Evenflo Pivot NXT Travel System vs Baby Trend Passport Seasons Travel System

The Evenflo Pivot NXT is the better all-round travel system for most families. It is lighter (21.9 lb stroller, 8.6 lb car seat), folds to stand on its own, and its car seat rotates 180 degrees for easier loading. The Baby Trend Passport Seasons is the pick for rough ground and hot weather: 8-inch all-terrain wheels, a roll-up mesh seat back, and a car seat with an ergonomic lift handle and a bubble-level base. Owners rate the Baby Trend slightly higher, but the Evenflo's modular 6-mode design and GREENGUARD Gold certification give it the edge on versatility and indoor air quality.

• Choose the Evenflo Pivot NXT if you want a lighter, easier-to-lift system with a rotating car seat, a lay-flat pramette for newborns, and a self-standing fold for daily errands and car trips.
• Choose the Baby Trend Passport Seasons if you walk trails, parks or uneven pavement and want all-terrain wheels, a ventilated mesh seat back for summer, and a car seat designed to reduce back strain.
