Review Summary This is the summary of consumer reviews for Graco Spree Travel System, Barcelona Bluegrass. The BoolPool rating for this product is Excellent, with 4.50 stars, and the price range is $170-$190.
The Graco Spree Travel System, Barcelona Bluegrass gives a secure and comfortable ride for any child, be it in the car or on a walk in the park. The convenient and well-made travel system combines a stroller and infant car seat with a base, that work great together. The car seat easily fits hand in glove on both the stay-in-the car base and the stroller.
Both the items come with a handy canopy to protect a baby from the sun, rain or even bright lights. The neutral patterns on this travel system make it suitable for both little boys and girls .Another cool feature is a netted window on the stroller that allows one to peek in to see their child.
The stroller also has an ample storage space basket at the bottom for your diaper bag, handbag, a book to read and, other odds and ends. This perambulator features a one-hand self-standing fold, and is highly appreciated by most reviewers. Now you can feel like Cassius Clay (Mohammed Ali), while holding your infant and opening the stroller at the same time!
But the stroller's performance is not very consistent. Many reviewers have noted that the stroller's folding function stops working efficiently after an average of six months. Another pet peeve is the position of the tightening straps at the back of the car seat and the stroller. Some find adjusting the straps hard to do. The travel system is a little bulky for some mom consumers. Also, the baby carrier can only hold babies up to 22lbs whereas others go up to 25-30lbs.
Overall, the Graco Spree Travel System can be an expensive but worthwhile buy, as it is a durable and user friendly product that comes with both stroller and car seat as a package.
