Compact Pushchair Reviews

A compact and lightweight stroller can be the ideal choice for you if you frequently travel by car or public transport. They are easy to fold and store, and less likely to be damaged by baggage handlers.

These lightweight travel strollers provide modern convenience and are easy to navigate on cobblestones. Plus, they can be easily stored in overhead compartments of planes.

Lightweight

The most compact pushchairs are light to carry, and more importantly, simple to fold. Often they have a simple one-handed fold, and take up less space when folded than full-size buggies. This makes them an excellent option if you have limited storage space at home or are concerned about the space you have when traveling particularly by plane.

Some also have a very small footprint when closed, which allows you to walk through tight spaces. These are the best pushchair choice for those who live in apartments, or want something lightweight and easy to walk around in. They can be uncomfortable for older children who need to extend their legs in order to move around.

There are a variety of folds that are available. Some can be accomplished with just one hand, while others require two hands or more effort. Some are designed to fit within the baggage allowance for cabins on a variety of flights, or can be carried over your shoulder with straps or handles.

Silver Cross Dune is our preferred lightweight pushchair. This offers all the smart design and thoughtful features you would expect from this heritage brand however in a smaller package. 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 an excellent choice for parents who will be travelling a lot with their child. It fits in the majority of car trunks and smaller trunk spaces.

The Cybex Mios is another option. It straddles the two types of pushchairs and is a fully-functional system with nimbleness. It can be used from birth in a parent-facing mode and then switched to world-facing as your child gets older, and it also has a decent recline that's nap-friendly. It isn't quite as compact as the Libelle however it does come in smaller dimensions and is much easier to use on flat surfaces. It's not ideal for rough terrain, but. The other benefit is the low price tag and excellent durability tests.

Easy to store

The Joie Pact Pro makes the perfect travel buggy. It folds up so small that it fits into an overhead compartment and weighs such a small amount that you won't even notice it in your boot. It's also a good day-to-day stroller, and our test-driver Hollie found it easy to steer even while carrying her toddler. She appreciated the adjustable handle and lockable wheels however, she said it's not the most comfortable seat. But she also appreciates the possibility to add extras, including an reversible, washable seat liner, rain cover and an muff for the foot.

The Babyzen YOYO is another impressively compact fold foldable pushchair. It's not as streamlined as the Cybex Libelle but it's still a great product that can easily slide into car boot and trunks. It provides more options for babies in comparison to other buggies for travel. You can also add an infant cot or bassinet as well as an individual ride on board for older children, and a tandem seat adapter.

The YOYO isn't the most compact buggy for driving on rough or uneven terrain. Its tiny wheels don't perform well compared to other models that we have tested. It is still a very maneuverable pushchair sale, and the YOYO is great at navigating narrow aisles and muddy paths. It's ideal for holiday or city break.

The Cosatto Bee6 offers a remarkably simple list of features at its affordable price. It folds down to the size and weight of a huge bag and is simple to carry on trains and planes. It is also very easy to steer and our MFM tester Matt found it to be a joy to steer, even with a large toddler was aboard. The hood is also a plus, as it can be adjusted to shade you and protect from sun and rain. It's ideal for nap time. The only drawbacks are that it lacks under-seat storage and you'll need to carry or hang a bag on the handlebar (against our advice!). Alternately, you can buy an additional changing bag holder to make it a great buggy for holidays.

Easy to Manoeuvre

The wheels on compact pushchairs may appear small, but they usually perform surprisingly well, navigating narrow shopping aisles or rough terrain easily. The Micralite is an excellent example. Despite having small wheels, it is able to handle bumpy pavements easily and turn swiftly on narrow roads and even handle light gravel with ease. It also has a smooth steering system that is a breeze to steer using just one hand. And it folds down into a neat and compact size that is easily fit into its carrying bag.

Most compact pushchairs are designed for toddlers and older infants however, an increasing number of them offer a lie-flat seat or the option to add an additional carrycot (or baby car seat) to ensure they are suitable from birth. These clever concertina or Z fold buggies are usually light at 6-8kg and can be cabin approved on many airlines, making them ideal for travel. MFM Editor Gemma says she has used it on numerous occasions and has found it easy to use and store.

If you are looking for a compact fold then the YOYO is a fantastic choice. It was the first buggy that offered this feature. It is still a popular choice for parents who prefer it to its rivals due to its unique design and superior functionality. It's an excellent choice for frequent travelers, especially those who want to avoid the frustration of waiting in line for baggage collection by bringing their stroller along.

The YOYO is also extremely compact, fitting into the accompanying carrying bag easily and with some room to spare. This makes it an ideal option for frequent travelers particularly those who have to carry a lot of stuff in their suitcase. Additionally, it's extremely versatile - you can buy an array of accessories for it including the bassinet for babies, a custom ride-on boards and a twin travel bundles to transform it into an equilateral. You can also purchase an umbrella and rain cover to ensure your safety.

Confortable

For parents wanting a lightweight compact egg pushchair that is easy to operate and fits into the trunk of their vehicle, our review expert, Hollie, recommends this Silver Cross model. Its maneuverability and reclining seats are among the top in our tests. It also has a handy parent's tray and storage basket that fits a small backpack, plus it has great sun cover options (including a hood) and straps with padding that make your child to feel comfortable.

Some compact-folding pushchairs fold down so small that they're certified for use in air travel, making them ideal if you're travelling often or have a tight car boot space. They're typically lightweight to make them easy to carry. They are also able to be used in conjunction with a travel system in the event that you choose a model with a lie-flat seat or a newborn pod.

When looking for a travel stroll, it is important to keep in mind that not all models of buggy are all created equal. Some brands claim their compact fold pushchairs can be folded with one hand, whereas others might require more of an involvement or two hands to work out how to get it into the folded position. It's also worth checking whether the buggy has a seat recline. Some are completely flat, while others have only an incline that may be fine for toddlers but not for infants.

You'll also want to check whether your chosen model is specifically designed for the kind of travel you're planning on doing, for instance, in the event that you're going to a place that's hot make sure you choose one with a mesh that is vented to help keep your little one cool. If you're planning to travel somewhere that is stormy or rainy, you should make sure that the pushchair has a cover designed for it. Covers that are generic won't fit and could let water in.
