AER Series

Chiming in to recommend the Joolz Aer. It’s great. US regulation doesn’t allow totally flat recline but baby can sleep in it comfortably. The EU version does have flat recline. You can also get adapters to plop your infant car seat onto it. 

2. Vista (but I wish I go the Cruz) and Joolz Aer for car/travel once she was older.

I also have the Joolz Aer Plus and just tried out the minu v3. I had a hard time opening the minu V3. It is definitely not as smooth as the joolz. I don’t know if I got a defective one or if that’s the way it is on all. Is anyone having trouble with squeeza and fold/ unfold on minu v3? I absolutely love the one-handed fold, and the light weight of the Joolz. I hate the useless recline and the tiny under basket. The minu has a huge and capable basket and a great recline. It’s a tough choice, but it is 3 pounds heavier also

Get the joolz to start and see if it meets all your needs. If your lifestyle requires a bigger one, you can always get it, and you’ll always need a more compact one for travel anyway

the Joolz AER2 just became available on GoodBuy Gear, so you can now get the Joolz AER+ for an even deeper discount. We got the 2025 AER+ from there and did end up needing to buy a separate leg extender for our 8 month old so his feet wouldn't dangle. I found one on Amazon for like $25 and it works great. The Joolz AER2 comes with the leg extender built in, but the stroller is more expensive. I absolutely love this stroller. The canopy is awesome on it and the push is super smooth.

I’m so surprised at everyone mentioning the UPPABABY? That shit is heavy duty and IMO not what the OP is looking for at all. I’d highly recommend the joolzaer. Travel friendly, extremely lux European brand and allows bassinet attachment/ car seat so it’s perfect to use from birth. If you are in a typical urban/city living it will be perfect. If you are in rough terrain, might not be the most ideal but it’s under 7Kg, 8kg basket & fits everywhere and anywhere!!

This is what we’ve settled on, plus a Doona because we do a lot of plane travel and it seems convenient for that while they’re still little. 

All my research recommended two strollers - a really well built one, and a travel one, and that's what we ended up with. We actually bought two thinking we would keep one and saw they had different purposes. Here are some features that were important to us (either in buying or in retrospect): * The tallest handle possible for my tall husband (Bugaboo Fox 5) * Really good suspension for badly maintained roads (Bugaboo) * Lightness, foldability, and size to take indoors places like doctor's offices (Joolz Aer+) * Fit in care (Joolz Aer+) * Bassinet (both, but if I were to do it over I'd consider the one company that does overnight rated bassinets for naps) Things I didn't care about - car seat systems - each of these had adapters for our car seats. While we did carseats on both strollers for doctor's appts, for antyhing else we transferred baby to the bassinet. What we did find is that these really aren't interchangable. For example, the Joolz is really bumpy and our baby seems like they are sliding out of it now that they are bigger, but it's also the one that fits in the car and in public spaces well (like eating outdoors at a restaurant). The Bugaboo is much easier to handle once unfolded and comfier for baby but also now 50 pounds with the baby in it. The suspension really helps, but it can be a workout on hills and heavy to take down steps.

I have the Aer+. There’s a bassinet attachment that you can purchase for a newborn- my baby used it and it seemed quite comfortable for her! I love that it’s a one handed fold too- very helpful when I’m managing things by myself day to day. As for the recline, does your baby only sleep in full recline mode? My baby actually sleeps better in the Aer+ than my full sized Uppababy Cruz 😅 I’ve since discovered she doesn’t like sleeping flat on her back when out and about

Ma try mo watch si stroller mom for reviews. Depende kasi yan sa budget at lifestyle mo. Ako kasi ive decided na something handy for travelling pero makakanap si lo pag napagod plus pwede pangharabas sa mall or yun kaya ko and hassle-free kahit kaming 2 lang. i bought joolz aer kasi pwede din ako sumakay haha tapos kaya operate ng 1 hand. Namili nalang ako ng mga sabit sabit for cup holder and sabit ng bag or sa ilalim. Very durable din 🙂nagamit na ng panganay ko (until 4yo) then ngayon sa nb ko naman kaya sulit 😁
