Description

Travel systems ensure your baby gear works seamlessly together so you can switch between driving and walking without disturbing baby.

This Travel System is a 3-in-1 stroller with room for baby’s essentials. It converts from Infant Car Seat Carrier to Infant Stroller to Toddler Stroller for a versatile ride from infant to toddler.

For even more riding options, baby can ride parent-facing or forward-facing in the reversible stroller seat.

The travel system includes the Graco SnugRide Lite LX Infant Car Seat, rear-facing from 4-30 lbs, for seamless transition from car to stroller.

More features include a parent’s tray with cup holders and removable child’s tray with cup holders keep drinks and snacks at hand. A large storage basket holds essentials so you can stroll with everything you need. And whether you’re traveling or home for the day, a self-standing stroller fold ensures easy storage.

Wondering about the difference between the Graco Modes Element LX Travel System and the Graco Modes Element Travel System? The LX has fabrics that are slightly more plush, otherwise the details and dimensions are the same.

16 Questions
According to the Graco website,  the modes element does not have an infant pramette mode. Then why do users say the toddler seat can recline into a bassinet ? Can the baby sleep in this bassinet overnight on trips ? Thanks

Best Answer:  The Modes Element does not have a true infant pramette mode. It has a multi-position reclining toddler seat, and while some parents describe the deepest recline as "bassinet-like," the seat does not convert into a flat pramette like the Graco Modes Pramette or Modes Nest.

As for sleep, no. The reclined stroller seat is not approved for overnight or unsupervised sleep.

Do you need any accessories to snap the infant car seat into the Modes Element stroller?

Best Answer:  This comes with everything you need to attach the infant car seat to the stroller- no additional purchase necessary.

My baby has outgrown the infant car seat. Can I keep the same base while upgrading just the car seat? If so, what car seats are compatible?

Best Answer:  After baby outgrows the infant car seat, you can switch to a convertible car seat which includes an integrated/attached base. Only infant car seats have a removable base.

Is the handle bar adjustable? ?

Best Answer:  The handlebar is not adjustable.

Are the tires air filled or plastic? ?

Best Answer:  They are plastic all terrain wheels.

Can this be converted to a double stroller?

Best Answer:  This does not convert to a double.

What’s the difference between the Element and the Pramette system?

Best Answer:  The Modes Element features an infant stroller mode while the Modes Pramette converts to an infant pramette mode.

Do you have to have a base?

Best Answer:  This travel system already includes car seat base. You'll need a base for this car seat to ensure a secure and proper installation on your vehicle.

Does the folded stroller fit into an airplane overhead as a carry on?

Best Answer:  This Graco stroller system isn't described as carry on capable, but you'll want to reach out to your specific airline for allowable dimensions.

How much does the stroller weigh?

Best Answer:  The stroller weighs about 22.2 lbs.

Honestly was not impressed with the quality of this stroller. It was wobbly after a month or two so we ended up getting a new stroller. The car seat was very easy to install tho.

Not one handed and falls over when closed
This review was collected as part of a promotion
It said one step - that does NOT mean one handed.
And then when we closed the base, it falls over. Any mother with multiple things in her hands wants simple and easy and this was NOT it for us.

One step does not mean one-handed closing

I’ve loved the Graco products as a third time mom. I think their designs are great and the click system is very convenient! The modes element travel is a nice lighter stroller, but also giving everything you need look and convenience wise! It is easy to open and close which is very important and has a good size undercarriage

Best first travel set!
This review was collected as part of a promotion
I got the Graco Modes travel system as my first ever stroller and car seat as a first time parent and it was the best decision I've made. The car seat has an infant insert and fit our baby at the time so well! He is now 1.5 years old and is so comfortable in this carseat. We have tried other carseats and he loves this one! The stroller is also perfect in every way. It has a good storage compartment and the stroller can be taken of the base to have the carseat attach or even the bassinet which is
