Product Description
evenflo Aura Elite Travel SystemThe Aura Elite Travel System is the perfect for mom and baby. It was designed with input from moms to make it easy to use and with features moms want. The system includes the Aura Stroller and Embrace Infant Car Seat. The Aura Stroller is a durable one hand fold stroller with features mom helped inspire. The stroller features evenflo's patented One Hand Steer for busy moms who have their hands full. Also the parent console features a built in, removable wipes dispenser to help mom clean up any messes that may come her way. The console also has two cup holders and storage for cell phones, wallets and more. The large storage basket comes with a cargo netting to help hold all mom's outing needs. There is a five point restraint for baby which may be converted to use as a three point restraint depending on mom's preference. The seat back reclines for babys comfort and features plush quilted side panels to cradle baby. The canopy has an eclipse feature to help block out the sun from most any angle. The Embrace Infant Car Seat features an easy adjust stay in car base with level indicator, five point harness, infant head insert & body pillow. The seat is designed to fit securely to the Aura Elite Stroller to allow convenience for mom in moving baby from car to stroller. The patented Z-Shaped handle allows absolutely the most comfortable ergonomically correct carry position for moms. The easy access A-Lok adjuster creates quick and easy harness adjustments to insure proper fit for baby. The seat is rated for newborns from 5 lbs. to 22lbs. rear facing and includes EPS energy absorbing foam.
We bought this for our first child on recommendation by someone for the nifty middle 'pistol' handle and cupholders. Our attraction was the cute animal print (evenflo aura elite 'oh so big', not this green job shown), cupholders, color and transverse childseat handle. After 9 months I've come to realize this thing is a beast by any measure. Bulky, heavy, and huge, this system is a space hog in every respect. It does turn on a dime and roll smoothly but at the same time requires a 747 ground crew to coordinate through any doorway or store entrance. I drive an SUV and this thing takes up half the trunk, where as the seat takes up most of the back seat area. The transverse handle on the child's seat is a great idea but the weight makes me look like a bricklayers helper ferrying a load of bricks up a skyscraper as I walk bent to one side trying to balance the enormous weight. The latches work great and easily lock the seat in the base or stroller but by the time you get the seat near you just want to drop it in place out of exhaustion. Getting the seat out of the car is always a bizarre, difficult maneuver- again, due to the weight. Another issue is the seat doesn't synch with shopping carts at all. That's a real pain. I never use the pistol grip and am miffed that it was recommended as a selling point. Aside from the cupholders I do have to give it credit for such a large storage space underneath but I would gladly trade that for a smaller, lighter stroller.
No baby seat is perfect and every parent has to decide which features appeal most. In my opinion light and compact win out over parent friendly features (e.g. cupholders, large storage space underneath, shock absorbers). Light and compact used to be a problem (I've always feared the umbrella strollers) but the newer umbrellas, while pricier, are also now very sturdy. If I could redo everything I probably would have bought a Combi travel system even with the complaints I've read about the car seat/base. As my baby is nearing 1 year and outgrowing the infant seat I'm currently looking to replace the stroller with the Combi Cosmo. I eagerly anticipate the difference in size, weight and portability. After the Combi's I'd consider the McClarens and Chicco's.
where do i begin. the car seat seat belts dont stay tight. they are easier to loosen than it is to tighten. once my son got to around 10-15 pounds the handle started to feel like it couldnt handle his weight. the stroller is HELL to get open and to close. you have to hold the release button and shake it and kick it and bang it to get it to finally pop open. its not an upright standing, you cant lean it on anything with out it scratching things as it falls over. sometimes the wheel locks up. its a pain to get through a doorway anywhere, you will look like an idiot knocking into things b/c the stroller is so wide. and the tray for the baby pops off way to easily and its sharp when it does come off. ive seen reviews that the backrest will break and the baby with fling back and possibly get whiplash. STAY AWAY FROM THIS HORRIBLE DEATH TRAP!!!!
