what parents are saying
Easy peasy stroller that lets your child recline if needed. Careful with the cup holder though if you fold it up. It sticks out and can get knocked off. UPPA may have fixed this, but the rain cover we bought for it doesn't cover my child's feet. (Mar 14, 2013)

Parents love this as it’s super lightweight (just barely 15 lbs!) and easy to maneuver. Once folded, it can even stand up on it’s own, making it a cinch to store. The seat reclines nearly flat, a bonus feature for an umbrella stroller, so you can use this with babes as little as 3 months old. Parents also love that this stroller is suitable for kids up to 55 lbs, which means you can use it through the preschool years.
The catch: Some parents note that it can be difficult to use the storage basket when the seat is reclined.

This is the best umbrella stroller. We traveled Asia with it. The ample storage, reclining seat, the shoulder strap and the quick fold set this apart from all other umbrella strollers. Worth the money May 06, 2019

This is a really great stroller. I do recommend it. Its lightweight, stands on its own and compact. I wish the canopy covered more of the chair and was easier to wash. Mar 21, 2019

We love this stroller. This is our second Uppababy umbrella stroller. This is so easy to travel with, folders up compactly and is perfect for infant to toddler. I Feb 28, 2019

This is the best out there! I flew 8 times alone with my child year one and was able to collapse this ONE handed through TSA while holding a baby in my other hand. STURDY and smooth ride. Feb 23, 2019

The push isn’t that easy I find it comparable to other lightweight strollers. The Plus is the seat reclines with a leaver Feb 10, 2019

Not good for toddler. Even with the footrest down my daughter still couldn’t reach the food rest and I also find that the seat belt is not long enough. Feb 02, 2019

Such s great umbrella stroller. So comfy for the child and easy to use! Jan 17, 2019

We use this stroller a lot, but it's not that easy to collapse and the break is tough. It's a sturdy stroller with a big basket though--especially for an "umbrella" stroller. Jan 02, 2019

Easy to set up and compact! What's not to love! Jan 02, 2019

I think this stroller is overrated:/ it’s not that lightweight and the seat doesn’t really reclines. Dec 29, 2018

Most amazing lightweight stroller! Both my kids have used and loved this stroller! So comfy, smooth ride and still fits my almost 4 year old! Highly recommend! Nov 13, 2018

First umbrella stroller we tried. Great recline but basket is tricky to access and the long fold is annoying to manage on buses or in restaurants. Prefer square style folding and a bigger basket. Nov 12, 2018

We got the G-Luxe lightweight stroller for our trip to NYC. I recommend this stroller for traveling or urban city parents who have to carry it up flights of stairs. Nov 03, 2018
- Steph E.

Great umbrella stroller for travel. Super smooth ride and love the easy recline. I do miss the peekaboo window, though this was added to the most recent model. Basket is adequate for umbrella stroller Sep 30, 2018
- Whitney C.
Atlanta, New York
This is great if you want an all-purpose light weight strolller. It is solid and comfortable enough for your LO to use full time. It handles easily even with the difficult collapsing. Love it! Sep 12, 2018

Have an older model and love the convenience of an umbrella stroller with the nicer features of bigger strollers! Now I want to upgrade to a newer one! Sep 01, 2018

It's a beautiful stroller with a huge sun shade and quite lightweight but the collapse is terrible and the basket underneath is very small. Aug 16, 2018

Currently still have mine from 4 yrs ago which will get passed down to when my 4 month old is a little bit more solid & can be comfortable with more light Aug 02, 2018

It’s nice that it stands in its own and is padded well. But the wheels are very small and expensive for an umbrella stroller Jul 24, 2018
- Coraima V.

Such an easy stroller to fold and put away as it stands by itself. Very light to carry and take places. Love it, very durable too as it has lasted me for almost 3 years. Will continue to use. Jul 19, 2018

Great umbrella stroller! Folds up easily and is small enough to store, great for travel! Comfortable for my son and easy to clean. Oct 22, 2016
- Julia D.

I bought a 2012 from a fellow mama because I NEEDED to own an Uppababy. This stroller has many many positives, like the handling, the carry strap and kickstand, the recline. Price point is the worst! Oct 12, 2016

Finally, the umbrella stroller of my dreams! I'm only 5'5" but I really like tall handles and these are great! The fabrics are Great, and the fold is amazing! The adjustable leg rest is great! Aug 08, 2016

The best umbrella stroller on the market. My friend's Summer Infant broke, unusable. No issues, smooth ride and ergonomic handles. You can feel the difference. Worth the investment Jun 24, 2015

Love how lightweight this is, but it is so hard to collapse and open. Definitely cannot do one-handed. May 17, 2015
- Nicole H.

Hmmm, was really looking to purchase this for our NYC trip and lite travels, but after reading the reviews I'm not sure. Probably need to see one in person and play with collapsing it. Feb 09, 2015

As my son gets older, getting more frustrated with this stroller. Not so easy to fold. Hard to get to the basket when the stroller is in recline, though the recline is great. Jan 04, 2015

Im an cuppa baby loyalist and this is the best stroller for the back of the car. Easy to use, light, but still sturdy! Nov 25, 2014
- Elizabeth T.

For travelling or going to tight spaces, this stroller rocks. It's easy to fold and carry, and the baby looks comfortable in the seat (unlike some cramped umbrella strollers). Great for the train! Nov 25, 2014
- Emily S.

We love this stroller! After lugging the Cruz up and down three flights of stairs, this is a welcome addition to our lives. I can open and close one handed (maybe not the easiest). Shoulder strap! Nov 21, 2014
- Sarah L.
Boulder, Colorado
We bought this for traveling & to keep in the car; it has been great so far. Our baby was 3 mo. when we bought it, so the reclining seat was a big plus. It's easy to open & close & seems comfortable. Oct 22, 2014
- Missy V.

- Mary Kate L.

Super lightweight so it is great for when your hands are full. Issues are that it is difficult to open and close and the basket underneath isn't big enough for my diaper bag. Jul 25, 2014
- Laura K.
Dunwoody, Georgia
This is an easy to use stroller. We opted for the G-Luxe as the seat reclines, so our newborn could be in this stroller with a head support pillow. Easier for short people as the handles don't adjust Jul 24, 2014
- Noa A.

Perfect for travel! This is a super lightweight stroller (11 lbs) but doesn't feel too flimsy. We just traveled with it internationally and it was just what we needed. And I love the color! Apr 04, 2014

Really love this for our lightweight, travel stroller. Easy to use, very lightweight, and reclines which is nice. It does have a basket underneath which is great, but could be a bit easier to use. Apr 04, 2014
