Product Description
Tripleplay 5-in-1 Sit N Stroll Travel becomes convenient with the Sit N Stroll from Tripleplay. It is FAA approved and is the perfect choice when searching for baby travel systems. Flying with a child is very difficult. With a stroller travel system like the Sit N Stroll there is no reason to haul a stroller and car seat through the airport. Use the stroller function and wheel the children the airport and into the automobile. The travel system then converts to an easy to use car seat by using the car's belts. Once the destination has been reached, take out the retractable wheels on the baby travel system and roll the child to its destination. The Tripleplay 5 in 1 is lightweight and simple making it a great choice. The top feature on the Sit N Stroll from Tripleplay is its convertibility. The wheels retract into what acts as a car seat base for easy storage. When the time comes to go from car seat to stroller, no real effort needs to be exerted. The stroller travel system is easy to use for all parents. The travel system also features a height adjustable handle. The 5-In-1 Sit N Stroll becomes one of the most perfect travel systems for any parent.

Fantastic for Traveling!
 
Review Date: May 26, 2007
Reviewer: Eve,
We purchased this stroller because we traveled a lot and needed something compact and easy for traveling. After DD turned 7 months old we haven't looked back and have used this everyday. She is now 19 months old, weighs 22 pounds, and it holds up fairly well. I've traveled alone with her and this stroller has made it a whole lot easier! I would definitely purchase this again we couldn't be more satisfied!

Here are my pros and cons:
1.Makes traveling easier.
2.Durable the fabric is easy to clean
3.Well padded
4.Is easy to operate once you get the hang of opening and closing it.
5.When you close it the wheels are covered by the plastic so if they are dirty it will not mess your car's seats.

Cons:
1.Can be a bit heavy once your child is over 20 lbs
2.The wheels are small but are durable enough..difficult to tread in gravel and doesn't have much friction.
3.The foam handles tend to slip off
4.There isn't a sunshade (you would have to purchase this separately from the vendor)
5.The small compartment in the back is not big enough to house a diaper bag
6.No cup holder.

My wife and I travel a lot. This seat has seen London, Paris, and Buenos Aires - all with our little dude riding like a king.

Fly to London, stroll to and on the Tube, use as a booster seat at a restaurant in Piccadilly, stroll around South Kensington. To go home, just pull up the wheels to become a carseat and slide the seat into the taxi. Pull the standard seatbelt over the front and lock down.

This carseat/stroller has taken a beating and it is still going. Highly recommended!

Pros:
Versatility
Don't have to chech the stroller at the gate
Resilient
Looks very comfy

Cons:
A bit hard to pull wheels up/down for my wife
Barely squeezes down the aisle of the plane (watch fingers)

Impressive engineering. It earned its value during the first trip.



Ugly as sin

Reviewer: K. Smith, the west
This car seat is ugly, there is no doubt about it. We bought it as a second car seat/airplane stroller so that our nanny could take our daughter to the park in her own car without needing a car seat installed full time. It takes a little getting used to, especially since your kid will look really strapped down (pinned at the shoulders) Hannibal Lector style by the straps that attach to the car. The straps are necessary for the proper functioning of the seat but our daughter looks a little funny strapped down like that. But guess what, she doesn't care one bit. She likes to roll around in the seat when it is a stroller but it does look like a La-Z-Boy on wheels. It is one of the ONLY seats acceptable for the airlines (special writing in red on the seat). We'll be giving it a try over the x-mas holiday.

This product is great! My daughter is 22 months & about 26 lbs & my husband was able to go from car seat to stroller position while she was sitting in it. It saved a lot of time at the airport! this is the only way to travel with a baby.
Can't Live Without It

(I own the beige/blue version.)

I have traveled with my young son at least once a month for the past couple of years (most of the time w/o my spouse), and I can honestly say that I could not have managed without the Sit-n-Stroll! I am able to easily maneuver this stroller with one hand while pulling my wheeled luggage along with the other and hauling a humongous diaper bag full of kid essentials, an emergency change of clothes, & a laptop on my back (and that's just to get to the check-in counter!).

We've also found it handy to use this as the 2nd car seat in our truck since there's limited space to store a regular stroller should we need one. Additionally, the seat cover is easily removable and washable in a washing machine (something we learned when a stomach virus hit our family during one of our trips).

As others pointed out, there is a bit of a learning curve to using the S-n-S, but you get the hang of it quickly enough once you've used it a few times. I have absolutely no problems converting it from car seat to stroller and back, and I have hereditary RA in my wrists! It's also true that the mesh storage bag is tiny and that it has no cup holders, but none of that matters in the long run b/c whatever drawbacks this device has are readily eclipsed by its complete usefulness.

Bottom line: if you travel once a year or less, you can make do without it unless you just enjoy spending money. If you have travel often with your child, you NEED this stroller. It may be ugly, clunky, bumpy, and heavy, but you will not regret it!
A must-have for frequent travelers
 
Review Date: September 5, 2008
Reviewer: A. Bowman,
I just completed a two-month, cross-country trip to 5 states with 12 airline flights with my son as we visited family and friends. He is now 6 months old. When we started, he was 4 months old and I can tell you if it wasn't for the sit-n-stroll, we would not have made it. Most of the flights were by myself so it was essential that I be able to get him around safely and easily. This was the right equipment for the job. On flights where he was not in his own seat, I gate checked this with a red Gate Check bag (I also highly recommend this item) and it traveled well.

I practiced getting the wheels retracted and extended at home and I'm glad I did. As other people have mentioned, the wheels have to be in the air to be retracted and extended. I'm not very strong and my arms aren't very long so at first it was a challenge. It took a little getting used to. But, after a few tries, I was able to do it with my son strapped in. That is huge when you are trying to get through security with minimal hassle. Since I was by myself, I didn't have someone to hand him off to. I retracted the wheels, pulled him out and put the sit-n-stroll on the x-ray conveyor. It was very easy. On the other side, I would reverse the process. On more than one occasion, I had other moms watching me and asking me where I got such a fabulous stroller. I also had moms with huge stroller/carseat combos on the jetway marvel at how I could so easiy travel by myself with an infant. I think I could have sold 50 of these on the trip.

The handle is very easy to steer with one hand which is a huge plus when traveling and hauling suitcases through airports.

I did not have any problems with this facing rear in any of the rental cars I had. It fit securely and I am confident would have withstood any crash. Fortunately we didn't have one so I didn't actually test that out. It is a little bit of a hassle to have to install the sit-n-stroll into the car each time. The way the straps are, you can't lift the baby out without taking the whole seat out. But, that inconvenience is minor compared to hauling a normal carseat around.

The retractable handle is wonderful because when you wheel it in tight places (restaurants, elevators, airplanes) you can lower it but still push the stroller.

I used the sit-n-stroll in many different restaurants as a booster chair.

It was so nice to have one item that served so many useful functions. I highly recommend this product if you plan to travel with a baby or toddler.
