Zoe - Tour V2

Our family has owned a couple zoe strollers. I'd highly recommend. Not sure where to try locally, but they fold up nicely https://zoebaby.com/collections/singles/

Second the Zoe Tour! Better price point and agree with everything said above. I have a new version (bought last Oct), but I didn’t get the all terrain wheels. I may at some point because as @etgetc noted I do have to pop it over some curbs/uneven sidewalks, but it’s so light and easy to maneuver that it really doesn’t bother me. And it comes standard with a parent cup holder as well as child snack and cup holders and belly bar which are extra add-ons for the higher priced strollers.

I also have the Zoe Tour. It’s pretty much taken over as our everyday stroller. Had it almost a year now. Definitely easy to maneuver for public transit.

Lol, yep. Uppababy isn’t even close to in my budget. I’m perfectly happy with my $200 something Zoe!

We upgraded from a secondhand Evenflo to a secondhand Nuna and the difference is very obvious. The features like the mesh back and sun shade are very useful for the heat, and the ride is so smooth and easy. We chose Nuna over other brands because it accommodates tall babies and we've got a 92% percentiler. I will say that our Zoe travel stroller is just as nice but only cost us $250 compared to the $500 we spent on the used Nuna (though obviously it is much smaller and has limited storage since it's a compact stroller). If you're looking for a very nice stroller that's not 4 figures, Zoe does a travel system with bassinet.

I couldn’t use my vista as a double. My oldest is very tall and couldn’t fit in the lower seat, which is intended for the older one. We quickly moved to the Zoe double, which I love.

I have the bumbleride indie and we love it! We got it for a deal from rebel or goodbuy gear because it was new but slightly scratched. I live in an area where I can walk to the library, grocery store etc from our house. So we love just strolling out the door with the indie. We also have really bumpy sidewalks around so we needed the air tires and I do some very light jogging with it as well. The cork handlebar is awesome. It has an adapter for a variety of car seats but we never ended up using that because my baby hated the stroller until she was almost 6 months and we just did baby wearing on our walks. Also, the indie and I think the era recline flat so they are safe for less than 6 month olds without any adapter. We ended up with the Chicco keyfit 35 cleartex car seat because I just couldn't justify paying for the fancy Nuna ones even if they are lighter. And it's fine! However the indie is huge and heavy! We ended up getting a small zoe travel stroller (they have one made with recycled fabric!) as well because if we are traveling anywhere the indie takes up a ton of space. We got our zoe from one of those returned/open box websites as well and it was a great deal. I personally really like having two options, one big full size and one super packable travel stroller, but I know that isn't for everyone. I do highly recommend searching all the open box type websites for deals, or of course looking for used strollers if you live in a city or non-rural area. The "greenest" thing is not buying new in my opinion (and it saves $$)

We have the Guava and love it! We had the car seat attachment as well and it worked out great for us. It’s supposedly the smallest of the jogging strollers, and it does fold up nice and neat, but it’s still quite heavy and cumbersome to fold and carry around, so we still ended up getting a compact travel stroller (a Zoe), especially because I don’t think the Guava would be practical for air travel. Just want to point out that you definitely don’t have to get more than 1 stroller to start! You can always get a jogger and see how it works for you, and then add a travel stroller if you feel you need it later. If I had to pick just 1, I’d definitely pick the Guava over our travel stroller for everyday use though. 

Yesss! Love my Zoe.

There’s definitely an overwhelming amount of options… You can definitely do a combo one that’s the car seat and stroller like the Doona. I think this is best for people who live in big cities or travel a lot. I personally don’t think they’re worth it.. you gotta buy a new car seat and stroller when they get bigger. You could get a bigger, travel system which is a good deal. Something like an UPPABaby vista or a mockingbird for a more budget friendly option with a car seat adapter is very nice. These also usually have options for a bassinet or an infant insert so you don’t always have to use the car seat! They’re very nice strollers with lots of storage, high weight limits, lots of accessories and can really last you a long time. The downside is they are pricey and often very heavy/take up a lot of trunk space! Another option is a travel stroller. Many people use these for every day!! There’s many options these days.. some top ones are the Zoe line, Buggaboo Butterfly, UPPAbaby Minu.. there’s many more. These sometimes can be used with a car seat, are often under 20 pounds, fold compactly, are great for toddlers, great for travel, more budget friendly! Downsides are often not best for infants unless it’s one with a car seat adapter, have less storage and not as many bells and whistles. So.. I chose 2. I went with the Mockingbird which is so nice and we love it. It’s great for babies with all the attachments. Worked with our Chico Key fit car seat and is a nice push! Adjustable handle bar was nice since my husband is a lot taller than me. But it’s really heavy for my small frame and took up my whole SUV trunk. So I also got the Zoe Tour. It’s also amazing!! It’s 13 pounds, folds flat, takes up a fraction of my trunk, great for travel and my toddler loves the snack tray and being able to sit fully upright. I keep that one in the trunk and the Mockingbird in the garage for walks. Lastly, check out The Stroller Mom on Instagram or YouTube! She does full videos comparing strollers and doing in-depth reviews of the most popular brands! That’s how I picked my two!! Good luck!

I find it’s really hard to find strollers to actually try in person. I have a Mockingbird single for home use and a Zoe Tour for travel. Love them both. I used The Stroller Mom on YouTube. She does very in depth reviews of almost every stroller and even has some spread sheets to show pros and cons. It was so helpful for picking one!! I don’t think you can really go wrong with the ones you’re looking at! It gets very overwhelming though haha

We use the Zoe regularly as our double with a 14M age gap. We are people who fly 3-5x a year and go to Disney a lot. It is a very utilitarian and lightweight-ish stroller. The seats recline separately and have good canopies. When we travel, we use the regular belly bar and fold it up, but the snack bar is our go-to. It is a little annoying that it isn’t separate and is one big piece. I highly recommend that you get the stroller bag for this because we are able to go out without a diaper bag (one kid is 3 now). We just throw a changing pad in the bottom and extra diapers and snacks in the stroller bag. We did not get the all-terrain wheels, but I’d recommend them if this is your only double. We also have the Uppababy Vista and we have used that for tougher terrain since we own it already. I don’t recommend it as a double. We also own a very old City Mini GT double as a hand-me-down. That thing is a monster and it is so heavy! It feels like Zoe took a look at what made that stroller successful and improved upon its flaws.

Second the Zoe travel stroller. When you’re done with the Doona, you will need something quick and easy for when the baby outgrows it and you’re transferring between a convertible car seat and stroller. It will take you beyond Disney and that’s really important.

Zoe hands down! It is super light weight (can literally pick up with one hand) it folds down flat and turns on a dime. There is also a bunch of room underneath and it reclines on both sides as well so the kiddos can nap if needed.
