I like it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/chicco-bravo#post-2163545 Fri, 01 May 2015 08:37:02 +0000 krispi 2163545@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I tried this one out in the store and liked it. I especially liked that you can use it without the seat as a carseat carrier until they're older. It felt like it steered smoothly, and it has the one-handed fold. In the end, we went with the B-Agile because my husband thought it felt sturdier. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/chicco-bravo#post-2163012 Thu, 30 Apr 2015 20:17:13 +0000 lawbee11 2163012@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Can you put the baby in the main seat as a newborn (does it recline fully?). Or do you have to use the car seat until they're old enough for the main seat? That would be my only hesitation. It looks nice! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/chicco-bravo#post-2163006 Thu, 30 Apr 2015 20:14:53 +0000 Anagram 2163006@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Pickle: I had a travel system I guess--the britax B Ready (with the britax B Safe infant seat, plus the bassinet) and I have really, really liked having it the past 22 months. Am planning on using it for LO #2 as well.</p> <p>No experience in the Bravo, but just wanted to tell you my positive experience with a travel system in general. </p> <p>I love in an urban walkable area and drove only a handful of times on my Mat leave, so I appreciated a bigger stroller with a big basket. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/chicco-bravo#post-2163000 Thu, 30 Apr 2015 20:10:02 +0000 autumnlove 2163000@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Someone at daycare has a Bravo and it looks really nice! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/chicco-bravo#post-2162982 Thu, 30 Apr 2015 20:01:10 +0000 2littlepumpkins 2162982@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Pickle: I think that is a regular stroller, you can buy it separately (I think), just not one of the brand name ones. It looks very much like the brand name ones though! Much different than when I had dd. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/chicco-bravo#post-2162932 Thu, 30 Apr 2015 19:35:58 +0000 mrsjyw 2162932@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I know I'm in the minority but we had a graco snug ride infant seat and lite rider travel system and didn't have any issues with it! It was easy to snap in and use as a frame in the earlier months and we used it w ease as a regular stroller when Ds was 5.5/6 months! We did upgrade to a nice umbrella stroller but we would've done that anyway w a stroller frame! If anything the lite rider gave us more time before having to purchase an umbrella stroller. It wasn't cumbersome and wasn't a heavy stroller either. </p> <p>We are doing the Chicco keyfit and stroller caddy for ds2 because we need a new infant seat and already have the gluxe for him to transition to, but we kept the lite rider for my parents' house, haven't had any issues w it! </p> <p>Id def chk out in store! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/chicco-bravo#post-2162859 Thu, 30 Apr 2015 18:57:40 +0000 hilsy85 2162859@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Pickle: I haven't actually seen that one before! I guess in general I just have a bad impression of travel systems...but maybe they have solved those issues with this model! Definitely worth a look in the store! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/chicco-bravo#post-2162855 Thu, 30 Apr 2015 18:56:38 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 2162855@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@hilsy85: it looks like a regular stroller to me, but that's probably because I don't know anything! </p> <p><a href="http://www.amazon.com/Chicco-Bravo-Travel-System-Polaris/dp/B00MS9VVTA" rel="nofollow">http://www.amazon.com/Chicco-Bravo-Travel-System-Polaris/dp/B00MS9VVTA</a> </p> [attach=1198/15/nnn9as.600x369.image.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/chicco-bravo#post-2162851 Thu, 30 Apr 2015 18:53:10 +0000 hilsy85 2162851@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>can I ask why you would go with that rather than a regular stroller (city mini, one of the britax strollers, uppa baby cruz, etc) with a car seat adaptor? They basically function the same but I think the quality and ease of use in a regular stroller is much better! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/chicco-bravo#post-2162812 Thu, 30 Apr 2015 18:29:21 +0000 Mamasig 2162812@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had the chicco cortina travel system. I hated it and would never get a travel system if I had to do it over again. I would do a snap and go first and then get a nice stroller. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/chicco-bravo#post-2162776 Thu, 30 Apr 2015 17:48:50 +0000 MrsADS 2162776@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Pickle we just bought this for our son who is due in August! We tried out a lot of strollers and liked this one the best. So, I'll let you know then how we like it - but we went out a limb and got it! :happy: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/chicco-bravo#post-2162705 Thu, 30 Apr 2015 16:27:49 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 2162705@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Does anyone have or has anyone tested the Chicco Bravo? I'm thinking of registering for the Chicco Bravo Trio travel system, but I did a search on travel systems and a lot of the old threads had negative things to say about travel systems. I'm at the beginning stages of researching for gear and definitely plan to test drive some strollers before deciding. </p>
