how would you use this stroller for a newborn / small infant? it says minimum weight is 5lbs.

If I had a 5 lb baby, he would be in a wrap or a sling, not a stroller:)! More work to push the stroller than to just carry the kid!

I wouldn't use this for a newborn. You can lay the back down all the way and buckle the baby in but it is better if they can hold their head up.

I personally wouldn't use this stroller until the newborn or infant had pretty good head control. I started using this when my baby was about 5 months and around 17 lbs. But he is a bigger baby!

I bought this stroller for my son as he turned 1 year old. I would not recommend it for a newborn, as it doesn't really have much in terms of support. I had used his car-seat with a snap and go up until then, but he is big enough to sit, and needs to be able to see where we are going. I still use the snap and go when shopping, as it is convenient. I would've probably used the "Contours Lite Stroller" at 6-8 mos. if I had had it.

Hello, I love the stroller and highly recomend it. I suggest that for an infant use the adapters to place the infant car seat (just like any travel system) and once the baby is like 6 months you will find the stroller very secured to carry him.

Have not used for an infant but specsheet says that it can hold an infant starting at 4lbs.

It's bigger than the Britax stroller so smaller babies might not fit as snugly, especially at the bottom where the infants feet are located. I also purchased a Peg Perego car seat and a high chair and are very impressed with the build quality, but I would recommend using this stroller for babies closer to one year old or older.

It can be used for babies as small as five pounds. However, I would NOT suggest buying this item. I have two of these seats and my brother has two of these seats. They had a part recalled almost a year ago now and neither of us have received the replacement piece yet! I have called numerous times and spoke to many people and they cannot tell me anything other than they are very behind in getting these parts made. I have never had a problem with Graco before, but if one of their baby seats are recalled and they cannot get you the part you need in a timely fashion, I would it purchase from them. I know I will NOT be buying from them in the future. It can be used for babies as small as five pounds. However, I would NOT suggest buying this item.

Hello Kristopher, I am not sure about the weight limit but I had my 4 and 2 year old in it with no problem! I returned stroller because the seating seemed too rigid. Kids had no complaints though. Great riding stroller though and love how "all" the tires are actual bike tires. :0)-

This stroller is about the same size as for a small child. 4.2 pounds is not very big but you can put a small blanket in there for extra bedding and to make the compartment a bit cozy.

I have this carrier. I did not use this particular one for my baby as a newborn. I had a smaller one I used for him. It is geared towards smaller babies. I used this carrier as he got older, around 6 months.

Thank you for your interest in the Burst stroller. The stroller is for use for children up to 50 pounds. A separate bassinet seat is not included. The image on the detail page shows the stroller seat in the recline position.

Yes, it is suitable for a newborn. The stroller reclines nearly flat. We took my son for a walk in it when he was six days old. We did use a JJ Cole Infant Body Pillow in the stroller to give him some extra cushioning and to help the harness fit a bit better.

I have been using this stroller for my daughter since she was 10 months. She is now 2 years and 3 months old and still works great for us. I think answer by D. Monroe is probably the most helpful for max weight being 40 lbs, but if you were trying to figure out how early you could put a little one in this stroller, well for me 10 months was about right.

72lbs of weight...that's what i call a workout! The stroller can handle up to 100lbs of weight, but be sure to set the shocks to position 2 (51-100lbs)!!! As a warning the shocks reset to position 1 (up to 50lbs) every time the stroller is folded. The only problem I see is if you have to maneuver a lot. The fixed front wheel could be a pain if you need to make lots of turns. Otherwise...enjoy the push!

I bought this for my daughter in law. She said the child needs to be one yr. old before using it. It should be stated in the stroller info.

My daughter is about 17lb at 5 months old and we still use it with her every day. Hope this helps!

The description lists this item as 14lbs. I've never found it to be too heavy, but I guess you have to consider what else (including a toddler) you might be hauling. That being said we've loved that this feels really sturdy and that the handles are taller than most 'umbrella' type strollers (I'm 5'10" and my husband is 6'4"). Hope that helps.

I believe you have to get an infant car seat and an adaptor for this stroller.. I haven't check the manual but probably has a minimum weight to put a baby without an infant car seat..

I love this stroller. I think it is rated at 35 or 40 lbs. Used it for a litter of 7 with mom and she is 10 lbs. Now using it for mom, dad and one puppy with a total weight approximately 28 lbs. Works just fine. I had ordered the 4 wheel but then ordered the three wheel. Much easier to wheel on grass etc.
