UPPAbaby Minu V3

You can use it for everyday walks and trips. It folds with one hand and is sized for the overhead bin. At 16.7 lb, it isn't the lightest travel stroller. But the 20 lb basket is roomy for its size.

The Minu V3 folds with one hand in one motion. That's useful when your toddler has decided that walking is over. Close the stroller, and it stands upright while you gather the rest of the things that somehow came along.

At 16.7 lb, there's still a lift. Picture that at the car, on the stairs or in a plane aisle with a bag on your shoulder. A small folded stroller still needs carrying once the wheels are off the ground.

The Minu V3 is sized to fit an overhead bin. You can roll through the airport, then fold it for the flight. That sounds especially good when your gate turns out to be at the far end of everything.

The basket holds 20 lb. During the walking parts, the diaper bag and other bits can ride below. At home, that same space helps with errands. A stroller you bought for a trip can earn its place on the grocery walk, too.

All-wheel suspension, including separate rear suspension, helps with bumps along the way. You'll meet plenty of those close to home.

The deep recline lies flat and works from birth. You can take those first slow walks in the stroller seat, without adding a bassinet. It's nice when the small stroller you want for travel can also handle the baby days at home.

When your baby gets sleepy, the seat can lie flat. The walk doesn't have to end just as you've found your stride. Some days a quiet loop is the nicest bit of the afternoon.

The seat has a 50 lb limit and a 40 in height limit. A taller toddler can outgrow it before reaching the weight limit.
