We were impressed by the egg2's compact fold and its light, sturdy feel. It also has an adjustable reclining mechanism, a spacious basket underneath the seat, and a the handbar is extremely comfortable. The only negatives are the slightly stiff leg rest and limited storage space. The leg rest and basket could fit into a small tote however you'll need remove the cushion in order to do so. The seat doesn't have a large-size pocket, which can be frustrating when you're trying to manage multiple bags and a squirmy kiddo.

If you're looking for a more affordable pushchair single-handle model, take a look at the Qbit+ All by GB City. It's similar to the Nuna Trvl in a variety of ways, including one-hand folding and an accessible leg rest.

In our tests we were awestruck by the GB Qbit+ All City's smooth ride on most surfaces. It was easy to roll over paved sidewalks and shag carpet and performed well in our durability test.

The stroller's lightweight design can be folded in half to fit into the overhead bin of a plane or train. Its design is sleek and a small front pocket for a parent's cell phone and an ample back pocket for larger bags, such as weekender bags or a tote. The cushioned seat is well designed, and the buckle system is equipped with magnetic buckles that are easy to use and quick to secure even with a toddler in the back. It's also among a few models that we tested with a brake foot, making it easier to stop in the event of need.

The BabyZen YoYo2 stroller is a popular choice for families traveling. It's extremely light (13.7 pounds) and features a compact and compact fold that makes it easy to fit in airplane aisles and overhead storage bins and offers a variety of features at a fair cost. It is compatible with many car seat brands and is one of the lightest strollers available.

It's difficult to maneuver. Its small base and limited undercarriage storage may limit its usefulness for longer trips or running errands. It is not the smoothest on most terrains and is prone to sway on bumps. The latest model has a more comfortable and better cushioned seats, but it's still not as high-end.

In general, we prefer single-handed strollers with brakes that are easy to lock and a spacious undercarriage for storage. We also recommend a padded seat and harness for added convenience, a cup holder for parents, and a foot brake that is simple to use.
