Stroller shopping - much help needed

[lou697]

Hi,

I'm looking for a smaller pushchair to replace my current travel system for my 14 month old.
I have spent the past few months looking at pretty much everything out there and cant make my mind up.

I want it for shopping trips and days out where I need the extra space in my car (ford fiesta) Also for holidays abroad. Only need it forward facing, easy to fold, preferably not 2 handled. I'm really not a fan of typical strollers.

I have sort of narrowed it down to:
Graco evo mini
Britax b agile
Mamas and Papas armadillo city

Any help or opinions on these or anything similar? Really struggling to decide.

Thanks for any help x

Can I add a micralite fast fold into the mix? I've loved mine for public transport/days out because it is free standing once folded, really easy to push and it has lasted 3 children.

Have a look at the City Mini Zip too.

I have seen the micralite while looking, I thought the seat looked to quite small, what sort of age did you use it up to?

just had a quick look at the city mini zip, hadn't come across it before. I rather like the look of it will have to see if i can find it instore to go look at.

Baby Jogger City Mini. Weighs nothing, folds up tiny with one hand, easy to steer with one hand, basically almost perfect.

Agree with Angel, several of our friends have borrowed ours and been amazed how good it is. It folds incredibly easily, light as a feather, and you can steer with one finger let alone one hand, oh and it turns on a tuppence.

I would never want anything else in terms of strollers.

Also Nuna Pepp and the Babyzen Yoyo are cool-looking and neat easy folds.

Agreed - look at the City Mini Zip too - even smaller fold but with a big seat and a lift up calf rest. The City Mini is the better choice if you don't need the fold to be as small as the Zip.
The Evo Mini is great too.
The B-Agile has a low handle so great if you are short.
The Armadillo City is good too, but on the medium side to push ie not the lightest.
Also look at the Recaro Easylife and the Babyzen YoYo.

Thanks for all the advice thats great. I thought it was hard enough when choosing our pushchair knowing nothing about them but now i know what i want it seems even harder.

Deffo gonna take a look at the city mini and zip

I thoroughly recommend the ICandy Raspberry, looks cool and folds with the seat on
