Cheap Single Pushchairs
The Babyzen Yoyo stroller is a good option if you are on a tight budget and do not need a stroller that can be used as car seat carriers. It features a flip-flop-friendly one-step footbrake.
It's simple to push, and it feels solid when you are walking along woodland paths and kerbs. Additionally, it's easy to fold.
1. Babyzen YOYO2
The Babyzen YOYO2 has earned a reputation as the most stroller that is light, ideal for city dwellers as well jet-setters. This is due to its extremely nimble handling and fold which fits in the overhead luggage of an aeroplane. The latest version has independent suspension on all 4 wheels comprised of Hytrel elastomer. This allows it to perfectly traverse all terrains and types'.
The curved fabric bassinet, base YOYO2 frame and 6+ months colour pack combine to create a chic pushchair that has a soft elegant design. The frame's base weight is less than a kilogram, and is so lightweight that it is able to be lifted from the box with just one hand.
It's also easy to attach or remove adaptors or attachments - the hood, for instance, snaps on to the YOYO2 with reassuring clicks - as well as being machine washable to prevent staining from rice cakes smushed and half-dissolved carrot puffs. It can be used as a pram from birth using the Newborn Pack or bassinet, or converted into stroller at 6 months using the YOYO Connect additional chassis.
2. Evenflo Pivot Xplore
The Evenflo Pivot Xplore is a great option for parents who want an adaptable stroller wagon. The Evenflo Xplore can be converted from a stroller into an actual wagon by flipping the handle. Parents can then decide which mode is best for their journey. The wagon can hold one or two children from 6 months to 5 years old, and it comes with a spacious storage basket that can accommodate everything you require on the go.
The Xplore comes with two canopy options that rotate from front-to-back, providing adequate sun protection for the entire family. It also has a footwell that's not as deep or large as some wagons, so it may not be ideal for long-distance excursions or for napping.
The frame of the Xplore feels sturdy and solid however it doesn't have the same flexibility as other wagons we tried. It is also more difficult than other wagons to fold, and it's not able to lock tight once folded. It is easy to maneuver however, and is able to fit through narrow 28 inches doors.
3. Delta Children LX Side by Side
This Delta Children bare-bones travel stroller is a great option for parents looking for a second stroller that's priced reasonably. It earned an eye-catching score in our Strollers and Multiples test for weight and fold size which means it's lightweight, small when collapsed and easy to lift into a trunk of a car or closet. It also offers the option of reclining in multiple positions and a parent cup holder. Other key features include 360-degree shock-absorbing front wheels as well as two large hanging storage bags.
In our test of push and turn it performed better than the majority of other strollers that we tested, but it's still not the easiest to maneuver over uneven ground or through narrow doorways. Its sunshades are among the ones we tested the smallest, providing only direct overhead coverage, and no windows that peek out. The UPPAbaby G-Link 2 has a more extensive canopy.
The Delta took us just over three minutes to put together using an average manual and all of the components required tools. It's lacking certain features we consider essential in a double stroller. Pushchairs And Prams includes an extra-large basket, reclining seats and adjustable leg rests.
4. Maxi-Cosi Zelia 2-in-1
The Zelia is Maxi-Cosi's latest pushchair that is advertised as a travel system for urban use. It is designed to carry infants from birth until around 3.5 years old, and can be converted between a carrycot and seat in just a few clicks. It can be used with Maxi Cosi capsule car seats. It comes with a lightweight Mico 30 infant seat, a stay-in-car-base and reversible carriage.
It is really easy to maneuver, and the one-hand reclining of the seat as well as the super large shopping basket make it easy for parent-tots to get the child in and out of the seat quickly. Despite being narrow, the pushchair handled the bumps of everyday life well and went through doorways without any fuss.
The front wheels can be locked into a forward position or let them swivel which is helpful when traversing rough terrain. We let the front wheels to rotate on our walk along a stony path. It handled this reasonably well, though it did seem slightly rougher.
5. Baby Jogger City Tour 2
Baby Jogger is best known for its 3-wheeled, all-terrain, strollers for jogging. However, they also produce a wide selection of pushchairs with four wheels. The City Tour 2 is one of their most sought-after models. It is simple to use and folds small enough to fit into the car boot, even with the carrycot attached.
It weighs more than other strollers that we tested, but because it comes with rubber composite wheels it feels solid and well-constructed. It is easy to maneuver on various terrains and even with two kids, a shopping bag and other items.
The seat and carrycot both have hoods that can be pulled down to reveal UV50+ sun canopy extensions. They are water-resistant and durable unlike other prams' hoods which are whipped back into toddlers faces.
It doesn't have a lot of storage space but it has an ample basket that is deep enough to accommodate a changing bag or plenty of food. It can also be connected with the Baby Jogger infant car seat to create a travel system for babies up to 20 lb (car seat and adapters sold separately). The City Tour 2 is a excellent choice if you wish to take a stroller on the go.

The seat can be reclined in various positions. It also comes with a built-in double breathable mattress that is suitable from birth.
The canopy/seat features two extra-large fixed or flip-out sun visors and both are UPF50+. However the toggle closure isn't ideal because it's not as quiet as Velcro and may wake napping babies.
The Duet is a side-byside stroller and can be adapted to accommodate twins or siblings (up to 22kg maximum per seat). It is compatible with two infant car seats and even works with some carrycots.
