Full Review: 

The Chicco C5 Umbrella Stroller is a great buy for the money. Considerably cheaper than the Maclarens and the Inglesinas, this Chicco stroller is a great choice for a mid-priced umbrella stroller.
The C5 folds and unfolds very easily. Unlike the Maclaren, you do have to bend down to pull the handle to fold the stroller. The push handles (which are two separate handles) are taller than the average umbrella stroller, which makes this a dream for taller moms and dads. It eliminates the bending over you have to do to push some of the cheaper umbrella strollers if you are of average or taller height. The C5 is very easy to maneuver and is lightweight to carry. The stroller has a handy carry handle.

The seat reclines and is deep providing good leg support. The seat is wide so it's accommodating for bigger children. There is a great 5-point harness with padded straps. The straps will be a little loose on a very small baby since they don't tighten as much as they should. There is a handy pocket on the back of the canopy for your keys, cell phone, or snacks. The C5 comes with a detachable cup holder but we have found that since it's easily detachable it's also easy to lose.

A rain cover also comes with the stroller, which fits over almost the entire stroller and is a great protection in the rain for your child. The basket is rather large for an umbrella stroller but you could still only put a small diaper bag in it. The basket, like most umbrella strollers, is hard to access while the seat is totally reclined.

The canopy isn't very big so it's doesn't offer much sun protection and is not adjustable. The fabric isn't as plush as others on the market, but it's not bad either. Some additions we would like to see: a snack tray and permanent cup holder for mom, a larger, adjustable canopy and maybe a travel bag that the Chicco Caddy comes with for the C5.

Overall, the Chicco C5's good features outweigh the not-so-good features and make this a good choice if you want a reliable, mid-priced umbrella stroller.
