Decent kit for a newborn

This is a good starter kit for a newborn on a reasonable budget. The stroller requires assembly, but it doesn't take much time, and the instructions are very clear - step-by-step with pictures. I found installing the cup holder on the adult side a bit difficult as the padding and foam grip intrude into the area that needs to be installed on the left side, but there's nothing extra strength can't handle. Folding the stroller is easy, but it does get a little tangled with the folding assembly. I'm a little concerned about over-stressing it, but nothing has broken so far. When folded, it's small enough to fit in a car, but not as convenient for traveling with an older child as an umbrella stroller. in lying mode for babies who have to lie down in the first few months. However, installing a car seat is a bit of a hassle. I have to move the padding on the sides so that it is well fixed. and since you can't adjust the angle like some of the more advanced autobases, it doesn't seem like a good option when you can move a little. I'm also a little worried about how heavy it is. The front roller is equipped with an axle lock (roller pin lock) that prevents it from turning. Each rear wheel has an independent lock. The car seat and base are cheap. They work, they seem safe, but I'm used to seats that have a lot more features that make them a lot quicker and easier to use and set up. For a little more money in the Graco range you can get a much more useful car seat, but this one has the advantage of being lightweight so it has minimal features.

Pros
  • Elegant design
Cons
  • Long delivery time
