Features

When you travel to work or for vacation, selecting the right stroller for your child can be the difference between a successful or unsuccessful excursion. Take into consideration your child's weight and age, as well as features like a recline that is deep with plenty of storage space and weather protection.

The egg2 was an excellent choice for us due to its compact fold with a light weight and strong feel. It also features an adjustable reclining mechanism, a spacious basket under the seat and a great padded handbar. The only negatives are the somewhat stiff leg rest and the limited storage space. The leg rest and basket could be used to carry a small bag, but you'll have remove the seat cushion to access it. The seat doesn't also have a large-sized compartment which can be a hassle when you're trying to carry multiple bags and a screaming toddler.

If you are looking for a single-handle model that is more affordable, take a look at the GBQbit+ All City. It's similar to the Nuna Trvl in many ways, including one-hand folding and an accessible leg rest. It does not have the same amount of storage under the carriage as some other models and its canopy is smaller.

In our tests, the GB Qbit+ All City impressed us with its smooth ride on all surfaces. It was a breeze to roll across paved sidewalks and shag carpet, and it performed well in our tests of durability. It also offers a variety of customization options including a newborn's bassinet attachment and riding boards.
