3. Doona Stroller

4. Trvl Stroller

The Nuna Trvl Stroller is the ideal companion for any trip whether it's a short weekend getaway, a lengthy trip, or a short city trip. This lightweight stroller packs a big punch with high-quality comfort for your child as well as convenience for you, including the super compact self-fold which redefines what it means to be travel prepared.

Its progressive front and rear wheel suspensions are ideal to navigate bumpy terrain while the adjustable calf support raises to convert the seat into a carriage so your little one can comfortably enjoy the ride.

The Trvl has a big accessible, easy-to-access basket that is able to hold a large amount of gear (it can accommodate a diaper bag and small backpack!). The legs of the stroller are wider for more stability and it is able to roll over all surfaces. The fold is tricky. The ring and handle combination needs to be perfectly timed, so it is prone to slipping out of alignment in the event of a mishap. It's a minor issue however, it is something to think about if you're going to be taking this stroller on trips.

5. Graco 3D Lite Stroller

This stroller for a single child has plenty of features for the money. It comes with an expandable basket as well as a parent cup holder. It can be folded in a matter of seconds. It has an adjustable tray for the child and a 5-point safety harness. Its drawback is that it can't recline fully, so it's not the ideal choice for newborns (use from 6 mo+).

This is the most affordable stroller that we've reviewed. It's lightweight and has an elevated seat that allows your child a good view. It's not as sturdy as the more expensive models and may struggle on uneven surfaces, such as cobblestones. It also has dual front wheels that can shift to the side when they encounter obstacles.

The 3D Lite comes with a small storage container that can fit a backpack diaper bag of medium size. It also comes with an unobstructed view of the canopy. Its sunshade is quite small and may be the smallest and does not extend beyond the back of your child. It does come with a pop-out sun visor, however.

The seat comes with a 5-point harness that's padded, and the frame comes with an adjustable shoulder strap so that you can carry it when folded. It's not as compact as the TraveLite but it folds extremely quickly.

It has three recline positions however not all the way down (use from 6 months+). The brakes are a bit more rigid than the competitors and require both sides to be pressed in order to get full brake engagement. Overall the quality of the 3D Lite is decent for its price. It's better than the budget-friendly Kolcraft cloud plus, but not as good in comparison to some of its more costly rivals.
