How to Choose a Travel Stroller Consider a foldable, lightweight stroller if you travel often or if you stroll in the park often. They fold easily and can be tucked away in trunks, trains, buses and planes. The Nuna Trvl is incredibly compact and fits in the overhead bins of many planes. It's also very simple to assemble and comes with excellent features, including a simple, adjustable reclining seat. Easy to Assemble Like the name suggests, this stroller was designed to be simple to put together and use. The frame opens and folds using only one hand. The seat is adjustable to two positions. It also comes with a bumper bar that slides off and on with ease and the handlebar looks and feels nice and feels great too. The lack of storage means that parents have to carry a huge bag or drape it carefully over the handle, which is not in line with the advice of experts. This stroller is light and easy to move effortlessly over all surfaces, even rough sidewalks. It also makes sharp turns. It has larger foam-filled rubber wheels than the other models we have tested. This gives it more bounce and stability. Some parents have complained that the tires are thin. The stroller is small enough to fit in the overhead bins on most planes, and weighs just 13 pounds. Its simple design means that it comes with a few extra options, but it's a good option for frequent travelers. Be aware that collapsible walkers are considered “carry on” baggage and could require a check by your airline if they have strict baggage restrictions. If you're an avid traveler, it may make sense to invest in a stroller with more advanced features and a higher price point. These higher-end strollers typically come with more storage options, such as large underseat bins and are easier to assemble and fold. In addition, many have adjustable harnesses, as well as other safety features you might not find in more basic strollers. Be sure to check with your airline to learn their policies for checking strollers and follow their instructions exactly to avoid any unforeseen issues. It is also essential to read the user's manual for your stroller, specifically any sections that cover safety. Particularly, you need to understand how to secure the straps and to ensure that you use them in a safe manner. Be sure to supervise your child and only use the stroller when walking at a safe pace. This will lower the chance of injury if your stroller accidentally tips over or veers. Easy to Fold A good travel stroller must fold down into a compact, manageable size. Some models do this very well, such as the light JOOVY TRVL, which folded in less than four seconds during our testing and can stand up in its collapsed state. This makes it easy to store and transport in the trunk or closet. The UPPAbaby MINU V2 travel stroller is a similar lightweight, easy-to fold stroller. It weighs less that 17 pounds and has an underseat basket large enough that can hold a large diaper bag or backpack. Its reversible footrest doubles as an handle when the stroller is in its collapsed position. This feature was a huge hit during our testing, but unfortunately, it left the stroller susceptible to damage 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 off, and the UPPAbaby warranty will not cover damage caused by an airline. The majority of the strollers we tested unlike umbrella strollers, use hinges and joints in order to fold into a more square package. For instance, the UPPAbaby G-Luxe folds in only three seconds and is upright when it's done, but the ring and button combination can be finicky and requires you to time it perfectly. It is also important to think about the method by which the stroller locks in its compact closed position. Some models require you pull down the handle or lever near the rear wheels while others have red straps that must be connected. Check the owner's guide for more details on how each model's locking mechanism operates. If you happen to encounter a stroller that is difficult to close Try using a product such as baby oil or WD-40 for lubricating the joints and connections. If you're not successful, contact the manufacturer's customer support or consider a stroller repair service. However, don't make it close. Forcing the stroller to close even though it isn't intended to close it can harm it and cause injuries to both you and your child.

Will you use it on roads, for plane trips, or in your daily life? This will allow you to narrow your choices. You can save time and energy by selecting a travel stroller compatible with car seats if traveling with a child. You should consider a stroller with a larger rear-seat to provide more comfort and legroom if you have a toddler. Contact your airline to ensure that the stroller you choose 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 take strollers to the hold in the event that their baggage allowance has been exceeded. If you plan to use your stroller for a lot of time, choose a model with wheels that are smaller and more durable than those found on traditional strollers. The wheels that are smaller will be easier to maneuver and less likely to cause damage or puncture. You may also wish to consider adding some wheel covers for additional protection. If you're planning to take your travel stroller to the beach or to other public places where it's left unattended, invest in a lock to secure it. It's also recommended to attach a portable umbrella to your stroller for sun protection. You can clip a utility bag onto the handlebar for doing your shopping hands-free or carry an aloe vera bottle. A set of carabiners in the front of your stroller will let you keep snacks and water bottles near by. Easy to Store The best travel strollers can be easily maintained and stored. Begin by vacuuming the stroller to get rid of any dust or crumbs that may be floating around. If there are any stains, using a damp cloth soaked in mild detergent and warm water ought to work. For areas that are difficult to reach brushing with a toothbrush could come in handy. A damp cloth is sufficient for components that aren't made of fabric, like the wheels and handlebars. It is essential to grease these moving parts to prevent rust. Some strollers for travel like the chit chat stroller, come with a parent tray for personal items, as well as one or more cup holders, making it easy to take care of essentials on-the-go. Some models have a more extensive tray for parents that comes with the ability to hold a tablet or laptop. These features don't just help parents stay organized, but they reduce stress during long trips. Another important aspect to consider when choosing a stroller for travel is its ability to fold and fit easily in tight spaces, like an airplane overhead bin or on public transport. This is why many parents opt for a stroller that can fold and fit in its own bag, rather than having to be checked at the gate with baggage. Consider how much room you have at home when evaluating strollers. A smaller travel stroller is the best choice if you have limited space. If you plan to take the stroller on frequent trips that require it to be transported by car or public transport or by public transport, a larger stroller that has better storage and everyday performance could be a better option. Some strollers are available as part of a travel package that includes the child car seat. The cost is same or lower than buying the products on their own. While this is a great option however, it is important to remember that the quality of the stroller included in bundles tends to be lower than standalone models. As a result, we suggest considering these options only as an option last resort.
