grip. Infant Stroller Assessment: When folded the stroller does not have a handle or gripping point, which makes it difficult to carry. Opening the stroller requires the use of two hands to undo the latch and pull the stroller open. Likewise closing the stroller requires two hands to push down buttons on either side and then manually fold the stroller. For me it would be ideal to go in and out of my house with my baby in the infant carrier in one hand and the stroller in the other. But that is not possible with this travel system. Additionally, the infant carrier is difficult to get in out of the stroller. I had to jostle the infant seat and push/pull hard to get it in and out of the stroller. The commotion woke my sleeping baby in the carrier. Once set up, the infant stroller handles well and gives my baby a smooth ride on sidewalks. The large storage basket underneath is great for carrying extra blankets, a diaper bag, etc. However, I am 5'2" and found the handle bar too high and uncomfortable for my wrists and shoulders. Also the compartments in the parent tray were too small to hold my 24 ounce water bottle and my phone. The concept of a travel system that grows with your child from infant to toddler is excellent. But the Graco Modes(TM) Element Travel System was designed poorly. The infant stroller just did not work for me. Pros: - easy to assemble - light weight - stroller basket is spacious and easily accessible - stroller is easy to maneuver Cons: - requires two hands to open and close stroller - no handle for carrying the stroller when collapsed - infant seat is difficult to get in and out of the stroller - folded stroller is bulky - have to engage locks on each wheel separately - stroller handlebar height is not adjustable - have to put seat in upright forward position before collapsing the stroller - does not include body support for toddler seat - rough material on seats in stroller and infant carrier - handle on infant carrier is slippery plastic with no grip - the seat back and bottom meet at a sharp angle in the infant carrier, causing my newborn to sit in an awkward position with his legs folded up toward his chest Bottom Line: I do not recommend this product. I received this travel system from the Stellar Product Testing Panel.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We have loved this new travel system! It will serve us very well in the coming summer months. The huge storage basket is great for carrying both kids gear around! The versatility of the seat positions helps our baby be a part of the action even though she's too little to walk. She can forward face when she's ready to interact, lay flat for naps on the go when older sister is still playing, and face in when there's a little too much stimulation! We also love how easy it folds up and stores out of the way! Thanks Stellar Product Testing Panel for letting us test it out! We are fans!

We've been using our stroller for 4+ months with our little guy. Love the versatility of this system. Negatives: Opening the stroller is a little tricky and gets stuck a bit. The plastic wheels make it hard to navigate tough roads / pavement (often have to lift the stroller up). It's a pretty heavy base. The flap for ventilation / seeing the baby is nice but it doesn't stay put - I attached my own velcro to it. The click connect is a very nice feature but isn't always the most simple to pull out / push down into. Positives: The storage space is HUGE and great. Love that there is a built in parent tray / cup holder and one for the kids too - this is something that many of the other strollers do not have.

This system is very easy to use and makes traveling with the baby much easier.

Who decided that a parent with a baby or maybe multiple kids or a pregnant woman should have to bend all the way to the floor to fold and unfold a stroller? Doesn't unfold without you not having to lift it fully off the ground. it falls over constantly when folded and when unfolding. I can't describe the frustration I feel when I am busy or rushed and I have to contend with this P0S.
