Graco IPO

Evenflo X Sport

The Evenflo X Sport Stroller has a bi-fold frame, storage basket, and a fabric console with two cup holders and a concealable storage area. The seat includes mesh for better air circulation. The stroller has a removable, adjustable canopy and is recommended for children up to 40 pounds (18.1kg).

Graco IPO

The IPO Stroller is a compact toddler stroller with European styling. It allows one-hand folding and has a carry handle. The recommended child weight is 50lbs (22.6kg). The stroller comes with a reclining seat, a canopy with peek-a-boo window and storage basket. The child is secure with a combination 3-point or 5-point harness.

Accessories

The Evenflo X Sport has ample room in the good sized underneath basket. Still, for some users it was too small and they found it difficult to get things in and out of it. The cup holders and zipper pouch are very good as long as you don't try to put large drink cups in the cup holders. The sunshade is good value.
The Graco IPO is equipped with a small basket underneath the seat for storing small items. The basket is generally considered at a good size, with only a few users complaining that it is too small. The stroller has a canopy (sunshade) with a peek-a-boo window but is not equipped with cup holders.

Adult Comfort

The handles on this stroller are not adjustable, and as a result the stroller is not very comfortable for persons over 5'3 (160cm). Taller persons usually kick the back wheels while pushing the stroller. This stroller rides very smoothly and has great steering which makes it able to turn on a dime. In some cases the cup holder may tip out, and the stroller may flip if bags are hung on the handles when no child sits inside.
The Graco IPO is light and easy to manoeuver, with good one-hand folding action and small space requirements when folded. It is usually more comfortable for adults over 5'7 (170cm), and shorter users commented that it may not be easy to smaller persons to push the stroller or load it into a car. The stroller is generally perceived as sturdy and comfortable, and easy to handle. It is also not likely to tip when hanging bags on its handles.

Child age and weight

Evenflo suggests that the stroller holds children up to 40lbs (18.1kg).
Graco recommends the IPO stroller for children up to 50lb (18kg). In some cases children up to five years of age may sit in the stroller comfortably, with the stroller not losing control or maneuverability. This stroller is usually comfortable for big or tall children.

Low Cost

The Evenflo X Sport is usually cheap.
The Graco IPO is usually not expensive.

Easy Folding and Carrying

The Evenflo X Sport is very easy to fold and unfold, but not that easy to do it single-handedly. It doesn't take up much space when folded.
The Graco IPO is lightweight and easy to fold or open up. It also folds to a very small size and doesn't take up much space in the car when folded. The stroller offers true one

Security and Comfort

Children are usually comfortable in the Evenflo X Sport, although for some the backing is too soft, and they may sink when they fall asleep. This is truer for younger children. Older children are reported to love this stroller even though the seat does not recline. The harness is 3 point and not 5, which is considered less safe. The canopy is adjustable and the sun is therefore never in the children's face.
The Graco IPO's seat reclines up to 60 degrees which is considered very comfortable for children. Most children have no trouble falling asleep in the stroller - which is good. The stroller's harness can be used as 3 or 5-point. This allows for more security when used with babies, or more comfort for older children. The Graco is usually considered safe and comfortable for relatively bigger children and the seat's back support is considered good. In rare cases the seat may drop to a 45 degrees position by a toddler's motion. This isn't good but is not very likely to happen. The seat sides are not padded for comfort and this can pose a problem for some children, especially when sleeping.

Lightweight

The Evenflo X Sport weighs 9.6lbs (4.35kg)
The Graco IPO weighs 17.53lb (7.95kg). Some users believe this to be too heavy, especially when required to hold a child in one hand and the stroller in the other.

Not satisfied...

I bought this for my 4 years old son; it is good for carrying stuff but can't sleep properly as head base pushes forward and always his head falls forward while he sleeps....

Great Stroller

(Score 4/5)

I needed a light weight, easy to store stroller for my toddler for trips to the mall or just for out and about and this stroller is perfect. I have a deluxe stroller that I use for long day trips or when I need more storage but it takes up my whole trunk and is very heavy. This Evenflo stroller is very easy to open and close, more sturdy then the standard umbrella stroller and takes up barely any room in my car. I can even carry it one handed. My only complaint is that sometimes I kick the back wheels when I'm pushing and I'm only 5'6. My husband can't push it at all, but they do have an option (I think it's only $10 more) where you can get longer handles so I highly recommend that and then it would be the perfect stroller. All and all I am very satisfied and would suggest this to anyone looking for an umbrella stroller. You can't beat it for the price either.

it was ok.......but a 5 point harness is much

(Score 2/5)

i received this as an xmas present for my daughter but in grey, im anxious to open it and use it as i know evenflo (for me) has always made great products. i asked for this gift because i have an aura select and the size wasnt always easy to manuvre with.i used it for 6 months but my 1 year ols is on the larger side and it was hard to get overside walk etc with out having to lift the stroller which was a strain. i hate the 3 point harness because ofter when coming and going up on sidewalks my daughter always sprung foward.............a 5 point harness would of been better. i invested in the first years jet stroller (retro red) instead and the bigger wheels made it much easier, the handles were also much taller and the width was way better as my daughter was packed in tightly in the evenflo. if the handles and width were taller and if it had the 5 point harness i would of chosen this any day buut sad to say i prefer the first years jet stroller anyday.


buy the first years jet stroller instead.

It was a mistake buying this throller

(Score 1/5)

After reading many reviews I bough the Evenflo convenience stroller for a week long trip I was doing in Miami with my 1.5year old son. We arrived at the hotel and the stroller was there which was great. First time out we had to put the stroller in the trunk of our rental PT Cruiser, it would not fit!!!!! We had some bags in the trunk so we had to place the stroller horizontally and it would not fit. The way this stroller folds makes it a very long package to store. Our second problem with the stroller is the seating position its too upright, and it is not adjustable!!! I could not bear the seeing my sons head wobbling from side to side when he fell asleep.
Besides the design problems above the stroller is on the heavy side, and the built is not great. I would have returned it if I could, but since I had used it I did not feel it was right to return it. Next time I will go to a store to check out a stroller before buying one through the WEB. My advise to a stroller buyer is buy one that has adjustable backrest, your son will sleep safer and better!

Love this stroller

(Score 5/5)

I was really nervous about getting this stroller i thought i wasn't going to recline enough for my 6 month old who likes taking naps still while we are out. But this stroller is perfect, we had purchased a travel system its just a waste of money if i would've known how much i hated it i could have saved money and just got a car seat n this stroller. My son would have defiantly fit in it when he was born, plus it reclines so perfectly its even perfect for a new born all the was up to a toddler. Plus GREAT price!!

LOVED this stroller!

(Score 5/5)

I typed "loved" because my 13 month old 26 pound 31 inch son has just outgrown it. I cannot see a 50 pound child fitting in this, even though it will supposedly hold one. Other than that, we love love loved it for over a year. Used it pretty much every single day, heavily. In the past month or so, it's gotten a little creaky and the treads on the tires are completely worn down. My only complaints are that the sun shade is a bit skimpy, the storage basket is a bit hard to get to, and the handles are not adjustable. That being said, my son has always loved this stroller so it must be pretty comfy. It is very lightweight and easy to maneuver. Easy to fold and unfold one-handed. Parent organizer pockets are handy, a good size for mail. The handles, fortunately, are a good height for me (I'm 5'6") and for my husband (5'11"), which we "test drove" several strollers for when I was pregnant. The handles are comfy too. It's fairly easy to maneuver through tight spaces.

Love this Stroller!

(Score 5/5)

I have to say, I really love this stroller. I bought mine 3 years ago. The stroller has seen a lot of duty and been used for 2 kids. My 4 year old still rides in it from time to time. She is 42 inches tall and still fits. I love the one handed fold and the handle for carrying. When my son rides in it, my daughter holds the handle on the side which is great because I always know where she is! The stroller is ideal for airport trips and travels. It is light weight and easy to transport. I am buying a second one because sadly on my last trip the airline broke it.

Awesome stroller!

(Score 4/5)

Purchased this stroller for my 2 1/2 yr old who is 39" tall and is 37 lbs. This is a beautiful stroller. Easy to put together (actually my 16 yr old put it together for me). However, the stroller does not accommodate a taller toddler. Her head was about 5" above the back rest and she looked "stuffed" into the stroller. Like I said I love the stroller itself. It is sturdy, has a nice size basket underneath, and handles are perfect height. I just wish it were a little wider and taller! I would even toss the canopy aside and add more inches to the back rest! Hope Graco is listening!

Great stroller

(Score 5/5)

We bought this stroller instead of an umbrella stroller as we're both tall. It's been great. We've taken it all over the world - it folds up very small and is very handy. Our 2.5 year old still fits in it fine. We've had no trouble with the quality. The only thing missing is a parent console for drinks.
