We registered for a Graco Aire3 travel system with click connect car seat. We just got it and went to set it up tonight, and wow it's difficult to get the car seat snapped in and out of the stroller base. Sometimes it doesn't even seem like it is clicked in securely, and I still can't get the car seat off the stroller smoothly. To be clear, I would have dumped the baby for how hard I had to yank it off, and every time I hold my breath that nothing on it snapped. I went back to reviews, and it seems like in the last three months the number of negative reviews have multiplied compared to when we registered for it. I'm also reading that the brakes are breaking repeatedly after a few months. We really like it in theory, but now we're hesitant to keep it. Some people updated reviews that they sort of get the hang of the connect after a while but that it's never quite smooth. I'm a little worried about the brakes now. There were a few negative reviews with these issues previously, but it seems like the negative reviews have gotten much more frequent.

Anyone have one of the Graco travel systems that can share experiences?

We were also thinking it would be easier to return it now before she's born than deal with having to get a new car seat (travel system) and everything later if the brakes do go in a few months. But still a hassle and honestly not even sure what we'd get instead.
