Best lightweight one-hand fold light stroller with decent sun protection

I know a million variations on this topic have been posted but I would appreciate some up to date recommendations. Need to buy asap! Will be transporting my one year old over a bridge (so ideally need to fold it one handed til they're a bit more steady on their feet or for it to be light enough to carry with them in it!), but also want something comfy enough to sleep in and a good sunshade, and ideally a decent size shopping basket. Parent facing option would be a bonus but not essential. Ideally something with good maneuverability. And under £100. Any suggestions?

Not sure how lightweight you would consider it (I have carried mine folded over a bridge with DS, although he was 2.5 and walking - but I reckon I could have carried him doing it when he was one), but BabyJogger Citi Mini ticks the boxes - super easy one handed fold, pretty much the best sunshade/hood going, and a reasonable shopping basket. Not parent facing though. Could pick up second hand for around £100 hopefully.

Or the BabyJogger Vue is their lightweight stroller - not exactly a one-handed fold, but one hand and one foot? Very light to carry, and does parent as well as forward facing. The hood is ok, although not as good as on the city mini. Shopping basket is crap though.

That is the sum total of my experience Grin

Hello, belated thanks for your reply. I'll check those out. Just seen the Mountain Buggy Nano which really liked, might have to revise budget!

I have a graco evo mini and a Mamas and Papas Armadillo and both of those would fit your criteria (apart from parent facing). You could get them for £100 or less second hand and the graco evo mini is sometimes on sale for only a little over 100.
