Graco is the world renown for their innovative products, stylish designs and great value. One of Graco's greatest innovations was the travel system. Combining an interlocking stroller, infant car seat and car seat base the Graco Travel System allowed parents to transport a sleeping baby from stroller to car without having to take them out of their safety harness. The Graco travel system also allowed for new parents to buy their needed gear all in one shot with the peace of mind that the different parts would all work in sync and match style-wise.

The Graco travel system comes with one of several infant car seats. The Snug Ride seat fits infants from 5 to 22lbs and 29 inches long. For a little bit more the Snug Ride 32 fits infants up to 32lbs and 32 inches long. Finally, the Infant Safe seat holds infants from 5 to 30lbs. All are built to the highest safety standards, constructed from EPS shock absorbing material for the best impact protection. Depending on the Graco travel system, you may have an option on which seat you get.

Light Weight Graco Travel Systems

MetroLite $239.99: At only 25.6lbs total you'll be shocked at the amount features are packed into this Graco travel system. The parent storage tray with cup holders, multi- position reclining seat, child's tray, lockable swivel font wheels and great suspension will all make you think you bought a more expensive, full size stroller.

Lite Rider $159.99: A great Graco travel system for the value; you get many features found on more expensive strollers. A one hand fold, child and parent's tray, easy to reach drop down basket and reclining seat all make life easier for you. Besides not having all the bells and whistles, the Alano falls short on its color options. Graco only makes one color pattern for the Lite Rider Graco travel system

Alano $179.99: Get the best in design and style with this value Graco travel system. The one hand folding system breaks the stroller down into an upright position. No bending needed to transport! Sturdy construction, a host of convenient features and a great neutral stylish design make this stroller a must have.

Full Size Graco Travel Systems

Quattro Tour and Quattro Tour Deluxe $249.99/$269.99: The flagship of the Graco travel system line up, the Quattro Tour is loaded from top to bottom with convenient features and great construction. The aluminum frame, lockable front swivel wheels and easy one touch brakes make for a durable, easily maneuverable and safe stroller. The one hand gravity fold breaks the stroller down with only one touch from you. The deluxe parent tray is great for personal storage or bottle of water while you will love the large under seat storage basket. This Graco travel system is sold in two models. The Deluxe version comes with the Snug Ride 32, while the regular version comes with the Snug Ride infant seat. The Quattro Tour and Quattro Tour Deluxe are hands down the best on the market.

Glider $179.99: Lighter and cheaper than the Quattro Tour models, the Glider is a great travel system for the price. While it doesn't have all the bells and whistles of its bigger sibling, it's still packed with convenient features like: canopy with peek-a-boo window, parent and baby trays, and large storage basket.

Vie4 $209.99: Stylish and packed with great options like the stand up folding system the Vie4 is a great travel system for the price. If the Quattro Tour models aren't for you, then I suggest you take a look at the Vie4. One downfall of the Vie 4 Graco travel system is that it's only available in two color choices.

Spree $169.97: Sold only as a Graco travel system, the Spree comes only with the Snug Ride Car seat. It’s well equipped for the price and while you don't get all of the convenient features of other travel systems, the price more than makes up for it. If you're on a budget the Spree is the way to go.

Stylus $189.99: This hard to find Graco travel system is not based completely on the Mosaic stroller, but has a lot of the same style notes. Its sleek design combines with a host of convenient features to make for a nice alternative to the larger strollers in its class. Complete with Snug Ride car seat this stroller is a nice addition to the Graco travel system family.

The highest form of flattery is imitation and ever since Graco came out with their travel systems other stroller manufacturers have been trying to catch up. This genius innovation from Graco is now common place in the market, but the originators are still the best out there.
