Compact Pushchair Reviews

A lightweight pushchair compact stroller will be an ideal option for those who frequently travel on public transportation or in a car. They are easy to fold and store, and they're less likely to be damaged by baggage handlers.

These strollers that are lightweight are practical and easy to maneuver over cobblestones. They also fit in overhead compartments on planes.

Lightweight

The most compact pushchairs fold easily and are easy to carry. Most of them have a one-handed fold and occupy less space when folded than full-size buggies. This makes them a good option for those with limited storage space at home or are concerned about the space you have when traveling on planes, for example.

Some have a small footprint when closed, making them ideal for tight spaces. These are usually the ideal option for those who reside in an apartment or simply want something light and lightweight for your daily walking. They aren't ideal for older children who need to extend their legs in order to move around.

There are many different types of folds that are available. Some can be completed with just one hand, while others require two hands or more effort. Some are designed to fit into the baggage allowance for cabins on many flights, or can be carried over your shoulder using a strap or handle.

If you're looking for a light pushchair, our favorite is the Silver Cross Dune. The Silver Cross Dune is compact and offers all the features and thoughtful design you'd expect from this heritage brand. It also has a very easy-to-use fold, and similar to the Contours Itsy, it comes in a box that is fully assembled. It's a great choice for parents who are planning to travel extensively with their infant and can be tucked away in the majority of car boot spaces and trunk spaces.

Another good alternative is an alternative is Cybex Mios, which straddles the two categories of pushchairs as a fully-functional travel system with agility and a compact fold. It can be used in parent-facing mode from birth and then switched to a world-facing position as your child ages. It also has an adequate recline feature that's suitable for napping. It's not as compact as the Libelle however it's a bit smaller and easier to use on flat surfaces. It is not suitable for rough terrain. The price is affordable and the durability tests are excellent.

Easy to store

The Joie Pact Pro makes the perfect travel buggy. It folds down so small it can fit into an overhead compartment and weighs so light that you'll barely be able to tell it's there in your trunk. It's also a great day-to-day stroller and our tester Hollie found it easy to steer even while juggling her one-year-old. She liked the adjustable handle, lockable wheels and the reclining seat. However, she noted that it wasn't particularly comfortable. However, she also likes the ability to add additional features, such as a reversible, washable seat liner, rain cover, and an muff for the foot.

The Babyzen YOYO is a similarly compact foldable pushchair. It's not as streamlined as the Cybex Libelle but it's still a great product that can be easily slid into trunks and car boot. It also has more options for babies than other travel buggies, with the option of adding a bassinet or newborn cot and a custom ride-on board for older children and a double seat adapter.

It's not the most compact buggy for driving on uneven or rough terrain, and its tinier wheels don't perform as well as some other models we've tried. It's still a maneuverable pushchair, and the YOYO is great at of navigating narrow aisles and slippery pathways. It's ideal for a city break or holiday.

The Cosatto Bee6 offers a remarkably streamlined list of features for its competitive price. It can fold down to the size of a backpack and weighs just 6kg, making it an easy travel buggy to cart on trains and planes. It is also very easy to steer and our MFM test rider Matt found it an absolute joy to steer even with a large toddler was riding along. The hood is a benefit, since it can be raised to shade you and protect from rain and sun. It's also great for naps. Its only drawback is that there's no storage under the seat and you must carry or carefully hang your bag over the handlebars (against expert advice!). Alternatively, you can purchase a separately sold changing bag holder to make it an ideal holiday buggy.

Easy to Manoeuvre

Wheels on compact pushchairs may look small, yet they're usually quite efficient in navigating narrow aisles and rough terrain. The Micralite is a perfect example of this - despite having small wheels it handles bumpy roads effortlessly and is able to turn sharply on narrow streets, and is able to handle light gravel without much of a problem. It also has a smooth steering system that is easy to steer with just one hand. It folds down into a neat and compact box that is easily fit into its bag for transport.

Most compact pushchairs were made for toddlers and older children. However, a growing number of them have an option to lie flat or the option to add a carrycot (or car seat) so that they can be used from the moment of birth. These concertina or Z fold buggies are usually very lightweight, weighing only 6-8kg. They are also certified for use in the cabin by many airlines. MFM Editor Gemma has used hers numerous occasions and says it's incredibly easy to pack and use.

If you're looking for a compact fold, then the YOYO is a great option. It was the first buggy to offer this feature. It's still a popular choice for parents, with many favouring it over its imitators thanks to its clever details and superior functionality. It's an excellent choice for frequent travelers, especially those who want to avoid the stress of waiting in lines for baggage collection by bringing their stroller with them.

The YOYO is also extremely compact and can fit into the carrying bag with ease and with plenty of room. This makes it a great option for frequent travellers, especially those who need to carry a lot of stuff in their suitcase. Plus it's incredibly adaptable - you can purchase an array of accessories for it, including baby bassinets, a bespoke ride-on boards and a twin travel bundle to turn it into the form of a tandem. You can also purchase a rain cover and hood to ensure your safety.

Comfortable

Hollie is our reviewer who recommends the Silver Cross model to parents seeking a light and compact pushchair up to 25kg. It's user-friendly and can be tucked away in the trunk of your car. The Silver Cross model's maneuverability and reclining chair were among the top of our tests. It also comes with a tray for parents and a storage basket that can fit small backpacks, and it comes with great sun-cover options (including a Hood) and padded straps that help your child to feel comfortable.

Some compact-folding pushchairs fold down to a size that makes them certified for use in air travel and are ideal for when you frequently travel or have a tight car storage space. They are usually lightweight to make them easy to carry. They are also able to be used in conjunction with a travel system, when you choose a model with a lie-flat seat, or a newborn pod.

The most important thing to remember when choosing a travel buggy is that not all models are created in the same way. Certain brands claim that their compact-folding pushchairs fold easily with just one hand. Others may require more effort or two hands to fold it. It is also worth checking if the seat has a recline - some are fully flat, while others have only an incline that may be suitable for toddlers but not for infants.

Make sure that the model you choose is appropriate for your travel plans. For instance If your destination is hot it is recommended to choose models with mesh fabric that's vented to keep your child cool. Also, if you're planning to go somewhere rainy or windy, make sure the pushchair you buy has an appropriate cover designed specifically for it. generic covers won't fit properly and could let water in.
