Great travel system despite minor flaws
July 10, 2019
Upon receiving this travel system, I was blown away. I'm a petite mom, 5'0", and it is very hard to find baby products that are easy for me to use. Strollers and car seats are usually too big and heavy, and I never look forward to using them. The Zelia Max travel system has made me excited to get out and about again.
The car seat is attractive, very light and unlike previous car seats I have owned, this one is soft and my daughter looks so comfortable in it. It comes with a newborn insert which I wasn't able to use, and it also comes with shoulder strap pads I haven't been able to use yet due to the fact if they are in, I can't tighten the car seat correctly. The fabric on the car seat is amazing, especially the canopy. The canopy is breathable, and in hot weather it helps my daughter get a breeze, which helps her not overheat or get sweaty.
The stroller is what makes this travel system so great. It is space saving, has a HUGE basket on the bottom, it is light and easy to lift, (very important for petite people!) and it has an adjustable handle, which is great because I can switch it to a more comfortable height for both my husband and I. Space is important because we have a SUV crossover with limited amount of room, so the fact that we can have a cart worth of groceries and the stroller placed in back is a definite win. The bassinet feature is my favorite and so easy to use and install. The only downside while using the bassinet is that it is wobbly and not completely sturdy. I use the car seat attachment the most, because it works for my lifestyle better right now. However, it can be difficult to insert the car seat and remove the car seat, so be sure to get familiar with it before going out and about. The stroller doesn't have the greatest maneuverability and is hard to go over bumps and curbs, but it is great for sidewalks and grass.
Thank you weeSpring Parent Panel for providing me with this travel system to try and review!
