If you're traveling to work or for vacation, picking the right stroller for your child can be the difference between a successful or unsuccessful journey. Consider the weight and age of your child, as well features like a reclining recline and plenty of storage and protection against weather.

We loved the egg2's compact fold and light, sturdy feel. It also has an adjustable recline mechanism, a large basket underneath the seat, and a the handbar is extremely comfortable. The only negatives are the stiff leg rest and limited storage space. The leg rest and basket could fit a small tote bag, but you'll have to remove the cushion on the seat to access it. The seat doesn't also have a large-sized compartment which can be a pain if you're juggling several bags and a screaming toddler.
If you're seeking a single-handle model that is more affordable, take a look at the GBQbit+ All City. It's akin to the Nuna Trvl and features a one-hand folding feature as well as an accessible leg rest. It does not have the same amount of undercarriage storage as some other models and its canopy is smaller.
During testing, the GB Qbit+ All City impressed us with its smooth ride on all surfaces. It was easy to roll on shag carpet and sidewalks that were paved and also did well in our durability test. It also offers a variety of customization options including a bassinet for newborns and riding boards.
A good option for parents who are frequent travelers The stroller is lightweight and folds down in half and can be tucked away in an overhead bin on trains or planes. The stroller has a sleek, modern design with one small pocket on the front for the phone of the parent and a bigger pocket at the back to store larger bags or weekenders. The padded seat is nicely designed, and the buckle system uses magnetic buckles that are simple to use and quick to secure even with a toddler in the back. It's also one of only one of the models we tested with brake feet, making it easier to stop in the event of need.

However, it is not the most user-friendly. It has a small base and small undercarriage storage capacity, which can make it less suitable for longer trips or errands.
