You'll Never Guess This Holiday Pushchair's Tricks

Choosing a Lightweight Holiday Pushchair

If you're planning a trip or need to replace your buggy the right lightweight travel stroller can make your trip a breeze. Our testers searched for a stroller that was light and easy to fold but also durable enough for daily use.

They also wanted to find something that was cabin-friendly and would fit in the limited space on planes, trains and boats.

Lightweight

It is important to travel with children and use a lightweight pushchair. It will be more convenient to transport and take up less space in your home. You will also find it easier to maneuver in a plane or train. You'll want a pushchair with a large, spacious basket that will hold plenty of clothes as well as other necessities. It should also have locks that allow swivel wheels to be used on rough and smooth terrain.

One of the best lightweight holiday pushchairs we've tested is Babyzen Yoyo2. It has a slim curved frame and high-quality mono-color fabric. It comes with a thick hooded hood that protects your child from sun and a cup holder for drinks. It can be folded using one hand. It is available in grey, black, toffee or red and is priced very affordably.

Another great lightweight holiday pushchair is the Joie Tourist. It's a stylish stroller that is available in a stunning shade of grey. It is also very light, with a weight of just 6kg. It can be folded down to size of that of a suitcase. It's perfect for parents who need an easy collapsible pushchair to travel with. It can be used as a stroller, with the seat that reclines.

If you're planning to travel with twins, think about a lightweight double stroller, such as the Mountain Buggy nano duo. It's the smallest, lightest and most affordable double pushchair on the market. It's easy to fold and unfold, and comes with a large storage bin. It also has a large hood and locking swivel wheels that can handle rougher terrain.

A light pushchair should come with an efficient fold mechanism that can be folded in a compact manner and be easy to carry. This makes it easier to transport your baby in taxis buses, trains and up and down stairs or escalators. The Joie Tourist is a great option, as it features an easy one-hand folding mechanism and can be placed in an overhead locker on flights. It has a big hood that shields your child from sun and an adjustable, comfortable handlebar.

Easy to Manoeuvre

A light travel buggy is perfect for those on vacation or just want something light to use around the house and when visiting family. There are plenty of choices, including those that come with a variety of extras, such as an infant bassinet, a rain cover, or a toddler legrest so their legs don't dangle. They may feel flimsy because they have a shorter frame and a smaller suspension than buggies that are larger. However, our MFM testers discovered that all were able to handle.

A good quality lightweight holiday pushchair will be easy to maneuver and will have large storage space to allow you to take plenty of things you need with you. It must also be freestanding when folded, which means it takes up less space in your home and is easily pushed through busy airports or tucked away in the car boot without sacrificing luggage space. The ability to fold and unfold with one hand is a major benefit, especially if you're travelling alone. You'll also want to find a stroller that's able to climb and descend stairs and on and off the escalators.

The MFM reviews found that the Graco Eezefold stroller was easy to navigate and, even fully loaded, it felt sturdy enough to handle cobblestones and bumpy roads. It's also super-easy to use on public transport and fits easily in the racks at the end of trains (it can be stored with its seat still in place). It is suitable for babies as young as and comes in a selection of colours as well as a variety of accessories including a baby bassinet with a footmuff, raincover and raincover. It's also available as a twin travel bundle.

Folding is simple

The Britax Holiday is light and super compact and is ideal for use as a compact pushchair because it folds down to a tiny size that can fit into overhead storage or even in the car boot. It's also cabin-friendly for air travel, and you can put it on your shoulder using an strap with an integrated. It's a little tricky to use at first but once you get the hang of it, it's an ideal stroller for those on-the-go trips.

Our testers tried it out on daily excursions, from quick trips to the shops to strolls in the park and longer trips to visit family and friends in other countries. It was simple to fold and carry and was very maneuverable in any environment. It comes with a spacious shopping basket, a full hood for rain protection and a handy cup holder that's a great choice for a travel cup. It's a great stroller for toddlers and babies from birth to 4 years old.

We are awestruck by the fact that it's easy to open and close, regardless of whether you're in a rush or your hands are filled with children. It's also a comfortable pushchair and the recline feature is simple to use for small children. It doesn't provide the additional support that a bassinet or carrycot can provide for infants, and it is not suitable as an infant travel buggy.

We have a thorough test process that combines the knowledge of our panel along with our research on the consumer to create an exhaustive buying guide. We have narrowed down our list of strollers by eliminating those that weigh more than 7kg and cannot be folded into a compact size. We have also picked products that are available at various price points to accommodate different budgets. This will allow you to choose a pushchair for travel that suits your needs.

Easy to store

You'll be jumping into and out of trains and taxis as well as going up and down escalators as well as stairs with your baby. It's therefore important to pick a light pushchair that is easy to move and store. Find one that folds down to an incredibly small size and then can stand up when opened, or pops into an incredibly compact flat fold, so it takes up less space in your living space. A freestanding storage basket can be handy if you need to stow the pushchair away when it's not in use.

The Graco EeZeFold can be a great option if you're looking for a travel stroller that's suitable for babies from birth. It comes with a compact and smart fold and a hood and rain cover to protect your little one from the sun. It's also compatible with a car seat so you can use it as part of a travel set-up from newborn to toddler. And there are a variety of accessories like a bassinet or a wheeled boards or leg rests for tired toddlers.

During testing it was super easy to steer and stomp through cobbles, bumpy roads and even some big kerbs. It was surprisingly sturdy for a lightweight and compact buggy. The only issue was that the seat did not recline, but since it's designed to travel, it's not a big issue. The handle bar is fixed at quite an elevated height and isn't very adjustable, but it was comfortable for short and tall adults during our test.
