The Bravo is a practical full-size stroller built around Chicco's car seats. A Chicco infant car seat clicks straight onto the child tray, with no adapter, which turns it into a travel system. Remove the toddler seat and canopy and it becomes a lightweight car seat frame carrier, which is useful in the first months. Later the seat reclines to several positions and holds a child up to 50 lbs. Chicco places the fold handle under the seat pad, and the stroller folds with one hand and stands on its wheels without the handle touching the ground. Large treaded tires with all-wheel suspension handle uneven sidewalks, and the push handle has three heights. A parent tray with two cup holders and a covered pocket is included. Compared with the Graco Modes Nest, it lacks a reversible seat and a pramette mode, so a newborn rides in the car seat rather than lying flat.
