Best Lightweight Single Stroller This is the lightest and compact travel stroller available. Its sleek design makes it easy to fold into a neat rectangular shape and the wheels spin more easily than some other designs. The stroller also has an enormous storage area underneath the seat as well as an adjustable shoulder strap that makes it easier to carry around when you're not pushing it. However, the canopy adjustment can cause a lot of noise, which can wake a sleepy toddler. 1. Contours Itsy The Contours Itsy is a compact stroller that has a variety of features for its size. The basket in the back of the seat is spring loaded, meaning that you can lower it to store bags for diapers or backpacks in and it will pop up to protect the contents. It also has a child's accessory holder as well as an adjustable seat pad that reclines. This is more than you would find on a typical lightweight stroller. It also has a canopy that can be closed and opened to get the sun protection level you need. The handlebars are adjustable in height for a comfortable fit in four different positions. However, we weren't impressed by the ride quality on rough terrain. We felt the suspension and wheels did not perform a great job of absorbing bumps and shocks. It's a great stroller for travel because it arrives in a box that is fully assembled, and requires only few steps to get it set to use. The seat can be pushed back and forward to adjust the recline. It's a bit flat. It's a cinch to fold and unfold thanks to two buttons on the frame. It can also be put into a convenient carrying bag for when it's not being used. In fact, it's one of the smallest strollers we tested, and it fulfills the requirements of most airlines for gate-checking or cabin storage on airplanes. Be sure to make sure to check with your airline prior to when you travel because rules may differ.

It has all of the features parents look for in a stroller. It comes with all-terrain tires and front suspension for an easy ride. It's also very light, weighing less than 12 pounds. It can be folded with one hand and stands up on its own. It has two cup holders on each tray to accommodate parents and children. Its build quality, however it is a bit too low and it did not perform well in our maneuverability tests. It also features a flexible frame that makes pushing it across rough terrain feel like lifting a heavy weight. This might be fine when you use the stroller on smooth streets, but for the majority people, it's going to not be comfortable. The Cloud Plus features a three-tiered extended canopy with an open window that provides additional sun protection. The seat is multi-position and can hold children up to 50 pounds. It also has a five-point safety restraint. This is a great choice for older toddlers that have outgrown their infant car seats. It's small and folds up in a single step. compact single stroller can be collapsed by pressing the button. It also features a convenient, foot-activated break that is easy to install and release. The handle is lower than many strollers we've tested, and some parents might find it uncomfortable to use for extended periods. It does have the ability to lock the handle to keep it in place when open however. This is an excellent feature if you plan to use the stroller on uneven or muddy terrain. 3. Munchkin Sparrow The Munchkin Sparrow stroller is the perfect travel stroller for parents who are always on the move. The compact stroller can be folded up and down with ease and fits in the overhead compartments on planes or trunks at amusement parks (no need to worry about parking charges). It also comes with an easy-zip bag for storage that is easy to carry. It can be used with the infant car adapter right from birth and provides excellent sun protection thanks to its canopy. The only drawback is that some parents find the style to be utilitarian and cheap. The BabyZen Yoyo+ is a bit more expensive than the other single strollers with lightweights however, it was created specifically for luxe urban and travel. It's among the easiest strollers that fold (and comes with a handy carry case) and offers plenty of storage space, including cups holder. The seat is comfortable for both the child and the adult and it reclines to a nearly flat position. This is the only stroller that can be used for infants using the car seat adapter. The handlebar isn't adjustable and could be an issue for some parents who are taller. The UPPAbaby Minu V2 isn't the lightest stroller on our list, but it comes with many wonderful features that help kids travel more easily. The large seat reclines to a flat position, and comes with extra padding so that those naps on the plane last longer. The extendable canopy has a lot of sun-shade and the tray that is on the back has plenty of storage. It also has an adjustable footrest that can double as a handle when folded. This footrest is prone to damage from baggage handlers. 4. Uppababy Minu V2 Uppababy's Minu V2 is a premium stroller that doesn't skimp on design or quality. Its compact design makes it easy to navigate narrow streets and tight spaces and its robust construction lets it handle rough terrain without compromising the safety of your child. The spring-action suspension at the rear and front ensures a more comfortable ride, and its sturdy materials ensure that it will stand up to the wear and tear of everyday use. Plus it can be extended to accommodate additional accessories like a bassinet or infant car seat. In our tests during our testing, the Minu was easy to fold and maneuver even with a child in the hand. Its squat nearly square fold that folds into thirds, is one of the most simple folds we've seen and allows it to easily be tucked away in overhead compartments of planes or in public transportation. It also comes with a color-coded single-action brake that is easy to use. The seat comes with an adjustable recline in multiple positions and a single-handed adjustable leg rest, so it's easy to find the ideal position for your child. The UPF 50+ canopy is lowered quite a bit to protect Cora's face from sun. There is also a medium-sized mesh peek-aboo window that closes magnetically and adheres to the canopy rather than using noisy Velcro. At just under 15 pounds At just under 15 pounds, the Minu is easy to carry using its built-in handle and shoulder strap. It can also be stowed in the trunk of your vehicle, and it comes with a storage bag as well as access to the TravelSafe program offered by Uppababy that provides two years of manufacturer's warranty and covers replacements for any items damaged in the course of air travel. 5. Joovy Aire Joovy is an established brand that makes several strollers. This stroller is light and ideal for parents who are looking for a sturdy stroller that can take their children. It is simple to move, has plenty of storage space, and is not difficult to fold. It's not the best choice if you want a car seat-compatible model, or a double stroller, however. It doesn't accept any infant car seats, and your infants must be able to sit up on their own before they can use the stroller starting from day one. This stroller is loaded with features and comes at a reasonable price. It scored higher in our maneuverability test than other strollers with similar specifications. It's also a great option for smooth surfaces. It has a huge parent tray, a canopy and plenty of storage. The handlebar is a bit smaller than average and the front wheel suspension is a bit stiffer however it's comfortable for adults. If you have twins or two kids with different ages, you might find that a side-by-side stroller is the best way to move them around. Our top pick is the Joovy Twin Groove. It has a lot of features and has a tiny footprint, so it can fit in places where other side-byside strollers can't. It has a big canopy that has a peek-aboo view, and tons of storage. It's a bit heavier than other side-bysides however it has a decent capacity for weight and can be used by children weighing up to 50lbs. You can also add an infant bassinet to the front of the stroller to accommodate infants. If you want an even more luxurious version of this stroller, the Caboose RS Sit and Stand Stroller is a worthy alternative. It comes with the same great features and can be fitted out with a bassinet so you can bring your baby home in style after leaving the hospital.
