Lightweight

If you're traveling with children, it's important to have a lightweight pushchair. It's easier to transport and take up less room in your home. It will also be more maneuverable on a train, plane or bus. It is recommended to have a pushchair with an ample basket that can hold plenty of clothes as well as other essentials. It should come with lockable swivel casters that can take on rough and smooth terrain.

One of the best lightweight holiday cheap pushchairs for sale we've tried is the Babyzen Yoyo2. It features a compact and curved frame, with a high-quality monochrome fabric. It comes with a thick and hooded hood to protect your child from the sun and a cup holder for drinks. It can also be folded using only one hand. It is available in grey, black or red, and is priced at a reasonable price.

Easy to Manoeuvre

A light travel buggy is ideal for those who are on vacation or just want something light to use at home or when visiting family. There are plenty of options, including ones that come with a range of extras, including baby bassinets and a rain cover, or toddler legrest to ensure that their legs don't hang. They may feel a little fragile because they have a shorter frame and a simpler suspension than buggies that are larger. However our MFM testers found that all were manageable.

A well-constructed, lightweight holiday pushchair will be easy to maneuver and come with an ample storage basket so you can carry a lot of necessities with you.

It's a big plus if you travel alone to be able to fold and unfold the stroller using just one hand. You'll also need a stroller that can climb and descend stairs and on and off elevators.

We love the fact that this is so easy to open and close, regardless of whether you're in a rush or if your hands are full of kids. It's also a remarkably comfortable pushchair to drive and recline feature is easy for young children to use. However, it lacks the extra support that a bassinet or carrycot provides for newborns and is not suitable for use as a buggy for travel.

In our testing, it was easy to maneuver and tackled cobbles and bumpy roads as well as some massive kerbs. It was quite sturdy for a lightweight and compact buggy. The only downside was that the seat couldn't recline, but as it's intended for travel this isn't a huge deal. The handle bar was fixed at a very high level, and was not extremely adjustable. However, it was comfortable for both tall and short adults in our tests.
