HELP!!!Recommendation for lightweight stroller

VANESSa PINDORIA · Dec 21, 2010 8:10AM

Hi, new to the forum

I am looking for a new lightweight, one piece stroller. I currently have the Quinny Buzz 3, which I am very happy with, but now as baby is 9 months old and I am travelling a lot, sometimes on my own, I need to have a back up.

My requirements are 24" width or less when in use (We cruise a lot and this is the maximum width due to cabin doors). Funky looking. Lightweight. Easy assembled. Good Sun canopy (we live in Canary Isles) and shopping basket.

I think I have narrowed it down to the Micralite Superlite, Quinny Zapp extra or the Baby City Mini Jogger.

Can anyone give their views or recommend, or advise on other models please???

Thanks in anticipation

Welcome to MFM Vanessa! And you’ve come to the right place for buggy advice – not only because of our reviews, but because there are quite a number of buggy fanatics among our members (come on and raise your hands via a post or two, ladies!).

In case you haven’t already checked out our professional and parent reviews, we put all the buggies you mentioned through their paces – here are direct links to the reviews for you to take a peek at:

Micralite Fastfold Super-lite – scored a huge 5 out of 5!

Quinny Zapp Xtra – we tested this as a travel system package so while there’s talk of how it performs with the car seat, our reviewer has paid loads of attention to its buggy performance, too. An impressive 4 out of 5 stars.

Baby Jogger City Mini – another 5 out of 5 star review!

Hi I am glad that you are sorted, just wanted to add for anyone else that I am a quinny caster, reviewing the quinny xtra and it is a great lightweight buggy. I love that is is forward or rear facing. It folds really small and is very comfy. Only buggy Erin has slept in! She doesnt usually sleep in buggy's as she like her bed too much but she does nap in the quinny xtra.
