The Graco Mosaic umbrella stroller earns mixed reviews from parents and professional reviewers. Expert reviewers tend to be quite positive, while parents posting to user-review websites are more lukewarm in their evaluations, citing squeaky wheels and a rough ride on some surfaces. On the other hand, reviewers like this stroller's narrow build, front swiveling wheels and compatibility with Graco infant car seats. At about 20 pounds, this stroller straddles the line between a lightweight stroller and a full-featured one. If you are looking for a truly lightweight umbrella stroller, the 9-pound, no-frills Maclaren Volo (*Est. $130) is top-rated. If weight is not an issue, you might want to consider Graco's most feature-packed stroller, the Quattro Tour Sport (*Est. $170). The best stroller overall is the Inglesina Zippy (*Est. $350), but that stroller is considerably more expensive.
We found the most credible reviews for the Graco Mosaic umbrella stroller at ConsumerReports.org and its British equivalent, Which? magazine.

1. Which? magazineDetails/Subscribe
Which? magazine is Britain's answer to ConsumerReports.org, but testing here is actually more detailed, and about twice as many strollers are tested overall (not all are available in the U.S.). Editors and testers are impressed with the Graco Mosaic stroller. Despite its smallish wheels, it handles well. The short list of complaints includes an average storage system and handles that some parents describe as uncomfortable.
