Best Plane Friendly & Cabin Approved Strollers For 2023

What is a cabin approved stroller.

A cabin-approved stroller, also known as an airline-approved stroller, is a type of stroller that meets the size and weight requirements set by airlines for being carried on board an aircraft. These strollers are designed to be compact, lightweight, and easy to fold, making them suitable for use in airplane cabins.

The specific regulations for cabin-approved strollers may vary depending on the airline, so it's always a good idea to check with the airline you'll be traveling with to ensure you meet their requirements. However, in general, cabin-approved strollers typically have the following features:

Size and Weight: They are designed to be small enough to fit in the overhead compartment or under the seat on an airplane. The dimensions and weight limits may vary, but they are usually more compact and lighter than standard strollers.

Foldability: Cabin-approved strollers are designed to be easily folded and unfolded, allowing for quick storage and manoeuvrability in tight spaces such as airplane aisles and overhead compartments. Some models even have one-hand folding mechanisms for convenience.

Storage and Carrying Options: These strollers often come with storage bags or travel cases to protect them during transportation. Some models may also have carrying handles or straps for easier portability.

Sturdiness and Safety: Despite their compact size, cabin-approved strollers are typically designed to be sturdy and safe for use. They should have reliable braking systems, secure harnesses or seat belts, and durable construction to ensure the safety and comfort of the child.

Remember, each airline may have its own specific requirements for cabin-approved strollers, so it's important to check with them before your flight to ensure compliance.

Our top picks for cabin approved strollers are designed to meet the needs of families who want to travel with ease. These strollers are lightweight and compact, allowing you to manoeuvre through crowded airports and fit easily into overhead compartments.

...

The basic rule of thumb is that the stroller must be compact enough to fit into the hand luggage totem provided by the airport. Failure to comply with these regulations may result in the stroller being denied entry into the cabin or being placed in the cargo hold. It is always best to plan ahead and confirm with the airline to ensure a smooth and stress-free travel experience.

Charlotte Duck

We asked Floss Guppy to roadtest the lightweight Silver Cross Clic stroller with her eight-week-old daughter Josie to see how it faired as a travel pushchair for a newborn baby. Read our in-depth review to see why it came top in our guide to the best travel strollers .

The Silver Cross Clic has much to recommend it: its one-second, one-hand unfolding mechanism, makes it a great travel stroller and it comes with a handy strap that means you can throw it over your shoulder and carry it (and your baby) when it’s folded up. ‘I could carry the pushchair and my baby at the same time so I could switch between carrying and pushing her,’ said our tester Floss. ‘She is little still, so I usually end up carrying her for a bit.’

Weighing just 6kg, even without the strap, it’s not hard to carry. It’s highly compact too and fits into the overhead locker on an aircraft. ‘It fits in the footwell of the car below my daughter's car seat, freeing up some boot space for all the other stuff Josie travels with,’ Floss added.

While it’s not cheap at over £200, it does last from newborn to four years so, especially if you have several children, you’re likely to get a lot of use out of it. Based on our tester's feedback, we named the Silver Cross Clic our best travel stroller overall in our Buying Guide because of wide age range, compact size, smart looks, and competitive price tag.

The Silver Cross Clic, our choice of the best travel stroller overall

VIEW AT JOHN LEWIS | £225.00

Age Range: Newborn to 4 years | Stroller weight: 6kg | Price: £225.00

Thoughtfully designed, the Silver Cross Clic Stroller has several innovative features that you won’t usually find on a travel buggy. ‘The thing I like most about this stroller is that you really can fold it with one hand with a baby in the other and it is then super easy to carry,’ said our tester Floss, who put the Clic through its paces on the London Underground. ‘This means that I can take the pram on the Tube, even when there are steps, as I can fold it up and easily carry both stroller and baby through the station and unfold it easily when I reach my destination.’

When folded, the Silver Cross Clic stroller is extremely compact. Floss described it as ‘hand-luggage size’ and says it's suitable for storing in the overhead locker on a plane. In terms of manoeuvrability, the Silver Cross Clic is also easy to steer. ‘The wheels manoeuvre noticeably more smoothly and in a tighter space compared to cheaper fold up strollers,’ she adds.

Comfort and features

The Silver Cross Clic is marketed as being suitable from birth and, at just eight weeks old, Josie was at a great age to test whether this is the case. ‘I was a bit nervous about the support initially but, when she was in it, I thought it was fine,’ Flozz explains. The stroller comes with a bar surround but Floss decided against using this as the five-point harness seemed sufficient and she found it harder to get her in and out with it attached. ‘[I’ll] probably add on when she is sitting up.'

While Floss found the stroller comfortable to push around, she thought that it wouldn’t suit being off-road. ‘[There’s] not much suspension so I think it would be bumpy. I don't think I'd put Josie in it off-road until she was big enough to sit up as I would worry there would be too much movement,’ she said.

This stroller comes with a reclinable seat, which Floss found especially useful as the mum of a new baby. ‘It is also really easy to adjust the seat from lying back to sitting up,’ she says. There’s also a decent-sized basket that would definitely fit a pack of nappies in, which is my test for shopping! Also, it's easy to access the basket with the seat reclined compared to a pram with a traditional bassinet.’

Value for money

At around £220, this is a pricey travel stroller. But Floss flags that it has longevity and flexibility, as well as some clever innovations. ‘It’s suitable from birth to four years and would make a good family pushchair for days out, rotating between carrying / pushing and walking for children of different ages,' she says. Floss also thinks it's a good buy for someone who is considering primarily carrying their baby, but wants the option of pushing them too, without spending large amounts of money on a traditional bassinet pram or travel system. ‘At £200 plus, it isn't really a budget buy but it would be particularly good for people looking to combine wearing their baby with occasional buggy usage.’

Silver Cross Clic review

B_for_Blog | Natural Baby Shower

New for 2023, the Silver Cross Clic is the lightweight travel stroller of dreams! A new and improved upgrade on the original Silver Cross Clic, you'll notice this stroller has had a refresh on style and colourway- featuring premium fabrics, sleek finishes and all the same travel-friendly features!

Our latest parent reviewer put the Silver Cross Clic to the test on her travels around Europe, from trains and buses to taxis and city streets - see what they had to say on this much-loved compact stroller...

Silver Cross Clic 2023 review

Parent tester - Natasha

The buggy arrived well packaged, and it only took a few snips of cables before we were good to go! My first impression of the buggy is that it looks really good quality. I especially like the sage green fabric, which looks really soft and comfortable.

Silver cross Clic parent tested

I really like that the buggy comes with a safety bar and rain cover included, as with a few of the other models that we had been looking at, these were extra purchases.I enjoy pushing the buggy around, it's a really smooth ride, which my 7 month old son seems to also be happy with. The handlebars are quite narrow, which I found strange at first, but actually, after about 10 minutes, I got used to this.

folded stroller

I was a bit worried about how he would sleep and given that he had previously only slept in his bassinet. However, the buggy can be placed in a lie down flat position so he seemed to have no problems falling asleep. My four-year-old also and has had a few trips out in this and she's she really likes it as well and I was pleasantly surprised that actually she seemed to fit in a quite well! 

In terms of folding, I am still having a bit of trouble doing it in with one hand like you see on the advert, however I'm sure after a bit of practice I'll get the hang of it. There are a couple of drawbacks that I have noted, one is if the rain cover is underneath the buggy, it's hard to fold it down without first removing it then squeezing it back in.

Silver Cross Clic train

Also, the basket is quite small, so I've found that I can only really fit the rain cover and the and his baby carrier in there and not much else. The biggest advantages of the buggy are definitely its size and weight. We have been on a couple of long train journeys and being able to fold it down and put it in the over the above compartment had been great as it was completely out of the way of everyone. 

folded storage

I've also found it really useful for and being able to carry both the baby and the buggy at the same time, especially at underground stations. If the lifts not working before it be a really big problem where I'd have to find someone who could help me carry out the buggy.

Now, I can just get the baby out, fold it down, put it over my shoulder and carry them both up the stairs! Overall, I really love the buggy, it's really made life a lot easier, especially when using trains which is something we do quite a lot.

Best Travel Strollers: Honest & Updated Reviews

Before I had my baby I thought that picking up a stroller was a simple task. With so many strollers available on the market I thought anything I get should be good to travel with, as I’ve seen many parents gate-checking their travel strollers .

When many friends warned me that I’ll need two strollers: one for home and one for travel, I didn’t believe them. Let me tell you – I was very wrong. In fact, I ended up with FOUR strollers I’ve been frequently using as my circumstances changed and ended up buying and selling a decent amount of other strollers. I didn’t research everything I needed from the beginning and was following the trends, which was a big mistake.

A travel stroller is one of the most useful things to travel with a baby .

I’m your crazy stroller lady! I’ve owned over 50 strollers, because I’m crazy about honest reviews.

I have detailed reviews on my lifestyle/parenting blog .

Best Travel Strollers in 2024

Overall winner: babyzen yoyo runner-up 1: joolz aer runner-up 2: inglesina quid best double travel stroller: zoe twin+ runner-up double: larktale caravan coupe.

When my research on travel strollers started and I quickly realized that there was no such thing as a perfect travel stroller . Every stroller had its pros and cons, and it really depends on what your child and you prefer.

The best traveling strollers are ones that are lightweight and narrow to lug around and carry, but feature extras such as a recline, a sun canopy, and a decent basket underneath.

Travel Stroller or Stroller for Airplane?

All strollers for airplanes are good for traveling, but not all travel strollers are good for the airplane.

If you’re planning on flying often, don’t think you will be exploring all day, or have older kids that might only need the stroller occasionally then consider a stroller that fits in the overhead compartment ( I created a dedicated list here ).

Travel Stroller for Infant

One big myth about travel strollers is that they can’t be used from birth. These days it’s not true, as many recline flat or offer a newborn insert.

The only strolling equipment you cannot use since birth (unless it’s car seat compatible) are stroller wagons . But, as handy as they are at home I’d only recommend traveling with the smallest ones – like Larktale Caravan Coupe, for example.

Some babies love strollers, while others prefer carriers. Some only want to sleep with a flat recline, others hate a flat recline. Some love cocoons, and others hate cocoons. Some babies are fine in a car seat, while others, like mine, hate the car seat.

You’ll want to see how you handle luggage and carry-ons on the plane and how a stroller fits or doesn’t fit, in this scenario that suits YOU.

Can a Travel Stroller Be Used Since Birth?

We started traveling with baby Dylan when he was 2 weeks old. By 4 months he flew on 20 flights, at least half of which I’ve taken solo just with him, without my partner. Most travel strollers cannot be used from birth without something extra (like an insert) and it’s recommended that you wait at least 4-6 months, as they don’t fully recline.

There are a few strollers, however, that have an option of a newborn insert or flat recline that can make them usable from birth. As great as it sounds, however, my baby basically refused any type of bassinet or cocoon by 3 months. There was no way I was able to put him in a bassinet to lie flat, so we used a reclined stroller early on.

Do You Need a Carseat Clip Option for a Travel Stroller?

Strapping a car seat into a stroller isn’t something anyone should do unless you’re in a car because it’s not healthy for a baby .

Practically though, I think it also defeats the purpose of a lightweight stroller (most car seats aren’t exactly light at all!) – I’d rather strap the car seat to my carry-on.

Various types of strollers either recline flat or offer a newborn insert, which makes them usable from birth.

However, some parents might want to have this option and it’s a fair requirement. Almost all travel strollers have a clip-on option, vs umbrella strollers mostly don’t.

Detailed Reviews of Good Travel Strollers

Babyzen yoyo+ stroller, $$$ 20′ x 17′ x 7′  (folded) / 52 x 44 x 18 cm 13 lbs / 6.2 kg.

joie tourist vs silver cross clic

For a long time there was no competition for Babyzen Yoyo, and this stroller used to be no.1 on the market. I believe it still is honestly.

As it’s on the more expensive side, I tried to avoid getting it as I thought I could easily get away with another travel stroller – just to realize I needed a Yoyo after all.

I tested it when  traveling in Italy , Greece , Poland ,  Malta , France , Mexico , Spain , El Salvador and the USA.

Its wheels, while small, are surprisingly good and there’s no need to even lift the stroller over the curb or cobblestones. I’ve also driven through mud and gravel without any issues. It’s sturdier than some other travel strollers that are actually heavier, like Joolz Aer or Bugaboo Butterfly.

It’s the only travel stroller that doesn’t fall backward with a diaper bag or another stroller hanging from it (Yoyo Connect) – even without a baby sitting in the stroller.

Many people complain about the fact that the seat recline degree isn’t flat, but it’s just the same as other travel strollers because that’s the law – super compact strollers can’t fully recline for tripping hazard . The recline is more than sufficient.

If you want Yoyo to be suitable from birth you will have to get a newborn pack or bassinet (I recommend a newborn pack over a bassinet because it folds with the stroller!).

You can now make Yoyo a double stroller with Yoyo Connect. It’s an absolute game changer as you can fold the other stroller when an older sibling wants to walk!

WARNING: There are fake Yoyo strollers sold online and known as Yoya Baby Stroller and they’re not safe or tested. Don’t buy them.

  • Fits as cabin luggage on ALL planes
  • Can be one-hand folded on the 2nd step
  • Great wheels & suspension
  • Easily maneuverable with one hand
  • Can be a double with Yoyo Connect
  • Needs additional Yoyo-only accessories (footrest, bug net, bumper bar)
  • Canopy on a smaller side
  • Basket on the smaller side, but sufficient

Would I Recommend It Overall: YES

$$ 21″ L x 17.7″ W x 8.5″ H (folded) / 53 x 44 x 22 cm 13.4 lbs / 6 kg

joie tourist vs silver cross clic

Unlike full-size Joolz strollers, in my opinion, Aer is somewhat well-designed. It has a huge canopy, enough space even for older kids and a decent basket.

It has a one-hand fold, good recline, peek-a-boo window, and other perks one might want from a travel stroller. It also includes accessories like a rain cover.

I wish the button to fold wasn’t in the middle of the handlebar as it makes things more difficult when steering with one hand.

The seat back is higher than on many other competitors and the canopy is plenty big.

Tiny planes or some regional AA flights will not fit it in their overhead bin, because of an additional inch in height, unfortunately.

I still love this stroller and it offers a bassinet for a newborn as well (only two travel strollers offer that option – another one is Yoyo).

Full review is available here .

  • Sturdy wheels
  • Easy one-hand fold & unfold
  • Lifetime warranty
  • On the pricier side
  • Doesn’t fold with bumper bar
  • Won’t fit on smaller planes

Would I Recommend It Overall: Yes

Inglesina Quid

$$ 23′ x 18.3′ x 6.8′ (folded) / 58 x 46 x 17 cm 13 lbs / 5 kg.

Fashionable travel stroller with a vibrant pattern, shown folded and unfolded, highlighting its compact and stylish design for travelers.

I rarely see Inglesina listed in the top choices for a travel stroller, but I feel like it deserves a mention because it’s honestly a good product.

It’s very similar to Uppababy Minu at a more affordable price, but folds smaller, the canopy is better in terms of flimsiness and adjustable footrest.

I used it in the US so far and I like it a lot.

You need to buy accessories because it doesn’t come with a rain cover or carry bag. There are currently no car seat attachments so there’s no way to use it with a newborn.

The recline isn’t completely flat, but almost flat and I believe no kid ever needs more than 150 degrees after getting used to it.

While the stroller is bigger than other smaller brands it might not always fit on all aircraft, you might be able to squeeze it on some but don’t always count on it.

  • Almost full-recline (adjustable levels)
  • Much more affordable than most
  • Various cute designs
  • Adjustable in-built footrest
  • Bumper bar included
  • Needs both hands to fold & unfold
  • No carseat attachment possible
  • Seat/fabric doesn’t come off so we’re still figuring out how to clean it
  • Won’t fit in overhead bin

Bugaboo Butterfly

$$ 22′ x 15′ x 9′  (folded) / 55 x 38 x 23 cm 15.8 lbs / 7.2 kg.

joie tourist vs silver cross clic

Bugaboo Butterfly is a highly anticipated and marketed replacement for the now discontinued Bugaboo Ant.

Butterly is surely an improvement from Ant, but it’s far from being a decent competitor of Babyzen Yoyo or even Joolz Aer, in my opinion.

It folds but you need a little push at the end and the carry strap gets lots in the stroller. The basket underneath is perfect with mesh sides but things could fall out through front. No issues with navigating it on uneven terrains.

I tested it when in the USA. You can read my extra detailed review here .

The seat is actually taller than Yoyo’s or most strollers and has a higher weight limit up to 50 lbs, so it’s advertised that it can be used for a child longer but as the canopy is built-in I have to disagree. For a tall child, 3.5 years is a max (as tested on my child – we also maxed out on top straps and he told me he feels uncomfortable at only 3 years, not even 3.5).

While the seat height is tall, the canopy is built-in which results in similar headspace as on strollers with lower seat back height. The recline is also less than on Babyzen Yoyo or Joolz Aer.

The wheels are durable, but the stroller is a bit heavier and bigger than Yoyo which means it won’t always fit all smaller aircrafts. But, when the stroller is folded, all 4 wheels are down, unlike in Yoyo, so you don’t get your clothes covered in dirt. The break also makes up for the wheels, as it’s easy to lock and unlock.

My other concerns with this stroller are the footrest that is harder to adjust (seems tight, especially when stroller is folded already) and smaller kids can get their feet caught in it, due to the space between fabric and material.

joie tourist vs silver cross clic

  • Amazing basket
  • Folds with bumper bar
  • Adjustable harness
  • Big extendable canopy
  • Washable seat fabric
  • Frame paint peels off easily and scratches
  • No newborn options apart from a car seat
  • In-built footrest gets in the way
  • Carry strap can block the break and often disappears inside when the stroller is folded

Would I Recommend It Overall: Not Really for this Price

BabyJogger City Tour 2

$ 22′ x 17′ x 9′ (folded) / 57 x 45 x 23 cm 14 lbs / 6.3 kg.

joie tourist vs silver cross clic

First things first – BabyJogger is a brand name and none of their strollers are jogging strollers. City Tour is the more lightweight and newer sibling of the Babyjogger City Mini GT, which I’d probably recommend more overall unless you need to exclusively for travel.

It’s smaller and sturdier than Mountain Buggy, but not as sturdy as Yoyo. It offers an almost full recline and built-in footrest, which is a huge plus. The only downside is a small canopy.

The basket is spacious, but I wouldn’t hang anything from the handlebar as it could tip over.

The seat could have more depth as it’s shallow, but not terrible. The straps aren’t super comfortable according to my child, but the younger one never complained.

  • One-hand fold
  • Many colors available
  • Near flat recline
  • Two-hand unfolding
  • Seat is a bit hard
  • Won’t fit in the overhead on some airlines

Would I Recommend It Overall: Possibly

$$ 22″ x 14″ x 9″ (folded) / 56 x 36 x 23 cm 11.3 lbs / 5.1 kg

joie tourist vs silver cross clic

Zoe Traveler+ is the most popular ZOE stroller and it’s one of the best on the market, especially if you take price into consideration.

It has all the features you might need: almost flat recline, big canopy, bumper bar, big storage.

It can also be expanded to tandem with an extra seat that can be removed easily.

The Tour+ is slightly wider with a taller seat back than Zoe Traveler, making it better for everyday use as your little one grows and you more frequently need increased storage. It’s compatible with a car seat adapter.

The basic included wheels work fine, but not as great as Yoyo or Cybex. Zoe will go through cobblestones, but not as smoothly as you might want it to go.

  • Can fit infant
  • Almost flat recline
  • Expandable to 2nd seat
  • Option of off-road wheels
  • Basic wheels aren’t amazing
  • Might not fit in the overhead

Uppababy Minu

$$$ 23′ x 20′ x 11′ (folded) / 59 x 52 x 29 cm 14.8 lbs / 6.7 kg.

joie tourist vs silver cross clic

Uppababy Minu basically replaces the bulky umbrella stroller Uppababy G-Luxe. You can’t beat their customer service if something breaks and their free repair service in the US, Canada and UK.

The fold is super easy. It folds the same way as Cybex Eezy S Twist, but it can also stand on its own.

Unfolding technically requires one hand, but you need to open a small lock on the side first, and for me it kept locking back unless I used both hands, unfortunately.

The wheels are the best and can go on any terrain. The peekaboo window has mesh ventilation and can be covered to protect the baby from the sun.

The hoods in all Uppababy products are the best of the best in terms of size, but unlike in their full-size strollers the Minu canopy is fragile and I can see it breaking easily.

One concern some parents might have about the seat is that when the child bends forward the whole seat back moves as well. It’s not a deal breaker for me (Babyzen Yoyo and Cybex Libelle do the same thing) but some parents aren’t happy about that.

If you’re a bumper bar parent like me, don’t be too excited about the Minu bumper bar that’s included with the stroller. It’s a bit of a joke, because it’s way too short it feels like an additional hard belly strap – when my baby holds it his elbows are squished all the way back (see photo below).

I’d actually say that Minu can definitely be used a main stroller as well, not just a bigger travel stroller. As it might be too big for many parents to travel with all the time, especially on planes, if you have no space in the apartment you can just get Minu instead of a giant Vista or Cruz.

  • Sturdy quality tall seat
  • Easy one-hand fold
  • High handlebar
  • Fantastic customer service
  • Bulkier than others
  • Needs both hands to unfold
  • Bumper bar is way too short

Would I Recommend It Overall: Maybe

ZOE Twin+ Double Travel Stroller

$$$ 29′ x 28′ x 9′ (folded) / 73 x 71 x 22 cm 19 lbs / 8.6 kg.

joie tourist vs silver cross clic

ZOE is still relatively narrow and extra lightweight for a side-by-side stroller. For a double, it folds fantastic and small and it’s also Disney approved stroller.

Did I mention it can also expand to a triple?

Zoe Twin is one of the strollers I never thought I’d be recommending but ended up loving it.

Switching to a double stroller when you have a toddler is a pain in the butt – not going to lie. We kept considering just getting two single travel strollers, but decided to try out Zoe and didn’t regret it.

Each seat can recline separately, the canopy is just amazing (similar to their single stroller) and there’s even a cupholder for the kid and parent.

I tested it in the USA and Mexico (read my detailed review).

  • Huge canopy
  • Cupholders included
  • Great recline
  • Won’t fit though many doors in small historic cities or Europe
  • Wheels could be better

Would I Recommend It Overall: Yes!

Contours Bitsy Compact Fold

$ 22′ x 11′ x 10′ (folded with handle) / 55 x 27 x 25 cm 12.3 lbs / 5.5 kg.

Simple yet functional black travel stroller, emphasizing its practicality for daily use.

Contours Bitsy isn’t the most popular stroller on the market, but it should be. It’s cheap and has almost everything you need.

Contours has something that many other strollers are lacking: sandal-friendly brake. While there’s no recline it has an in-built bumper bar, it’s a super compact fold fitting in the overhead.

The wheels are so maneuverable and provide a smooth ride.

  • Ultra-compact
  • One hand fold
  • Protected underneath basket
  • Sandal friendly brake
  • Seat is quite hard
  • Not everything is detachable to wash

Compact Stroller for Disney

Many parents are always looking for a stroller for Disney World since kids, even older, won’t want to walk too much and most big strollers aren’t approved for Disney.

While Disneyworld has a stroller rental service , it costs $15 and might not be everyone’s preferred choice – especially since you still need to get through the airport and to various parks. Disney rental stroller is like a giant plastic container so you might have a bit of better luck renting from an external company like BabyQuip .

Since 2019 wagons are NOT permitted at Disneyworld and Disneyland anymore either. Many parents were bringing wagons to Disneyworld, but it’s no longer possible.

Strollers larger than 31” (79 cm) in width and 52” (132cm) in length are not permitted to reduce space, so keep this in mind.

Questions to Ask Yourself Before Buying a Travel Stroller

How Much Are You Willing to Spend?

I originally refused to pay a lot for a second stroller. However, as I travel all the time I realized that I’d rather spend extra money to be able to comfortably fold the stroller and bring it with me on the plane.

You might think that a cheap stroller from Walmart is good for your trip to Disney, but keep in mind that if it breaks right after you won’t be able to use it again or sell it. It doesn’t always pay off to be cheap.

Is Taking It With You Into the Overhead Bin Important?

Personally, I hate gate-checking the stroller or car seat . After you deplane you need to usually wait forever for the stroller to be returned to you and pray that it’s not lost or destroyed .

If they even return it to you at the gate, because some airports in Europe simply don’t return it until the luggage belt. If it’s raining it might also arrive soaking wet.

Do You Need a One-Hand Fold Travel Stroller?

If you’re always traveling with your partner, one-hand fold might not be as important. However, if you’re handling your child alone , especially babies that cannot yet stand up, along with your luggage, one hand fold might become a must . For me, it was a deal-breaker.

You will need to fold your stroller and put it through the X-ray machine while going through security if you are gate checking it or taking it as hand luggage. If it doesn’t fold compactly it will need to be manually inspected and takes extra time.

One way or another, you’ll need to hold your baby and fold the stroller with one hand. Otherwise, you’ll need to hand the baby off to someone as you fold and unfold the stroller.

joie tourist vs silver cross clic

Other IMPORTANT Things to Consider:

1) If you look at any family blogs or websites with reviews you’ll see the same strollers popping up over and over again. However, every year they come up with new strollers with more improvements. 2 years ago the same stroller might not have had the same function the newer model of the same stroller has now.

Many reviews are also sponsored or gifted and then not allowed to mention flaws (you’re asked to omit the flaws and say nothing). Always look for reviews of the newest model on the market!

2)  Many all-in-one travel stroller reviews haven’t even seen the stroller they’re reviewing. I read that some fit in the overhead bin when they clearly don’t and that some recline when they don’t.

I read many complaints that apparently, the stroller I own doesn’t recline, when in fact it reclines flat. That said – make sure you’re certain about the things you need before you purchase a stroller. As you can see from the photos, I tested most strollers I’m talking about.

Which Compact Strollers Didn’t Make the Cut and Why?

SilverCross Jet – Too restricted basket, complicated fold, and not worth the price.

Summer Infant 3D Lite – While super cheap, it’s an umbrella stroller so too bulky after folding and breaks easily. Plus, double wheels are harder to maneuver.

Besrey Airplane Stroller – Double wheels hard to maneuver, no recline at all.

Jovial Portable Folding Baby Stroller – Great stroller, but the front wheels have to be unlocked manually by hand – yuck!

Kolcraft Cloud Umbrella – You get what you pay for. It tears along the sides where internal poles rub within a month and doesn’t recline at all.

Bombi Bebee – Too flimsy and too short seat space.

Best Travel Stroller Accessories

Often you can buy accessories like cup holders, bag clips, or trays to make the stroller more convenient. That, on top of the basics such as rain cover and bug net.

While many strollers already come with a bug net and rain cover, many do not – and it might not depend on the stroller, but on the place you’re ordering it from.

Even when buying on Amazon, you’ll have 10 different companies supplying the same stroller with different bundles.

The problem with many strollers is that not everything from one stroller will fit on the other. For instance, Babyzen Yoyo or Bugaboo Ant requires its own accessories because of the design and there’s no way around it (I’ve tried).

Add everything to your budget before making a final decision about the best travel strollers.

Hello Anna, love your reviews, thank you so much again. I was hesitating between Ergobaby Metro and Yoyo2. I ordered the Yoyo2 yesterday, very excited to receive it soon. There are people reviewing both and say that Ergobaby is better. Can you tell once again why you wouldn’t chose the Metro over yoyo? Many thanks 🙏

AnnaEverywhere

Monday 18th of March 2024

Ergobaby fold requires extra steps and unfolding as well. It also doesn't have a seat on the buggy board and Yoyo does. Ergo it's also sometimes a few cm too big for smaller European carriers to fit in the overhead bin :/

Tuesday 6th of February 2024

Have you tried or looked at the Delta Clutch? Seems to be pretty decent and at a price of around $100 on sale it's super affordable, and weighs less than 12lbs too.

Thursday 8th of February 2024

Yes I have. It's a very basic stroller for extremely quick escapades, because the seat is uncomfortable and not suitable for a smaller infant, but then on the other hand the max. height is 40" and to rest their head comfortably even less, so this stroller really works for an average time between 12 months to max. 2.5 years, but in our case kids were tall so truly by 2 years it was useless.

Monday 4th of December 2023

Corrected grammar: Hi, thank you very much for this. It’s very helpful to read your article. I have the uppaBaby vista stroller with all the accessories, and now that I’m planning a trip to Greece, I don’t want to take it since I love it but it’s huge. So, I'm in between buying a secondhand Yoyo+ (2019) in very good condition or a new Baby Jogger City Tour. What are your thoughts about it?

Tuesday 5th of December 2023

Honestly, both would be great options. Our Yoyo served us well for years and the bonus over it is that is that every airline knows it, so you don't need to argue about it much when taking it on board. In my situation Yoyo was a winner between these two because I could change the seat fabric when it got nasty after years of abuse and also the ride-on board for the older child offered a seat (vs BabyJogger one doesn't). Otherwise, either would serve you just fine!

Thank you for this great review! I have the Joolz aer and our first trip abroad will be when my baby is almost 4.5 months old, will we be able to use it at that age? Also at what age do you need a bumper bar? Thank you

Monday 9th of October 2023

Depends on your baby and their ability to sit and hold their head honestly. My first child was ready for the seat at 3.5 months, while my second child wasn't ready until almost 7 months. Worst case scenario you can get a bassinet that fits on Joolz Aer.

Thursday 31st of August 2023

Love all the information. What are your thoughts on the twist and shake stroller? Have you tried it?

Anna Karsten

I haven't tried it and honestly haven't even heard about it as it's not really sold anywhere outside of their own website. Just took a look at it though and the seat seems ridiculously angled to a semi-reclined position in the most upright option, so from me it would be a no,

Silver Cross Clic review

Silver Cross Clic

Silver Cross Clic at a glance

Suitable from newborn to toddler, the Silver Cross Clic is the essential, everyday pushchair that's packed full of practical features to make your daily strolls a walk in the park. Featuring a simple, one-second fold, built-in shoulder strap and one-hand reclinable seat, Clic is perfect for parents and babies.

We asked these real parent testers for their review of the Silver Cross Clic...

How did this product make your life easier?

Nikki: Getting our full pram in out and the car is a hassle and it's also so bulky, so this lightweight stroller has really helped on both fronts! It is very compact when folded down and I like the way it folds in on itself rather than an umbrella type fold. I find you can then put it on its side in the car for trips aware and still plenty of room for suitcases etc! Previously if I was just quickly popping in to the shops, I would just carry my child and always regret it as I inevitably bought more than I went in for. With this new stroller, it's no hassle just to quickly get it out of the boot and pop baby in, which my arms and back are very thankful for!

Ellie: I really like how easy to fold up this is and how small it is. Makes it much easier to fit in the boot. It’s also very manoeuvrable one-handed which is useful when walking the dog or managing more than one child. The seat must be comfortable as my previously nap averse toddler has fallen asleep easily and remained comfy while napping.

Samantha: The Clic makes my life easier as a mum because I have 3 children - the eldest walks fully, the second child walks and uses a buggy board and the youngest uses a pushchair, so getting out of the house for school runs or shopping can become a bit of a challenge, but the Clic helps so much as you can open it with one hand and pull it into place then you are ready to go, or if needs be you can carry baby in one arm and use the Clic's handy shoulder strap and it's like a handbag! It's so lightweight so you can leave the house more quickly with either option of pushchair up or folded and carrying little one. The Clic also folds down with ease so no need to mess around when loading the car or going on public transport and feeling like you're juggling the children and the pushchair. The Clic eases that stress and allows you to travel in style and ease, so no more stressful journeys for this mummy anymore thanks to Clic. I have gained time back to spend with the kids, instead of setting up pushchairs when we leave.

Would you recommend this to other parents?

Ildiko: I’d recommend to mums whom needs a quick fold stroller, something light so you can carry on your shoulder while you hold your little one. Nice to have a removable handlebar, and also the little window on the top so you can check the LO. The stroller looks super comfortable, my LO sits happily in there and also naps restfully. It uses hardly any space in the car and being lightweight it is easy to pack away.

Alice: Yes definitely, this pushchair is perfect for a trip to the shops or travelling on the train or abroad. It folds as small as a suitcase or hand luggage bag and it is fantastic that you can unfold it with 1 hand while holding your baby, plus a very convenient shoulder strap to carry it. I absolutely love my Clic. I have a little car and this fits into the boot easy with plenty of room for my shopping. It's narrow with a small turning circle and really easy to push.

Nikki: I would definitely recommend this product to friends. It allows baby to sit more upright than other strollers I have tried, which is really important for my little one who likes to see what is going on all the time however it always goes very flat for when she needs a nap. It's very easy to transport in the car and super light to lift into the car one-handed.

Would you choose this product above all others on the market?

Ellie: I think for the size and price point, this product is good. I wasn’t a fan of the colours apart from the black so I think this would be a bit limiting for me. The seat is comfortable and the basket adequate size. I do love how small it folds and how easy it is to do that - really useful when in abs out of the car and I could see it would be great for holidays too.

Samantha: In all honesty I would choose the Clic for an everyday use lightweight pushchair as it just excels in mostly all of what you could want in a pushchair,easy to push,easy to put up and take down,stylish,compact,lightweight and affordable you cannot go wrong it comes with all the strap pads,raincover and bumper bar which is lovely and the colour(aqua) is so unique and vibrant I haven't seen another pushchair in that colour before but the only concerns I do have is the safety side of the put up of the pushchair because if it doesn't click into place properly or you are in a rush and put baby in it will just collapse with baby in and it collapses really quickly too so that is very worrying that it could happen there is no safety feature in place to possibly slow down the rate of the pushchair collapsing or a stopper that could prevent such incident from occurring maybe that could be looked into maybe a new way of folding or added safety measures but all in all the clic deserves to win.

Ildiko: While there are few bits I’d improve I’d choose this stroller as a winner based on my experience. I used it on buses, restaurants even at the airport. It is easy to push, easy to fold up, easy to open up, my child sits and naps comfortable and looks very fashionable too. No need to waste time to pack it away, or take it out. It is built to last, the design is current and the material is durable.

What changes would you make to this product?

Alice: Almost everything about this pushchair is great, the only thing I struggle with is the pinch release to sit your baby back up after they've laid down. For this to work quickly and easily, you have to put the brakes on and use both hands, one to pinch the release and one to pull the cord to sit the baby back up. To be able to do this one-handed would be nice. The only other comment is that the pushchair feels a little wobbly although once you used it, you get confident with the stability. Only if you're used to a sturdy off-road buggy it takes some getting used to the flexibility which I suppose is required for such a fantastically small folding design.

Nikki: It has a little clip in the side that keeps it folded when it is down. I've forgotten to unlock this loads of times, got it out with a baby in my arms and then had to awkwardly unlock it before I could get it up. If they could ensure it stayed folded when not in use a different way that would be better.

Ellie: The hood is a good size but could be even larger. I also miss having a little window on it where I can see my child without having to walk around the buggy. I’ve found this feature really useful previously for seeing if she’s asleep and knowing how she is when we are walking along. I think it would be easy to add abs would make a good product even better.

Silver Cross Clic

The Silver Cross Clic is an April 2021 release ultra-compact stroller with an elegant, stylish edge. It makes your life easier with a full lie-flat strap recline of the non-reversible seat, the hood extended by a large sun visor, and the one-hand fold with an integrated carry strap under the seat. All that while looking sleek and stunning thanks to the patterned canopy and the matching quilted upholstery.

Even if presented as an everyday pushchair, the small wheels with not much suspension and the compact size of the folded as well as unfolded frame make the Clic best for traveling and occasional purposes.

In the three years creating Strollbery - for free, in our free time, we are proud to have helped thousands of parents from more than 207 countries. And helping is what we've cared about the most.

Being musicians as well, we created a special holiday song for you to share a wintery, Christmas vibe with us. We hope it brings you a bit of calm (we all need it). ♥️

HAPPY STROLLING AND MAGIC HOLIDAYS!

Silver Cross Clic Features & Specifications

The seat unit, the canopy (hood), the bumper bar, the suspension, the handlebar, the carrycot, the car seat, the accessories & extra features, best deals for silver cross clic, parent reviews of the silver cross clic, this pram feels so cheap like it’s going to break any second.

  • Doesn’t sit up straight
  • Frame feels flimsy like it’s going to snap
  • Pram falls over when child leans to one side
  • Not safe at all

Not sturdy at all, this pram feels so cheap like it’s going to break any second. I will not be using this again, it falls over at the slightest lean to the side from the child which resulted in my child hitting his head on the floor. Really not happy will be requesting a refund and sending this back, my advise is – I wouldn’t waste your money, there’s plenty of sturdy prams out there for the same price or cheaper!

Broke twice now

  • It’s under warranty
  • Maybe better for younger babies
  • Not good for an older toddler even though his weight isn’t over
  • Handle has broken twice now
  • The seat isn’t properly upright
  • Very lightweight where my child’s weight knocks it over

Broke twice now.

I like the look and weight but it has more downsides than I'd like

  • Lightweight
  • Unfolding is not easy (does't "click" into place)
  • Top harness belts are a wee bit too short and cannot be detached from the belly straps

We ended up returning it in the end. I like the look and weight but it has more downsides than I'd like.

Very lightweight and looks luxurious

  • luxurious-looking
  • not for too many bumps

Very lightweight and looks luxurious. We love it.

It feels like breaking any minute

Not sturdy at all, it feels like breaking any minute. Very very small basket, it is almost unusable. The handle doesn't adjust but I was happy with how tall it was.

Not stable enough in my opinion

  • The handle height
  • The style and the matching cosytoes

Very nice to push thanks to a nicely made handle with a good height. Matching footmuff available which is great as the style is so pretty. It is, however, not stable enough in my opinion. And I hate the harness straps, the buckle, and the straps' covers, they're so easy to fall off and get lost.

This is to be used with a circa 4-month-old to maybe an 18-month-old baby, no less, no more

  • small seat that is not best for newborns, unfortunately

Not good for a newborn by far. This is to be used with a circa 4-month-old to maybe an 18-month-old baby, no less, no more. I struggled with the opening and closing mechanism as well, the securing latch is a nightmare. Ended up returning it. But it looks nice...

It's so stylish

  • lightweight
  • STYLISH & unique
  • on the simpler side
  • not so much suspension
  • narrow seat

We were picking between the Clic and the Phil&Teds Go. We ended up with the Clic coz we really like it, it's so stylish! Simple but stylish, and very light...

The seat is too small for a toddler

The seat is too small for a toddler. Could be OK with a smaller baby for travel and shopping purposes.

Actually on the simple side

  • unique style
  • light and compact after folding
  • belly bar included
  • canopy features a sun visor
  • stylish buckle that IS NOT a puzzle
  • shorter seat length so best for up to 2, 2.5yo
  • canopy higher up so not too protective to a small child
  • not the best for tall parents
  • not too much suspension
  • shallow basket

It looks so stylish, but maybe a bit less so when you take a closer look at it. It's actually on the simple side. But still super flashy on the street.

Don't expect a terrain ride nor a too-long seat measurement. It is, on the other hand, very nicely small, light and compact.

Not overly great for tall dads - best for short to medium mums.

Your questions about the Silver Cross Clic

Hi, we purchased the clic stroller for my 1 yo daughter and I'm not sure about that. I like the design and the canpoy but a I feel a bit wobbly. Will it break soon? :/

I got some quite unpleasant reviews about it. It should probably not break (you never know), but it seems to be not the highest quality.

Hi, I was looking at this stroller and wondered, is the front kid bar detachable?

Hey, Lauren,

Yes, the handlebar is detachable, and also gate opens.

I must warn you, though, the stroller got some bad reviews about bing flimsy / rattly, so you may want to know that before buying it.

Joie Pact Lite

Like the Joie Tourist, the Joie Pact Lite Stroller is also an ideal choice for parents on the go. It features a one-hand fold and packs up flat, making it easy to store and transport. Additionally, it has a custom carry strap and bag for easy toting, making it an ideal choice for travel. Thus, it’s an ideal choice for parents who are always on the go.

It also includes a five-point safety harness, adjustable footrest, and a large canopy to protect your child from the elements. This is an all-weather UPF 50 canopy that’s made with water-repellent fabric to keep your little one safe from the elements. Thus, it’s great for Singapore’s weather.

This stroller is designed to provide safety and comfort for your little one while you’re out and about. The stroller features locking swivel wheels, which can tackle rough terrain, and all-wheel suspension for a smoother ride.

The stroller also has a fully reclining seat and an adjustable handle height, making it comfortable for both you and your child. It also has a large shopping basket underneath the seat, so you can bring everything you need while out and about.

The Joie Pact Lite Stroller is perfect for taking your baby on trips or just around the neighborhood. Its easy maneuverability and convenience make it a great choice for busy parents. With this stroller, you can be sure your little one will be safe and comfortable while you explore the world together.

Joie Tourist

The Joie Tourist is an innovative stroller that provides parents with a lightweight and compact alternative. The stroller is designed with a one-hand fold feature that allows parents to quickly and easily collapse the stroller for storage or transport.

It boasts a multi-position reclining seat, adjustable calf support, and a water-repellant UPF 50+ canopy to protect your little one from the sun’s harmful rays. The stroller also comes with Joie’s SoftTouch safety harness, which means that the straps won’t be uncomfortable for your baby.

This lightweight stroller has adapters that allow for easy connection to car seats and carry cots for newborns, making it a great choice for busy families. It’s also compatible with Joie car seats, giving parents peace of mind that their baby is secure and comfortable.

The Joie Tourist is perfect for parents who are always on the go, as it can be folded up quickly and easily and stored in the boot of a car. Its compact design makes it easy to maneuver and navigate through busy streets.

Joie’s Tourist stroller is designed for parents who need an easy-to-use, lightweight stroller for everyday use. It features a lightweight aluminum frame, locking swivel wheels for easy maneuvering, and all-wheel suspension for a smooth ride on rough terrain.

Pact Lite vs Tourist

The Joie Pact Lite and the Joie Tourist have a similar weight, though the Pact Lite is half a kilo lighter. The Pact Lite weighs 5.5 kg, while Tourist weighs 6 kg.

If you want a stroller that can accommodate a car seat and a cot, the Joie Tourist is the right choice. It comes with adapters that easily connect to compatible Joie car seats and cots so you can create an efficient, safe, and comfortable travel system. However, the Pact Lite does not come with these adapters.

Overall, both strollers are compact, lightweight, and easily portable. They have similar features, such as a fully reclinable seat, adjustable handles, large baskets, and a UPF 50+ canopy. Both strollers are made for travel and can make short and long trips with your baby a lot easier.

However, the biggest difference between the two is that the Tourist can be used as part of a travel system because it’s compatible with Joie car seats and cots. If you don’t have much need for a travel system and you won’t be traveling with a car seat or cot, then the Pact Lite will work just fine for you.

What to look for in a travel stroller

When looking for a travel stroller for your baby or toddler, safety should be your primary concern. Look for a stroller that has a secure harness, as well as a secure locking system to keep your child safe and secure.

Other features to look for include a comfortable seat, storage space, adjustable handle bars, and a durable frame. Additionally, consider the weight and size of the stroller when folded, as this can make it much easier to transport.

Finally, look for a stroller with a sun canopy, which will provide protection from the sun’s rays and help keep your child cool. With all these features in mind, you can be sure to find a travel stroller that is both safe and comfortable for your baby.

Frequently asked questions

What stroller is best for traveling.

The Joie Pact Lite and the Joie Tourist strollers are both compact strollers with a lightweight but durable build. They’re great for going on long and short trips because they’re easy to set up and pack up.

Is getting a travel stroller worth it?

This depends on your lifestyle. If you travel a lot, or if you often go on day trips with your baby, then a travel stroller will make things a lot easier for you. It’s designed to fold up small and is thus easy to store, and it’s also lightweight so it won’t weigh you down during your adventures.

What is a compact stroller?

A compact stroller is typically smaller and built to be lighter in weight than full-size strollers. They’re also designed to be less bulky and easier to store.

When can a baby use a compact stroller?

Babies can use compact strollers from birth, as long as the seat can recline flat. Once your baby is around 3 months old and can hold their head up on their own, you can lift the seat’s backrest up to a more upright position.

Is there a compatible parasol?

No. Unfortunately, we do not offer a parasol that's compatible with the Clic stroller.

Is there a compatible footmuff?

Yes, we do sell a matching Clic footmuff. It's water resistant and features a soft, naturally antibacterial bamboo lining to keep little ones cosy on cooler days

How is Clic different to Jet?

Clic comes in a choice of 5 colourways, all with sustainable jersey fabrics, and has an integrated pop-out shoulder strap so it can be carried if your little one wants to get out and walk or when not in use. Unlike Jet, Clic cannot be used with a car seat.

Silver Cross Jet versus Babyzen Yoyo: Which is the best travel buggy?

Photo of author

Jayne Gorman

April 16, 2020

I genuinely wondered why people put some much time and effort into buying a pushchair until I became a parent and was suddenly obsessed with the quality and efficiency of what I chose to push my kid around in.

As a travel blogger who is one part of an Aussie-Anglo couple, a travel buggy was always going to be very important to me. We took our first overseas family trip when my son was 4 months old and we headed to New York for 7 weeks. I did a lot of research at that point into the best travel strollers and pushchairs and chose the Silver Cross Jet , as it ticked all my boxes.

After just over a year of travelling with the Silver Cross Jet to 5 different countries, I decided to trade in both my Silver Cross Wayfarer pram and Silver Cross Jet travel stroller for a Babyzen Yoyo+ as we were no longer getting much use out of the pram.

I now use the Babyzen Yoyo for every day use at home and intend to take it on our travels when the world opens up again.

If you are deciding which travel stroller to buy, I hope the below sheds some some light on the pros and cons of these leading models. I think they are both excellent choices of travel buggy, and I’ve enjoyed using each of them in slightly different circumstances.

Note: This post is not sponsored. I bought and paid for both strollers and their accessories. This post does contain Amazon affiliate links.

At A Glance

Here’s a quick look at how the Silver Cross Jet and Babyzen Yoyo compare on size, price and features.

Silver Cross Jet Travel Stroller Review

Silvercross Jet versus Babyzen Yoyo - Which is the best travel stroller?

The Silver Cross Jet is the first travel stroller I bought and it literally came around the world with us in Miles’ first year. I used it every day in New York for 7 weeks and also travelled with it to Australia, Singapore and Greece, as well as on various UK trips.

I cannot fault the quality of this pushchair as we really put it to the test (carrying it onto the subway in New York and pushing it over cobbles in Mykonos ) and didn’t have any issues.

The best bits of the Silver Cross Jet include its super light weight, compact fold and the fact you can use it from birth without an insert as it lies flat completely. Miles always napped comfortably in the Jet and the fact it has some ventilation came in handy in warmer locations.

Silvercross Jet Travel Stroller

Some of its disadvantages, however, are how awkward it is to use the basket due to a metal bar in the middle of it. It’s also made from a material that is wipe clean only, which means you can’t take sections off and pop it in the washing machine like you can with the Babyzen Yoyo.

It’s biggest advantage, in my opinion though, is how it folds to the size of a small suitcase and can be wheeled like one too.

If you have multiple bags, children and equipment that you’re trying to wrangle around an airport, being able to just drag this buggy along behind you and pop it in the overheard locker is a lifesaver.

The Babyzen Yoyo also folds down small enough to store in a plane’s overhead locker, but you’ll have to carry it on your shoulder, which you may need for other things, like your children.

Review of Silver Cross Jet 2020

Personally, I find the Jet easier to fold than the Zen, and, no matter what the manufacturers say, I still need 2 hands (and a foot for the Jet) to fold them both completely.

What initially swung us on the Jet was the fact we already had a Silver Cross travel system and with some additional adaptors we could use it with our Simplicity Car Seat . It looks a little weird, I must admit, as you put the car seat on top of the stroller seat, but to have that option in New York and Singapore when we caught taxis was really handy.

Babyzen Yoyo+ Travel Stroller Review

Babyzen Yoyo+ Taupe

The Babyzen Yoyo is such a superior stroller that it doesn’t even feel like a travel buggy. From the quality of the colour packs to the 4-wheel suspension, the Babyzen Yoyo looks and feels like a luxury product and it’s an absolute pleasure to push the baby around in it. (Even the padded handlebar feels a bit swish!)

The seat on the Yoyo (compared to the original Jet) seems slightly larger and now that Miles is 15 months old he seems more comfortable in the Yoyo. Although we can’t travel at the moment, we’ve used this buggy every day since I bought it 3 months ago.

The basket is very generous for a travel stroller and while it also has supporting bars they are slightly less obstructive than on the Jet. You also have additional storage on the Babyzen as there are handy pockets in the hood and on back of the seat, which mean I don’t need to hang a stroller organiser from the handlebars like I did with the Jet. (I like that I can zip my phone and snacks out of sight from the toddler!)

I also love the idea that you can buy a new colour pack and completely change the look of the buggy should you get bored of it further down the line. It seems like a good way of giving it a fresh lease of life if used for consecutive children!

Babyzen Yoyo footmuff taupe

As mentioned previously, you can take off the seat pad and hood for the Yoyo and pop them in the wash at 30 degrees, so I think it will be easier to keep clean than the Jet, which is wipe clean only.

Both the Yoyo+ and Yoyo2 can take a bigger maximum weight than the Jet too, so it’s got a longer shelf-life overall.

The Babyzen Yoyo has a couple of matching products you can buy, including a parasol, footmuff, bag and newborn insert – they all look great and add additional functionality but don’t come cheaply. I bought the footmuff and loved how cosy it kept Miles in the winter. It retails at around £100 but certainly feels like a quality product and fits the pram beautifully.

joie tourist vs silver cross clic

The Yoyo’s major negative is that you can’t use the buggy from birth without a newborn pack , which comes at the additional cost of £190. Mums who have one told me that it doesn’t feel too sturdy, so it might be ok for occasional holiday use but not everyday strolls and naps. If you’re shopping for a child that is 6 months or older, however, this won’t be an issue. If you have more than one child then the Yoyo+ Wheelboard will be a real bonus.

Silver Cross Jet versus Babyzen Yoyo: Which is best?

I would honestly recommend both of these travel strollers. I did a lot of research before buying each of them and they have both served their purpose and more.

The Silver Cross Jet is a great option if you intend to use the buggy just for travel. It’s the best travel stroller for taking to the airport and the only complaints I have about it (with regards to non-washable materials and size of the shopping basket) won’t be an issue with occasional use.

If you are looking for an everyday pushchair, however, which has the added benefit of being small enough to take on a plane, you can’t go wrong with the Babyzen Yoyo. I bought the Yoyo to replace my Silver Cross Wayfarer pram and I’ve found it far more practical to take to shops, cafes and restaurants as it fits easily in small corners and takes up only a tiny portion of the boot space. We store ours in our hallway at the moment and even though I went for a non-practical taupe colour pack, it looks as good as the day we bought it.

I hope you found this useful if you’re in the process of buying a travel buggy. I’m happy to answer any questions in the comments if there’s something you want to know that I haven’t covered.

Best home renovation tv shows to binge-watch now, 11 thoughts on “silver cross jet versus babyzen yoyo: which is the best travel buggy”.

Dear Jayne Thank you so much for stating the differences between the 2 strollers however i am wondering if its possible for the yoyo2 to lay completely down as it is with the silvercross? Thank you much in advance

Hi Niaz, the Yoyo reclines but not fully flat like the Jet which is why you may need a newborn insert for the Yoyo prior to 6 months.

Dear Jayne Thank you for the quick reply. My son is 11 months and it would be nice if the yoyo could lay flat i guess?

Hi – thanks for this review. Those are two strollers I’m looking at! Are you comparing the Babyzen yoyo2 to the Silver cross jet 2020? If not, how do you think the 2020 compares / would affect your recommendations?

Hi Elyssa, I was comparing the Yoyo2 and original Jet and my recommendations haven’t changed since using the Jet 2020. The Yoyo still provides more storage but the Jet is still handier for travelling with. Hope you get a good deal on whichever one you go with. Best, Jayne

Trust you are well Which stroller would you recommend for daily use for baby to nap in and as a travel stroller for baby to sleep overnight as well

Do you mean a newborn? I would recommend the Babyzen Yoyo with the newborn insert if you’re looking fora bassinet for the baby to sleep in.

Great review! Do you still use your simplicity car seat? We have the wayfarer with simplicity car seat but thinking of buying yoyo2. Im wondering if there’s a way to fit the car seat on to yoyo stroller.

My understanding is you can’t use a car seat with the Yoyo, at least I never found a way! The Simplicity is compatible with the Silver Cross Jet although you do need specific adaptors.

Thanks for the review! How do you compare the hoods of the two strollers – which provides more shade? Thanks!

Dear Jayne, my dayghter will be soon 5 months and we are looking for a stroller that we can use everyday and when travelling (specially by planes).

Thus, I have 2 questions.

1) For the everyday use, to take her to the daycare for example and back to work and to go to coffes and restaurantes…what would be your reccomendation? Taking into consideration that we will mainly walk and/or use public transport.

2) For travelling (airplane/train), can both fit as cabin luggages? which is the most easy to handle? Also, we normally travel to cities that can have some challeging terrain/landscape, so we need a stroller that can take the challeange, rsrs!

In addition, if we choose the yoyo, as she is already 5 months and 7kg, do you think we still need the newborn set ?

For last, just as a note when we go out with the car, or if we need a stroller more “important” we will use our uppabbay cruz, that goes with our uppababy car seat 🙂

Thank you very much in advance.
