Bēbee V2 Lightweight Stroller

We have a Bombi Bebee V2 and it has been the best decision! It’s incredibly lightweight like I can carry my 36lb toddler and the stroller downstairs together no problem, it’s got a very easy one hand fold/unfold. We live in the New England area so snow has happened almost every day and we’ve had zero issues and that’s with the basic wheels we do plan to upgrade to the bigger wheels they sell but for now we’re fine. It has plenty of storage, an extra large canopy, you can get lots of different accessories often on sale or part of a bundle (highly recommend the snack tray). I would also suggest checking out The Stroller Mom on YouTube she breaks down all the travel strollers and she often has discount codes!

I would have gotten the Bombi Bebee V2! It fits multiples different car seats and is incredibly lightweight and compact, we got one for our daughter before she turned 1 and it’s been the best stroller ever!!!

It doesn’t have a bassinet unfortunately, we actually only used our bassinet once I wasn’t a fan and neither was baby. Obviously that’s a personal preference though, I would check out The Stroller Mom on YouTube she does great honest reviews of literally every stroller, that’s how I discovered the Bombi. If by chance your interested in more lightweight compact strollers I would check out Joie strollers and Zoe strollers I believe both of them either have bassinet attachments or the stroller fully reclines flat and is set up to transform into a bassinet!

Check out the Bombee V2! It’s lightweight, compact and has an awesome easy one hand fold and unfold. We took ours on our first family trip last summer and with the car seat, 2 suitcases, cooler, bag of toys and the stroller we still had plenty of room!

We’re one and done so don’t need a double but if we had 2 kiddos and we’re going to Disney I would 100% want a double stroller. I will look into the Bombi Bebee twin stroller or the Zoe The Twin stroller, they’re both lightweight strollers that fold up compact so perfect for travel but are rugged for everyday use. We have the Bombi Bebee single stroller for our daughter and we love it!!! I would also suggest you check out The Stroller Mom on YouTube she does several videos on the best strollers for Disney and she usually has discount codes as well!

A few things have helped me travel with my now 11mo! We have done 2 trips on planes now (12 hour flight to Hawaii and 1 hour flight to Pittsburgh) and these have been a few things that helped: * **Gate checking your stroller/car seat** \- for Hawaii we gate checked our stroller (car seat was on plane seat that we bought for baby) and Pittsburgh we gate checked stroller and car seat (baby was lap infant). The stroller was nice because we could throw coats/purses/bags in the bottom. Then in the airport baby was either in the stroller with car seat attached or in a carrier on me and the stroller was pushed by me and my husband handled our 2 carry-on spinners. * **Having a smaller stroller with snack tray** \- I learned this after Hawaii where our Chicco Corso stroller didn't have a snack tray and was large. After that trip, I got the [Bombi Travel Stroller](https://bombigear.com/collections/strollers/products/bebee-lightweight-travel-stroller) with the snack tray attachment and it has been amazing. Easy to feed baby on the go in the stroller, at restaurants where there isn't a highchair, or to breakfast in our hotel room in the morning. It also came with a bag which made gate checking super easy. * **Baby wearing** \- I can't recommend this enough! Baby wearing makes travel so much easier. While we still use a stroller, most of our outings I just wore my baby in my [Happy Baby OG carrier](https://happybabycarriers.com/products/original-baby-carrier). Once my baby fits size 2T pants, I'll get the Happy Baby Toddler carrier. Super lightweight and compact, and my baby can be on my front or back. There are also lots of other light weight carriers and brands out there, as well as second hand carriers!

I personally love our Bombi travel stroller. Comes with a bag and we also purchased the snack tray and infant car seat strap.

So I have a stroller dilemma for our next trip to Washington D.C. (and any other future trips) with our almost 2yo toddler. I’ve been able to just babywear him in the past and skip a stroller, but our trip last month to New Orleans I got a cheap umbrella stroller while we were there because it was getting to be a lot to back wear my 27lb kiddo for miles every day. It was honestly a life saver! But my question is - what should I do for our upcoming trip to Washington D.C.? I have a Bombi travel stroller which is a great, compact stroller with lots of features. My main concern however is handling this stroller on public transit. We aren’t staying right in DC so we need to take the subway into town. I could manage with this stroller, but I’m wondering if having a lighter weight stroller (like an umbrella stroller) would actually be better since I could back wear my toddler and hand carry the stroller if going up/down stairs or needing to move quickly, which I wouldn’t really be able to do with the Bombi. So my multiple questions are… \*\*1) Do I bring my cheap $15 Walmart umbrella stroller instead of the Bombi?\*\* It doesn’t maneuver very well, but it gets the job done, and is super light weight. \*\*2) Get a nicer umbrella stroller (preferably one that is $100 or less)? If so, what strollers do you recommend?\*\* I was looking at some other brands, like the Jeep one, which is nice because it has storage that I can toss my purse into and a sun hood (the Walmart one doesn’t). But I’m not sure if it will still be frustrating to maneuver or if it is worth getting yet another stroller. \*\*3) Bring the Bombi?\*\* It will definitely be the nicest stroller to push, but will be difficult to hand carry with my toddler due to the stroller’s weight and bulk (even though it is more compact than full sized strollers). I can always find elevators/accessible routes, but I like the flexibility that babywearing and an umbrella stroller will give me vs this stroller. Regardless I plan on still baby wearing and bringing my carrier, but the stroller is there to supplement this during our travels! And one last note - we are hoping to have 1 more kid eventually so if your recommended stroller/setup has more longevity, even better!

I have a [bombi](https://bombigear.com/products/bebee-lightweight-travel-stroller?variant=42614341828790&country=US¤cy=USD&utm_medium=product_sync&utm_source=google&utm_content=sag_organic&utm_campaign=sag_organic&tw_source=google&tw_adid=721196113882&tw_campaign=21904770230&tw_kwdid=pla-2430160465087&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=21904770230&gclid=CjwKCAiAybfLBhAjEiwAI0mBBr5G1Sy16pBDQRVo0It358Ph2y3PUg4conhGUmu5Z2hjuhzwDz7FbhoChwQQAvD_BwE) that’s been great for us daily and for travel. One handed fold, travel bag included. A bit heavy for some - 17 pounds. I think it fits in the overhead but I’ve always gate-checked which i prefer when traveling solo. You’re not using it on the plane and anything that makes getting seated easier was worth it for me

I just got the Bombi after using the Colugo travel stroller for a few years. I LOVE the Bombi and will be using it instead of my UB Cruz as my every day stroller. I got the snack tray which is a huge upgrade, and the basket is really spacious. Whenever we’ve flown I have gate checked, I’ve never been compelled to drag a stroller on the plane with me. I got it open box for $150 but definitely would pay more for it.

I just got a Bombi travel stroller, and I love it! It has a snack tray, large basket, easy to buckle, and one hand fold. I got it open box for $150 (plus the snack tray).

You actually don't have to push a button or pull a lever at all! You just hold the bar and kinda throw the stroller in front of you and it opens automatically ! 

Sadly you can either have: A. Bulky, heavier, good suspension, good for mixed terrain OR B. Lightweight, smaller wheels, more bumpy, not good on mixed terrain, small fold I have done so much research and tried so many and they just do not exist all in one. I do firmly believe that the top "best of both worlds" strollers with a bassinet/pramette attachment option are the Joolz Aer 2 and the Uppababy Minu V3. However, both of these are more expensive. For a more budget option, bombi bebee V2 or Ergo Metro 3. Once you pick a stroller, just look what car seats they are compatible with and just get the most affordable one. All car seats are held to the same safety standards.

Was looking at the Minu. Ended up more interested in the Joolz AER 2, the Stokke Yoyo3 (at anniversary sale pricing at Nordstroms right now) and the Bombi Bebee v2. Ordered the Bombi, hopefully it works. I have a Vista and it was very expensive and is my daily driver, but I don't really use it with the car seat I just put my baby in the stroller seat, so compatibility isn't a huge need for me. The Bombi checks every box I want but that price difference will involve some tradeoffs I'm sure.

I got a Bombi V2 and just got back from a week and a half in Cabo with a 6 month old. I loved it. It was not easy to tip over. I did really want a Joolz Aer 2, but I’ll wait for a decent sale then buy it and sell the Bombi on marketplace. Until then, the Bombi is fantastic. I had gotten similarly stuck when I was doing research (see my post history). I got a bunch of advice with even more models than I was considering. There is so much out there. I can tell you I’m very happy with the choice I made.

I disagree with both of those things. The seat is a fairly sturdy fabric piece with a low-tech clamp to adjust the elevation. I have never once felt the stroller would tip, and I just got back from Costco with it after dual-wielding the stroller and a cart so I’ve put it through its paces. But why don’t you buy on Amazon and return it you don’t like it? It’s an easy return. The thing comes fully assembled.
