Choosing a Fold Up Pushchair

This UPPAbaby model is among the most attractive compact folds we've seen. It does have some limitations, including a tiny canopy, and there's no storage.

If you're planning on hiking with your baby it is essential for manoeuvring over uneven terrain.

Many pushchairs claim to be able to fold in one hand but it's important to test it before purchasing to confirm it's actually feasible while holding your child.

Lightweight

A pushchair that folds is often extremely small and light. This is especially true for umbrella-fold pushchairs, which usually weigh less than 20 pounds. They are perfect for short walks on pavements or flat surfaces and for transporting between your vehicle and other houses. These are also a good choice if you do not wish to purchase an all-terrain stroller but prefer to use your pushchair only on flat surfaces.

If you're planning to use a compact fold-away pushchair on uneven ground or on sand or muddy surfaces, consider getting an air-filled tyre. These tyres weigh more and provide more grip and traction. It's important to note that the extra weight will add to the size of your pushchair.

Many of the lightweight pushchairs were made for older infants and toddlers who can sit independently, but more are now suitable from the time of birth. These include models like the Mamas & Papas Airo, which has a lie-flat seat and the option of adding an additional carrycot (sold separately) or an infant car seat to create a travel system.

When you are choosing a stroller you should think about the size of the stroller when folded. Certain pushchairs come with a compact fold, while others are larger depending on their overall size and features.

The compactness of a pushchair could be a factor to consider in the event that you are planning to travel with it. Some models fold down to a small size or even a bag, making them ideal for storage in the boot of your car or carry on a plane. This is perfect when you plan to travel frequently or reside in an urban area, where you won't be able to carry a stroller that is larger daily.
