Ease of use
Stroller seat
The stroller seat reclines to multiple positions with a simple squeeze of both levers on the rear of the seat while pulling down on the backrest to the desired position. The stroller can be used in three stages, the infant stage, the transition stage and the toddler stage. In the infant stage you can easily remove the stroller seat and the canopy to use the lightweight frame as a car seat carrier. This system comes with the adapter which easily attaches to the stroller frame.
In the transition stage, you install the infant car seat directly to the stroller without removing the stroller seat.
This system is great because you do not have to remove the canopy to install the car seat. The stroller’s canopy in conjunction with that of the infant car seat can work together to provide a dark place for your baby to sleep outdoors. You still need the adapter to complete the installation.
In the final stage of this combo, you can put your child directly into the stroller. Only children who are able to seat unsupported should ride in this stroller. It is recommended for children from 6 months to 50Lbs.
There is a newer version of this travel system, the bravo le trio travel system silhouette. It has some great improvements. The first being that it now has a child tray. The new adapter for the infant car seat doubles as a child tray. The second improvement is on the parent tray, the middle section that holds personal belongings now has a zippered compartment. Chicco has recently made adapter/child tray for the old models.
Infant car seat
As mentioned earlier, the infant car seat for this combo is the keyfit 30. It is recommended for babies from 4-30 lbs. It has a soft insert that provides extra support for babies 4-11 lbs.
This car seat features a dual bubble level indicator and a recline sure leveling foot that helps in achieving proper installation. It is latch equipped for a more secured installation. The seat interior is lined with EPS energy absorbing foam for improved impact protection. The canopy adjust to multiple positions.
This car seat removes easily from its base and the stroller to make transition from car to stroller and back seamless. The underside of the base is smooth and this helps protect against damage to vehicle seat. This car seat is FAA approved for use in an aircraft. It is compatible with many other strollers.
Handlebar, canopy and parent tray
The handlebar adjust for height (in an up and down fashion not telescoping), making it comfortable for parent of a wide range of heights. It is comfortable to hold even for extended periods.
The parent tray has two cup holders and a middle section to hold phones and other personal belongings like car keys.
The canopy is big and adjustable. It has a mesh window that allows air to flow through. It can be removed alongside the stroller seat to make room for the infant car seat in the infant stage of the system.
