Its sleek design allows it to fold into a stylish rectangle shape and the wheels are much easier to turn than other models. 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. But the canopy adjuster can cause quite a bit of noise, which could wake a sleepy toddler. 1. Contours Itsy The Contours Itsy is a compact stroller that has a variety of features for its size.

Additionally, it has an excellent canopy that is able to open and close to give you the level of sun protection you require.

Kolcraft Cloud Plus This is a great option for those looking for a stroller that is light and easy to carry. It comes with all the features parents are looking for in a stroller. This includes all-terrain tires and front suspension to ensure a smooth ride. It is also extremely lightweight with a weight of less than 12 pounds. It folds with one hand and stands up on its own. It has two cup holders on each tray to accommodate the parent and child. Its design isn't high, and it did not perform well in our test of maneuverability. It also features a flexible frame that makes pushing it over rough terrain feel like lifting a large weight. This is fine for those who only use the stroller on smooth sidewalks, but for most people, it will likely not provide a comfortable experience. The Cloud Plus features a three-tiered extended canopy that has a peek-aboo window for additional sun protection. The multi-position seat can be used by children up to 50 pounds. It also has a five-point safety restraint. This is a great option for older toddlers that have outgrown their car seats for infants. It comes with a single-step and compact folding mechanism that can be collapsed with practically only a click of one button. It also comes with a brake that is triggered by the foot and easy to adjust and release. The handle is lower than the majority strollers we've examined and some parents may find it uncomfortable to use for extended periods. The handle locks in place when it's opened. This is a great feature to have in case you will be using the stroller on uneven or muddy terrain. 3. Munchkin Sparrow The Munchkin Sparrow stroller is the ideal stroller for parents who are always in motion. The compact stroller folds up and down easily and fits into the overhead compartments of planes, or trunks in amusement parks (no need to worry about parking fees). It comes with a carrying bag which zips up for easy storage. It can be used with the infant car adapter right from birth and provides excellent sun protection thanks to its canopy. The only downside for certain parents is that they feel the look cheap and utilitarian. The BabyZen Yoyo+ stroller is more expensive than the other lightweight single strollers. However, it was specifically designed to be a luxury urban stroller and for travel. It is among the most easy strollers to fold and comes with a handy carry case. It's got plenty of storage space and a cup holder. The seat reclines almost flat for both the child and adult. This is the only stroller in our list with a car seat adapter to allow it to be used with infants. The handlebar is not adjustable and could pose an issue for parents who are short. The UPPAbaby Minu V2 isn't the lightest stroller on our list, but it comes with a ton of great features that help kids travel more easily. The spacious seat reclines to a pretty flat position, and has extra padding so that those naps on the plane last longer. The canopy extends to provide plenty of sun coverage and the tray that is on the back provides plenty of storage. It also features a footrest with springs that doubles as a handle when folded. This footrest is vulnerable to damage by baggage handlers. 4. Uppababy Minu V2 The Uppababy Minu V2 is a premium stroller that doesn't compromise on design or quality. Its compact design makes it easy to maneuver through narrow sidewalks and tight spaces and its robust structure allows it to withstand rough terrain without compromising the safety of your child.

It also features a single-action brake with color coded that's simple to use. The seat reclines in multiple positions and the leg rest can be adjusted with one hand, making it simple to find your child's perfect position.

At just under 15 pounds At just under 15 pounds, the Minu is easy to carry with a built-in handle and shoulder strap. It can be put in the trunk of your car, and comes with a storage case and Uppababy TravelSafe, which extends the manufacturer's warranty by two years and covers replacements if items are damaged in the course of air travel. 5. Joovy Aire Joovy is a well-known brand that makes various strollers. This stroller is light and ideal for parents 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 ideal for those who want a car seat-compatible model, or a double stroller. It won't work with infant car seats, and your babies must be able to sit on their own before they can use the stroller from the beginning.

It's an excellent choice for smooth surfaces. It also comes with a great canopy and plenty of storage, including a large parent tray. The front wheel suspension is a little stiff and the handlebar is smaller in diameter than the norm, but it offers an enjoyable ride for adults.

It has individually reclining seats, a large canopy with an opening window that can be seen from afar and lots of storage. It's heavier than other side-bysides however it has a decent weight capacity and can accommodate most children weighing up to 50lbs. You can add a bassinet on the front of the stroller to accommodate infants. If you are looking for a more luxurious version this stroller the Caboose Sit and Stand Stroller is a great alternative. It comes with the same great features as the model above and comes with a bassinet, allowing you to take your baby home from the hospital in fashion.
