Travel Stroller Reviews

Joolz Aer2

14.3 lb · 20.9 x 17.3 x 9.2 in · $549

The Aer2 lies fully flat from birth, folds with one hand, weighs 14.3 lb and carries a 17.6 lb basket. No other stroller here combines all four.

Bugaboo Butterfly 2 Plus

16 lb · 21.8 x 17.6 x 9.6 in · $579

The Butterfly 2 Plus adds a lay-flat recline and a built-in newborn foot cover to the Butterfly, so the seat works from day one. It has the longest car seat list here.

Cybex Libelle

13.7 lb · 18.9 x 12.6 x 7.8 in · $350

The Libelle is the only stroller here that fits inside a 22 x 14 x 9 in carry-on on the maker’s own numbers. You give up basket space and newborn use for that.

Stokke YOYO5

15.4 lb · 20.5 x 17.7 x 8.7 in · $549

The YOYO5 is the newest version of the stroller that made cabin-size folds famous. It folds with the seat still on, and its 8.7 in thickness is the slimmest of the full-featured picks.

Nuna TRVL

13.6 lb · 24 x 20.25 x 11 in · $350

The TRVL folds itself at the press of a button and takes a Nuna PIPA infant seat with no adapters. Its fold is bigger than the others, though, and Nuna itself suggests checking it at the gate.

UPPAbaby Minu V3

16.7 lb · 21.5 x 18 x 10 in · $500

The Minu V3 pairs a seat that lies flat with a 20 lb basket and a 3-year warranty, which makes it a travel stroller you can also use every day. The cost is weight: 16.7 lb.

Mountain Buggy nano urban

13 lb · 21 x 20 x 12 in · $390

The nano urban costs $389.99 yet lies flat from birth and takes infant car seats with a built-in belt instead of adapters. It also ships with two sets of wheels.

gb Pockit+ All-City

13.2 lb · 18.9 x 13 x 7.5 in · $330

The Pockit+ All-City folds smaller than anything else here on retailer numbers, around 18.9 x 13 x 7.5 in. Stock is thin, though, and gb’s US site was down when we checked.

Silver Cross Jet 5

15.87 lb · 24.5 x 14.5 x 10 in · $550

The Jet 5 lies flat from birth and folds onto two wheels so you can pull it like a suitcase. It is long when folded, though, and its basket is small.

Colugo Compact Stroller+

16.18 lb · 22 x 17.6 x 10.6 in · $299

The Compact Stroller+ comes with a rain cover, cup holder and carry bag for $299 and folds one-handed. It starts at 4 months and takes no infant car seat.

Zoe Traveler

13 lb · 22 x 19 x 10 in · $279

At 13 lb and $279 the Traveler is light and cheap, but Consumer Reports rated it Don’t Buy in 2026 after it tipped back on a slope. Zoe disputes the result.

Kolcraft Cloud Plus

11 lb · 34 x 18 x 12 in · $90

The Cloud Plus is an $89.99 umbrella-style stroller with trays for parent and child. It folds long and steers poorly, so it suits a trip, not daily use.

Summer by Ingenuity 3Dlite

14 lb · 40 x 14 x 12 in · $110

The 3Dlite is a $109.99 aluminum umbrella stroller with a 4-position recline and carry strap. Owners complain about its small canopy.

Doona X

19.6 lb · 28.5 x 18 x 17.3 in · $850

The Doona X is an infant car seat with fold-out wheels. It is FAA approved, so the baby can ride in it on the plane, but it has no basket and the baby outgrows it at 30 lb.

Zoe Twin v3

25 lb · 30 x 27 x 11 in · $599

The Twin v3 is a 25 lb side-by-side with 60 lb seats and infant cocoons included. It costs $599, against $950 for the Nuna TRVL dubl.

Nuna TRVL dubl

25.2 lb · 30.5 x 27.75 x 19.75 in · $950

The TRVL dubl has a one-hand fold that stands on its own, suspension on all four wheels, and a PIPA seat that clicks on with no adapter. It is also $950.

Joovy Kooper X2

28 lb · 30.3 x 26 x 12.8 in · $400

The Kooper X2 is a $399.99 side-by-side with two snack trays that stay on through the fold. At 28 lb and 30.3 in wide it is a gate-check stroller.
