Chicco Cortina Stroller Review

I am a mom who is on a budget and we were lucky enough to get this stroller as a gift. If we had not and I had known how great it was then I would have made this my splurge for the baby. It comes as a travel system or by itself and fits the Keyfit 30 carseat. You can remove the carseat from the base or just the car with seatbelt and put it in the stroller rear facing so the baby is facing you and once you hear it click it is snapped in.  There is a laying position which is the same position as the car seat and several sitting positions and easily goes between all of them, so when baby falls asleep sitting up, you can easily lower baby to laying flat.  It has a visor or hood that moves so you can shield the baby from the sun, from other people, wind, whatever.  I can put down and fold it up with one hand and a foot.  We have a big diaper bag and it, along with a few shopping bags fit in the bottom basket area if it is in sitting position.  It still holds a diaper bag in the laying position but is hard to access.  I'm not very tall or strong and I can easily pick it up and put it in my car.  The cupholders are a nice perk because there are two on the front for sippy cups/bottles or whatever and one and a storage area on top for mom or dad. The only negative is that it doesn't fit well inside a compact or smaller car because we had a Mazda 3 and had to position it just so.
