Would this stroller be suitable for a 4 year old (38lbs) and a newborn with the car seat adaptor? thanks!

We have a 5 year old (40+) that regularly nudges one of the twins out and rides in it. We never used it with the car seat adapter since we had twins and a double snap and go for when they were tiny. But we found we took them out of the car seats and put them in the baby jogger by 7 months because they were too big to be comfy in car seats for long periods of time. I am certain that it can handle the weight if that is your concern. It is a great stroller.

Yes. I have a 4 year old who is 40 lbs and he rides along next to the baby in the car seat. There is plenty of room for both but the stroller still feels compact and is so easy to push. We really love this stroller. The other stroller we considered was the City Select. It's also nice b/c it can convert to be a single stroller when the older one's not riding. (Or you can get a glider board for them to stand on). Good luck!

My four year old still fits in it but I don't make her wear the seatbelt because it seems like its uncomfortable. She's old enough to know not to jump out of it and still fits in the seat.

Yes it would be perfect for a four year old. We bought it for our year and a half old daughter and she can push it at the lowest setting but our tall three year old son uses it all the time at the medium handle setting. The handle can get taller still. It's a nice sized stroller. Not like a cheap little umbrella one at all.

I bought this stroller when my baby was 4months old. He was supported and held in there well with the shoulder straps and seat recline. I didn't run with it as I read you shouldn't until the baby is 9months, but as for walking on off road terrain with some bumps, my son was totally supported and I felt beyond confident with the stroller. I would say if you are planning to walk with your newborn he/she would be fine.

Hello, and thank you for your question! This stroller is appropriate for children from newborn up to 50 lbs. Thank you!

I wouldn't use the stroller by itself with a newborn because the seat is not designed for a newborn (not enough support), and baby doesn't have the head/neck strength to sit up in it. However, we bought the carseat adapter so we can use it with our infant carseat, and it works great! Very easy to snap in and out. Just took my 1-week old for a walk in it this morning!

No, this car seat is for babies who are mostly outgrowing an infant car seat that fit with a stroller. It will however allow you baby to ride in the car from toddler 30 inch+/ 20lbs + through to age 7 or 8 as it will eventually become a booster seat.. so lots of years of use. My boy is 33 inches, 23 lbs and he's very happy in his seat. It's sturdy, and more wide than it is high, so I can see out the rear vision mirror ok. Anyway, hope this answers your question. You might want to ring Graco and verify with them directly about the Quick Connect system.

I'm not sure, I'd have to look up my stroller instructions, but my baby is 4 months old and weighs about 16-17lbs (I think or more) and he still uses the bassinet. His feet aren't too close to the edge. Even if I lift the bassinet to stroller position now his feet dont get cramned too much at the end. I like this because if it is windy or raining it doesn't get him all wet. The hood of the stroller would be nicer if it was a little bigger or had a middle position. There isn't any shocksystem, but it's a stroller and I'm not jogging or going over bumpy terrain with it. I love the stroller. But I can't see some people not.

No, it should be fine. My baby is small (18 months, 22 pounds) and we've been using it for the past few months. It's adjustable.

I think the instructions said not to use the seats until the baby is like 6 months old. However, because it reclines into an almost flat position I feel you can use it on a younger child. 1 month & 10 lbs. is probably a little small... But once they are like 4 months old it's probably okay as long as the straps can be adjusted tight enough to safely hold the baby in the stroller. For a 1 month old I'd recommend using the bassinet add on or buy the car seat adapter to use that on your stroller until your baby is a bit bigger. I hope this helps!

I would only use this for a newborn whIle in an infant car seat, which you would need to buy the car seat attachment for this stroller.

It might get small pretty quickly. If you older child always sits in the back it might last a bit longer but sometimes my youngest wanted to sit in the back and the front was too small for my oldest. At the time we had this stroller I had a 4 and 1 year old I now have a joovy too ultralight. That is working out for us kids are now 5.5 and 2.5.

Yes. My son just turned four and he fits in it very well. I love this stroller.

Yes, it should be fine. My 3.5 year old can still fit, though she is pretty tall for it now. Though if you have twins, maybe look into a true double stroller. Maybe they would fit better. Some of the PP double strollers are great.

I think the stroller is recommended for use for babies that can at least sit (have more head control). They make car seat adapters that can hold an infant car seat in the stroller. That is a great option for utilizing the stroller with newborns. I believe exact recommendations/specifications are on the website.

I agree with Samara G. The straps are not easy to adjust. The stroller is great otherwise. I would not recommend the Snap 4 if you need to use it regularly for children that are very different in size. For older children that don't need to have the straps pulled tight in order to sit comfortably/safely it would probably be fine.

Yes. it can. I started using this stroller when my baby was 3months old. I didn't find that he felt uncompatable on it at that time.

When the infant car seat is installed that seat is slightly reclined which prevent a toddler from fully sitting on the bench seat. That said, my 2yr old 36inches and 34 pounds can sit reasonably comfortably on the bench seat. He likes to alternate between standing and sitting so its fine for errands and short trips and walks. I would still highly recommend this stroller. For the price, the features are great, fairly lightweight, easy to maneover and works great as single when shopping.
