lovely lul
Do you think the stroller is compact (when folded) enough to fit in the trunk of a 03 Mustang?
What about the car seat, is it compact enough to fit in the backseat?

Or do you think this travel system would work better?

Answer
Hmmm... I have the baby trend system. I would think that it would fit in the trunk of a mustang. It will be a tight fit, but it will fit.
As for the car seat fitting, it should. I have a dodge caliber and it fits with a little room. Our issue is that we have to have the front seat pulled all the way up, but then again, I am normally alone with the baby in the car. You can alway buy it and try it. If it doesn't fit, take it back.
I LOVE my baby trend stroller, but I am not a huge fan of the car seat. I just don't like the way it clips together, but I don't think I would really like any clips since my son HATES the car seat :-)

Baby Trend Phantom Jogger Stroller - which car seat?
LaDiDa
I love the positive reviews for the Baby Trend Phantom Jogger Stroller, but am discouraged by the reviews for the Baby Trend Phantom Infant Car Seat. I am somewhat confused cos the Baby Trend Jogger Travel System has great reviews - I assumed it's the stroller and car seat mentioned earlier, sold as a set. Either no one likes the car seat on its own, or I'm getting the strollers mixed up.
Looking for options for car seats for the Baby Trend Phantom Jogger Stroller stroller, I dont see any mention of compatible car seats for the stroller on the Baby Trend website. I don't care if it is a Baby Trend car seat, it just needs to fit the stroller.
I'm so confused with the many strollers and car seats there are and want a set that's affordable but wouldnt fall into pieces within months. My budget is $200 for both the car seat and the stroller.
Just wondering if any of you have the Baby Trend Phantom Jogger Stroller, and what car seat do you use with it. How do you like the stroller? What other car seat/stroller combo would you recommend if not this?
Thank you very much in advance!
Answer
Personally, I think for that budget, its a great option.
The baby trend seats are known to be nice seats in the carseat world. They are affordable, and they've made some improvements in the last year or so. I read some of the reviews on target.com - frankly, I don't put much into reviews online for carseats.... 9 out of 10 people have their seat installed incorrectly. So clearly, its harder to use a seat when its used incorrectly.
(you can get the whole system here: http://www.albeebaby.com/baby-trend-jogger-travel-system-9139ct.html with 10% off by the way)
This is a good system: http://www.albeebaby.com/graco-quattro-tour-sport-travel-system-nectar.html and the seat goes up to 30lbs. The graco strollers are actually pretty good quality... they are just huge. But if I was in this pricerange, it's probably what I'd end up with.
If you can go up just a bit - what I would recommend is the chicco system... it's much more like a high end stroller/carseat then other mass produced strollers -

I'd say you're headed the right direction with the baby trend. You an also buy a stroller and combine it with a carseat individually...
like you could buy this: http://www.albeebaby.com/fraco-metrolight-stroller-in-soho.html and this: http://www.albeebaby.com/graco-infant-safeseat-step-1-8a15nct-nectar.html
