Style, performance, comfort and convenience. The newest

dads everywhere. Designed with bike frame technology, this
aluminum stroller promises years of comfy strolling for
infants thru toddlers. The 4-position recline adjusts for
your child's comfort needs and the one hand Gravity Fold?

in direct contact with the ground, keeping it clean and
free of dirt. An extra large drop down basket is the perfect
place for storing baby essentials and plenty of other gear.

Editorial Review It
can sometimes be a little bit tricky to find a stroller
that is strong, durable, and spacious for long walks while
also being lightweight and manageable enough to handle easily
in a variety of settings. This solid touring stroller from
Graco strikes a nice balance, featuring excellent mobility
and handling in our informal test while also being well
appointed with features like a spacious lower storage basket,
one-hand collapsibility, and four-position recline in the
40-pound capacity seat. Other niceties include toy and cup
holders for the passenger (no cup holders for you, Mom and
Dad—sorry) and a combination clock and thermometer.

Customer Reviews  Couldn't
be more pleased and amazed with this stroller!,

My husband and I initially purchased a lightweight Evenflo
stroller for our daughter before she was born. Little did
we know about strollers except what we had read. The Evenflo
stroller had little basket room in back, had less-than-preferable
handling and my baby didn't fit well in it. So now our daughter
is 10 months old, we needed more in a stroller. I asked
a fellow mom about her stroller, and she raved about her
Graco Quattro. I checked out the reviews on Amazon.com and
went straight to Babies R Us. Standing in the aisle for
30 minutes, I tried it out, folded it up, and looked over
all its features in their entirety. I was impressed! My
husband helped me put it together, and he was very impressed
at the handling on this stroller. There's enough basket
room for my diaper bag, purse, toys, and even shopping purchases.
The seat back reclines and even lays flat when my baby naps.
This stroller is a dream to fold down and load. I am SO
impressed with this product!!!

I have been using this stroller for 14 months, and I still
tell everyone I meet about it. The main reason I went with
it is that the storage basket collapses to allow access
to its contents even with the stroller seat is completely
reclined. This means that when baby is sleeping, or when
you are using the carseat with the stroller, your diaper
bag or cooler is not stuck beyond reach. At the time we
bought it, it was the only stroller on the market with that
feature.
The wheel structure is rugged and handles off-roading very
well. On smooth pavement, etc., it handles beautifully.
I do joke with people that pushing it is like driving a
truck, because it is fairly large, and negotiating it around
narrowly spaced displays in a department store can be a
real challenge. There have been times while shopping that
I have determined to buy a tiny umbrella stroller, but I
love how much cargo I can take with me. There are two cupholders
and two small compartments near the handle; the basket holds
a lot; and when the seat is upright I can pile a lot of
stuff between the handlebar and the top of the seat, where
the extra material makes a kind of hammock. It is the perfect
stroller for a trip to the zoo, but I use it for daily shopping
and am very happy with it. It is not too heavy -- I have
no trouble lifting it in and out of vehicles. It is rather
large even when collapsed, but I don't really mind. I specifically
chose a larger, sturdier stroller for its features -- if
streamlining is a high priority, then go with something
smaller like the Travelite. But if you want to be able to
go everywhere and do everything, then this is the stroller
for you.
Note that the standard Graco stroller accessories, like
the toys on a post that fit into some sort of slot on strollers,
do not work with this stroller. I bought a stroller bar
from Sassy (like the Busy Bug one) with velcro straps, and
my son has been very happy with that.
Incidentally, I love the color I chose, the Heatwave pattern.
It is very soothing.
