I'm starting to look into stroller combos for an infant, and would like to purchase one in future once I have another baby next year. I've been browsing online, but I'm not sure which ones are good and lightweight. I don't have a huge, heavy bulky stroller. I had one of those for my 1st, and i hated it. Any advice would be great, thanks :)
Answer
Most travel systems that have a carseat/stroller combo are pretty horrible to travel with. I mean, I know they are travel systems, but that just means that you can take the car seat out of the car and clip it on the stroller and go. I would suggest looking for a stroller that folds up smaller than most travel system strollers do, and not worry about a travel system.
I've heard really good things about bug a boo strollers, blut they are very expensive. http://bugaboo.com
Depending on what you are wanting a stroller for you may be able to get away with an umbrella stroller with a small cargo area underneath.
Another option, if you don't use a stroller often, could be to get a wrap or a sling. Super portable, super light weight, and no bulk like a stroller! Okay, that isn't what you're asking, but they may be good for you. Good luck!

THANK YOU
thank you girls!
i am a first time mom, and i do a lot of researh for strollers in the past few months, my opinion is that graco have just a better commercial nothing esle, the graco strollers in real looks a lot cheaper and they also have few recalls! That is why I am going with safety 1 st, they look a lot better and have more better features! I WANA BUY THE BEST STROLLER THAT I CAN AFORD FOR MY BABY NOT THE BEST "NAME"

Answer
Don't get a Safety 1st travel system at all. They're not rated well, they're not as safe as others on the market. You get what you pay for. The car seats do not crash test as well as other brands do. You can't put a price on safety. If something should happen to your child in a car accident, you don't want to be thinking, if only I'd have bought a better car seat. Get a Graco car seat. Strollers don't matter--go ahead and get the Safety 1st stroller, but don't get a Safety 1st car seat.
Other brands in the same group include Cosco Juvenile, Maxi-Cosi, Eddie Bauer, and Quinny. The are notorious for product recalls, and cheap parts.

EDIT: Well, Graco isn't the best name, either. Safety 1st is the cheapest brand on the market. They're notorious for crappy products that do not test well. Period. Graco is a middle of the road brand that is the most affordable to the most people which is why it is the most popular. If you truly want what's safest for your child, you'll get a Chicco car seat or a Peg Perego car seat. These offer side impact protection in an accident. Plastic with cute fabric stretched over it (Safety 1st or Graco) do not. I don't really know why you're wasting so much time researching stroller safety (since there are not any studies out there on it). You need to buy the safest car seat for your baby and worry about the stroller second. The car seat's what going to save your baby, not the stroller. If you want the best stroller out there, you're going to get an Uppa Baby or a Bugaboo, neither of which is probably in your price range if you're looking at Safety 1st travel systems. Most strollers can be turned into travel systems in this day and age with an adapter bar. The only exception is umbrella strollers.
