Graco Emery Flip-it Travel System

I bought this in yellow and I loved the idea that my baby will face me at all times or away from me if I want. For a fussy baby who likes to know where mom is it's amazing, however when i actually used it, it was VERY hard to steer once you fliped the handle. Also i'm a shorter person and have small feet and legs and it was awkward pushing it once flipped because the two back weehls are so close together that i would step on the wheels or kick the wheels several times. I honestly think i may buy a new stroller that is easier to steer and push.

i truly love this system! the stroller is so easy to set up and down, and glides very well. it lies back pretty far so they can sleep. the only thing is when you flip the handle to the other side it doesn't maneuver quite as well but still a nice feature. the car seat is great! its nice and light. i love the pattern, and that if i need to i can use it without the base. i only wish the handle to the car seat went down one more click. i love that i can use the stroller by itself or with the car seat. never had a single problem in the year we've been using it!

I am 15 weeks pregnant, so I'm finding myself browsing through the baby section. I was not looking to buy a travel system this soon. I'd been to Babies-R-Us to get familiar with what was available for travel systems and knew that I wanted one with the flip handle. I stumbled across this one yesterday on clearance for $100. After asking an associate a few questions (why was it on clearance, was it recalled, was it a return, etc.) and pondering for a long time, I decided to go with my gut and and buy it at this price. I'm happy that I did. I feel like I got a great, safe system for one heck of a deal. I can't rate it on functionality yet, but here is what I've found: I thought it was easy to put together, I did it without hubby's help. All you need is a hammer. I put the back axle with brakes on backwards, but that was me not paying attention. It was easy to flip around. Not all parts on this would be easy to redo if you did happen to goof up, so take your time. I love, love, love the flip handle. The handle bar seems not as tight as I thought it would be, but its not a great concern to me and still feels safe, and could be because the entire handle flips. Its lightweight, but I think it will be durable. Love the car seat. But again I can't tell you how it will function since I have to wait until Sept. when baby is due. Overall I feel like I got a great deal on a brand name item. The colors are very nice and neutral with chocolate brown and minty green circles. Its made in China (wish I could have found a USA-made one). I don't think I would have picked this particular one at the retail price (since there are so many to choose from), but at $100, it was enough to sway me. Believe me, safety was still a priority, and I think this one will work out just fine.

So I have had my eyes on this product since the day I found out I was prego. According to the website this product is not sold in stores but I found it by accident in my local store,it was advertised for 200 at first which was more expensive then online so I figured I would order it to save me the 30 bucks. Since Im so picky I recently went back to the store to look at it again and make sure I wanted it. I GOT SO LUCKY the item was on clearence...100 bucks for the set WHAT A STEAL. I absolutly love the color it can be used for a boy or girl. The flip feature is awsome and cant wait to use it when the baby arrives in a few months we will be taking lots of walks :)

First, the car seat does not have the handy thing on the front that you can pull the strap through to tighten it up or push the button to loosen it up. Second, the stroller seat does not lean all the way back, which is not handy for a sleeping baby. Other than those, I have no complaints and love the system overall.
