The UPPAbaby MINU V2 is another stroller that folds up easily and weighs less than 17 pounds. It also has an enormous underseat storage bin that can be used to store a backpack or diaper bag. The footrest that is reversible can double as a handle when the stroller is in its folded position. This feature was a huge hit during our testing, but unfortunately it made the stroller vulnerable to damage by airlines when one of our editors omitted to close it closed while checking it in with her flight. The baggage handler snapped off the footrest, and the UPPAbaby guarantee doesn't cover airline-related damage.

The majority of the strollers we looked at like umbrella strollers, utilize joints and hinges to fold into a more squared package. The UPPAbaby G-Luxe, for instance, folds in less than three seconds, and then stands up when done. However, its button/ring combo can be finicky, and you have to time it perfectly.

It is also important to take into consideration how the stroller locks into its compact closed position. Some models require pulling down the handle or lever near the rear wheels. Other models have red straps that need to be tethered. Check the owner's guide for more details about how each model's locking system works.
