Despite its size it has an excellent ride, fantastic sun canopy, and a multi-position recline.With a price of less than $100 it's a great value. It has a simple compact fold and carry strap, which makes it easy to put it over your shoulder or carry with you on public transport.1. LightweightWhen it comes to strollers for travel lightweight and easy to fold are essential. The top models we tested could be folded with one hand, and sometimes two, and they can fit into overhead compartments for luggage. They are also lightweight and easy to roll, making them easy to maneuver into tight spaces. Some models have a telescoping handle to accommodate parents of different heights. Find a light, easy to transport stroller for your family, regardless of whether you're planning an excursion with a newborn or a long-haul trip with a toddler.To determine the top travel strollers, we evaluated nine models that met our minimum weight and size requirements. Each model was tested on country roads, city sidewalks and at the airport terminal for mobility, ease of folding and carrying, and overall comfort for your child.Our top picks include the Babyzen YoYo2 ($320) It has the simplest fold of the strollers we tested and can fit into overhead bins on airplanes. The seat reclines to a flat position and is car seat-compatible which means it's suitable for babies up to age 2. The car also has an undercarriage that is deep, a bag-hook on the handle, and UPF50+ canopy to provide plenty of protection for your child.The Cybex Orfeo (320) is another option. It has the ability to fold in concertina that can be operated with one hand and is very light. The padded five-point harness the crotch strap, and the Reversible seats keep your child safe with a huge undercarriage basket as well as a reversible seat ensure that there is space for their belongings. It's also compatible with the brand's infant car seat which makes it an ideal option for families that start at birth.The Coya TRVL ($320) is another one-handed, one-step fold with car seat compatibility and a far-reaching canopy. It's more expensive than other models in this class however, it comes with additional features such as a large cupholder for the parent and a handlebar that can be adjusted to accommodate parents of all heights and a comfortable carry strap. The simplicity of the model does not mean it's as durable, as relative to other models in this class.2. Folding is simpleWhen you're on the go, your stroller has to be easy to open and close. You don't want a stroller that is difficult to close when you're carrying groceries or children in your arms. The best travel strollers fold up easily and compactly, even with one hand. Many come with a comfortable carrying strap that fits comfortably over your shoulder.In our tests, the Libelle stroller scored highly for its effortless fold and compactness. It also has other attractive features. It is smooth on all surfaces, and has an ample canopy that provides enough coverage. Additionally, it's extremely light and self-standing when folded, making it easy to store.For parents who want to roll right up to the gate and then put their stroller into an overhead bin, we suggest looking for a model that promises to fit into. The Munchkin Sparrow, for example is a great fit in the smallest folding space and comes with a convenient travel cover, but it has no reclining seat and a narrow cargo area that can hold a small tote bag or diaper bag (no backpacks).The Babyzen Yoyo 2 is another option. pushchairs folds concertina style, but it offers a reversible seat for riding back-toback or face-toface. The handle is hidden behind the seat, however our editor didn't love the way it folded.The newest type of stroller that is a travel model is tri-fold, which folds into thirds and offers the perfect combination of compactness and features. The UPPAbaby Minu for instance, has a reversible seat, an unstructured rear storage pouch, and a locking clasp to keep it folded. It's a little bigger than the umbrella models of the brand however it folds more compactly than G-Luxe and G-Link counterparts. It also comes with a carry strap with padding that can be worn over your shoulder.3. Easy to storeThe best travel strollers can fold down to a small size that is easy to store. They can easily be tucked away in the trunk of a car, or in the overhead bin of an airplane. Some come with a strap you can use to carry the stroller over your shoulder to ensure that your hands don't get exhausted. They are also lighter than normal strollers. This makes them easy to lift and carry around for a quick stroll in the neighborhood or at the airport.This stroller performed exceptionally well on our durability tests and was easy to maneuver over any type of surface. From smooth hardwoods to shag flooring, this stroller is a great choice. However some of our test subjects noted that it's a little flimsy and the handlebar doesn't have any padding to help keep your hands in a comfortable position. Another thing to take into consideration is the size of the storage basket is: It's slightly smaller than the average, and some parents have found it difficult to fit a large diaper bag into it.We recommend that you call your airline ahead to inquire about their specific rules regarding strollers. They can differ. This is especially important in case you intend to gate-check your stroller. You can then use it on the plane, and then navigate the airport without the stroller.If you're looking for a simple stroller that's light and folds down to an extremely compact size The Contours Itsy is a great choice. The Contours Itsy comes almost completely assembled and all you have to do is attach the bumper bar. It comes with cups holder for the parent and an additional back pocket. However it doesn't come with an oversized basket. This could limit your ability pack essentials for a long journey.If you're a frequent traveler we suggest a more robust stroller with better features and can hold more cargo. The UPPAbaby Mini for example has many of its G-Luxe or G-Link siblings' features, but is smaller and folds more quickly. It's also a bit more durable than an umbrella stroller and comes with a comfortable carrying strap that takes some of the weight off your shoulders.4. ConfortableStrollers are often used for long periods of time when traveling, so it is essential to be comfortable. Seats that have plenty of padding and a recline system that can be adjusted at different angles are the best. Also, consider whether the canopy extends to give protection from the sun, and if it has mesh windows to allow airflow. If you need to carry items with you take a look at a model that has an organizer for parents and a cup holder as well as a large storage basket under the seat. If you're looking for a stroller that is suitable for older children, look up the age range and determine whether your child will be comfortable in the stroller without a car seat for infants.How a stroller rolls is also vital. It should be able to move effortlessly over a variety of surfaces, from smooth hardwoods and shag carpets to cobblestones, and gravel. It must be able of handling steps, curbs and other obstacles easily. If your plans for travel include lots of walking, opt for a light stroller to avoid leg and back soreness.A great stroller for travel should also be simple to use. It should be simple to assemble and snap back together when put in the proper position. It should fold flat enough to fit in the boot of your car, or the overhead compartments of a plane. It should also remain upright when folded, so that you can carry it around by one hand and hold your child in the other.For parents looking for a high-quality lightweight stroller for their child the Joie Tourist is a great option. It has several recline positions so that your child can nap in comfort. The extendable canopy offers plenty of sun protection with UPF protection. It also comes with a rain cover as well as a coffee cup holder and a footmuff. Charlotte is thrilled that it's suitable for babies up to four years and doesn't require an additional car seat adapter.
