Hi Eli, thanks for the great blog!
I am looking for the ultimate ultra-lite stroller to go on for trips. Important features for me:
- Can fit on a plane, preferably in the upper cabin storage (65*45*25 cm folded)
- Availability in Europe (most medium/large companies are)
- Seat can lay flat so it fits before 6 months or if he wants to nap
- Good as possible durability, not shaky or fragile
- Price is not a factor (most are under 400$ I guess).
Thank you, I appreciate your help!
Hi, Avi,
Please, at the start, read this article about ultra-compacts to know you CANNOT expect an ultracompact to be not shaky or fragile. Just look at them, their small frame, small wheels, small - everything. Do you expect a little kid to be "durable", as opposed to a bigger kid? It is just a comparison, but you get the idea. They had to make EVERYTHING smaller so the strength will also be... lower.
About the tips for good ones, read: this full Chicco Goody (Plus) review;
and this article with the TOP 2021 ultracompacts to know what you're looking at.
My personal suggestion, if the lie-flat seat is important for you, would probably be an Ergobaby Metro, a GB Qbit Plus All-City, a Cybex Beezy, or one of the reviewed stroller above.
