How to Choose a Travel Stroller

If you travel frequently, or if your daily strolls involve a quick out-and-back stroll and lots of visits to the local park take a look at a light stroller that you can pack. They are easy to fold and can be tucked away in trunks, trains, buses and planes.

The Nuna Trvl folds down to a small size and baby stroller (Suggested Webpage) fits in the overhead bin of many aircrafts. It's also very simple to assemble and comes with excellent features, including a simple, adjustable reclining seat.

Easy to Assemble

As the name suggests this stroller was designed to be easy to put together and use. The frame opens and folds with one hand, and the seat reclines in two different positions. The bumper bar is easy to replace and remove, and the handlebar feels and looks good. However, the lack of storage space means parents will need to carry a large diaper bag or wrap it around the handle (against the advice of an expert).

This stroller is light and easy to maneuver. It makes sharp turns and rolls smoothly on almost any surface. It has larger foam-filled rubber wheels than some of the other models we tested. This provides it with more bounce and stability. However some parents have complained that the tires feel flimsy.

In its compact travel pram form the stroller can be tucked away into the overhead bins of most aircrafts and weighs less than 13 pounds. Its minimalist design means it has few extra features, but it's still a solid option for frequent passengers. Be aware that collapsible walkers are considered "carry on" baggage, and might have to be checked by your airline if they are subject to strict baggage restrictions.

If you frequently travel it could be beneficial to invest more money in a stroller that comes with advanced features. These strollers that are more expensive typically come with more storage options, such as large bins under the seat and are easier to assemble and disassemble. A lot of these strollers come with adjustable harnesses as well as other safety features that you might not find on more basic models. Make sure to check with your airline to determine what their policies are regarding strollers and follow them to the letter. It's also crucial to read the user manual for your stroller, specifically those that deal with safety. Be sure to know how to properly use the straps and secure them. Also, remember to use your stroller only while walking at an appropriate pace and to never leave your child alone. This will reduce the risk of injury if your stroller accidentally tipped or swerves off-course.

Easy to Fold

One of the keys to a great stroller is the fact that it folds down into compact and manageable size. Some models do this well, such as the light JOOVY TRVL that folded in just four seconds during our tests and is able to stand upright in its collapsed state. It's easy to store in a trunk or closet and to carry on plane's overhead bins.

The UPPAbaby MINU V2 travel stroller is a similar lightweight, easy-to fold stroller. It weighs less than 17 pounds and has an enormous underseat basket which can hold a diaper bag or backpack. Its reversible footrest doubles as an handle when the stroller is in its folded position. This feature was great during our testing but unfortunately it made the stroller at risk of being damaged by airlines when one of our editors forgot to keep it closed while checking it in with her flight. The baggage handler snapped the footrest, and the UPPAbaby warranty will not cover damage caused by an airline.

Unlike umbrella strollers, most of the other strollers in our review make use of a variety hinges and joints to fold up into a more squarish package. For example the UPPAbaby G-Luxe folds in just three seconds and then stands up after it's folded, but its button/ring combination is finicky and requires you to time it just right.

You'll also want to think about how the stroller locks in its compact, closed position. Some models require pulling down a lever or handle near the rear wheels. Other models have red straps that must be connected. It's a good idea to read the owner's manual for specifics on the locking mechanism for each model and how it operates.

If you have a stroller which is difficult to close, use WD-40 or baby oil to grease all joints and connections. If that doesn't work, consult the customer support of the manufacturer or try the repair service for your stroller. But don't force it; pushing a stroller that's not intended to be closed may damage it or cause injuries to you or your child.

Easy to carry

It's essential that you easily access your stroller, regardless of whether you're planning to do errands for the day or go on an excursion with the family. Travel strollers fold in a compact manner and are light, making them easy to carry and transport. They can also be stored in your car or in a closet at home. Some models come with an organizer bag that makes transporting and protecting them much easier.

Consider how you will use the stroller before choosing one. Will it accompany you on airplane trips or be used for road trips or will it be used frequently in the city? This will allow you to narrow your options. If you're traveling with a child, look for a travel system prams stroller that's car seat-compatible to save yourself time and stress. If you have a toddler, think about a model with a larger rear seat to provide more comfort and legroom.

Check with your airline to ensure that the stroller you pick will fit in their overhead bins. Many airlines will check strollers at the gate if they are too large to fit in the cabin. Some airlines will send strollers to the hold when their baggage allowance is exceeded.

If you intend to use your stroller for travel often, you should choose one with wheels that are smaller and stronger than those used on traditional strollers. The smaller wheels are easier to maneuver, and are less likely to be damaged or punctured. You may also want to consider adding some wheel covers to provide additional protection.

If you're taking your travel stroller to the beach or other public locations where it's left unattended, invest in a lock to ensure it's secure. It's also a good idea to attach an umbrella portable to your stroller to provide sun protection. You can clip a utilitarian bag to the handlebar to do your shopping without hands or carry an aloe vera bottle. A set of carabiners on the front of your stroller is a great option to keep essentials like water bottles and snacks close in your fingertips.

Easy to store

The best strollers for traveling are easy to maintain and to store. Start by vacuuming the stroller to remove any particles of dirt or crumbs. If stains are evident then a clean cloth soaked in warm water and mild detergent is all you need. For difficult-to-access areas, a toothbrush can also be useful. A damp cloth is adequate for items that aren't made of fabric, such as the handlebars and wheels. It's important to lubricate these moving components to avoid rust.

Some travel strollers like the chit-chat lightweight stroller have an area for parents to store personal items, and two or more cup holders. This allows you to carry all the essentials on the move. Certain models come with a comprehensive parent tray that includes a slot for a tablet or laptop. These features not only aid parents in keeping their lives organized, but they also reduce stress on long trips.

Another important aspect to consider when choosing a travel stroller is the ability to fold and fit easily in tight spaces, like an overhead bin on airplanes or on public transportation. Because of this, many parents choose a stroller that can fold and fit in its own carry bag, rather than having to be checked at the gate with baggage.

When you are evaluating strollers based on their storage capacity, make sure to take into consideration the space you have at home too. A smaller stroller for travel is the best choice when you are limited on space. If you are planning to take the stroller on regular trips that require it to be transported via public transportation or a car and a larger stroller with more storage capacity and a better performance for everyday use might be the better option.

Certain strollers can be purchased as part of an overall travel package that includes a car seat for children. The cost is the similar or less than buying the products separately. While this is an excellent option, it's important to note that the quality of the stroller included in these bundles is often considered to be less than standalone models. We suggest that you think about these as a last option.
