YOYO+

We wanted the features that tend to be exclusive to high end strollers, but didn’t want to pay for the high end seats that are compatible with them. We ended up getting a Graco GoMax system (baseless infant seat and stroller frame - no toddler seat) for less than the price of a high end car seat and planned to get a Joolz Hub. However, I scored a Babyzen Yoyo+ and Thule Urban Glide 1 for $20 apiece on Facebook marketplace instead. So instead of a car seat on wheels plus a high end hybrid stroller, we have a car seat on wheels and 2 used high end strollers on opposite ends of the spectrum lol. I think it will work well for us!

I remember when I was looking at strollers I had to narrow down the variables I was comparing, and at the time for me it was weight because we lived in a second floor walk up. So I searched for which stroller was the lightest weight and we ended up with the YoYo+

Parisian with kids too. Everyone here use a Yoyo+, they are smoll enough you can pass the turnstile with the kid in it, you can fold them and carry them if needed (you may see a demo of a mother or father holding their kid in one hand and unfolding the stroller in a single move of the other hand), you can carry them kids included in the metro stairs. It's not always convenient, it require a good physical condition, and during peak time you may not be able to use the public transportation at all. Take a stroller as small as the Yoyo+, or don't take one as it would be more a burden than anything.

We have got two stroller aged kids, and have the following set up: My wife’s car: a yoyo and a joolz aer, with a doona car seat that converts into a stroller (she uses it as a stroller when the baby is sleeping so she doesn’t have to pick him up and put him on a stroller). My car: mama’s and papas (its bigger and more rugged than the yoyo and the julez, heavier so good for outdoors and placing heavy bags on them without tipping over) and we can attach a bike on to it that acts as a second stroller. Car seat in my car is cybex.

So I went to the store, set on buying either the butterfly, the yoyo or the minu. Once I saw the products I was somewhat disappointed and bought a regular stroller with fantastic wheels and springs. Great canopy and other useful and comfortable features. We also planned to travel a lot which is why we thought about the one and done travel stroller, but to put in perspective, we go out for walks twice a day. And that's not counting the days we actually have destinations to go to. I cannot imagine going through all the terrain we did with just a travel stroller. My vote is to get a regular stroller, and then look for a travel stroller second hand. (Well actually if you find a good deal, a second hand main stroller is fine too). What I would not cut the budget on is the car seat, get that new.
