Pros: Light, simple, don't have to disturb baby when moving in or out of stroller
Cons: Only works for infant seats. No suspension. Cup holder too shallow
The Bottom Line: So convenient and light. It is perfect for folks on the go. Small enough to manuver in shops, sturdy enough for long walks.

| maggiperk's Full Review: Baby Trend Snap-N-Go LX Single 13100/13108 Standar... |
Back when I was pregnant, my husband and I went out looking for the best stroller possible.
We didn't want a big travel system. We wanted something that will easily fit in the trunk (with room to spare) will fit down the aisles of most stores, without blocking them and is light and inexpensive.
I had seen the Snap-n-Gos and thought they were clever, and after hearing rave reviews from people who owned them, I picked one up at the Toys-R-Us.
The frame is custom fit to your car seat and you must follow the directions exactly when putting it together. I did this and the Graco Snug-ride car seat fits perfectly and locks into place on the rear bar. The Snap-n-Go also has a belt that snaps over the car seat, for an extra bit of protection.
The only possible unsafe thing I have seen is if you hang anything heavier than your baby on the handle, it could flip the stroller, but the instructions clearly state this.
The frame is navy blue, and so are all the accessories. The handle is not adjustable, but it does have a nice thick foam coating that makes it comfortable to push.
Opening and closing can be done one handed and it weighs next to nothing, so getting it in and out of the trunk is super easy.
It has a good sized basket underneath and the handle has a cup holder, with room for 2 cups, but the holders aren't very deep, so taller cups and bottles can easily tip over.
The ride is pretty smooth. I take my daughter for walks over old cracked sidewalks and she does get jostled a bit, but the sidewalk is in poor shape. It's totally smooth in malls, on regular sidewalks and indoors.
The wheels are small, so there's no off-roading with this stroller, but it's really just perfect for my needs, which are shopping and walks on pavement.
I love that I don't have to take my baby out of her seat to switch to a stroller. If she's napping, I don't have to disturb her.
I am sad that she'll soon outgrow it and I'll have to switch to a front-facing stroller.
