A Single Hand Fold Stroller Is Easy to Use and Fits Into Tight Spaces

A stroller must be easy to maneuver and fit in tiny spaces. This model folds in one hand and is ideal for travel.

The canopy is big and has a peek-aboo view. It also comes with an enormous undercarriage bag. The only drawback is that it can't fit in some airplane overhead bins.

Features

Choose the right travel stroller for your trip whether you're to a vacation destination or traveling for business. Take into consideration your child's weight and age as well as features like a recline that is deep as well as ample storage and weather protection. You'll also want to select a model that's easy to fold and unfold using one hand, particularly when you're holding the child.

The egg2 was an excellent option for us due to its compact fold, light weight and sturdy feel. It also has a great cushioned handlebar, a recline mechanism, and an ample underseat basket. The only drawbacks are a stiff leg rest and an insufficient amount of storage space. The leg rest basket as well as the leg rests can both fit in inside a small bag, but to do so you'll need to remove the seat cushion. The seat doesn't have a large-sized pocket, which can be frustrating when you're trying to manage several bags and a screaming toddler.

If you're looking for a more affordable combi single stroller-handle model, take a look at the Qbit+ All from GB City. It's akin to the Nuna Trvl with its one-hand folding feature and accessible leg rest. However it doesn't have as much storage space under the vehicle and its canopy is smaller than other models we've tested.

During our testing the GB Qbit+ All City impressed us with its smooth and easy ride on all surfaces. It was easy to roll on paved sidewalks and shag carpet and performed well in our durability test. Additionally, it provides numerous options for customization including a baby bassinet attachment and a riderboard for siblings.

A good choice for parents who are frequent travelers, this lightweight stroller folds down in half and can be tucked away in an overhead bin on trains or planes. Its sleek design with a small front pocket to store a parent's phone and an ample back pocket for larger tote or weekender bags. The padded seat is nicely shaped, and the buckling system is equipped with magnetic buckles that are easy to use and quick to secure, even with a toddler in tow. It's also one of only a handful of models we tested with brake foot, making it easier to stop in the event of need.

Design

If you're going to take a stroller on the go, choose models that is able to be folded, carried and transported with other luggage. Some of these travel strollers come with straps or carrying cases that allow you to carry them on your shoulder. These strollers are ideal for long days of sightseeing or navigating narrow aisles on public transportation.

Consider features such as the dimensions of the basket as well as the canopy when choosing a single pro stroller-hand folding stroller. Think about whether you need a tray for your child or an adjustable legrest, and how much weight the stroller can support.

The Nuna Trvl is GH's preferred stroller with one hand. It is a lightweight travel stroller that is easy to handle, comes with a an incredibly comfortable reclining seat, as well as a large storage bag. It's also beautiful and can be used on all surfaces and can make sharp turns.

The GB Qbit+ All City is another excellent option for a lightweight and compact stroller that's easy to carry. It's similar to the Nuna Trvl, but it's slightly cheaper and has some additional convenience features. These include an adjustable legrest and a simpler recline system that is nearly all the way back.

Other notable lightweight strollers include the Cybex Orfeo (which earned a spot on our best single buggy car seat travel systems list), the UPPAbaby Minu and the GB Pockit. The Cybex Orfeo is compatible with six car seat brands and has a one-handed, self-standing fold. It's a bit heavier than other top models in this class however, and its front wheel may be better in absorption of bumps.

The UPPAbaby Minu has a lot of the same features as the larger prams from the brand but it folds up more compactly and fits into the majority of overhead bins for airplanes. The padding on the seat is substantial and its recline feature offers two settings that are simple to operate. It also comes with a lovely unstructured rear storage compartment and a clasp that keeps the stroller folded when it is in use.

Weight

This stroller is able to be folded down into a lightweight, compact package that can easily fit in overhead bins of airlines, making it perfect for air travel. It also comes with a large storage basket as well as child tray. It does have some disadvantages, like the limited recline (it can only be lowered down to a small angle) and instructions in pictures instead of words. However, it is a good option for families who want an easy, lightweight stroller.

The BabyZen YoYo2 stroller is a popular choice for travelers. It's extremely light (13.7 lbs), has a small and compact fold, which allows it to be easily tucked in airplane aisles and overhead storage bins, and has a number of features at a reasonable cost. It's compatible with several car seat brands and is among the lightest strollers for travel on the market.

It's not easy to maneuver. Its narrow base and the limited storage under the car can make it unsuitable for longer trips or errands. It's not the smoothest rider on all terrains, and it is prone to roll on bumps. The most recent version comes with more comfort in the seat and better padding but it's still not as high-end as the first.

In general, we prefer single pushchairs-handed strollers that have brakes that are simple to lock, and a large undercarriage for storage. We also recommend a cushioned seat and harness for added comfort, a convenient cup holder for parents, and a foot brake that is simple to use.

Our top picks were chosen after extensive testing by Senior Editor Chris Abell, and Commerce Updates Editor Hillary Maglin. We test the strollers in our New York City lab and on the streets of the city. We also donate eight strollers we test to local families in need.

The Silver Cross Jet 4 is one of the best single-hand fold strollers you can find. It can be folded in four seconds using just one hand. It takes just a few seconds to push the stroller into place. Its narrow frame means it fits nicely in overhead bins and can be moved like luggage down some 19-inch aisles of airplanes. The fabric is strong and the canopy provides plenty of sun protection. There are two cup holders, and a tray for the parent.

The Uppababy Cruz is a different great stroller that folds by just one hand. It has a wide seat that has deep recline and plenty of legroom. Its sleek design makes it easy to maneuver, even over rough terrain. The front wheels were specifically designed for India's bumpy roads, and it comes with a padded brake linked to it. The only issue is that the Cruz isn't equipped with straps for carrying, so it's not ideal for long walks.

The Mountain Buggy Nano is an ideal choice for those looking for a compact, lightweight stroller that folds with one hand. It's heavier than the other choices on this list however, it weighs less than 16 pounds and easily can be tucked away in the overhead compartments of most planes. The basket can accommodate a diaper bag and the seat reclines to two positions.

The Quick is a fantastic stroller that comes with premium features and a small size. It weighs just 12.8 pounds.
