Cheap Single Pushchairs

The Babyzen Yoyo stroller is a excellent choice if you're on a budget and don't require a stroller that can be used as car seat carriers. It comes with a flip-flop-friendly one-step footbrake.

It's also a breeze to push and feels sturdy when navigating kerbs or woodland pathways. It's also a breeze to fold.

1. Babyzen YOYO2

The Babyzen YOYO2 has earned itself a reputation as the most lightweight single seater buggy for sale for jet-setters and city dwellers alike, thanks to its super nimble manoeuvrability and foldable design that can be tucked away in the overhead luggage of an aeroplane. The latest version comes with independent suspension on all four wheels made from Hytrel elastomer to 'perfectly navigate through all kinds of surfaces and terrain'.

The bent fabric bassinet, the base YOYO2 frame and 6months of colour pack come together to create a stylish pushchair that has a soft, elegant aesthetic. The frame's base weight is less than a kilo, and is so light you can lift it out of the box with one hand.

The hood, for instance is able to snap onto the YOYO2 in a reassuring way. It is machine washable at 30 degrees which helps avoid the stains that result from smushed carrot puffs and rice cakes. The Newborn Pack and bassinet can be used from birth as a pram. It could also be converted into a stroller after 6 months using the YOYO connect other chassis.

2. Evenflo Pivot Xplore

Evenflo Pivot Xplore stroller wagon is a great option for parents seeking an adaptable stroller. It transforms from a stroller to wagon just by flipping the handle, so parents can pick the option they want to use on their adventure. The wagon can hold one or two children from 6 months old to 5 years, and it comes with a large storage basket to accommodate everything you need on the go.

The Xplore has two canopies that rotate from front-to-back, providing adequate sun protection for all family members. It has a smaller footwell than some wagons. This might not be ideal for long drives or naps.

The frame of the Xplore wagon feels solid and sturdy but it doesn't bend as much as other wagons we tried. It is also more difficult than other wagons to fold, and does not lock tightly after folding. It is easy to maneuver however, and is able to fit through narrow 28 inches doors.

3. Delta Children LX Side-by-Side

This Delta Children bare-bones travel stroller is a great choice for parents who are looking for a second stroller that is affordable. It scored well in our Strollers and Multiples Test for its weight and folded dimensions, which means it's lightweight and compact when folded and easy to carry and put into a car trunk. It also has a multi-position reclining seat and a parent cup holder. Other important features include 360-degree shock absorbing front wheels as well as two large storage bags that hang from the ceiling.

In our test of push and turn, it did better than many of the other strollers that we tried, but it's not the most comfortable to maneuver over uneven ground or through narrow doorways. Its sunshades are among the smallest we tested, offering only direct overhead coverage and no peekaboo windows. The UPPAbaby G-Link 2 has a significantly larger canopy.

It took us less than 3 minutes to put together the Delta with a manual. The parts are all non-required and required tools. However, it's missing some essential features that we believe you should consider non-negotiable in a double stroller like a large basket and reclining seats with adjustable leg rests.

4. Maxi-Cosi Zelia 2-in-1

The Zelia is Maxi-Cosi's newest pushchair and is marketed as an urban travel system. It can be used from birth until 3.5-years-old. The carrycot and seat can be easily converted in just a few clicks. It can be used with Maxi-Cosi capsule car seats and comes with the lightweight Mico 30 infant car seat, stay-in-car base, and a reversible car.

It is really easy to maneuver, and the one-hand reclining of the seat as well as the super large shopping basket make it simple for parent-tots to get the child in and out quickly. Despite being a small pushchair, it was able to handle the bumps of everyday life well and was able to pass through doorways without fuss.

The front wheels can to be locked in a forward direction and can also swivel. This is helpful in rough terrain. While walking along the stony path we let them move and it handled this fairly well although it did seem slightly bumpier than other models in our test.

5. Baby Jogger City Tour 2

Baby Jogger is famous for their all-terrain, 3-wheeler pushchairs for jogging, but they also have a wide selection of 4-wheel strollers. The City Tour 2 is one of their most popular models. It is easy to use and folds small enough to fit into a car boot even with the carrycot attached.

It's a bit heavier than other strollers we tested but the wheels are a rubber composite, which makes it feel well-built and durable. It is easy to maneuver on different terrains and even with two children, a shopping bag and other items.

The seat and carrycot both have hoods that can be pulled down to reveal UV50+ sun canopy extensions. They are strong and waterproof, unlike other hoods for prams, which can be blown back onto toddlers' faces.

It's not a lot of storage space, however it does have a big basket that's deep enough for a changing bag as well as plenty of groceries. You can also pair it with a Baby Jogger car single seat buggy for infants up 20 lbs (car seat and adapters are sold separately). If you need a stroller that can be used on the road, the City Tour 2 is an excellent option.

6. Nuna Mixx Next

When the Nuna Mixx first appeared on the scene, it stole the hearts of parents across the world. It's an aluminium framed stroller that will see you through your baby's initial days and beyond. It comes with a variety of distinctive features like the possibility of flipping the seat to be parent-facing and world-facing, a large UPF 50+ canopy, a flip out eyeshade, a spacious basket and adjustable handlebar.

The chassis is equipped with a built-in suspension system that helps reduce the impact of bumpy terrain. The wheels are made of tough foam and reduce punctures. Our tester found it to be smooth to push and was able to manoeuvre it through tight streets with ease.

It locks automatically and folds in just four steps. It also stands and can be trolleyed for easier transport in the boot of your car or down the stairs at home. It also comes with a travel system equipped with the ability to add a car seat and a carrycot using the included adaptors. The brakes are easy to use, using a Single gb stroller colored and flip-flop-friendly.

7. Babyzen Duet

This budget pushchair single is easy to use and has a great dual suspension. It folds by one hand and comes with a convenient carrying strap. It's also super lightweight and sturdy. The seat can be reclined into a variety of different positions. It also comes with a double breathable mattress that's suitable for babies.

The canopy/seat comes with two big sun visors that are either fixed or flipped out. Both are UPF50+. The toggle closure isn't the best because it's not as quiet as Velcro and could wake up napping babies.

The Duet is a stroller that can be used side-by-side and can be configured to accommodate twins or other siblings (up to a maximum of 22kg per seat). It is compatible with two infant car seats and even works with some carrycots. In twin mode seats, the seats can be positioned so that they face each the other. They can also be oriented to face the parents. This can help to lessen sibling fights over who gets seated with mom and dad. It comes with a big tray for gears with a bottle holder as well as snack tray. It also has an automatic frame lock and a superior compact fold.

8. Baby Jogger Urban Glide 2.

The Thule Urban glide 2 is the perfect stroller for parents who like to be active. It's among the lightest strollers you can purchase for your child. It also comes with great safety features like a 5-point harness as well as a safety wrist strap. It also comes with a twist hand brake that's different from the lever type found on competing models.

The seat is padded and provides a wide area to sit. However, the seat isn't as deep as those of other joggers (it's just 10 inches deep") The storage bin comes with an open-top cover that can be closed to keep items safe. It can hold 10 lbs. This is enough for the majority of diaper bags.

The Urban Glide 2 doesn't come with adapters to fit most bassinets and car seats for infants however, you can use them from the first day with adapters that will fit brands such as BOB, Graco Combi Evenflo Britax UPPAbaby. It folds down compactly and takes 5-10 minutes to assemble with no tools. The user manual is easy to read and is available in multiple languages.
