B-Lively And B-Safe 35 Travel System

Web ID: 8285549Stroller won't push straight!
This stroller is awful. It does not push in a straight line. I cannot push it with one hand in the store because it will only go to the right or to the left. While the car seat and travel system works fine, the stroller is not great.

Great stroller and Car seat!
We bought this and it was very easy to put together. The car seat alone is a little heavy but it feels very safe and durable. We are very happy with the purchase. Love the grey color and the ease of putting the car seat into the stroller.

So in love !
Wow this travel system is excellent !! The combo was really easy and took me no time at all to put together. I took my newborn for a stroll down the park and was just so impressed with how easy the stroller was to maneuver. I am 5'2 and loved that the stroller was not to high or bulky for me, unlike previous travel systems tried. I really could fold and put the stroller in my trunk with just one hand. The storage space is also a really great feature. The overall design is awesome from the sleek look to the easy installation and many pockets included! The only reason I am rating this a 4 is because it lacks a cup holder, and that is huge for me and my coffee placement! But I still really love this travel system overall !! Thanks to the weeSpring Parent Panel for providing me with this Stroller & Car Seat.

I LOVE the one hand fold!!
I've had the Britax B-Lively Stroller and Car Seat Travel System in black for several weeks now and am very impressed. It is easy to assemble and looks very chic. I love a lot of things about this stroller but my favorite is the one hand fold. All you have to do is push a button on the frame then pull up on a fabric strap in the middle of the seat. The whole thing folds so easily and when it does you are already holding a strap to lift it into your car or carry it up stairs. It is truly a one handed maneuver. I have a 4 month old so I usually only have one hand available :) The travel system also includes the car seat and base. The base is easy to install. The car seat is nice but weighs 10 pounds which is a little heavier than our previous one. The straps can be adjusted many ways to suit your growing baby and it has the standard 5 point harness that nearly all car seats have these days. The car seat also has its own canopy that adjusts by pushing in or pulling out. When attached to the stroller you can completely cover your baby by extending both the car seat and stroller canopies. Other pros: there is an included storage pouch that hangs below the handle for your cell phone/keys The cargo basket is large and you can access from the back OR the foot rest area lifts up for front access. The stroller is lightweight and ideal for travel or taking in and out of your car. The canopy is very large with a peek-a-boo window The front wheel can lock to make it perform more like a jogger or unlock for more maneuverability Overall I think this travel system is really great, especially for the price. If you are expecting you would be set with this bundle. If I had to list any cons or features that it doesn't have it they would be: Cons: The brake: you put on the brake by pressing with your foot and to release you have to use your toe to flip it back up from below. I little tricky if you are wearing sandals. A second push to release would be more ideal. The toddler seat only faces forward (however with the car seat attached it is rear facing) The wheels are plastic as opposed to rubber The system cannot be converted to a double stroller ** I receive this product from the weeSpring Parent Panel

Great Travel System!
I love this set. Britax is known for their safety, so you can feel good about using this for your new little one. The seat was super easy to install into your car. I love that the stroller comes with it, so you don’t have to mess with any other adapters. You can easily transition your baby from the car seat to the stroller without waking them up! I love the one hand fold. I have a 2 year old and a newborn, so it is so necessary. I received this from weeSpring Parent Panel, but would definitely recommend it.

My Review for the B-Lively & B-Safe 35 Travel System
I received this stroller and car seat travel system as part of the WeeSpring Parent Panel. There were some really great features of both the stroller and the car seat that I really liked, and some that I didn't. The pros: It's a smaller, more lightweight compact travel system. Compared to other car seats/stroller combos, I really appreciated how easy and lightweight this system was. It was great for easy handling when pulling the stroller out of the car and unfolding it, and then folding it back up while holding a squirming infant! It was easy to attach the car seat onto the adapters and click it into the stroller for the times I wanted to leave my baby in her car seat. We took the whole travel system to Disneyland with us and I appreciated the compactness of the stroller, the easy maneuvering of the stroller through the airport and the crowds at Disney! My baby is tall and narrow, and I liked that the infant car seat was pretty spacious allowing for plenty of headroom for her to continue growing, but the channel for her body to fit into, was a bit more narrow, and therefore, more secure. She's a bit too big for the infant insert at this point but still tends to roll around in the seat without it. I liked how the B-Lively fit her really well and provided that extra secure padding around her body. We kept her in the car seat all through the airport, shuttle rides, and taxi's, and she stayed comfortable and content. The cons: The car seat is hard to re-thread. I had to adjust the straps and pull them through the back of the car seat and the padded fabric of the seat, and it ended up being very difficult to do on my own. I had to enlist my husband to help to get the shoulder straps to the proper height. The stroller basket is always my big thing- because I pack the house when going out! The stroller basket is very small. I could not fit our backpack style diaper bag into it, without cramming it in, and then there was no room for anything else. The one thing I did love was that the front footbed of the stroller pops open for easy front access to the basket. I appreciated that a lot! I think this is a great stroller for quick errands around town, but not for all day events where the baby is going to be in it for a long amount of time. I didn't feel that the seat was overly comfortable or padded, and I had a really hard time lowering the seat back once she got sleepy. Again I had to get my husband to help! With the smaller size, I did love the maneuverability of the stroller, and especially in crowded areas! It also has a larger canopy, so when it got to peak sunny time, I liked that it was great to pull down over her and covered her pretty well.

Compact & Stylish
My son is 6 months old & an easily transferrable travel system is so handy. It's one of those things I'm not sure you fully appreciate unless you don't have one because once you do, you'll never go back. The Britax B-Lively & B-Safe Stroller & Car Seat Travel System given to us as part of the WeeSpring parent panel in exchange for this review & was everything I hoped for in a travel system. It was convenient to detach from one & transfer to the other & back again. It was also chic & not at all bulky or overly heavy. I also really appreciated the single hand breakdown feature as I have a toddler who makes anything happening in the loading/unloading process a little laborious so this being simple was exactly what I needed! I found the carseat & base to be secure, although I know some found the space for rocking unsettling, for me it wasn't surprising & knowing that it was equally safe without the base (which is mostly for convenience) set my mind at ease. It also fit well in our station wagon, having a small footprint that made sitting beside it in the back easy. My absolute favorite feature was the pockets in the attachment. It took this stroller to the next level for me as most others I've seen or used involve ordering a special accessory to provide storage for anything other than your babe & maybe a diaper bag. The design clearly showed that it had moms like me in mind. I loved the look of the stroller as well. It almost had a modern European feel that is attractive & simple with clean lines & basic color schemes. Overall, it's a great product I would highly recommend to first time parents!

Great car seat, great stroller - great together!
I'm a second-time mom. The first time around, we used a car seat (similar to the B-Safe) with a dedicated frame stroller, and eventually transitioned to a city-friendly stroller with a similar design to the B-Lively. What was I thinking? I could have had just one stroller all along? The Britax travel system is easy to use, looks nice, and presents a much smoother stroller ride from birth than any frame stroller can. And bonus -- it takes up less space in your trunk. The carseat base was very easy to install and feels very sturdy. The car seat itself is nice and narrow and my newborn feels very snug and well-protected in it. The stroller opens and closes like a breeze. It is a very smooth ride, and has a large and sturdy canopy to protect from the sun. I love that you can reach items in the basket underneath from the front or back -- this was my big gripe with my first stroller. With the B-Lively, everything is easily accessible even when the baby is in the seat. There are only two things I'd change about this travel system: the seat is a little difficult to get in and out of both the car base and the stroller - you have to lift at just the right angle. It's just taken a few days to get used to it. And I wish the system came in more fun colors, though black goes with everything! I received this stroller system to review as a part of the weeSpring Parent Panel. This is my honest assessment.
