CONVENIENCE TOTAL GRADE: B
weight
positive reviewsA-
Depending on the model year, the Venezia stroller has grown lighter but is still a bit unwieldy at 17 pounds as about half of the parents can attest to. This stroller is simply not designed for easy lifting by small people or the elderly.
folding
positive reviewsB-
First off, most reviewers found the folding relatively easy with two hands, although it isn't easy for first-time folders. One mother reported that she has to reclose the harness before folding up the stroller, as the straps get in the way. The lower grade comes because a majority of parents found that the Venezia is just plain bulky when folded down, and won't fit in compact cars and don't even imagine you could get it in an overhead compartment on your next vacation.
cleaning
positive reviewsA+
With high-quality removable machine-washable fabric from the seat and the canopy, the Venezia stroller is a dream to keep clean.
storage options
positive reviewsB-
A roomy under seat basket that's tough to access: this is the consensus of nearly all of the owners of the Venezia. The newest model now features a cupholder for parents and a child's tray. Not that this is any consolation to those with older models.
