From moderately priced to luxury, these are the best lightweight strollers (perfect for traveling and family trips!) at different price points.
It’s that time of year when we load suitcases and duffel bags packed with tiny summer outfits and matching socks (and whatever else we need for Pesach) into the trunk of our cars and head out to parents’ guest rooms, your husband’s childhood bedroom, or another (more exotic) destination.
With such limited living space in your temporary, week-long home (or your car!), you might consider leaving the full-size stroller behind and pack a lightweight travel stroller.
Here is a lineup of our top picks at different price points:
Mountain Buggy Nano $219.99

This ultra-lightweight stroller features a full recline, sling-style seat, making it newborn-ready, and a super-compact fold. It is FAA approved, and able to fit into the overhead bin in planes. The Nano is car seat compatible with an included universal car seat adapter.
Pros:
- Super lightweight (only 13 lbs)
- Smooth push
- Newborn ready
Cons:
- Two-step fold
