Best Umbrella Stroller!
December 9, 2022
Prior to purchasing this umbrella stroller, I had purchased the Summer Infant Fold-Up Umbrella Stroller on Amazon. I used It when traveling through 2 airports on a trip to New England. You get what you pay for. It was awful. It was very cheaply made and one of the wheels didn’t work. I ended up returning it doing a lot of research which led me to this one (Uppababy G-Luxe). Initially I was going to get the cheaper Uppababy fold up stroller (G-Lite) but a lot of reviews I read on the internet said to just go with the better G-Luxe version for durability. I am pleased to say this stroller is great and we’re very happy with it! We recently used it going through 2 airports to Florida flawlessly and then we were able to use it during our trip as well (botanical gardens, wildlife sanctuary, beach, hiking, etc.). For an umbrella stroller, this is very well made. It folds up really easily. It’s not too heavy to carry and I even jogged with it on some non-paved trails and it held up well. We have the Uppababy Cruz as well which is great for everyday use but when traveling, the Uppababy G-Luxe made things so nice! Also, this was practically free through Albee Baby because we used our rewards points we received from purchasing a new car seat through them the month prior. That was a HUGE bonus for us! We even have a friend that is now going to buy this stroller because I’ve raved about it so much.
