We have the metro+ and it's been working well for us from newborn stage to a now 2yo. It's very compact and still does ok on cobblestone and whatnot
That makes sense. The Metro+ does have a kindof cocoon setting (extending the sides to create a flat enclosed space for the baby) but it's perhaps not as nice as others.
We brought the Ergo Baby Metro Plus. It is an our daily stroller- but also folds up to fit in the overhead cabin on a plane (very compact!). It is slim, and can lay down completely flat when the child is inside for naps if needed. It’s a pricier stroller- but we have had it for 2 years now and it’s been a breeze! On the boat itself, we only used it when waiting in line for character meet & greets, we carried her, or she walked the other times when she was 18 months when we went on the Fantasy for a week. It fit under the bed with no issue when we weren’t using it!
We have the metro+ and I love it. I would get the new version, the metro3 if you’re buying now. It has all the adaptors and has one hand fold which the metro+ didn’t. I have taken it on multiple trips within Canada as well as to Mexico and Ireland.
The metro+ isn’t one hand fold/unfold. That’s really the only thing irritating about it.
I have taken my Ergobaby metro+ on 3 plane trips within Canada, to Mexico, and Ireland. I love it. There’s a new version, the metro 3.
I have the metro+ (precursor to metro 3) and love it. The only thing that is a bit annoying is the 2 hand fold, but I know they changed that for the metro 3! My 22 month old is still very comfortable in it. I have never actually put it in an overhead bin, just gate checked it. But I’ve taken it on 3 plane trips in Canada, to Mexico, and to Ireland. It lives in my car, so it’s our main out and about stroller.
My metro+ fits in the footwell between my toddlers car seat and the front seat.
I love my ergobaby metro+ (precursor to metro 3). I’ve never tried to take it as carry on though. It’s been on 5 plane trips and 2 different countries though.
I have the precursor the metro+ and also love it!
The ergobaby metro can be used from birth. I have the older version and love it. They updated to one hand fold for the metro 3, which is the only complaint I had about the metro+. You can even use it with some car seats.
The ergobaby metro is a great travel stroller!
Yeah, I’ve taken mine to Ireland, Mexico, and a number of trips in Canada. Been great every time!
That is true, the unfold is not one handed. But otherwise I love it. And for me personally I haven’t run into that many times where it’s been an issue 🤷🏼♀️ I have always had a carrier/wrap/sling as well.
I love my Ergobaby Metro and it can be used from newborn.
This question is asked a lot, so I recommend using the search function. You’ll get lots of recent discussion, including several from the last week. I have the ergobaby metro and really like it.
We have an ergobaby metro + and it is small, smooth, and fits in the overhead compartment of an airplane. Our son is 3 1/2 and we still use it! I couldn’t deal with the uppababy, way too huge! The ergobaby I can use with one hand when opening a door etc. We ALSO have a bob which we use to walk to the park an neighborhood for longer walks. I don’t put this one on my car. https://ergobaby.com/the-metro-3-stroller?tw_source=google&tw_adid=&tw_campaign=17158690963&tw_kwdid=&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=17154282930&gbraid=0AAAAADk2sN2eRE_Qi_8uWHU-3g693W50C&gclid=CjwKCAiAmp3LBhAkEiwAJM2JUJ5AiI2PSe7nY0jxoiaa1sijVGs1lfdhGbi9r4lql_x1xgWUs0ZSHxoClN8QAvD_BwE
Two main ones—we like the vista for our neighborhood and a cheaper one for travel (mountain buggy nano or ergo metro plus that converts for newborns, trifolds, and can have a car seat balanced safely on top. I skipped the Doona since it only works for the first year or so. (We also got the uppababy g luxe as a third for our off the charts tall kiddo that didn’t fit in other strollers by the time he was 2 years old.)
Do you regret getting the metro + vs. metro 3? that's my debate right now - metro + is discounted sooo deep for black friday but the metro 3 is full price. hard to ignore the price difference. Update: I ended up buying the Metro+ on a deep discount but I absolutely hated it. I hated how it drove, how it folded/unfolded, I hated the fabric and the feeling. I ended up returning and buying the Metro 3 and I'm really happy I did. I personally feel like you can FEEL the difference in the premium you're paying. The drive is smoother, the fold/unfold is also easier, and the materials feel much more luxe.
