Baby Products Reviews of Baby Trend Single Snap N' Go Stroller
Customer Review: Horrible experience!
Summary: 1 Stars
Originally, we were very happy with this stroller. It's lightweight, easy to use, and very convenient. Like another poster, our rear right wheel fell off for no known reason. At first, we wre pleased with the customer service, as it seemed we would be getting a replacement part right away. This was 5 weeks ago.
We are STILL waiting for a replacement part for the rear right wheel. My wife has made several phone calls to Baby Trend's customer service number. Each time she calls, she is told something different. First call: "It will be shipped right away." Second call: "Our warehouse just moved, so it took longer than we thought. It will ship on Friday or Monday." Third call (to make sure it really shipped): "It will go out Fed Ex on Wednesday (1 1/2 weeks later) with other shipments that have been delayed due to the move." Fourth call: "I see that it has shipped, but I can't determine whether it went out USPS or Fed Ex. I will check with my supervisor and call you back." No call back. Fifth call: "It shipped, and it went out USPS. The parts are too small to go out Fed Ex." What?!!! My wife left a message on the supervisor's voice mail...two days later, still no call back. Sixth call, trying to reach the supervisor, but reached a service rep instead, who checked the account: "I see that the parts went out Fed Ex. Here is the tracking number..." Another message left with supervisor.
We are completely frustrated by the incompetence of the customer service department. Trying to reach anyone has been a challenge. There has been a wait time of about 10 minutes each time my wife tries to call. In addition to the phone calls, my wife has used the Baby Trend website to email questions and concerns. As of this evening there has been no reply. One was sent a few days ago, the other a couple of weeks ago. When she asked the service rep about the email, she was told there is typically a response within 48 hours.
Although this product was fantastic before the cheap-o plastic wheel broke, we STRONGLY CAUTION anyone before purchasing this product. If anything goes wrong with it, expect to not have it in use for OVER A MONTH!!!
Customer Review: Loved The Double had to get the Single
Summary: 5 Stars
When we found out we were having triplets, we like all other multiple parents bought a stroller to accommodate all the babies. The stroller is so large that we can not even fit it into a mini van. We have to purchase a large SUV or Full size van to go anywhere.
We bought the Latch Lock carriers from baby trend and we just love them. When we saw the stroller that went along with them. We decided to order the Double Snap N Go.
The stroller comes all put together, you just need to snap on the wheels. Then comes the fun part. The stroller is made for many different brands of carriers. You find the carrier you are using in the instruction manual and then you remove bars or rearrange them to fit your carrier. It is very simple and all the parts are well labeled.
The carriers just snap on to the top, just like when you snap them into the base that is in the car. There is a strap that goes over the lower half of the carrier to prevent it from rocking or coming off the stroller. It is great because you do not have to unsnap your baby from the car seat and them snap them into the stroller. No need to transfer toys and blankets from car seat to stroller. What a time saver.
It is very light weight and easy to set up. I pull it out of the trunk and just snap and lock it into place. I then just snap the carriers in place and we are off. It takes up the same amount of room that a normal single travel system would take up.
For all you shoppers out there. I took the stroller into a women's clothing store and was able to easily navigate the store. The stroller handles very well. The front wheels are adjustable. You can set them for straight ahead or let them rotate.
Because we have 3 babies, we easily become a tourist attraction. The stroller handles so well that I was able to move swiftly and accurately through spectators and display racks.
We love the Double Snap N Go so much that we have asked for the Single Snap N Go for our Baby Shower.
Customer Review: Great alternative to bulky travel systems!
Summary: 5 Stars
This stroller is great! We bought the Baby Trend Flex-Loc car seat for our newborn son due to the fact that we have two year old twins already and with their car seats (even the Sunshine Radian seats, the narrowest convertible infant/toddler car seats on the market) we could not get the Graco car seat and base that we already own to fit. Since the Baby Trend is clearly not compatible with the stroller that was part of our Graco travel system we needed to buy another stroller and really did not want to spend a ton of money since we already have the Graco stroller and will likely buy a lightweight stroller once the baby is old enough.
We decided to buy the Baby Trend snap-and-go stroller and I have to say it's one of the best baby gear decisions we've made! This stroller is so lightweight, portable, and convenient. I can easily lift it into the back of my SUV unlike our Graco stroller. It comes nearly fully assembled so the remaining assembly (attaching the wheels, fitting the parent console on, and attaching the back part of the stroller bag onto the support frame) is quick and easy. The stroller opens and folds very easily and locks with a single red latch that is easy to operate with one hand. I have not had any issues with the wheels or tipping as other reviewers stated. I think the stroller is actually very stable. The stroller maneuvers much more smoothly than I expected as well. The stroller is compatible with several models of car seats, but be sure to check before you buy if you already have your car seat or you can buy the stroller and then find a car seat that is compatible using the owner's guide included with the stroller.
Customer Review: Love/Hate Relationship...
Summary: 4 Stars
LOVE: the convenience of this stroller in that it is so easy to transport baby from car to stroller for several little errands. I can't imagine having to lug a huge stroller in and out for as much as we run around. Very lightweight and easily collapsable.
HATE: the rear right wheel recently broke off for no apparent reason - just normal parking lot/store travel, nothing rough. I called customer service and they're sending out replacement parts with no hassle.
The other con is that it's hard to line up the carseat base with the markings on the stroller and if it's put on wrong it takes a bit of a struggle to release the carseat off the base later. Also, the storage cargo area is not easily accessible - not enough clearance to actually stick a diaper bag in there easily unless the car seat is taken off. So I just hang my diaper bag over the handle bar and it works fine. The cup holders are better used for keys and burpclothes, as a drink is easily jumbled and will surely spill without a lid. Also, my hands would sometimes smell like rubber from the rubber grips on the handlebar.
All in all, I wouldn't give this stroller up since it gets mucho mileage, but is not free from imperfections. Luckily we got it on a great 3 dollar clearance closeout price, so were not out a bunch of money if it breaks. I don't think I'd pay full retail for it again. Probably would shop around or try a different brand.
Customer Review: We use this stroller nearly constantly
Summary: 5 Stars
My wife and I have been quite pleased with our BabyTrend Snap-and-Go stroller and FlexLoc Infant Car Seat. We have used these items since our daughter came home from the hospital over four months ago, so this review is based on quite a bit of use.
We concur with others who have noted the portability and foldability of the stroller. We have found the stroller/carseat combo to be quite easy to travel with on both car and plane trips. The car seat, while a bit challenging to get out of a car (owing to the difficulty of moving the bar from the "ride" position to the "carry" position -- it's too stiff), has proved comfortable and reliable. In fact, our daughter now prefers being in her car seat to being in any other contraption we own--crib, bouncer, and swing. She actually sleeps better in this car seat than in her crib!
Unexpectedly, we use the stroller/carseat combo extensively in our home. It allows us to transport our daughter easily from room to room, to rock her to sleep (a gentle back and forth push works best), and to allow her to be part of the action wherever we are (it puts her closer to our level).
All in all, I'd highly recommend this stroller with the BabyTrend Flex Loc car seat. Since we use the stroller so much in the house, we are planning to buy a second unit so that we don't have to clean the wheels off every time we come in the house with it!
