Best Travel Prams - Lightweight Strollers That Are Quick to Fold and Easy to Operate
Lightweight strollers must be quick to fold and easy to use. The best travel strollers have a compact fold which easily fits into overhead bins or smaller car boots and can also accommodate the infant car seat.
The BabyZen Yoyo2 is the pram that parents prefer to use for their children on the go due to its light design that's gate-check compatible and its compact fold. It also has a fantastic turn radius and a near-flat recline.
UPPAbaby G-Luxe
The UPPAbaby G-Luxe has a reputation as a sleek, feature-packed stroller that is intuitively designed. The stroller is extremely lightweight and folds down to a compact size to make it easy to move. It also has a convenient front wheel lock that keeps the stroller stable when in use and a fixed canopy that provides plenty of protection from the sun. It is easy to maneuver and has an ample storage basket.
Unlike the more expensive models of the UPPAbaby family The G-Luxe is affordable and comes with a number of extras, including an adult cup holder and rain cover. It also comes with a convenient brake system with one step, tall handles that make it easier for parents of all sizes to push, and a simple hand-level folding system that makes it easy to carry the stroller.
The UPPAbaby G-Luxe has an updated robust frame design, which is reminiscent of VISTA and CRUZ strollers as well as a fresh front-end design that has a single-wheeled design that increases mobility and has a larger canopy that is more spacious with an open SPF 50+ sunshade. It also comes with a huge storage basket and a back-of-seat pocket that is easy to access.
While the G-Luxe was a top performer in our noise tests, it was not top of the class in terms of performance and durability. It also had the least recline positions of our test models, and its rear-facing seats are not suitable for children under two years.
UPPAbaby G-Luxe was a close contender however, it did not take home the prize for the best umbrella stroller. It has many of those features that make the winners so popular with families. It weighs 16 pounds and has a small footprint when folded however it isn't as compact as the other models we tried. The Summer Infant 3D Lite is 2 pounds lighter than the G-Luxe, and folds to an even smaller size which makes it a great option for parents who want a lightweight travel stroller that is easy to maneuver.
BabyZen Yoyo2
The BabyZen Yoyo2 pram delivers on its promises. It's easy to use, light and elegant. It's designed to fit into urban life, and if you want to travel with it, it's ideal for that too. It's more expensive than some of the other options on this list but it's among the few that have a rain cover included.
Five Frenchmen created BabyZen to develop a stroller that was light and ideal for urban environments. The YOYO2 is their latest version. The YOYO2 is an original folding and unfolding device that is able to be folded and unfolded by using only one hand. It's also lightweight and compact, and it can even be carried on the shoulder. It's a great choice for babies and includes an infant bassinet. Once your baby is old enough to go, it can be transformed into a seat. You can also add a car seat to transform it into an entire travel system.
In terms of features in terms of features, the YOYO2 has great suspension that can take on tough terrain well and it's extremely easy to push around. It comes with a large storage basket and a big zip pocket behind the seat that is convenient for your phone, wallet or snacks. It can be connected with other YOYOs to accommodate larger families, and is compatible with all Babyzen accessories like a footmuff and a large shopping bag.
The only drawback of the YOYO2 is that it's not suitable for long walks in the park or on cobblestones. It is a smooth ride, but might not be as durable as a product made for more rocky terrain. However, if you intend to use it for short city walks or to do errands, it should serve you very well. The YOYO2 can easily fit in and out of my Honda Civic's boot and also fits in the footwell. It's also smaller than people's hand luggage, making it ideal to fly with a baby.
Summer Infant 3D Lite
The Summer Infant 3D Lite is a light, feature-rich and compact travel stroller stroller that folds down into a small package for easy transport and storage. It is the lightest stroller we have tested and one of the best budget alternatives available. It is not a good option for a stroller that you can use everyday since it doesn't have a bassinet or car seat compatibility, but it is great for trips.
It has a weight capacity of 50 pounds and is able to carry a toddler. The large seat lays almost flat to allow for napping and diaper changes and the 5-point harness adjusts to three height positions as your child grows. There is a huge storage basket as well as a cup holder for parents. The canopy features an open-air window made of fabric and an additional zippered pocket to store smaller items.
This stroller, just like the UPPAbaby G-Luxe steers well on smooth surfaces, but it gets stuck in cracks when we test it on rough terrain. The wheels are made of plastic, and have a higher frequency of vibration than the average for our test group. It has a shorter carrying strap than most of the strollers we tested, making it difficult to carry if you're carrying a heavy bag.
The 3Dlite unfolds and folds down in only six seconds. There are a few steps in the process: raising the lever on the back center to release the latch, pressing down the latch on the back right and then pushing the handles down. While these aren't the fastest or most efficient times for folding and unfolding a stroller they're still fairly quick. It also has relatively taller handle bars which could be a problem for shorter people.
The Summer Infant 3D Lite has one major disadvantage: it doesn't have a sunshade. It has a fairly large canopy but it doesn't provide any protection for your child if you're walking facing the sun. It is a retractable visor that offers some protection when fully open but doesn't completely cover the baby's head.
Zoe Traveler
The Zoe Traveler is the perfect stroller for those looking for lightweight, compact strollers. This stroller isn't only lightweight, but it also folds down to the size of a carry-on bag! This is an important feature in our books. Additionally, it comes with an awesome sun canopy and comes loaded with extras like a parent console, prams travel system backpack/storage bag, a single or double shoulder or cross-body straps, a kids' snack tray, weather cover and more!
Zoe was founded by a family, and prides itself on making products for parents that are as useful as possible as their children grow. This philosophy is evident in their line of strollers, which range of umbrellas ranging from a basic model to an expandable twin pushchairs double with reclined seats. The strollers offered by this company are some of the best available and provide the best value for money.
We tried the Zoe Traveler to see how it compares to competitors in terms of user-friendliness and functionality. We analyzed a variety of aspects, including fold and unfold as well as storage and maneuverability and safety. This stroller is very easy to fold and unfold. However, it takes a little effort with just one hand. It's not as smooth as some of its competitors. It's not the ideal choice for parents who are taller since the handlebars are only about 40 inches, which could be uncomfortable for long rides.
Storage is essential in a stroller, particularly when you're on the move. This factor accounts for 25 percent of the overall score. The Zoe Traveler scored a solid 7 out of 10 in this category. There's a small bin in the back of the seat that could be used to store a diaper bag as well as maybe a jacket or coat. It's unlikely to accommodate a full day of supplies.
The seats in the Zoe Traveler are comfortable but not the largest in our test group. They're averagely cushioned and have two reclining settings. One hand is required to adjust the recline, however two hands are required to get it back straight.
