I am due in July with my first baby, and I am having second thoughts about the stroller that I picked out. I picked out a Graco Stylus Travel System. The car seat holds up to 35lbs, and the stroller holds up to 50 lbs. I have read all of the reviews, and the only thing I am kind of worried about is how heavy people say that it is. Not pregnant, I am not a big person, only weighing in at about 120 (pre-pregnancy) and I'm only 5'2".
Do any of you all have any suggestions on a really good baby travel system? You can see the travel system that I picked out originally if click on the link below :).
I am having a baby girl by the way, but I would like to keep the stroller somewhat sex neutral just in case I end up having any more children.
Your input is greatly appreciated :)

Answer
There are a lot of things you can easily pick out by looking online. However, some things just need a first hand look. I think baby equipment is one of those things. It's helpful to see things in person before deciding on things like strollers, car seats, cribs, and travel systems. I suggest you go to several stores such as Babies R Us, Toys R Us, Target, Walmart, Sears, JC Penney, or any other local stores that carry baby items. Take some time to push the strollers and practice folding them. See first hand how heavy they are and how much room they take up when folded. Feel the fabric on car seats and check out how the latching system works. Sometimes looks alone just can't give you a good idea as to what you are going to get. After you find the items you like best than you can do some research to find the best web site to get the best price deal on exactly what you want. Personally, I don't think there is a best or really good travel system only because each one has their own set of pros and cons depending on what your wants and needs are. All are going to meet minimum safety standards, so it will take some investigation to find the one that suits you best.

Stroller travel system that is comfortable for someone tall?

I need to get a travel system that is comfortable for someone tall. I'm doing most of my shopping online and looking for recomendations. for our first child our mother in law got us the crappiest travel system ever as a gift. My boyfriend hate it using it he is 6'3 and had to bend his back over to be able to walk with it and it was very uncomfortable for him. He wants to be able to walk out son in the stroller so we want to buy something ourselves this time around that it's comfortable for someone tall to use. Thank You
We want a stroller carseat combo since we want to be able to put the newborn carseat in the stroller
17 weeks pregant now :)

I own the Chicco Key fit 30 travel system.
We love it, it comes with a stroller, car seat, and a car seat base. The handle bar on the stroller is adjustable, and I am amazed at how easy it is to use the stroller. it opens and folds very smoothly. I only wish the basket underneath was larger but it's not that big of a deal. I know they carry this system at Babies R Us. Even if you don't buy it from there you can still go to look at it and try it out.
And I've heard nothing but good reviews about the car seat. My friend had a 5 day old baby in the backseat of his car when they were hit by a drunk driver, he was bruised badly and had 3 surgeries since, but the baby was perfectly fine. So much in fact that the baby remained sleeping throughout the entire thing. (the child was examined by doctors for any problems immediately afterwards and none were found)
So I definitely recommend this system to anyone who asks.
