Umbrella strollers

Can you recommend an umbrella stroller? I have a toddler and sometimes want to use a lighter stroller plus for travel. Thanks.

Umbrella strollers

We have the uppababy gluxe and love it. Super lightweight, easy to fold, big sunshade and it reclines

Re: Umbrella strollers

I got the g luxe and noticed the back of the seat leans back. Does your little ones find that hard or frustrating? I noticed my son kept straining his neck to hold his head up. It looks like a great stroller but that is my only concern.

Yeah this annoyed me and DD too. I hate that it doesn't go all the way forward.

This makes me so sad. I just bought the g-lite bc I hate the city mini for that reason. I tried it out at buy buy baby and she seemed okay. I have had no luck with strollers. I hate them all.

You will be ok. The g lite sits up. It just does not recline at all. That was why I got the g luxe so it would have the option to recline in case my son falls asleep. But the back does not sit up straight when it's in the sitting position. I went to look at the g lite today and it's nice but I want to have the reclining option. I am thinking of getting the Maclaren quest. It sits up more than the g Luxe. But the cool feature in the uppas is they stand up on their own when closed. So I am still deciding. Good luck. You made a good choice.

We went with the Uppa G Lite. DS can sleep in it fine...and it is $100 less. The stand-up feature is great!

How old is your child? Does their head fall when the fall asleep? I looked at this one and was going to order it and was concerned about the recline. So anymore advice would be appreciated.
Thanks

Maclaren quest. 3 position recline and the foot rest pulls up. Very light weight and compact.
