Versatile, smooth and comfortable for everyday use

YanaisyV

The Graco Modes Nest Stroller is stylish, smooth to push , and very versatile. The adjustable seat height keeps baby closer, and the ride feels stable and comfortable. Great design and functionality for everyday use .

Nest Stroller

Winter

Stroller meets our expectation. Though bulky but we love spacious so no problem. Lighter than how it looks.

Preface!

EmilySL

Easy to use, light weight, reliable, perfect for any outing! I love the storage area abd that o xan fold down the seat and change my baby in the stroller.

Best stroller ever!

NickyO

This is by far the best stroller I have bought I love that it can become a bassinet and not have different parts! Also I absolutely love how I can adjust the height! I will be recommending this to everyone!

American Name. Chinese import

Bigbob

Great Stroller, but for the price given for a piece of Chinese imported junk, I’d expect either a more attractive price point or a more sturdy design.

10/10 will buy again

Hannah333

I bought this used from Facebook market place and have absolutely loved it! It has held up extremely well to the many kids that have used it! It is a little bull and when the seat is clicked in you can only fold it us when the seat is in forward facing. The fabric is easily spot washable with mild soap and warm water and dried very quickly! My little boy loves getting in it and going for walks. Our terrain is quite bumpy and the stroller doesn’t handle it super well but on flat pavement or grass it works great! I am obsessed with the option to lay it down to a Pram or have it seated in the same unit! And then removal and infant car seat placement without extra adapters is a vibe👏🏼 Will absolutely be buying this for future parents!

Misleading advertising!!! Don’t buy this

CBCT

The large photo shows it has car seat attached to the stroller with heading ‘3-in-1’ and printed ‘Infant Car Seat Carrier’ Then below IN LITTLE PRINT’ it says ‘car seat not included’ Secondly, we are missing the strap in the back which would incline the pram to seating position so I don’t thing comfort is there for the baby.

We love this stroller!

Anonymous

I absolutely love this stroller. It feels very sturdy and has all of the features of the more expensive strollers on the market, but a fraction of the cost. I especially love the adjustable height and the ability to place the seat rear or forward facing. The seat itself comes off quickly and easily in the event that the baby is asleep in his car seat and we just want to snap the infant carrier directly into the stroller base instead of utilizing the full sized seat. Highly recommend.

Suburban XL of strollers

DD M

This stroller/travel system is a nice setup. You can feel the quality in all the system components (as it should be for the price) and it is easy to use. I purchased the travel set with the infant carrier and my daughter loves the carrier. I will say that if you are looking for a compact stroller or are limited on trunk space...then this is probably not the stroller for you. This stroller is overall much bigger than your average stroller as the height is adjustable for the carrier/toddler setup. Thus making the stroller height in the handle area much larger. For reference: I'm 5'1 this stroller stands as tall as me mid-breast; that's tall. It is not heavy, just tall and wide, wider than your average door frame in your home. The ride on this stroller is smooth and is soothing to my daughter when she is in it.

Spacious, modern, but bulky

Brett brum

I bought this stroller originally thinking it converted to a two seater. It doesn’t, however still does what we need it to for right now. The stroller is easy set up and install. The basket is sturdy and spacious, wheels do well in grass-gravel-paved. The seat itself feels a bit wobbly the way it suspends in the air, but is stable and hasn’t come loose. I like that the seat can flip back and forth and even lie flat for naps. The cons would be driving it in stores and turning the stroller around in a store aisle (like clothing store) can be a bit challenging. Otherwise I love this stroller!

So far so good!

Katie Latif

We love this stroller! We have had it for about a month now and its been great. This stroller is super smooth and I love that you can just click the car seat in and out - this makes it so much easier if baby is sleeping so I don't have to disrupt him by taking him out of his car seat to put him in the stroller. folding it up and everything is nice and easy too. This is our first baby and honestly I had no clue which stroller to get when I was looking, but my husband and I have both been very pleased with this one! Definitely recommend. (:

The most cumbersome poor quality stroller

Ebby

I have been using this stroller for ten months now. First of all, the baby has to be removed when moving from a laying to sitting position so, if you were hoping to be able to gently lay a baby who drifted off mid walk, look elsewhere. It takes up a ton of space when folded. And the bassinet has to be removed to fold it. It’s a two handed fold and doesn’t stand when folded. Neither of which seemed like a major issue until baby became more mobile. Now it’s a nightmare. The straps are also extremely cumbersome. The shoulder pads come off way too easily, the waist straps are attached in the perfect location for baby to sit on and they take so long to insert the shoulder strap into the waist strap before bucking it into the buckle. About 2 months into use, the wheels started squeaking. Rust is now appearing on the (now loose) metal caps on the front wheels. Other parts of the stroller also revealed to be flimsy: one of the mechanisms to collapse the stroller triggers much more easily than the other and one side of the stroller handle feels a bit lower than the other when baby is in the uppermost slide to me position. Super disappointed. Buy ANY other stroller.

Amazing features.

Baby313

I bought this 3 months ago and I am so happy. It’s easy to take on trips and carry easily into the car.

LOVE THIS STROLLER!

Carly15

I just had my first child and have been eyeballing this travel system for MONTHS. I got one as a baby shower gift and I am in love. It is so easy to use, fits in my hyundai elantra, and all the seats attach easily. My son loves this stroller and carseat. The storage compartment is huge. I can fit 2 full diaper bag backpacks, my purse, and shopping bags. I highly recommend this travel system!

Love this travel system!

Sarahws

We love the modes nest travel system. Very easy to use and stylish. Love the click connect system to know the car seat snaps in correctly

Functional, and easy-to-use

Firsttimemommy123

I bought this stroller for my first child. It is easy for me to pack it in the car and open/close it myself. It’s a little bulky, but that’s to be expected. I love that I can turn the seat around to face away from the sun, but this is sometimes a little difficult to do when I’m using it alone. The basket on the bottom holds everything perfectly! Overall, I am really happy with this stroller! Because of the pandemic, we didn’t use the bassinet feature much.

Best stroller ever

Swethu

I am a big fan of Graco products, I bought this for my son and I am in love with it.

Super easy

Gny1

I’ve used it a few times (I’m a nanny) and its super easy to work. It also drives super smooth!

Easy to fold!

SKE22

We have had this stroller for a year now and love it! The storage is great. Easy to fold/unfold.

Favorite stroller

Nola mom

I’ve own this stroller in the dlx version and I can’t say enough great things about it. I love the height adjustment and the toddler/bassinet seat. It’s my favorite features of it. Much more convenient to have a convertible option than two separate pieces.

Easy to assemble

Lizzyjordan20

I received this as a baby shower gift and it was perfect for my everyday needs with the newborn. Meets all my expectations and more!

Great stroller

Anonymous

I got this as a baby shower gift and I can't wait to use it! I love all the features and I love that you can adjust the height of the handle because I am tall.

Great gift

Bettysg

I Got this as a baby shower gift along with car seat. I love that i can put baby facing outward or facing me as well as having baby close to me!

Amazing Quality

Ezmommy

I bought this for my sister in law and she absolutely loves it! Worth every penny. Truly a great gift to give and something a baby will use for a long time

Very easy to use

I got my stroller and car seat combo as a gift and I take it everywhere. It’s so simple to use!

Comfort and variety

Mommy621

We bought this for our son and love the variety! It pushes and turns so smoothly.

Love it

Jikarryon

Brought this set for my newborn. I love how easy it is too use.

My favorite stroller

Latania

I've always been a graco mom since my oldest daughter 13 years ago. 6 months ago I welcomed my 3rd baby, and I already knew in my mind I wanted the Graco mode stroller. This Graco mode nest stroller is the latest on the mode market, and it absolutely love the sliding feature. Especially when I'm out and about shopping. The large basket underneath can hold so many bags. I love the sliding ability to bring baby closer to me for a quick feed, or when dad is pushing since he's taller. I highly recommend!

Easy to assemble

Rai24

I bought this a month ago for my new born baby I'm so glad I did. The ones from other brands they have in stores seem si week as if they are meant to be used only one day. Grace's quality is way much more better than those.

Lightweight, sturdy and modern!

Ro305

Purchased this for my nephew and was able to feel confident in my decision knowing it was light enough for a new mother to carry as needed into vehicle or house. Wonderful space for extra bags and clear view of child.

Great features love that you can put the car seat

Mickyes

Great features love that you can put the car seat in there

Rox Thefox

Great product and super easy to use. Would of love to have the choice of color.

Easy to use by first-timers!

Portland Parents

We purchased this for our fifth grandchild born on 9-11. It is light weight and portable. It has been easy to use by his first-time parents. They like the flexibility of its functions and look forward to being able to use it as he grows.

Great quality

Priyanga

This is good quality product and worth investment. Super comfortable and breathable material for babies in summer. My baby enjoys his walk in it

Good product

I am happy with the product and it’s features . I love to recommend others.

Stroller

Dip0813

We LOVE our Modes Nest Stroller. The only negative thing I have about it is there’s no second cup holder for the parents. But overall it’s the best. The bassinet has come in handy so many times.

Quality Product always

mins

I bought this last year for my baby as a gift from my sister. Super easy to use and sturdy. Although I ave gotten a travel stroller for short walks just for the sheer size and light weight . but this is also very portable and definitely recommended

Awesome,awesome stroller!!!!!!!!!!

Bella21

My sister has this stroller and she brings it every where with her!!!!! Not only it’s is super convenient but it is very durable too!!!! Not only That but it is super comfortable too!!! I highly recommend!!!!!!!!!!

Great price for product

Bnohemy11

We love all the features and we always get compliments and love that the stroller isn’t so heavy

Does not overcome barriers smoothly.

Noza2

It hard to use when crossing the roads. It is hard to walk on cement uneven sidewalks.

Great, until it wasn’t

Jessigoblue

I bought this a few months ago before my son was born. Worked great for his first 2 months and now the stroller will not stay upright when folded. This makes storage a challenge and getting the stroller in and out alone an issue. I was expecting this to last for years, not 2 months.

Love this stroller for storage

Anonymous

i love it so far! got it for baby #3 and with two little kids the storage was key as they always have lots of stuff! my only downside was my two year old fits a bit snug height wise in the stroller. I havent figured out if there is a seat adjustment yet vs the awning.

Love the flexibility

Happy Pappy

I bought this stroller for when our grandson visits from out of state. Afterall, who wants to haul a stroller on a plane. We love the flexibility which allows him to face towards us or face out to the world. Facing out can become somewhat over stimulating after a while, but with a quick change he can look at Mommy or Daddy (his whole world). Being able to lay him completely flat when he falls asleep helps him sleep longer and keep him on schedule. The three height positions leaves plenty of storage space in the under basket for new toys, books and clothes, when Pappy just can't resist. The ride is smooth, turns on a dime and love how easy it is to operate. Best decision we made, now we just have to stop the parents sneaking it away with them when they leave!!!

Not too happy

Anonymous

The stroller is comfortable in some point but the carset doesn’t bring enough support for the baby back is too deep. My baby body doesn’t have enough support for the head or for his body I have to put extra things on him because he does not feel comfortable. He suffers from reflux and when I drive I have the tension that he will always vomit and I have to stop in the middle of the highway if necessary. My baby is one month old.

WE LOVE OUR NEW STROLLER

Gabby R

Amazing! My son finally loves being in a stroller!!

Don’t buy it!

Cesilu

One of the pin that goes on the wheel come out when we tried out the wheel come out, tried to put the pin a lot of times and Gave me the same error! So I send it back!

Cheap and frustrating to use

Anonymous

I would highly not recommend this item. The car seat handle constantly gets stuck, and the stroller is so cheap and difficult to manage/ move. The social media influencers make it look easy to use, but it’s just a pain all around.

perfect

I like it a lot, it is comfortable, it drives super well and my baby likes it

Awesome Stroller

HappyGrandma62

This is the stroller my daughter picked out for her registry. I purchased it for my first grand child to be and can’t wait to try it out! It is so well made and we love the way you can adjust the stroller into different settings for the baby

Great Gift idea for your grand or great grandchild

Mammom

My granddaughter loves this stroller, I know my great grandson will too

Brilliant stroller!

Pokabelly

Love the slide to me feature and the expandable part on the basket. With the slide to me feature baby is up nice and high and close to me. Made it so much easier after having c-section to not have to bend. Also love that the bassinet or car seat if using those can face forward or backward. Most strollers it can only gave backward. Now that baby is a bit older she loves that she sits up high and can see lots of things. The expandable part on the basket is great for helping to hold things in. Another great feature is it stands when folded. I hate when strollers fold and the frame hits the ground and gets scraped up. Would def recommend this stroller. It rides nice over nearly all terrains. Can't fault it.

Amazing stroller!

Kbug14

Stroller is very spacious and easy to use, folding and unfolding very simple. Overall I love the product and love that it will grow with my little one

Huge basket and comfortable seat!

Jakew22

Love this stroller! Has much more storage than the other ones we looked at. It’s also nice that our graco infant seat clips right in. Would definitely recommend!

Very Impressed!

Lex711

I recently brought this stroller & it lives up to its expectations! I have nothing bad to say about this stroller. I’d definitely recommend!

Love the adjustable height feature

laura1990

Bought this a couple of moths ago. Love the ease of use.

Stylish, practical, and budget friendly stroller

VictoriaN

After months of research that had me considering shelling out the cash for an Uppababy or Mockingbird stroller, I was very excited to see that Graco came out with a comparable stroller - both in style and function. The aesthetics are very pleasing without being impractical - I love the faux leather handle, clean lines, and the lightness of the sleek aluminum frame. This stroller has a leg-up on the competition based on one particular feature: the seat turns into a bassinet. I am able to comfortably take my infant on walks around the neighborhood in the bassinet, and just as easily detach the bassinet/seat from the frame so I can take the frame along with me on trips to the store where I attach my infant carrier. I appreciate that this stroller has variable height options for the seat/bassinet/infant carrier so that I can easily reach down and adjust my baby’s clothing, etc. while on the go. The stroller is easy to handle for being full size, it is so easy even on solo trips to the store. Overall, after 3+ months of use, I highly recommend this stroller!

Amazing features and easy handling

Draeya97

Very easy to set up and it’s very easy to use. We love it

BEAUTIFUL !!

Lele89

Easy to put together. I did it on my own 7 months pregnant. Lol to say I did it fast would be a lie BUT it was easy. The stroller is just BEAUTIFUL. Stroller seat to bassinet mode is as easy as one hand pull or push forward . To open it WITH seat attached is NOT easy as I thought. You need to two hand pull and push both side handles but for one set back as this I would still choose this stroller. The bottom is huge and has ALOT of space. The handle bar is nice and smooth.

Easy Stroller, especially if you have an older Sib

ElleJPeaBee

Logistics: amazing travel stroller! Wish I had this with number one. It’s been great for number two and even easier to use when my toddler is running around. Assembly Factors: EASY, but then again I don’t usually use manuals. But if I did it without one, then it’s going to be really easy if you read the manual cover to cover. The wheels were a little tricky, but again I like to put things together and see if I can do it without the manual. Awesome Factors: very easy to fold down and open up. Easy to take turns, smooth ride and easy to get up over small lips and curbs. The basket on the bottom is easily accessible and you can store A LOT in there. So if you live in an urban area, this is your basket. The upright seat is way to face forward and backward, with different height levels! This is a plus as your child grows Annoying Factors: the harness- all points need to be attached and then re-attached. You can’t keep the bottom points close. IE: easy slip in and out. It’s not a compact stroller, so if you have a large trunk, then you’re good to go. But we cannot put this in the sedan trunk only our SUV I received this stroller as a part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel. All opinions are my own

Love the Versatility!

MamaNichol2016

My youngest son (1½ years old) has reached that point in his toddlerhood that he strongly dislikes long stroller rides. Then there's my oldest son who is very tall for his age (3½ years old), to the point that his feet drag on the wheels when he rides in a stroller. 2 significant struggles when you're trying to keep kids happy when out and about. When I received the Modes Nest from the Stellar Product Testing Panel to try and review, I was immediately impressed with 2 of it's features: adjustable facing (perfect for my youngest) and adjustable height (for my oldest). Today we ran some errands with my youngest and tried both forward and rear facing! We put him in the highest position and it was easy to interact with him and he was able to hold hands with my husband as we strolled down the aisles of one of our favorite stores! But when he was forward facing, he kept asking for mama or dada when we would go out of sight. At our second store, we switched it to rear facing and you could tell he enjoyed that more because he could see us! He was high enough up that we could interact without having to bend over too much! I really loved the height of the push bar, it was the perfect height for me! It also had a nice cushion on it to keep your hands comfortable. I'm amazed at how easy it was to fold up, open, adjust the seat heat and switch seating direction! It was very easy to maneuver, most of which I could easily do with one hand, super important when you have 2 small humans to watch over! Also, there was a large cargo space on the bottom, a deficiency that most strollers I've used in the past have had. The fact that a large tote or diaper bag can fit nicely without being crammed in, I think is a big plus for me! There were only a few things that I wish were a little different. There's only one cup holder for adults and it's not movable, the position where it's at is fine when the seat is forward facing, but I could see him grabbing at it when he's rear facing. The cup holder on the child's tray is not large enough for their water cups, so during the summer I could see that being an issue with keeping their bottles in the stroller. It would be nice if the trays and arms that connect it were all one piece, instead of 3 separate pieces that need to be removed to make it more compact. I can't wait to really put this to use this spring when we're able to go on more walks outside!

Fantastic stroller

LG12

I received this stroller to try as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel, and I am so glad that I did. Overall, it is a fantastic stroller. The bassinet feature would be perfect with a newborn/infant, and I sure wish I had this when my littles were that young! It is very easy to switch from seat to bassinet and back. It also works with a ClickConnect infant car seat. My car seat clicked in with ease. Having the ability to flip the seat around to face me is so nice, especially during the separation anxiety phase or when baby gets a bit overwhelmed by their surroundings. My absolute favorite part of this stroller has to be the ability to move the seat up a bit higher. This feature will come in so handy for out many trips to the zoo. With other strollers, my child would never have a decent view of the animals while sitting in the stroller, but with the ability to raise the seat, she will be able to see so much more! A few other perks I must mention include the ENORMOUS (and even expandable) basket and the ease of steering. My 3-year-old could sit in the basket under the seat comfortably (this is only for size reference; I didn’t actually put my child in the basket!) I never have to worry about dragging too much stuff along with us on our adventures. The basket is so roomy, and it is so easily accessible, especially with the seat raised. The stroller is very well balanced and steers with ease. It lovely to be able to push my 1-year-old with one hand, and still be able to hold my 3-year-old's hand. I really like the features of this stroller, but felt one thing was really lacking, especially given the price: there is not a parents' console. There is only one small cup holder, which doesn’t seem too stable. I really would like to have had a full tray/cup holder area to put a drink or two, my phone, and my keys. Even a zippered pocket built into the canopy for phone and keys would have been better than nothing. It is not ideal to have to throw my keys into the giant basket then have to find them again later. If the stroller was upgraded to include a better parents' tray option, I’d say this is the perfect stroller from birth on.

Luxurious: Newborn years to toddler years

Katienellie

I was lucky receive this stroller as a part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel. My favorite feature is the storage. I can fit all that and a bag of chips in this basket underneath. I basically did all of my shopping at sams club with this stroller- now that is something to brag about. It maneuvers smoothly and when we took it on uneven ground it performed extremely well. It took a few times for me to get comfortable folding it up into my small cars trunk. I love that this stroller can transition from the newborn/infant years into the toddler years. I’m a huge fan of minimalism and finding baby products that can serve multiple purposes. The Graco Modes checks all the boxes!

A Travel System that is not Heavy and Bulky

redrocksgirl

I am a mom of a three year old and a six month old. With my first baby, I looked at travel systems and found them to be heavy, bulky, and cumbersome and not at all easy for a new mom to get out of the house. I have had the opportunity to use this stroller for a couple weeks and have been delighted by it's functionality and the ease of switching between the three options of bassinet, car seat, and toddler seat. First, I found the assembly to be pretty easy overall. I did struggle a bit with the wheel diagrams, but my husband was able to quickly figure it out. We were able to put it together in 25 minutes. The stroller looks elegant and higher end. I think the color of the sun bonnet is lovely. It is a very aesthetically pleasing design. I found it a little tricky to change from toddler seat to bassinet at first, however, after doing it a few times it was easy to get the hang of it. I love the toddler seat design as it can switch from outward facing to facing mom and it transitions easily. The seat is easily adjustable to three different heights. I especially like this feature as I prefer to keep my six month old high and closer to my eye level. But when my three year old rode I had her seat at the lowest setting. It's very easy to adjust and I didn't even need to read the instruction manual to figure it out. One of my favorite features is the generously sized basket on the bottom. It can fit a diaper bag, groceries, and your toddler's dinosaurs and trucks easily. The stroller maneuvers very well and was a smooth ride for my baby and toddler. It really turns on a dime. I was happily surprised by how light the stroller is considering you can use this stroller from birth through toddler hood. I found the stroller very easy to fold and unfold quickly. I even got the point I could unfold it one handed, which is very important with two kids. One of the downsides to me is that the handle isn't adjustable height wise. It was the perfect height for me at 5'8", but I could see a shorter parent thinking it was too high. I also didn't love the design of the five point harness. You have to connect the over the shoulder strap with the bottom strap each time and then click it in the center. The other downside is that folded up it does take up a fair amount of space. I have a Subaru Outback so had ample space, but it could be an issue if you have a compact trunk or are tight on space. Overall I was very happy with this stroller. I think its a good one for first time parents or parents with very young children. If you have a toddler it's probably best to choose a different option, but this stroller will take you from birth through toddler hood with ease and you will look great doing it. I received this stroller as a part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel. All opinions are my own.

Favorite GRACO Purchase!

Acsi

I purchased the Modes Nest stroller for my sister-in-law as a baby shower gift. The stroller is so versatile in the different ways that the baby can sit, lay and recline. I love the color pallet as well. I purchased the grey and black option so the stroller can be used with both her daughter and son!

Quality Stroller! A Must-Have

Brittanyjo_xo

This stroller is a great quality stroller with so many great features! -Loves- -It was quick and easy to put together. -The seat/bassinet is made from a durable yet comfortable material. -A unique feature is the chair is adjustable to 3 different heights to bring your little one closer to you or lower down to the ground. -To transition the chair to a bassinet is simple with a slider on the backside and there is a removable snack tray. -When in the chair position there is a built-in footrest that has leather for simple cleaning. -A five-point harness is used to secure your little one for safe strolling but can easily be used as a three-point seatbelt as they get older. -The storage basket underneath the chair is HUGE and is also expandable! -The stroller moves and maneuvers with ease. -There's even a cup holder for mama's coffee! -Misses- -The stroller is very spacious but because of this it can be hard to fit into tighter places -It would have been nice to have a build-in stroller caddy on the handle -Sometimes it was difficult to find the closure clip to open the stroller if the clip was a different color maybe it would be easier. If your a mama looking to invest in a stroller that is going to last and transition with your family this is the one for you! We will be using this stroller for years to come. Great Job Graco! Thanks to Stellar Product Testing Panel for sending this stroller to us to try out!

Great stroller for a young baby!

lsharp412

This stroller seems geared toward parents with a young infant. It quickly folds down into a bassinet and I absolutely love the option of facing the child towards you and being able to pull them closer! However, we have a 17 month old and a 3 year old, so we are just transitioning out of the most beneficial stage of this stroller with the bassinet and carseat connect.  While both of our girls do enjoy riding in this stroller, I prefer the ease of mobility of our three-wheeled jogging stroller or the compactability of our umbrella stroller.   I was surprised with how smoothly this stroller rolls. It glides nicely, turns on a dime, and is lightweight enough to manage curbs fairly well. However, in my experience, you just cannot beat the ease of how a three-wheeled jogging stroller smoothly pops over curbs and maneuvers rough terrain.  I love being able to adjust the height of the seat and pull my child up closer to me! My daughter always smiles when I pull her up! I also love having the option of turning the seat around and seeing my daughter's reactions on the stroll if I want! The seat is lightweight and easy to quickly flip around; I just wish I could do it safely with my daughter inside!  My daughter didn't want to lie down and try the bassinet feature without a fuss, but I would have loved this when she was younger. Very convenient for a young baby! As is the ability to connect a Graco carseat. I love that you can face the carseat either direction like the regular seat.  As far as the storage goes, oh my goodness, there is so much!! You could easily pile a lot of baby gear and blankets in this stroller! Compared to our other strollers this one wins for most storage space!  However, it is disappointing that the maximum weight recommended is 10 pounds. So much room for such a small weight limit...   At 5'10," the height of the handle bar feels perfectly comfortable when I push this stroller. I love how much the canopy covers the child when you have it all the way unfolded. Between sunlight or rain, a big canopy is an essential to me, and this is a good one. Folding the stroller is pretty quick as long as you have the seat facing the correct direction. I still have not fully mastered unfolding it. It takes me awhile to find the clip holding it together, and it is awkward pulling the sets of wheels apart with the canopy piece in the way. The stroller does stand up by itself once folded, but it does still take up a fair amount of space. The strapping in design is too fiddly for my liking, but it does serve its purpose. Other strollers I have used have a better strap design. You have to connect the over-the-shoulder strap to the waist strap every single time on each side. I wish Graco could redesign their 5 point harness strap design for less hassle. Other Graco products I own are the same way.   Even though this stroller is not my favorite, my daughters do both enjoy it a lot! Going for a stroll is one of our favorite things to do, and they love the option of looking at me when we are out and about! While there isn't a whole lot to complain about with the Modes Nest stroller, this would not likely be the stroller I would grab as I head out the door. If my daughter was still under a year old however, it would be the one I grab! Thank you to Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing us with this free stroller.

Great for first time parents or urban dwellers

So I was given the Graco Modes Nest stroller from Stellar Product Reviews to try out. It came with a stroller seat that can be converted into a bassinet. Everything came in one gigantic box and assemble was pretty easy even with a preschooler and a first grader trying their best to distract me. Upon completion, I let our 11 month old test it out. Here are our thoughts: -Nice option for completely flat naps when on the go, however in order to convert from sitting to laying, someone needs to hold the baby. -Stroller glides across various surfaces smoothly and is easy to maneuver. -I loved that we could place the seat facing us or street facing. -I am a petite person so it was nice to be able to adjust the seat at various heights. -The basket underneath is gigantic and perfect when running errands. -Although it is always nice to have a cupholder, having it on the side of the stroller (as pictured) isn't convenient as it easily falls off if bumped...maybe place it at the handle as with previous models. -We love the faux leather handle when pushing the stroller, however I am a petite person so it was at an awkward height for me to push whereas it was perfect for my 5'10 tall husband...I felt like my 6 year old pushing a stroller. -If you are familiar with Graco strollers, then you can probably find the latch to unfold the stroller without any hesitation. Sadly we struggled with finding the latch and unlatching it all the time, guess we will have to continue to use it until we get the hang of it. -If you have a smallish trunk, removing the seat/bassinet allows you to place the frame in easily and then tuck the seat/bassinet next to it. -If you do not remove the seat/bassinet and you fold it, the inside part of the seat where baby sits/sleeps is completely exposed so probably not a good stroller for checking in at an airport gate without a bag. -We have a three kiddo household so being able to fold up a stroller quickly and corral the older kids into the van is crucial; with the difficulty of finding the latch and using both hands it is a bit cumbersome. Overall although I wanted to love love this stroller, it just isn't the right fit for our family. However, I do think it would be perfect for first time parents, parents/caregivers taking baby out into the neighborhood strolls to nap in bassinet mode, or running errands in the city without having to fold/unfold it multiple times.

Versatile stroller

The “slide 2 me” concept is really neat, so I was interested to see what this stroller would be like in person. I have an infant and a toddler so I thought this stroller could be really useful! Being able to turn the seat outward or inward was really appealing to me. First things first, I want to thank Stellar Product Testing Panel for this stroller. However, putting the stroller together was a little frustrating. It just wasn’t intuitive to me at all, I think I’m fairly competent when it comes to this stuff so I’m not sure if anyone else had this problem. Aside from setting it up, opening and closing the stroller was easy and it’s nice that when it’s closed it stands up on its own. Not all strollers do that. The height adjustment of the seat was easy too, there are 3 different height settings. Using the stroller with the car seat was super simple, it’s nice being able to position baby closer to you. I don’t think I’d put a large toddler in the very highest setting though, it seemed kind of awkward to me. My son is very large, so he didn’t fit in the bassinet, but I turned it back to the toddler seat and that worked well for my daughter. It’s fairly simple to make the transition from one to the other. One of the best things is the basket! You could easily go grocery shopping, run errands, or do whatever and have room for all your stuff. My diaper bag fit easily in there. This could even be a good stroller for Disney! All in all, my kids enjoyed the stroller and for the price this is a great option if you are not looking to spend double or triple the price for a convertible stroller.

Amazing stroller for baby to toddler

Kbondi

I’m super impressed with this stroller. I can’t choose a favorite feature but I love having the ability to adjust the height when my toddler is riding. I love having him on the highest setting when facing me because we can interact and it’s super quick and easy to flip the seat around if he wants to see everything in front of him. The stroller rides and turns so smoothly and folds up extremely easily, almost on its own and then even stands up without falling over. It’s very lightweight and was easy to move around my garage and in and out of the car. The basket underneath has much more room than any other stroller I’ve used and the sunshade is large and sturdy but is easily adjustable. My ONLY complaint is that my 3 year old was very excited to try it out but her head was too tall to fit and she is very small for her age so I’m sad that I’d only be able to use the stroller a couple years since I love it so much. I don’t currently have an infant so I didn’t get to try the bassinet but I love that the seat changes into one so it’s not an extra part to store. I received this stroller through the Stellar Product Testing Panel but if I have another baby I’m going to purchase a Graco infant car seat so that I can use this stroller the whole time with him/her.

Versatile & Convenient, Must Have Stroller

hellobethany86

I received this stroller through the Stellar Product Testing Panel. At first, I was intimidated by everything this stroller claimed to do. A bassinet, a toddler stroller & the ability to snap in a car seat to just the frame. I thought it would be difficult to maneuver and be bulky, but I was wrong! The stroller was easy to put together & with no tools necessary, mostly clicking & locking into place. The directions made it easy to figure out how to change it from one mode to the next. I have a one year old daughter & thought the toddler seat was great. It was easy to adjust for her & she was comfortable in it. I love how big the basket is in the bottom of the stroller, perfect to fit the diaper bag or whatever else I need to bring along. I tried out my daughter’s car seat, snapping it quickly & easily onto the frame. The bassinet feature was really nice & I look forward to trying it with a future baby! It seemed sturdy & comfortable for a baby. Finally, the stroller was very easy to fold up & store with the push of two buttons & a swift pull. The Graco Modes Nest Stroller is the best, most functional & stylish stroller I have seen & experienced & I would recommend it to every parent!

Loved it at first but...

I've received this stroller thanks to Stellar Product Testing Panel since I was really interested in it having my 4th child just recently! Once the product arrived, unboxing was a breeze, installation was super easy even those whom hate assembly can swiftly put it altogether. My first impression of this stroller was TALL. I'm a short person (5'2-157 cm) and this stroller is nearly my height. The seat is really spacious for a toddler that my four years old gets a little lost in it (she's petite herself though with an average height and weighs 17 kg) her younger sister (2 years old, weighs 13 kg) hopped on - rather squished her- and it was surprisingly moderate while maneuvering it around. However the seating is so big that the snack bar was above her head level so I'm unsure if I assembled it right or my kids are too small. Everything aside, you can turn the stroller with a little force by one hand easily. The brakes are somewhat sturdy. The stroller itself isn't really as lightweight as Ive hoped but folding/unfolding is fast to figure them out. The wheels are good but the front ones need a strong push for them to step over hurdles as they tend to get stuck easily. The canopy is really nice and it goes a long way, protecting our little ones from the heat adequately. The cup holder is neat I use it for my phone haha. The storage underneath is really refreshing since it's wide enough for my two years old to lay down there with her legs stretched out which is a big WIN for me since I tend to overpack!! Closing the stroller and carrying it around can be a little awkward with the seat being in the way. I'd recommend this stroller occasionally but would not call it lightweight. But convenient to feel like you're really close to your kid. Feels more like a moving chair than a stroller honestly.

Great stroller for first time moms!

I received this stroller through the Stellar Product testing panel. We currently have the Graco Modes 3 Lite DLX, so it's been fun to compare the two. The Modes Nest is awesome because it has the bassinet in addition to the toddler seat and the ability to attach an infant car seat. The directions were simple and easy to follow and assembly was quick. I only used the toddler seat when pushing the stroller because my toddlers are both out of infant carseats; however, they both loved how high up they sat in the stroller and were delighted when I adjusted the seat higher and lower. My older son (almost 3) now always requests to ride in "the big stroller" because of how high up he sits. It was also super easy to switch the position of the seat to face in and out--and easy to do on the fly. The Modes Nest is large, with tons of room in the basket beneath for storage. I found it very easy to collapse and, in spite of its size, it easily fit into the small trunk of our car. My one complaint is that I found the handle bar to be rather large in circumference and less comfortable to hold onto than our other stroller. It is easy to maneuver.

Great Stroller for the First Time Parent

BrynnandBleu

I had the opportunity to review the Modes(TM) Nest Stroller as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel. To say the least I was so excited - I have four children all under the age of six and although at this point I largely have everything I could need in terms of gear, the flip side to this is that the gear is getting older, has been around the block more than a few times, and it is rare to try something new because I am just trying to get through the last kiddo. However, I have used a ton of different gear in my tenure as a parent, and I can definitely tell you what works and what isn't worth the money. The stroller came in a box and needed to be assembled which was relatively easy to do. My first impression is that the stroller has a sleek design, looked like a high-end stroller due to the black frame and heather gray fabric, and ironically reminded me of the stroller I currently was using. It has a large basket underneath that is easily accessibly from both sides (this is very important) and came with a cup holder and toddler tray which is huge! It may sound silly to be excited about these little additions, but I paid a great deal of money for my existing stroller and I had to buy the cup holder and toddler tray separately. Also, when the stroller was collapsed, the overall frame and seat was relatively light. This seems like a small detail when all you have to do is collapse the stroller and take it in and out of car, but a heavy stroller can take its toll after awhile. This stroller also has the ability to be used three ways: as a traditional stroller for infants and toddlers; the seat can invert to become a bassinet (genius as many high end strollers offer a bassinet option but again, needs to be purchased separately); and as an infant car sear carrier. Also, the seat can move up or down on the frame which is a great option especially if you are a shorter parent (moving it down allows for a better viewpoint) or if you want to create more space in the basket underneath. In terms of functionality, this stroller is a good stroller. If you are a first time parent, and need a reliable stroller, Modes(TM) Nest gives you the sleek design of a high end model without the high price tag. However, as an experienced parent, I noticed a couple of things that were not ideal. As I mentioned earlier, the seat has the ability to collapse into a bassinet. There are a few things you need to do to make the seat a bassinet so the seat itself is not necessarily unreliable (it will not collapse into the bassinet function without physical manipulation) but due to its convertibility, the seat seems very pliable and flexible. My toddler was trying to sit forward in the seat and I noticed that the entire back of the seat was pulling way forward (almost inverting in the opposite direction). It seemed very "squishy" Also the seating position is very ram rod straight. You are able to recline the seat but your options seem to be a fairly complete recline or a ram rod straight position (whereas my current stroller allows for variations of recline). The other non-ideal item I would mention is that there are two foot brakes (one on each side of the rear wheels), but you need to engage both separately to engage the brakes. They should design the brakes to engage simultaneously regardless of which brake pad is suppressed. Lastly, this stroller did not have great one-hand maneuverability. This is so important when it comes to a good stroller. So many times as a parent you are trying to accomplish two things at once and I know that I always like to have great control with one hand if I need to utilize this option. Overall, this is a good stroller especially for a first time parent. Some of the things I mentioned above would not be obvious or seem like a necessity unless you have some experience. The price point is good and overall this stroller is good option! Thank you to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for the opportunity to review this stroller!

Nice light weight easy assemble

Zamma

Love this stroller bought for my son it was an easy assemble light weight me andy husband love this stroller and we get quite a bit of complients from other parents or grandparents when we're out and about!

Great versatile stroller!

Fosse82

Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this stroller. I am mom of two children (4 and 2) and I have used many strollers over the past few years. The Modes Nest Stroller is definitely a great stroller to use. The adjustable seat is a great feature that is not found on many strollers (if any!) and I love the ability to have my baby up closer to me and facing in either direction. Here are what I found as pros and cons: PROS: 1. Super Lightweight and easy to manuveur 2. Completely versatile with the adjustable seat (both in height and direction!) 3. LOVE that there is a bassinet option without having to purchase an additional piece 4. LOVE that you can use a car seat on this stroller 5. Folds up easy CONS: 1. Even though it folds up easy, I have other strollers that fold a little tighter that this one. I drive a Toyota Corolla and right now I can fit a wagon and my other single stroller just fine. The Nest does not fit in my trunk with the wagon, the wheels don't close flat enough. With that said, with no wagon in there it has plenty of room! 2. The stroller says it fits a toddler up to 50 lbs. My daughter is two (35 inches tall and about 29 lbs) and she does not fit in this stroller, she is already too big. I would say an infant to a very young toddler is realistic. 3. The seat was a little more flimsy for a heavier child. I think it would be fine for a smaller child/infant. However, when you push down a bit on the seat, it just feels like the seat is not that sturdy. 4. It was not as easy to put together as other strollers I have. In my experience, I have only had to pop wheels in. The Nest has pins and other parts to add the wheels to the base. Not a deal breaker but not a plus. 5. The parent cup holder is small and down on the side, I had to buy an add-on cup holder attachment to properly hold my items on the handle. Overall, I would definitely suggest this as a stroller!

Great options!

cuteeverything

I love taking walks with my baby and she loves it, too, and I'm really happy with this stroller, it is top-notch in quality and design. First, it is made really well. It's a full-size stroller with real metal, clever design, rugged and strong without compromising on it being so easy to use. It rolls along very smoothly -- the big soft wheels smooth out the ride very nicely, even at a jog. It's very easy to steer and turn, as tightly or gently as I need to do. The seat and/or bed is really well thought out and designed. They're made with fabric, and they convert quickly and simply, from a baby bed to a toddler stroller. The whole seat raises, lowers, or tilts. The bed can lay flat, like an old-fashioned baby carriage or bassinet, which would be great for newborns. When we go out on a walk and my daughter falls asleep in the fresh air, I just let her stay asleep for a nap in the stroller when we get home. As my baby grows, I really love how the seat can adjust with her. Plus, there is a big, roomy place to carry a baby bag and what-have-you in the hammock area, underneath the stroller. And the baby bed/seat moves up or down, to one of three settings, to whatever works best for you and it's really easy to slide and lock it into place. Excellent stroller! I received this stroller from the Stellar Product Testing Panel.

Super smooth

Cawilss

Wow! What a game changing stroller. Thank you stellar product testing panel for the chance to test out this stroller. I think when looking for a stroller it can be a daunting task. There are so many options and possibilities. What I LOVE about this stroller is that all of the possibilities are wrapped up in one. This stroller is super versatile, lightweight, stylish and the ride is smooth!! Because of the bassinet option, this stroller can be used from the beginning until toddlerhood. I am going to highlight a couple of my favorite features below. 1. The stroller has a bassinet mode which is amazing, but that’s not all! My favorite part about this stroller is that you don’t have to buy and “extra attachment”. The bassinet transforms into the seat for the toddler! How convenient. For parents this is great because you don’t have extra parts laying around and it saves you money! 2. The changeable heights. This is great especially postpartum. It bring the baby to a comfortable level for you! (Or your hubby). 3. The storage basket under the stroller is HUGE!! I have a toddler and a baby so it nice to have lots of space to store our things! 4. You can use your graco car seat in this stroller. So you have a travel system and it’s super easy in and out of the car to the store or wherever you need to go!! 5. Lastly the ride is so smooth! It’s so easy to turn even with my toddler in the seat! I never have to struggle with turning or pushing uphill. These are just a few reasons I love this stroller. If you’re looking for a stroller to last, I definitely recommend this one! From start to finish it will have you covered.

Well made and great features!

Bought this stroller and we are so pleased with the ease of movement and portability.

Great Versatile Stroller

mbakker

The Graco Modes Nest Stroller is great! Set up was fairly simple. I was impressed with how simple it is to switch between bassinet mode, stroller mode, and removing the seat to insert my infant car seat. My favorite part is that it is so easy to put the infant seat onto this stroller! This is so convenient. The basket on the bottom allows for a lot of storage space, especially when the seat is raised. I love pushing the stroller. It glides easily and feels so light to push. I have tried it with my infant and toddler, and they are both comfortable and enjoy riding in it. Collapsing the stroller and setting it back up takes some getting used to - it is not as simple as I had hoped. The biggest con for me is the snack tray. It is difficult to put on and take off, and it just seems to be in the way. I will likely just leave it off and at home most of the time. The ability to adjust the height of the seat is a nice feature, but in my mind it is not necessary. Overall, I think it is a great stroller. Thanks so much Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this stroller!

Highly recommended

Jjules

This stroller rocks. Lots of great features! If you are a mama of 3 like me, one of the most important things you will look for in a stroller is compartment space. This thing has that by spades. I can fit my bag, their bag, some snacks, water bottles, blankets, and I would still have some space left. My tiny boy even climbed in (disclaimer, the bin is not for babies, he just wanted to fit in and out really quick), and since the space is huuuuge he fit right in! The craftsmanship is superb. The handle bars feel flush. It is a very neat feature that you can pull the seat up and down depending how you want it. The seat can convert quite easily into a big bassinet that can fit my one year old AND my small two year old. The seat can also be flipped front to back. So many options! There is also a cup holder and snack tray. Assembly is a breeze. I did it with minimal help from the hubby and that speaks a lot on how easy the task is. It is easy to fold although it is a bit thick when folded. It is very easy to maneuver. We had our first graco stroller set 7 years ago and all I can say is Graco did a great job reinventing their products through the years. Highly recommended! Thanks Stellar Panel for letting me try this superb product.

Sophisticated stroller with great features!

breannem

The Graco Nest Modes stroller has tons of perks and is a great stroller for the price! The stroller has nice, clean lines and looks sophisticated. The very first thing I noticed is that compared to similar strollers, it has a very large seat, which is great for bigger babies/toddlers. The spf50 sunshade covers the entire seat, unlike on many other strollers. The storage basket beneath is also very large and easy to access, making this a great stroller for running errands! The adjustable height is an awesome feature that I haven't seen on other strollers before. I love this because depending on what we're doing, it's helpful to have the seat at different heights. I took my daughter for a walk in this stroller, and it was so nice to lower the seat to table height when we stopped for a snack. I really love being able to turn the seat to face either direction as well! While we're past the bassinet stage, I tested out switching the seat into bassinet mode just to see how it worked. It was much easier than I expected. The stroller was fairly easy to maneuver. I live in an old town with very bumpy sidewalks, and it struggled a bit to get over some of the bumps and curbs. On flatter terrain, however, it was very pleasant to push. I love that the adult cup holder and the child tray come with the stroller and aren't extra accessories to purchase. For a large stroller, this has a fairly compact fold and was easy to both open and fold up. While this stroller has some amazing features, I did find a few cons. The snack tray is great but hard to flip up and difficult for my daughter to reach while buckled into the seat. While the handle of the stroller looks nice, it's slick and hard to get a good grip on. We live in a very hilly town and it worried me to not be able to get a secure grip on the handlebar. Overall, this stroller has some great features, like the ability to adjust the seat height. With it's large basket, it's a great stroller for running errands but struggles on uneven terrain. Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this stroller.

Great features but a little awkward

KaitlinU

This is a great stroller with some awesome features, it’s just a little awkward for me. I’ve used a lot of strollers over the years and had some good things to compare this to. Being able to flip the seat from forward facing to rear facing was unmatched and I loved it (so did my toddler!). This would be great if you have an older baby/younger toddler who wants to sit in the seat but you want to see them. It was also incredibly easy to switch from a toddler seat to the bassinet. Being able to raise and lower the seat height is another great feature, my toddler loved being higher up than usual, it’s also super easy to change the height! The storage basket is HUGE! You can fit so much stuff in it, this is a definite plus if you’re going to use this stroller out and about. This also steers well, I was able to push while walking two dogs without too much issue; however, we live in a city with some bumpy sidewalks and I found the stroller didn’t handle cracks/rocks/bumps very well and I would often have to back up to get unstuck or push with a lot of oomph. If the sidewalks around you are maintained well or if you’re using this mostly indoors, this shouldn’t be an issue. I like that the mechanism to fold is on the handlebar, but it is hard to get fully closed and you also must have the seat in the forward facing position to get it to close completely. It is fairly compact (for a full sized stroller) once folded. It was awkward to find a spot to carry the stroller once folded with the seat in, there just wasn’t an easy way to grab it. The seat features and the storage really make this stroller, everything else had me wanting a little more. Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this stroller!

The Stroller of my Dreams!!!

KourtyDoughty

This stroller is truly amazing! I love that it has so many different modes to choose from (meaning I could click in a compatible infant seat, can be a bassinet, or sit like a normal stroller). It folds flat and is easy to load up for family trips or to store in the garage! The seat is also adjustable for height! I can lift it up so my son is closer to me or I can drop it lower and enjoy seeing everything my son can see (when he is facing out). The bassinet mode was a dream when we were out with family and he wanted to take a nap. Two simple steps and he could lay comfortably for a nap on the go! It was one of his best naps to date away from his bed! My son loves this stroller! He will even attempt to push it around to get us to load him up and take him outside! He loves being able to see us when he is facing in or see the world as he faces out (which is my favorite feature and what makes me love this stroller so much)! The extended canopy helps to keep the sun out of his face and make the ride comfortable! It pushes so smoothly and my husband and I swear that it must have a car’s suspension built in because it moves so well! It can turn on a dime and can make tight turns like nothing at all! The only issue I have is that the child’s tray can be a little difficult to lift to get my son in and out and to convert to a bassinet, but I think that will get easier with more use! This stroller has made all of my mama dreams come true! A huge THANK YOU to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this stroller!

Lightweight and easy to use

Anonymous

The Nest Stroller is a light and sturdy stroller. We tested it from the Stellar Product Testing Panel and are so lucky we were chosen. Normally I wouldn't bother taking my littles to the store or shopping because of the pain of getting out the stroller, however this product has changed that. It was so easy to fold up and open up. I could fit either my 2 year old or 10 month old without much fuss. It was so easy to adjust the back to lay or sit my child up. Very self evidence how to adjust and fit pieces without referring to the manual. I'm not sure if moving the seat up and down has a practicality but I couldn't find a preference to have her up or lower aside from fitting more stuff underneath. It was easy to slip it into bassinet mode so I don't have to bring more stuff with me when we travel. Both girls had so much fun in the stroller and it was the first time my 2 year old wanted me to run with her for a faster ride and had a blast.

Great product

Sassymum

Love it! Always amazing products through Graco will continue to purchase

A stroller that grows with you

Tiffanydawn89

Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel I was able to try out the new Graco Modes Nest Stroller. The stroller was easy to maneuver and I loved all the extra features, such as facing forward or backward and being able to raise or lower the seat. Although I don’t currently have an infant, I especially loved the bassinet mode, and how easy it was to transition from bassinet to toddler mode. The extra large basket underneath was another great touch. This stroller is very large and doesn’t fold up as small as I would like, but it is surprisingly light. Overall I think it has great features for a very reasonable price.

Pretty Good Stroller with Cool Features, but ...

Briarsmom11

I received the Graco Modes (TM) Next Stroller to review through the Stellar Product Testing Panel. This stroller has some pretty cool features, but there are some things that I think could be better. I'll start with the features that I thought were great! I love that you can slide the seat up and down on the frame. You have the flexibility to keep baby riding lower to ground or to move baby up closer to you. I think this is an excellent feature, especially if you have a younger baby riding in the stroller and you want to bring them up closer to Mom or Dad. I found this to be SUPER helpful at restaurants when high-chairs aren't available. We just raised the seat up the frame and pushed baby up to the table! I also love that you can switch the seat to front or back facing. Older babies may want to look around and people watch in the forward facing mode, but sometimes babies get over-stimulated, tired, fussy, or just bored and switching them to the back facing mode allows them to focus on you and less on the environment. I also love that the stroller converts from a bassinet to a big kid seat! My little one is older so we didn't use this feature, but you can also clip any Graco infant car seat on to the frame as well. Moving the seat up and down the frame, from forward to backward facing, and off and on the frame itself is super easy! The seat is lightweight so it would be easy for a busy parent to switch if they are on their own with their kiddos. I also fell in love with the HUGE storage basket under the seat. There is so much room to stash diaper bags, purses, blankets, whatever you may need to bring along. With all of that being said there are some things I'd love to see improved upon. I wish the push handle was adjustable. It was a little low for me and low enough to be uncomfortable for my husband. I also wish there was an all-terrain tire option. I also found folding up the stroller to be a little difficult. You need both hands to fold the stroller down and it didn't fold as compactly as I wish it would have. The last thing I'll mention is with how light weight the frame was it sometimes made the stroller seem a little bit unstable, especially when going up and down curbs and steps. I'd prefer a little heavier stroller that feels more sturdy when pushing around my little one. Overall, I do think this is a great stroller, especially for families with younger babies and lots of items to tote!!

A Sturdy, yet Compact, Stroller

Arb15

A Sturdy yet compact Stroller When I first put the Modes Nest Stroller together, I thought wow, this seems big! It is a large and very sturdy stroller. Which is why I was also surprised by how light and compact it is. I fit the whole stroller very easily into my trunk and closet and it was easy to maneuver. It walks very easily and feels light. I love the cover because it actually fully covers my baby, unlike many others. The feature to bring baby higher/closer is nice too. My baby is very curious and likes to look around and enjoyed this. The unit does not come with the car seat, but we actually have a graco car seat and base for the car, and it is really convenient to have the whole set. It also has great storage under the seat for groceries or a trip to the park. The only minor piece to consider when buying is to try all of the features at home before use. I read the directions cover to cover but had a little difficulty first figuring out how to unlatch the bottom unit. Once you figure it out it's super easy to do again. It also only took me 20 min to put together without help. Thanks to the Stellar Prodcut Testing Panel for letting me try this new product!

Versatile and Functional

Jlinscott

I received the Graco Modes Neat stroller through Stellar Panel and could not be more pleased! This stroller is versatile and functional. It works great for our 11 month old and cannot wait to utilize the bassinet function when our third arrives in July. It fits most Graco infant car seats and while it is large, it is not bulky. Thank you Graco and Stellar Panel!

Best stroller!!

My family loves the Modes Next Stroller! It is such a smooth ride. I love that I can push it with ease and it collapses quickly. It’s perfect for my 18 month old and wish I had owned it sooner, because the bassinet feature is awesome. The adjustable height makes baby and mama closer to each other. My favorite part is the huge storage area. It is great especially when you have multiple kids stuff to tote around. Would recommend this stroller to everyone! Even my 3 year old always want to ride in it. I was given this awesome stroller by the Stellar Product Testing Panel.

Lots of features!

Mom2FiveWildOnes

Purchased this stroller to use with our newborn foster baby, but have also used it with our 2yo and 3yo. It is super easy to convert between travel system, bassinet, and toddler seat. I also love that it parent faces! Took away one star because it is pretty large and bulky.

Awesome stroller!

KelcyYyy

Absolutely love this stroller system. Love that the seat can turn into a bassinet, perfect for middle of town naps! The system is super lightweight, and since it’s a bassinet, toddler seat, and you can click in the Car seat it’s perfect to grow with your babe. would definitely recommend!

Really easy to use

The perfect stroller

corvettekatie

I’ve been a Graco customer for many years and love not only the quality of their products but also the price. I recently purchased the Modes Nest stroller and absolutely love it... it has all the features and options I need as a mom, but also is easy to stow and go. I highly recommend this to any mom.

Very Spacious!

DOHDOH

I recieved this as a baby shower gift and I'm very pleased with it! The lower basket has so much room. It's a perfect stroller to take with you when you are out at the mall shopping! The seat itself is adjustable and can be adjusted to your comfortable height. My son is super comfortable while strolling as well. We are both pleased with this gift!

my favorite Brand

Gracono1fan

My favorite brand with excellent products.Really like the Nest mode design and easiness.

Perfect everyday stroller

Hprice617

We bought this for our newborn and are so excited with how easy it is to push and turn with one hand for when you are trying to shop or even walk the dog too.

So easy to use

H Dawg

It's compact, but still big enough for everything we need. My husband and I are tall so it's nice that we can raise our baby closer to use rather than bending over so much.

Great features

Jimee08

I just love how you can adjust your baby’s seat and all the room it gives you at the bottom for storage. Makes traveling much easier.

Amazing must have stoller

Naviles07

I recently bought the Modes™ Nest Stroller and let me tell you that this Stroller is a must for All Moms. I have had many different Graco strollers form single, and double to now the Modes™ Nest Stroller and I have never been more satisfied. Th his stroller is light and has amazing qualities like the large canopy to make sure my little one is covered when we are out and about exploring the world. Thanks Graco for making such amazing product. Note: This is my personal experience and did not get paid to review I just really love this stroller. From: A mother of four beautiful girls.

Such a neat stroller!

Wimpey54

An amazing friend of ours bought us this stroller when we started fostering. This stroller is lightweight, easy to maneuver, and the option to allow the child to be front or rear facing is wonderful! We've had toddlers that struggled with abandonment issues, so being able to face the parent while being strolled makes things so much easier on both of us! We are loyal Graco buyers and won't be changing anytime soon.

Best purchase ever

Prsantamaria

We initially had a different stroller, and had to switch to the Modes Nest and I have to say, best purchase ever. Super light, tons of space, grows with your baby. Should have been my 1st option. Recommend if you are a first time mamma

Gorgeous stroller!

Heartmama5

I love this stroller! I love that I can use babes car seat in it OR use it as a bassinet! The storage basket it huge no matter which seat you’re using with it. It’s a smooth ride and my son loves it! I love how I can pull him closer to me, especially since I have a herniated disc in my back. Only things I didn’t give it 5 stars for is that I wish it would have a bar recline as opposed to the button and strap system. And I wish it was an easier 1 hand fold but for a full size stroller that’s to be expected. Definitely recommend! ❤️

Awesome features

Yeini S

This was a gift to me for my second born child and I am in love with it. So easy to use perfect for infants comfortable.

Great features

I bought this a month ago and so glad I did I love this stroller.

Such a great idea

Usha Q

First of all the stroller is so sleek looking! The awning is so smooth, and just looks very nice and fancy! I love that. Second the options with this stroller really make me love it. The sliding part, so the baby can be closer to you is fantastic. and I love that you can switch the direction they are facing. We have had all grace travel systems for our kids, and they just keep improving and innovating. I would never buy a different system.

Perfect for our child

boble

Bought it when it was released. My wife & my child love it. It’s very sturdy and easy control than most of the other stroller. Strongly recommend it.

So smooth!

Kaywillly

This is baby number 4 and this stroller out does any before it’s time. Never going back.

Great Stroller!

Rose93

This stroller is great. I love that I can bring my little one higher up so we can interact easier and I can fit larger things in the bottom basket when we take trips to the zoo.

interesting feature

Amazing Stroller

hbon

Amazing stroller!!!! I love the luxury with the affordable price tag. My little loves the stroller he is always so comfortable. The large basket is a huge plus I can fit his diaper bag or anything else we need. I highly recommend this stroller!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Love the adjustable options

Carolniss

My husband and I just brought home our first child and were set on having a travel system, but also wanted a set that would grow with our little one. I love that the SnugRide goes up to 35 pounds, and that with both the car seat or the regular seat, there is a ton of room underneath. We like to walk to the park in our neighborhood, and we can bring everything we need just with this stroller. The infant bassinet option was the real seller for me though- having a place to let him safely sleep, comfortable, since they aren't supposed to sleep in the car seat for extended periods of time was something I loved.

Awesome stroller

Jmceach

Received as a gift. I absolutely love that I can bring my baby closer to me and he enjoys being able to be near me! I love the storage basket underneath as well. It’s so roomy!

Smooth ride

Stephanie0210

I bought this when my son was an infant and loved it, I ended up switching to the fast action jogging stroller because I’m a daily runner and did not need two strollers but the quality of the Nest stroller is amazing. Highly recommend

Love this stroller!

snuggie25489

I love this product. I have been a Graco customer for a long time and this is a great upgrade to a trusted product!

Exactly what we wanted!

Sj78

Just purchased this stroller as an upgrade from a hand me down! Absolutely LOVE the openness of the basket and the ability to move the seat! Exactly what I need!

Great!

Kylaaaaa

This stroller is awesome! My babe is super comfy in it and I love that there’s so much room to store stuff since the seat is a lot higher than most.

Lovely stroller!

Bernabe A

Great stroller I used a different system while my baby was and infant she was not comfy in the toddler seat so I decided to purchase a new stroller and she loves it! does not complain at all

Great Stroller

Vicky87

The features for this stroller makes caring for a infant easier. This stroller is good a growing infant into toddler.

So convenient!

Sinatra

I bought this for my daughter and she loves it. It's lightweight and fits in the car easily. The feature she likes best though is that she can have the baby facing either way, her previous stroller didn't have that. The bottom is able to hold enough that you don't even need hooks to attach your diaper bag. I wish it came in more girly colors but perhaps in the future. Overall I would recommend this stroller.

We love the quality and the ease

CLEDAC05

We just bought this and I am never going back. The features and details were very well thought out. The ease of moving the seat is flawless. I 100% recommend

i like the slick design , the bottom compartment and how you can slide the seat

Amazing stroller

Nataliea144

I have always loved graco strollers and this stroller has all the features of some expensive brands out there but it comes at a fraction of the cost. I absolutely love the fact that you can adjust and bring the baby closer to you and of course the fact that it can still transform into a bassinet is great for newborn stages. This stroller has the capacity to change from front to back so you can change the seat facing you or facing the other way. The brakes are amazing and the fact that it comes so sturdy I love that that it won’t break so easily. Adjusting it and folding it so easy as well. Well done graco!

Great stroller

Morganchar

Got this stroller as a gift and we love it! Moves great and travels nice!

Smooth ride

Billiammm

The little one and I go for walks fairly often and this stroller provides a super smooth ride. We both love it!

Overall best stroller!

Maria09g

Best stroller ever love that I can bring baby closer to me. I also love the basket on this and since the top seat moves up I have more room for extra and bigger things.

Exactly what i needed

Proudmammaof3

I got this stroller recently because our old one was too rickety. At first i didnt expect anything different than the usual. But the features on this stroller ate a game changer. This is where graco's innovative design ideas come out. The ability to bring the.baby closer to me during our walks ans grocery runs keeps the baby calmer and keeps my interaction going wherever we are. Who thought stroller time.would be bonding time!! Love it.
