Graco Metro Lite

I cannot really say much about this metrolite travel system. I wanted something light and after reading over many reviews and checking out another metrolite (Sterling) in Babies R Us, I decided on the… metrolite. I wanted the Quattro Travel System-Deco, but it was bigger and too heavy for me. I like the neutral color of this set because I'm having a boy, and later on can still use it if I have a girl. It was easy to set up. So far I cannot make much comments on it, but it is what it is. I already knew how it would look and feel before ordering it. The material is easy to clean, but is not fabric or soft like some other set, but I can always add something soft in it, no biggie. Now, I just have to test it out when my baby arrives around thanksgiving. If you want something light weight, look into Graco metrolite. And oh, it is so easy to fold and unfold. After I have my baby, if I have time, I will write another review. Best of luck!

I don't agree with the other posts at all!!! I have this stroller, I tired it out at the store before we purchased it, its super light, easy to maneuver one handed and easy to put together. The fabric may… not be soft, but you won't need to put your child in the fabric part till they are much older anyway and thats what clothes are for... to keep them soft! The snug ride car seat snaps in and out very easy! This is a great stroller system!

But so are all Metrolites. If you want a lightweight one, you may have to live with this. People suggest putting some other absorbent material on top that is comfy and does not overheat the baby on summer… days. The other thing to note with these is that you cannot make them into a "bassinet" by closing the bottom flap - there is no such flap. Some people also complain about the ease of sliding the car seat in and out - I don't see that problem with ours at least.

I am due in July and I was so excited because the colors and description of the travel system was what I was looking for until it was delivered. As soon as my husband and I opened the box, we noticed that… it was cheaply made. The fabric was so hard and looked uncomfortable. Yet, we still assembled the stroller hoping for a miracle. Although the stroller is lightweight it's not comfortable to close and surely not worth the money! I will be sending it right back!
