If you're traveling to work or for vacation, picking the right travel stroller can be the difference between a successful or unsuccessful trip. Be aware of the weight and age of your child, as well features such as a deep recline and ample storage, and weather protection. Choose a model you can fold and unfold easily with one hand. This is particularly important especially if you're handling a small child.

The egg2 was an excellent choice for us due to its compact fold, light weight and sturdy feel. It also features an adjustable reclining mechanism, a spacious basket underneath the seat, and a an excellent handbar that is padded. The only drawbacks are the stiff leg rest and a limited amount of storage space. The leg rest and basket can be used to carry a small bag however you'll need to remove the cushion on the seat to access it. The seat doesn't come with an ample pocket. This can be a problem when you're trying to juggle multiple bags and a squirmy child.

If you're looking for a more affordable single buggy-handle model, take a look at the Qbit+ All from GB City. It's akin to the Nuna Trvl with its one-hand folding feature and accessible leg rest. It doesn't have the same amount of undercarriage storage space as other models, and its canopy is smaller.

During our testing, we were impressed by the GB Qbit+ All City's smooth ride on most surfaces. It was a breeze to roll across shag carpets and sidewalks, and it performed well in our durability test. In addition, it offers numerous options for customization including a baby bassinet attachment and a rider board for siblings.

A good choice for parents who travel frequently, this lightweight stroller folds in half and fits in an overhead bin of trains or planes. It has a sleek design, with an open front pocket that can be used for a cell phone of the parent and a large back pocket for larger bags for weekender bags or totes. The padded seat is nicely shaped, and the buckling system uses magnetic buckles that are easy to use and quick to secure even with a toddler in tow. It's also one of one of the models we tested with brake foot, making it easier to stop if needed.

Design

If you're planning to use a stroller on the go, choose one that is able to be folded and carried around with other bags. Some of these strollers include straps or carrying cases that lets you carry them on your shoulder. These models are great for long days of exploring during vacation or navigating the narrow aisles of public transport.

When selecting a single-hand fold stroller, think about features such as the size of the basket as well as the depth of recline and how big you want the canopy. Also think about whether you need a tray for your child or an adjustable leg rest and how much weight the stroller can hold.

GH's top pick for a one-handed stroller is the Nuna Trvl. It's a light travel stroller that is easy to handle, comes with a a deep reclining seat and a large storage bag. It looks fantastic, is easy to maneuver and makes sharp turns.

The GB Qbit+ All City stroller is another great option for a lightweight and compact stroller. It's also simple to carry. It's akin to the Nuna Trvl however it's slightly less expensive, and comes with a few additional convenience features, such as an adjustable leg rest as well as a simpler reclining system that goes nearly all the way back.

Other notable strollers that are lightweight include the Cybex Orfeo (which earned a place on our top car seat travel systems list), the UPPAbaby Minu and the GB Pockit. The Cybex Orfeo is compatible with six car seat brands and features an easy-to-use, self-standing fold that can be folded with one hand. It's a bit heavier than other top models, but its front wheel can be able to absorb bumps better.

The UPPAbaby Miniu comes with many of the same functionality as the larger prams of the brand but it folds up more compactly and fits in the majority of overhead bins on airplanes. The seat padding is a good thickness and the recline system is simple to use. It also comes with a lovely unstructured rear storage compartment and a lock clasp that keeps the stroller folded while in transit.

Weight

This stroller folds into a compact, light-weight package that can be tucked away in overhead bins of airlines which makes it ideal for travel. It also comes with a large storage basket as well as child tray. There are some downsides, such as the limited recline (it can only be lowered to a very slightly inclined angle) and instructions that are in pictures instead of words. However it is a great choice for families seeking a lightweight, simple stroller.

The BabyZen YoYo2 is a popular stroller that's especially suited for those who travel. It's light (13.7 pounds) and has a compact, compact single stroller fold that makes it easy to squeeze into airplane aisles and overhead bins, and comes with decent features for the price. It's compatible with a variety of car seat brands, and is one of the lightest strollers you can buy.

However, it's not the most user-friendly. Its narrow base and limited undercarriage storage could make it less suitable for longer trips or errands. It's not the most smooth rider on all terrains and has a tendency to rock on bumps. The latest model has a more comfortable and well cushioned seats, but it's not as expensive.

In general, we recommend single person buggy-handed strollers with brakes that are simple to lock and a spacious undercarriage to store things. We also recommend a padded seat and harness for comfort, as well as an holder for cups that is suitable for parents and a footbrake that is easy to use.

Our top picks are based upon extensive testing conducted by Senior Editor Chris Abell and Commerce Updates editor Hillary Maglin. We test strollers in our New York City lab and on city streets. We also donate eight of the strollers we review to local families in need.

Its sleek design is simple to maneuver even on rough terrain. The front wheels were specifically designed for India’s bumpy roads and also have an insulated brake that is connected to it. The only issue is that the Cruz does not have straps for carrying, so it's not ideal for long walks.
