Most travel strollers have pull tabs to recline, you can choose any recline level between flat and upright. We have the yoyo and it’s great! If she’s slouching you could always roll a hand towel between her and the crotch buckle.

We have the yoyo apart from the small basket it’s great! Prefer it over my vista, that thing is way too heavy

The Ergobaby metro is on sale right now. We have a yoyo though and love it! My toddler has never had any problem napping in it.

We love our Yoyo. Initially got one second hand to save money but 2.5 years later needed to buy a new frame. I found a good price on an open box, new Yoyo2 frame at GoodBuy Gear (I have no affiliation with them). Definitely consider that option! I found the Minu to be heavy in comparison. Joolz Aer is also a good option. Go to a store like Albee Baby or MiniJake to try out different models.

My sister has Joolz aer+ and I have the yoyo2 . I am so in love with the yoyo so I would advice for that one. I really cannot live without it and it's my main stroller as well, I had a heavier one that I just couldn't deal with lol The best thing besides getting really small and lightweight? I only need one hand, it's that easy to move around

So we have a yoyo2 and guava roam. The yoyo was our only stroller for almost the first year, used first with the bassinet. Now at almost 2.5, we still use it for travel and always keep it in the car so anytime we go on a walk somewhere else, we use it unless we know we'll need the guava for the bigger wheels. The yoyo is so great bc it's really small but high quality, fits in 99% of overhead bins on planes and takes up such a small amount of room in the car. Unless we're on a bumpy/muddy trail, it does fine. The guava roam I love and recommend to everyone if you have space! It allows kid to sit fully upright which mine really likes. So many strollers recline no matter the setting. It's also super smooth and has a big basket. I would consider what you want in a stroller, and maybe do another post looking for recs based on that! I will say for many people, having a regular stroller and a travel stroller ends up being the best bet.

we have a yoyo stroller and a guava roam stroller and both work for both of us (5'4 and 6'1.) My friend is 5' and also loves her yoyo. I think most strollers would be fine.

I love the yoyo too! I know people complain about the fold but once you do it a couple times it’s super easy. It’s a great stroller that we still use at age 2.5.

We used a yoyo as our only stroller for a solid year! Eventually I got a jogging stroller bc I wanted to walk in the woods / bike path more but it was totally functional to only have the yoyo and we still use it a lot.

I love our guava roam and recommend it, but also have a yoyo for travel or when I don’t have a lot of trunk space and want a stroller. The pair has been wonderful.

We have a yoyo and while I haven’t used it on cobblestones, everyone in Paris has one so I assume it’s fine. I’ve used ours on bumpy sidewalks, in snow, etc, and the wheels are definitely a little more functional than some other small strollers. The fold takes a little getting used to but people are dramatic about it being hard. It isn’t. I love it and have used it heavily for 2.5 years.

We used the yoyo as our only stroller for a solid year. Definitely doable!

We have the yoyo which I keep in my car almost always in case we need it, and travel with it. We used it as our only stroller for maybe 9-12 months and then got the guava roam because I wanted to be able to walk in the woods and unpaved bike path. The yoyo still works almost always and I love that it’s small enough to keep in the car, but on our daily walks we use the guava one now. I’m definitely super happy to have both!! Can’t see the need for more than two though.

We have the guava roam and love it! I think it’s a great choice. We didn’t have when my first was little but I think you can get car seat adapters for it? Not positive. Our second stroller is a yoyo and we used that with the bassinet in the beginning. If you wanted a second stroller I’d encourage you to get something like that that can be used for travel so you don’t feel like you’ve bought something for just the beginning.

Yes! From their ads I felt like it was gonna be so small but I’m 5’5 and my partner is 6’1 and we’re both very happy with it. Practice the fold a few times at home to get the hang of it, but otherwise it’s a really great stroller and we absolutely love it 2.5 years in.

I like my YOYO for the sturdiness,size and handling,but it’s a one handed open,two handed close - awkward if you’re carrying a bunch of stuff. Also sits slightly reclined so if your kid likes being super upright they may not enjoy it.

Depends on you. Many people have 2. One for everyday, which is a full sized stroller with all bells and whistles, and 2nd is a travel stroller which is very compact but is great for traveling, or fitting into small cars. For almost 2 yrs my wife and I got by with 1 full sized stroller. We never really travel except by car, and the stroller fits both of our vehicles, however it takes a chunk of space...about 2 months ago we ended up getting a 2nd stroller which is a compact travel stroller, but we didnt need it. We only got it because we found it on sale at TJ Maxx for like 50% off. It was a babyzen yoyo2. We immediately jumped on it, and now we keep a stroller in each vehicle..and now we have the compact one in case we ever travel far. The space the travel stroller takes is so minimal compared to the other. Some parents opt to just use a travel stroller as the full time stroller. Its small, lightweight, so why not. Again it all comes down to you and where/when you use the stroller.
