When I was pregnant with our first baby we were fortunate enough to be gifted a fabulous stroller/car seat travel system. You know the kind that includes the infant seat, the stroller and the regular stroller seat as well. They’re great! They’re convenient when you’re hauling an infant everywhere and can just click the seat in to the stroller and go. And sure the fancy strollers are very comfy for your little one even when they’re out of the infant seat. But man those strollers are HEAVY. They’re big and bulky and take up a lot of space in your car. So when we were done with the infant portion, I decided we were ready for a more compact option. I didn’t want to totally give up comfort and go straight to an umbrella stroller but I definitely wanted something simpler, more compact and most importantly lighter.

I did a lot of research and there were some really good options but they either didn’t have great reviews or they were super expensive and I needed to find something more middle of the road. And then I found this one…

Favorite Features

• One Handed Folding- I was skeptical but its legit, I can both fold and unfold this entirely one handed.
• Adjustable seat incline- the back can be upright down to almost flat for a great nap on the go and moving it up and down is pretty simple too!
• Lightweight- seriously it is so easy to lift in and out of our SUV. It’s only 13.6 lbs but still feels very sturdy.
• Compact- it folds up great! Takes up much less space in our car and garages and can even fit in the overhead compartment of an airplane!
• Includes accessories- a rain cover, travel bag and cup holder all come with the stroller!
• Mesh Footwall- this unfolds from the footrest portion and can give a little extra protection when out and about.
• The “skateboard” attachment we had for our other stroller fits on this stroller as well for our toddler to ride on.
• Comes in two color options- a black or light grey.

Downsides

Obviously no stroller is going to be one hundred percent perfect. One downside to this stroller is the size of the storage compartment, it’s great for a few extra things but definitely holds quite a bit less than our larger, heavier duty stroller. The other downside is that it’s not as plush as our other stroller. It still seems pretty comfortable and both my kiddos seem to enjoy it but just in comparison it definitely lacks some of the coziness of our larger stroller. The weight limit listed on the stroller is 45lbs. This will give my kiddos a pretty long life with it because they’re petite but other kiddos may not get as much use out of it so it’s definitely worth taking note of that.

Final Thoughts

This stroller gets 4.5 stars on Amazon and that rings true for our family. I have said numerous times how much I love it to my husband when we’re unloading it at our weekend outing. We haven’t used it for major travel yet but I’m thrilled that we could bring it on the plane (reducing risk of damage) or still have plenty of room in the trunk for other things.

It is listed for $219.00 on Amazon. But also keep a close eye out for coupons because there is often a clickable $40 off coupon available making it less than $200 which is a great deal for such an awesome stroller!

This is listed as a travel stroller and it is definitely ideal for travel since it is so compact but we use it as our everyday stroller and feel like it meets our needs great with an 8 month old and 2.5 year old. I hope your family loves it as much as ours!
