What does baby carrier reviews have to do with the Graco Spree Travel System? It's because the travel system includes the Graco Snugride. The Snugride has always been a top rated and best selling infant car seat.
I was checking through Amazon to see what some of the most "wished for" car seats are. The Graco Spree was in the top 5 on the list. The most wished for designation comes from customer wish lists and registries.
This travel system includes the highly ranked Graco Snugride car seat, a car seat base that stays in the car and a Spree Stroller. The price on Amazon today was under $160 and that includes free shipping and returns.
The car seat is designed for children 5 pounds to 22 pounds. The Graco infant seats are always at the top of baby car seat reviews.
Customer reviews are very high for this travel system. Owners give it an average rating of 4.5 stars out of 5 stars possible.
The stroller is very light and folds easily. It has the feature of one hand steering which is a great benefit.
The colors and fabrics get high marks also. The con's regarding this travel system have to do with the car seat.
The Graco Snugride is a great seat but the 22 pound limit is low. Many infant seats now are designed to fit kids up to 30-40 pounds.
The other owner complaint that’s heard is that it has a rear adjustment instead of in the front. This is true of many older car seats.
The pro’s do outweigh the con’s for this travel system however. It easily snaps in and out of the car seat and the seat is easily cleaned also.
The Graco Spree Travel System is near the top of wish lists and baby shower registries. Graco products always score well in baby car seat reviews and this car seat/stroller combination is priced right and a solid product.
A detailed review can be found in the car seat reviews section of this site for the Graco Snugride 32, another of Graco's infant car seats.
