Graco® Modes™ Nest DLX Travel System in Raven

I will start by saying that I do love this stroller. Given the price point it is well made and very versatile. I have used it as a bassinet for naps on the go, or on the sideline while at older kids sports. The basket is HUGE, like you don’t need a grocery cart unless you are doing your weekly shopping, huge. I often just use the basket below for my shopping trips. On the beach, it does well although in soft sand, you do need to tip it up on the back (larger wheels) and pull, but we can fit all our beach chairs and beach bag under the seat so it eliminates the need for a separate cart. I am also very short, so I like that I can raise or lower the baby seat so I can actually reach LO while I’m walking to replace his binky. The only thing preventing me from giving it 5 stars is that it’s not easy to fit in a sedan. It’s takes up the majority of the trunk. And it cannot be collapsed with the toddler seat attached. So once you have that in the trunk, plus the frame, you have zero room to put anything else. So, now that LO is too big for the car seat, I purchased an umbrella stroller for my sedan, but will continue to keep this and the toddler seat/bassinet in the SUV.

It was a bit too complicated for me personally, but my husband is tall and he loved the adjustable height of the bassinet and carseat.

The stroller is huge and bulky. I have a Toyota Highlander and the stroller won’t fit with the seat on. The stroller is way too big for normal use. Also it is impossible to get the car seat to click in without the seat on. I wish I had gone with the Baby Jogger stroller but sadly I can’t return this one. The car seat is very nice and works well with the base in the car.

I like that you can remove the seat to fold smaller. I have a 2021 Dodge Durango and when the 3rd row is up there isnt much truck room, this stroller fits great with the stroller seat removed.
