Mountain Buggy - nano™ (2020+)

Agreed! I was just there with my 2 year old and my Mountain Buggy Nano (single), and between the narrow doorways, cobblestone, and stairs, it was definitely a workout.

Was just going to recommend this! I have the current version, which is $320, and have used it for 2 years on about 7 international trips, and as my backup car stroller. It has held up well, and I originally used it with my Clek Liingo infant seat. I've always gate checked it, just to keep my hands free to get on and off the flight.

My daily stroller is a Bugaboo Donkey, and I used a Mountain Buggy Nano for travel. The Liingo fit great on both!

We like the mountain buggy nano v3…. It’s a lower price point and it has a universal car seat attachment strap for the airport etc

I know you found one but I like the mountain buggy v3…. Not only does it lie flat, suitable for newborns, but it can accept ANY newborn or infant car seat … it has a seatbelt like strap attached so you can put your car seat on it and securely attach it. Great if you are ever travelling with a car seat

Mountain buggy nano

You can get the uppababy snugseat as an in between. We used that with the rumble seat fully reclined and skipped the bassinet all together. For a travel stroller, we love our mountain buggy nano. You’ll have to buy the newer model though. It lies fully flat but the previous ones only recline partially.

Mountain buggy nano v3 worked for our big toddler and still fits her at 3.5. Have taken it on tons of flights (we gate check) though I do think it’s overhead compliant. Seat can drop flat so kid can sleep laying flat if that’s something you’re interested in. Has worked for us in a few airports. Def not as easy to fold up as the Nuna strollers (like butter) but once you get the hang of it, it’s not so bad…Got it 20% off though so that sealed it.

We have the mountain biggy nano. Massive win was that it lays flat whereas not all the ones on your list so i believe. Weve got the MB Nano Urban specifically for the bigger wheels at destination. Loved it and worth every cent

Not on your list but given youve listed handling rocky or uneven terrain I feel obliged to mention the Mountain Design Urban Nano which is in the same price range as the Cybex etc. The big bonus for us was the removable and interchangeable wheels. Travel pram wheels suck. Doesnt matter how good the rest of the pram is having 5.5" fixed wheels is the worst over cobblestones or just general rocky and holly terrain. The MDUN has interchangeable wheels that you can swap out for as destination (or just have on at all times of youre gate checking it) that are 10.5" at he back and 7.5" at the front and they are a gamechanger. Super easy to pop on and off (we do it at the airport then stash the big wheels in our suitcase) and make the pram almost normal height and handles way better than any of the other travel prams we tested. That plus it lays flat ao great for napping, the accessory bundle is often included at sales time. The basket is big enough for all her essentials like nappies and bottles and was one of the more useable baskets of all the ones we tested. The final big win for me as a queenslander was that the back panel completely rolls up leaving a mesh panel for fantastic air flow for summer naps Weve had ours for six months and done Melb x1 on virgin, Adelaide x1 on Virgin and then Europe for five weeks via Singapore Air and it is hands down the best purchase weve made. Its great for overhead on those airlines with the travel wheels, the footmuff kept her warm in london and melbourne and adelaide and the rear panel and black out shield allowed her to nap in comfort in 40C heat in Spain. I love it so much i use it as my day to day pram for outings and adventures 95% of the time over the big pram at home.

We have a Cosco Scenera seat mainly for getting to and from airports, occasionally to get around the city. Our strollers are an Uppababy Vista, which can accommodate the car seat in the basket, and the Mountain Buggy Nano which has a universal infant car seat attachment system and a supposedly popular toddler carseat attachment hack. All that being said, we almost never go anywhere that requires that we lug the car seat with us at the destination. It’s too much equipment. These clever travel ideas don’t account for all the toddler stuff we have to carry around anyway, so getting either stroller perfectly packed so that they can go into a car trunk without raining out a bag’s worth of stale cracker crumbs only happens if we’re flying. What we actually do is 1) check if the destination has coat check or stroller parking to leave the car seat there, 2) figure out how to get there via public transportation with the travel stroller and/or a toddler carrier (apparently I’m often the only person that’s ever worn a 2yo because people were constantly surprised to see my giant monster of a child looming over them), or we put off going until kid is out of the car seat and ready for a booster/harness. Our wishlist of city destinations isn’t that long, just take the subway.

My son was 9 months when we went on our first trip, so he was a little bigger, but we bought a Mountain Buggy Nano online and a COSCO car seat from Walmart. The Nano has a belt to attach the seat to the stroller, we wheeled it as one piece through the airport, then when we were on the plane he sat in his car seat and the stroller went in the overhead. I don’t know if the same setup would work with a regular bucket/infant carrier, but maybe? How much longer do you think you’ll keep your LO in an infant seat? The Doona isn’t light by itself. We were out of the carrier by 9 months. So if you’re anything like us, you’d only get 5 months of use out of it. Unless you’re planning to have more kids or resell it, then it might be worthwhile. We will probably use the Nano/COSCO set up for travel until he is 4 or so. The Nano isn’t perfect. The straps are wonky and don’t go small enough for a small child, but I knotted them in the back to keep them shorter. It lays flat, perfect for naps in the airport. The hood comes back far enough it covers my hands, which is kind of annoying. But it steers great, is half the price of the Yoyo, very compact, we actually use it as much or more than our full-sized Graco.

I have 3. Uppababy Cruz is my everyday stroller, a BOB from fb marketplace is my winter/snow stroller, Mountain Buggy Nano is my travel stroller (has gone all over Canada, US, China, and Portugal). Love all three.

The Mountain Buggy Nano is a great travel stroller but not a great long-term option for a child who is already 4 unless they are very petite. Something easy to fold and reasonably compact but with a higher weight capacity and seat dimensions that will work for a bigger/older child will be beneficial in the long run since kids tend to need strollers MUCH longer at Disney than in regular life. Assuming they don’t actually intend to jog with it outside of Disney, I’d suggest the Baby Jogger City Mini GT2. It will fit a bigger child so much better. Shop around on Marketplace to find a good condition gently used one to save on the cost. 

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.)
