Safety 1st Acella LX Travel System 01-905

Date Published: 6/10/05

The Safety 1st Acella LX Travel System 01-905 is a solid performer. And, because this travel system includes both an infant car seat and a stroller we like equally well, we're confident this is one travel system that parents can use for several years.

Why? After a child outgrows the LATCH-equipped infant car seat with a five-point harness, the child will still be able to use the Acella stroller for quite some time. We particularly liked the adjustable canopies on both the car seat and the stroller. We found each canopy offered more coverage than most in this class, without blocking a baby's view.

Parents who often juggle a diaper bag, car keys, cell phone, and other items while trying to fold up a stroller will appreciate this model's one-hand folding mechanism we found easy to use. Plus, while pushing the stroller, there is a handy cell phone pocket, as well as a parent's tray with three drink holders (more places to put a beverage than most stroller trays offer) as well as a child's tray with a drink holder. The stroller's reclining seat had a variety of positions and was easy to adjust.

Plus, we found the infant car seat clipped easily--yet securely--into the stroller to use it as a complete travel system. The stroller was easy to navigate, whether using it in a department store or on a neighborhood street, and the stroller folded compactly to fit in a vehicle.

Overall, the Safety 1st Acella LX Travel System 01-905 offers an admirable performance at a reasonable price.
