This travel system is absolutely great.  My favorite thing about it is the flip handle, which lets you face your baby either toward you or away from you.  The system was a little hard to assemble, but I think that's more my fault than the stroller's.  The patterns are suitable for a boy or girl, and it's easy to get the car seat in and out of the stroller.  I'm happy to recommend it.

This system is one of my favorites.  Its great handling is perfect for shopping because it lets you navigate through narrow aisles.  It also has an extremely smooth ride.  When they're used together, the stroller's shade and car seat can be pulled together to create a tent over your baby.  The system is very compact and folds up easily.  I took this system with us when my baby and I flew to Mexico and it worked great.  The compartment and cup holders are a nice touch for the parents.   The system is very portable, and the car seat is narrow enough that other people can still sit in a small car's back seat.  The only thing I can really complain about is that the stroller seat doesn't lay totally flat for when your baby is sleeping.  It would also be nice if the stroller seat could be positioned upright at a 90 degree angle, which would help because my boy doesn't sit up by himself yet.  Other than those couple of little details, the system is great.

We bought this travel system for our three month old boy, and we love it.  It's easy to put together and very portable, although folding it up does require more effort than what the video showed.  The car seat is lightweight, and both my wife and I can carry it easily.  This system gets my recommendation because the car seat base that comes with it makes our lives much easier.  No more standing out in the cold to strap the seat into the car - you just put the seat onto the base, where it snaps in easily.  The flip handle also helps a lot because you can choose to have your baby facing toward you or away from you.  I love this system and I'm certain I bought the best one for the best price.  I hope you enjoy yours as much as I do!

This travel system steers great and I really love it.  It's so easy to use and it's compatible with absolutely everything I've tried it with.  It does have some drawbacks, though.  It can be annoying getting it opened and closed, and it takes some time to figure out how to do it.  You need strong hands because you push the button, turn the handle and then pull up.  I don't care for this method because it could have been designed so it was almost one-handed.  I guess it might be that way for people who are strong enough, but I'm not.  On top of that, the cup holder is unbelievably annoying.  It catches on everything because it sticks out a good five inches from the side of the stroller.  It's removable, but it sure could have been designed better.  The sunshine kids buggy buddy I bought works perfectly with the stroller and lets daddy have a cup holder too.  Despite its faults, the reversible handle, ease of use and price make this system just about perfect.
