Recommend your umbrella/lightweight stroller...

Stellar1 · May 2010

We are going to NYC for 2 weeks over the summer. I don't want to bring my big stroller so we are looking for something that will be easy to transport on a plane and will be easy to use while we are there. Do you all have any recommendations? TIA

We just bought a Jeep Wrangler All-Weather umbrella stroller. It was $35 at Walmart and is wonderful. It is light but sturdy.

Chicco capri! I use mine all the time!

I also like our Chicco Capri. It even comes with a nice carrying sack.

Thanks! I'll check them out.

We have the Chicco Liteway and love it. For some reason DD loes it more too. She'll sit in it longer than she would on our travel system stroller. I love that it reclines back enough for her to sleep. Most umbrella strollers don't recline far back enough.

Ditto - we just bought ours and I'm already in love. I don't know why I didn't get one AGES ago

Quinny Zapp! Great for traveling. Folds compactly enough to fit under a bus or train seat and can fit in the overhead of an airplane.

I don't like my basic one from BRU. Not sure of the brand.

The Combi Cosmo EX - wicked light (13lbs), folds/unfolds quickly and easily and there's a strap on the back to carry it like you would a camp-style folding chair. Two downfalls, non cupholder (I need to go get a clip on one) and it has a practically useless storage area underneath. It fits just a few little things but def. wouldn't fit a diaper bag. I just hang mine on the back.

We had the chicco... I recently upgraded to The Maclaren Triumph....LOVE IT!! Handles so well...

We like our Maclaren Volo. It handles really well and is super light. I would recommend spending the money on a good umbrella stroller. The cheapo ones that you can get aren't worth it.
