Quality, Safety, and Style

We love this stroller. It has a clean aesthetic, opting for a simple design vs. many other travel systems that have bright or bold colors. One of the biggest things to us were, of course, safety which Maxi Cosi has a wonderful reputation of being safe for our little ones. The car seat has great padding, making it super comfortable for my youngest and is easy enough to get closed that my oldest can help with buckling. The base was easily installed in the car with just a couple clicks. It can be a little difficult getting the car seat on and off of the stroller and the adapters aren’t terribly easy to put in but after a few times, we got the hang of it. The difficulty in putting the car seat on and off the stroller is probably my biggest con of this system. One huge plus to the car seat is the shape of the handle which is much easier to grip and carry than our former travel systems and many we tried. The bassinet carrier seems a little less sturdy than other strollers we tested but still held up well with our child in it. Like most strollers, you can turn the seat to face you or the world, which is nice when you have a child that wants to see what’s going on. The canopy is great, it’s long and covers our baby so well, longer than many similar ones we tested. The cup holder is not sturdy, but that is on par with many travel systems so while not great, doesn’t differentiate this stroller from others. Overall, we are very happy with our Maxi Cosi Zelia Travel System. It fits our needs, includes our wants and matches our style.
