and we’ve had quite a few of them.
I recently purchased this stroller and the Graco Metrolite for a trip to Disney World. I chose the Metrolite for my son and the Vie4 for my daughter. I would have given it one star, but I gave it two for the pink fabric.
This stroller does not fold compactly and neatly. It is very large while folded, mainly because the tray (that cannot be easily detached) sticks out from the stroller and takes up a lot of room in the storage area of the vehicle.
The worst part about this stroller is how the seat is slanted forward. My daughter spent an entire week at Disney World being held in her stroller only by the 3-point harness straps. It was very uncomfortable for her and there was no way we could fix it.
I wish we had bought two Metrolites. Those are awesome strollers!
I’d pass on the Vie4, unless you HAVE to have the girly fabric and your child will only be in it for short periods of time. Oh, and you drive an extra large SUV so there’s room for the stroller AND other items in the back.

This is my second stroller for my petite 10 month old daughter. She and I both love it. I was easy to assemble and all of the features are more than I expected. I purchased this stroller to take on vacation and it worked well. It fit nicely in the trunk of our Nissan Altima and left plenty of room for the cooler and luggage. She naps in it and it doubled as a feeding chair on vacation. The brown is easy to keep clean while the pink gives it the femanine look I wanted. I have not had the squeaky wheel problem, yet, but I did use some WD-40 on the axle as recomended in the instruction manual. I would recommend this stroller to anyone who wants a full size versatile light weight stoller for their daughter.

Loved the convenience and ease of opening and closing. Also think it is very mobile and sturdy. Especially loved to find it will “stand’ on its own when folded up. This is such a nice feature when your hands are already full and it doesn’t slide down while your moving it.

This stroller is awesome… the only reason why I did not give it five stars is because it does not easily fold with one hand. In fact, I have not yet been able to fold or unfold it using only one hand… but that doesn’t matter too much, it is roomy, rides very smoothly, is lighter than previous big graco strollers we’ve had, and the multi position recline is much better than strollers that only have one or two set recline positions. It works great with 3 month old as well as 3.5 year old. The adjustable handle is an added plus too. Overall great stroller!!

I bought this stroller 2 month ago. I am absolutely content with the purchase. It is very easy to assemble. The framework is not only sturdy but also stylish. It fits my Graco babysit perfectly. The pushing and folding is almost effortless. The only drawback in my case is its not so much compactness. It barely fits my Honda Accord trunk.
