i live in turkey but got this from us. its comfortable for my toddler (2,5 yrs) but it needs improvement. the sidekick handle cant be used on the double helix handlebar, which is a big problem because although my boy can theoretically hold on by the stroller handlebar, its metal and quite cold, and using it with mittens means that it is very slippery. we had to tie some tape onto the metal to insulate it for little hands. the second thing that needs improvement is the little metal hook that holds the sidekick in closed position. it is actually very difficult to hook and unhook it, especially with female hands and nails. i never manage to hook or unhook in one go although my husband seems to be able to. i wish the open-close system was easier because lets face it, you dont always have a nice clean flat surface to work on. the final thing is the fact that although the stroller closes with the sidekick, it makes it quite bulky. you should ideally take the sidekick off but this means that the practicality of it goes down the drain. apart from these three things, my toddler is getting quite a kick out of his sidekick :)

Not due until March, I love the texture & can't stop looking at it. Looking forward for all the compliments.

This car seat and stroller are awesome! It makes my life easy when i swivel the car seat to see baby when crying. Only bad thing its a little bit heavy and big, and makes baby sweat a little but its all fine its comfy!!

The car seat is heavy to carry and the padded handle is difficult to grip. As a dad, I don't want to carry the car seat on my forearm as shown in the manual. My wife can't even do it because it is too heavy. The car seat is so large, I have to move the driver seat up in a large SUV. (Can't move to other side because of second child.) My 6 month old is constantly soaked from sweat when in the car seat for more than a 20 minute ride, even with t-shirt and AC on in car. Also, doesn't fit nicely on top of a shopping cart so difficult to take to food store. The only advantage is the swivel so I can get my daughter out and leave the car seat in the car instead of carrying it anywhere. Not even close to worth the money, wish I could return whole system for my money back.

I received the car seat for my babyshower. I'm excited to use it upon arrival of my son.

it awesome and super strong we have had four little girls on it for a haul. Only thing is they don't tell you you need the two handled version for the arm bars to work but we are enjoying it without them just fine.

We took these for a spin this week and fell in love! I think I like them even more than the undercarriage basket. They are super easy to put on and take off--easy access to everything in your baskets and they just look so good on the stroller. I'm a huge fan and so glad we have them now! They also collapse nice and flat, so storing them is a breeze. Orbit does it again :)

Out of all the baby gear we own, and trust me we've basically purchased the entire baby store, the Orbit Baby Drive and Stroll Combo is hands down our favorite! We are constantly asked about the stroller from almost everyone who sees it. The orbiting base makes docking the car seat and stroller seat so much easier and more convenient. Our son has really loved the car seat from day one.;I think it's because he feels so comfy and cozy in it. The stroller base is ridiculously easy to open and close, and feels very sturdy and well made. The soft carry handle is awesome since my son is a big boy at 7 months weighing 22 pounds. I'm able to carry him in the car seat without a hard handle digging into my arm. I recommend this stroller/car seat system to all my friends that are expecting without hesitation, all of which have loved it too! This should definitely be your one splurge as it is worth every penny.

They really thought about parents with this car seat. Finally a car seat made for "humans" to carry. You can easily carry this in the crook of your arms and it's a breeze taking it in and out of the car. Love love love it. I have to set apart extra time when I go out because EVERYONE young and old wants to know about it. Most of all, my baby loves it not to mention my husband he is in love with this car seat.

We purchased one for our daughter 6 years ago and 3 grandchildren later it is still in great shape and being used daily!! My husband is an engineer and when he got through going over the stroller on the showroom floor.....we purchased it!! He knew being an active Mimi was what I would be......so to cause less damage to my spine. He thought that we needed it!!

My only regret is not buying this stroller sooner! When my daughter was born, we were using a simple stroller frame that holds an infant carseat since she was too small for a real stroller anyway and it was easier for us to keep her in her maxi cosi car seat.. When she got to be half a year old, we were using a maxi cosi stroller but my husband did not like our stroller at all. Truth be told we were actually shopping for a Bugaboo Cameleon 3 when we were showed this stroller at a baby event we went to. After comparing the two in person, buying the Orbit G3 was a no brainer!!! It had so many specs that the Cameleon 3 did not offer, or even come close to. There are SO many things that I love about this stroller, even aside from the obvious sleek design and 360 smart hub swivel base.. The fact that the stroller sits higher up than most strollers is something I love most.. My daughter feels closer to me opposed to closer to the ground, and in restaurants, its height and 360 swivel capabilities allow us to double the stroller as a high chair which has been so convenient for us, as we live life on the go and at times find ourselves at a farmers market or food stand that has no high chairs. Another aspect I absolutely love about this stroller is that it because of it's 360 smart hub base, my daughter can face me, face outwards to the world, or we can put her in zoo/restaurant mode where she can people watch and still see me or my husband. Comparing it to our other stroller that could only face out, it truly makes a difference for us. We love the convenience of being able to switch her back to facing us when she was over stimulated by her environment or facing her out again when she wanted to see what was going on (you know how curious kids are). Love the fact that the stroller seat has 3 recline options including sitting completely upright and laying completely flat back. The UV sunshade is also great as it it HUGE and extends pretty far. I don't think we've ever had the sun in a spot where the sunshade couldn't cover my daughter.. I feel like I'm going on and on but there are just SO many things worth mentioning about the stroller, so the last thing being that the handle bars are height adjustable, that its not a bar because it makes hanging our diaper bag easy-peasy. Can't recommend the stroller enough! Next baby, I'm purchasing the Orbit Infant Car Seat before baby even comes so we can start using this stroller sooner!

We've been using the G3 car seat for the past 7+ months and I am forever an Orbit fangirl because of it. If the ease of use didn't win me over, the "oohs" and "ahhs" we get when out and about would! The 360* turning ability of the car seat is by far the most stellar aspect of it. The base is also incredibly easy to install - both sets of grandparents have installed it in their cars without any issues at all. I know our little guy must think it's the most comfortable thing ever because before our G3, he'd fight and cry as soon as we'd put him in his car seat. Now he rides happy as a clam and loves it. The paparazzi shade is another great feature, too. For rain, snow, or way-too-sunny days, we don't have to fight with an extra contraption to cover him up. I love knowing it's built right in and safety tested WITH the carseat. That way we don't compromise the integrity of the seat with any third-party add ons. Thumbs way way way up. But if you get this car seat, you should totally get the G3 stroller base too - LIFE SAVER!

I bought an orbit baby g3 stroller and I had a problem with my stroller base, I wrote to orbit baby and I explained my problem to the customer service, they ask me to send a photo and a video, they saw the problem and then they send me a new stroller base. It was a great customer service.

This is probably the best baby item we own. We tell everyone about how much we love it and get so many questions about it from people who see him in it. I can't imagine having to crawl in the back seat everytime we were loading him up to get him buckled in. It's so awesome how you can load your baby facing you, make sure they're in right and happy before easily swiveling them around to rear facing. We also love the soft handle to carry him around with rather than a stiff plastic one digging into your arm. The fabric is soft, and breathable, which is great for Arizona weather. The ONLY problem we've had is the light colored fabric is getting a little dingy around his head where he sweats. I haven't tried washing it, so that may be easily solved. We'll see. The seat is so easy to drop into the orbit stroller. I strongly recommend this awesome car seat!

I bought this recently and love all the features on it but it Is very heavy hard to carry around without the stroller , and the stroller is very expensive !!!

I bought this item as I awaited my baby girl. I love love LOVE it! The paparazzi shield is a brilliant idea and creative way to not only block the sun but sticky fingers!

I love the teal sunshade. The color is so pretty and protects my son from the sun. Love the coverage.

Very roomy and the front and back drop down sides are handy.

This is a great, sturdy, and easy to use seat. We love the orbit feature, and how easy it is on our backs!

The only negative, I'd say is that we had to order the low-birth weight kit, as we had a premie. I'm a planner, and I'd bought the kit, just in case, but I can't imagine that many people do.

Here's the thing - most people do not plan to have their kids early, but when they do, they need that kit right away to be able to take their babies home, and i would be bit of a mad dash trying to figure that out when you've just had a baby! It's just a couple of pieces of foam, and for the price paid for the seat , I think it should just be included with the seat, for people to use If they need it. Also, the mechanics of the seat (belts and such) don't work as smoothly with the premie inserts, but it's manageable.

I'm in love with it and so is everyone when they see it. Highly recommend it.

The only drawback of the sidekick is that everywhere we go people stop and ask us where we got it. I feel like we should get paid to advertise it or something-ha! My 4 and 5 year old love taking turns on it. Having the sidekick has made life with 3 a little more manageable.

We bought this bag to replace the smaller bag that cane with the G2 stroller. It is alot bigger but its too hard to take in and out. Need to redesign and make it easier just like the old style.

As a new parent, I did a lot of research on different car seats! I must say I am glad I made this choice! The swivel technique makes life so much easier. The only thing I dislike about it.... Would be the cushion that goes with the bottom buckle is not attached. So everytime I take my baby out the seat, the cushion comes off and you can risk losing it/dropping it with ur baby if your not paying attention!

I absolutely love this infant car seat. I got it because of the rotating base and that alone made the choice worth it. The base is so easy to remove and install and the seat snaps on quickly and easily. The transition from car to stroller is smooth and easy to make travel stressless for me and baby. On top of all of that, it is the best looking system on the market!

I have been using this stroller and car seat for the past 6 months. I just transferred to the toddler car seat and stroller seat. I am so beyond happy that I went Orbit Baby. The system is so user friendly, and having a bad back, their "rotating" docking and stroller system is fantastic. I would recommend this product to EVERYONE!!!!!!

We purchased this for our 3rd child and man do I wish I knew about this when we had our first two children(2008, 2011).. For starters, this was my 3rd c-section and the Orbit greatly helped. It was so easy putting this in and out of the car-minimal pain there (unlike the other seats out there..). The Paparazzi shield is awesome, way better than the "blanket over car seat" trick. The infant seat is deep that our baby is so secure and comfortable in it. Most importantly-the base- the infant car seat literally does not move at all with this base. I remember when we would be driving with our other 2 children, we would take a look in the back seat and you would see the infant carrier moving when you took turns..so scary. This literally DOES NOT MOVE, it is so safe and convenient. The only thing I do not like about this is the fact that you can't wash the Paparazzi shield-it's white- and dirty toddler hands and white don't go too well... so that is literally the only thing I would change.

I bought these carseats for my twins, best purchase ever! Very easy to adjust as baby grows, easy to clean, and has awesome features!!!

i bought orbit baby half year ago and i am extramally satisfied. when my freids saw my stroller they bought orbit baby as well.

I don't even know where to start about this car seat! It is AMAZING! First of all, so nice to be able to turn the baby to the side! Easy access! Just turn and get them right out of put them right in! The cover is easy to take off and clean, (no more trying to figure out how to unstrap it and put it all back together) just throw it right in the wash! The stroller combo is also amazing as you just transfer from the base to the stroller, turns nicely, and the wheels don't go all crazy constantly! To fold it down all you do is TWIST THE BAR! So incredibly easy!!! This car seat is the one you need, for sure! Can't want to upgrade to the toddler seat when my baby is old enough! Worth the $!

my 3 year old loves it while his baby sister is in the car seat. stopped several times by parents asking me where I got it. knocked off a star because it made the system bulky and heavy when folding the stroller away.

i love the stroller in every way it's so easy to pull out and to put it away. Let's not forget about all the compliments I get while at the store. The down side is the car seat is so heavy I have a 6 month old ugh I run out of breath carrying him in it. Also my son always drops his bottle, so the fabric gets stains. After I wash it., I can still see the stains. It's hard to wash and it also has the shade head to toe which is also hard to clean.

I love this sun shade! We live in Southern California so being able to protect our baby from harmful UV Rays is very important to us. I love how much of the stroller this shade covers. I also like that you can fold half of it back for when you only need a little protection. Great purchase!

My husband bought me this stroller/car seat for our daughter. She is now 14 months old and still fits in it comfortably. She is still only 17 lbs so I think that might have something to do with it. The stroller folds easily and I love how quickly everything locks in and it is very stylish, I am always getting compliments. My only complaints are 1. It is a little heavy but if you carry it with the strap on your fore arm it helps and makes it easier. 2. It is pretty big, if you have a smaller car, it definately won't fit in the back seat, im so thankful i have an suv. All in all, I am definately happy with this product.

I purchased this carseat in ruby for my second baby. I read the great reviews and I was excited. My son is now four months and I still love the look, color and safety but...it is so heavy. I didn't realize how heavy this thing would be and with my 15 lb boy it is even more heavy. This is a great product but if you are tall and are expecting a big baby, just know this seat is heavy. Also, the little metal flaps on the sides stab your leg while your are carrying the seat.

Been using it for about a month. Great seat and the twins seem to like it. My only problem is that it doesn't fit very well on the G2 extension that we have for a second seat. It fits on the base, just doesn't fit well with the sun shade in place under the handle. Other than that it's awesome.

These are pretty much an essential addition the the stroller. I love how they easily open and fold down compact to the side of the stroller. It gives a ton of extra space to hold things. My kids can also easily keep their drinks or snacks in there and get them out as theyre riding on their side kicks. I was afraid that they would make the stroller too wide, but i can still easily fit through all doors and aisle ways when shopping. A couple of cons about the bags: - all your stuff you put in there is pretty much in the open so keep an eye on things. I'm used to stuffing stuff under the stroller which hides things pretty well. Just an extra precaution - folding up the stroller can be a little tricky with the bags and the side kicks as there can be interference. Just need to manipulate the position a bit. Overall i would highly recommend these panniers if you have an orbit stroller.

These are the best!! I have three kids and my older two lovehaving their own sidekick to ride on. We get compliments everywhere we go saying how cool the boards are. It really takes the stroller to the next level and i can take it everywhere since it will haul all 3 of my kids around. The stroller is still easy to maneuver with the two sidekicks on it. The handles provided are secure and easy to install. The boards easily move out of the way when youre not using them. They do make the stroller a lot bigger when it is folded so it will take up more space in your trunk. Completely detaching them from the stroller will help though. If you have more than one kid, this is essential. Your kids will love it and you'll kinda feel awesome whe people keep goving you compliments.
