In our recent group test the UPPAbaby G-Luxe performed very well. The included strap made it easy to fold, push, and carry. However, it didn’t perform as well in our safety tests for pinch and there was a little movement between the handles during folding and canopy operation. This could cause fingers of children to get caught or pinched by the hinges.
The UPPAbaby G-Luxe is lightweight and easy to store. It can easily fit in an existing trunk or be hidden in the corner of your entranceway. It also has a lock clip on the right and can be upright when folded. It is small enough to fit into the back of your car or on public transport. The UPPAbaby G-Luxe has many nice features, including a parent tray and a basket for storage.
UPPAbaby Minu
The UPPAbaby Minu is one of the lightest strollers available on the market, but it has all the features of a large stroller. It is more maneuverable and fits in the overhead bin of the majority of commercial airlines. (You may not need it on Spirit for example). It can be used in conjunction with a car seat or bassinet.
The Minu is a sleek, stylish stroller with excellent maneuverability. It has a single wheel in the front that makes it much easier to turn, and allows the user to take a longer stride. It can move on most flat surfaces easily, though it might struggle on gravel and grass.
Its large basket is able to hold a large diaper bag and has a large canopy that remains in place when used in conjunction with a car-seat. It can be folded by hand and is easy to put together. It takes approximately 4:30 minutes to roll the cart out of the box. There are no tools needed for the two-step attachment of the wheels and canopy.
The Minu V2 is the latest model. Minu V2 has exciting changes to what feels like every feature of the model it replaced which includes improvements to the fold, stroller seat and basket. It’s now compatible with the UPPAbaby carrycot as well as the car seat and can also connect to an Piggyback ride along board for older children. It also comes with a no-rethread harness and an adjustable calf support that can be raised or lowered based on the child’s height.

Kolcraft Cloud Plus
The Kolcraft Cloud Plus is an excellent option if you are seeking a lightweight, compact stroller for daily use or travel strollers that is simple to put together. It comes with numerous features that are typically found in more expensive strollers like a large canopy and large storage basket. This stroller is ideal for those with smaller cars, or who have to fold and put it in the backseat or trunk. It can also be used on public transport, such as buses or shuttles.
This stroller offers a good amount of storage. It comes with a big deep, zippered storage container as well as a tray for children and an adult console with two cup holders. It has plenty of leg and head room for children. It also comes with a bench seat for toddlers that converts to an upright-and-sneeze position. The bench seat for toddlers is narrow and doesn’t give much room for your child to move.
Another problem is that the Kolcraft Cloud Plus is a bit difficult to maneuver on uneven surfaces. It is difficult to push straight, and it tends to shift to one side. It’s not the worst stroller that I’ve ever tested, but it’s also not the most efficient. The handle is also fairly low, at 37.5 inches away from the normal positioning for pushing. This could be uncomfortable for parents with back issues. The stroller is light and easy to move when folded. It is simple to put together and the instructions are concise and clear. The wheels are also easy to replace, which is beneficial when they wear out or need replacing.
