7 Things About Cheap Single Pushchair You'll Kick Yourself For Not Knowing
Cheap Single Pushchairs
The Babyzen Yoyo stroller is a excellent choice if you're on a tight budget and don't need an extra stroller that can be used as car seat carriers. It has a flip-flop friendly one-step footbrake.
It's also a breeze to push and feels solid when navigating kerbs or woodland paths. It's also easy to fold.
1. Babyzen YOYO2
The Babyzen YOYO2 has earned a name as the ultimate light-weight buggy for city dwellers and jet-setters alike, due to its nimble maneuverability and fold-down that fits into the overhead luggage of an aeroplane. This latest version features independent suspension on all four wheels comprised of Hytrel elastomer. This allows it to 'perfectly traverse all terrains and types'.
The bent fabric bassinet, the base YOYO2 and the 6+ months colour pack combine to create a chic pushchair with a subtle, elegant aesthetic. The frame itself weighs just over a kilogram and is so light that you can easily lift it from the box (and do so one-handed).
It's also easy to attach or remove attachments, adaptors, or adaptors - the hood, for example, snaps onto the YOYO2 by clicking - as well as being machine washable at 30 degrees to help deter staining from rice cakes that have been smashed and half-dissolved carrot puffs. It can be used as a pram from birth using the Newborn Pack or bassinet, or converted into stroller at 6 months old by clicking on the YOYO Connect additional chassis.
2. Evenflo Pivot Xplore
The Evenflo Pivot Xplore is a great choice for parents who are looking for a stroller that can be used in a variety of ways. The Evenflo Pivot Xplore can be transformed from a stroller into the wagon by turning the handle. Parents can then choose which one is the best fit for their needs. The wagon can accommodate one or two children from 6 months to 5 years old. It has a huge storage basket that will hold all your necessities when you are on the move.
The Xplore also has two canopies that rotate from the front to the back, offering ample sun protection for all family members. It has a smaller footprint than other wagons. This isn't suitable for long journeys or naps.
The frame of the Xplore wagon feels solid and sturdy but it doesn't bend as much as other wagons we tested. It is also more difficult to fold than many of the competitors and it doesn't secure when folded. It is easy to maneuver, though, and it can fit through narrow 28-inch doors.
3. Delta Children LX Side by Side
This basic double stroller from Delta Children is an excellent option for parents who want an affordable, second-hand travel stroller. It scored a dazzling score in our Strollers & Multiples test for weight and size folded, which means it's very light, compact when folded and easy to put into a trunk of a car or closet. It also comes with an adjustable reclining seat that can be positioned in several positions as well as a parent cup holder. Other key features include two large storage bags that hang from the ceiling and 360-degree shock-absorbing front wheels.
In our push and turn test it performed better than many of the other cheap strollers we tried, but it's not the most maneuverable over uneven ground or through narrow doorways. Its sunshades are among the smallest we tested, offering only direct overhead coverage, and no windows that peek out. The UPPAbaby G-Link 2 and Zoe Twin+ have much larger canopies.
best single stroller Pushchairs And Prams took us just under 3 minutes to put together the Delta with a standard manual. The parts are all non-required and required tools. But, it's lacking some essential features that we believe it is important to consider as non-negotiable features 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 latest pushchair and is marketed as a travel system for urban use. It is designed to accommodate infants from birth until around 3.5 years, converting easily between a carrycot and seat with a few clicks. It can be used with Maxi-Cosi capsule car seats and comes complete with the lightweight Mico 30 infant car seat, a stay-incar base, and a reversible car.
The seat reclines with one hand and the large shopping basket makes it simple for parents to help their child in and out. Despite this being quite narrow, the pushchair handled the everyday bumps well and slid through doors without fuss.
The front wheels can to be locked in a forward position or swivel. This is useful in rough terrain. When we walked along the stony path we let them swivel and it performed well, though it did appear slightly bumpier than other models in our test.
5. Baby Jogger City Tour 2,
Baby Jogger is known for their three-wheeled, all-terrain jogging pushchairs, but they also make a good range of 4-wheeler strollers. The City Tour 2 is one of their most popular models. It is simple to use and folds down small enough to fit in a car boot even with the carrycot attached.
It's a little heavier than other strollers we tried, but the wheels are a rubber composite, so it feels sturdy and durable. It is easy to maneuver across various terrains and even with two children as well as a shopping bag and other things.
The seat and carrycot both have hoods that can be pulled down to reveal UV50+ sun canopy extensions. They are sturdy and waterproof, in contrast to other hoods for prams, which can be blown back into toddlers' faces.
It's not the biggest of storage space, however it does have a large basket that's deep enough for a changing bag and plenty of groceries. You can also connect it with a Baby Jogger infant car seat to create a travel system for babies as big as 20 lb (car seat and adapters sold separately). If you are looking for a stroller that is able to be taken on the road, the City Tour 2 is an ideal choice.

Nuna Mixx was a stroller that won the hearts of many parents when it first came out. It is an aluminium-framed stroller that can be used from baby's first days to beyond. It is a standout model with many unique features, including the capacity of the seat to be turned between parent and world facing and a huge UPF50+ canopy with an eye shade that flips out, and an adjustable handlebar.

7. Babyzen Duet
This budget-friendly pushchair is simple to operate and features a fantastic dual suspension. It can be folded by one hand and comes with a handy carrying strap. It's also lightweight and robust. The seat can be reclined into many different positions. It also comes with a double breathable mattress that is suitable for infants.
The canopy/seat comes with two big sun visors that can be either fixed or flipped out. Both are UPF50+. The toggle closure isn't ideal because it's not as quiet as Velcro, and can awaken napping babies.
The Duet is a side-by-side stroller and can be adapted to take twins or siblings (up to a maximum of 22kg per seat). It is compatible with two infant car seats and some carrycots. In twin mode the seats can be placed so that they face each the other. They can also be oriented to face the parents. This should reduce sibling arguments about who sits with dad and mom.

The Urban Glide 2 doesn't come with adapters that will fit the majority of bassinets and infant car seats however, you can use them from the first day with adapters that fit brands such as BOB, Graco Combi Evenflo Britax UPPAbaby.
