gb Pockit Stroller Travel Bag, Black

For review clarification: I got the city model with the bigger canopy. Child was forward-facing with straps buckled.This was amazing. It’s nearly one-hand light enough to carry. I got this for specific purpose of a school trip to Washington D.C. and we’re in California. I had 2 school daughters and my third baby daughter on the trip. In a nutshell this stroller was absolutely superb for quick on and off of buses and flights. It would have been lacking for space and independence. I got to about 60 seconds each load and unload but it required other humans to help hold baby or help with stuff. The stroller really requires two hands to collapse, but only one hand to deploy. Going through all the security checkpoints where they commonly make you collapse the stroller this was a stellar choice. NOTE: I would not purchase this as a primary stroller. It is a luxury purchase that made travel and walking tours easier (and I regret nothing! lol). I will be gifting it to my kids and loaning it to friends if I hear they’re traveling and buying one for themselves isn’t possible.Pros I experienced:- with a separately purchased travel bag, this was a dream to take on the plane (AKOZLIN foldable stroller bag in orange)- very easy to get in and out of vehicles all day for days at a time (but not with carry bag, just bare stroller)- tolerated a mild-moderate amount of abuse (rushing to collapse/fold, sometimes wheels were turned wrong way)- it’s so lightweight that you can literally grab whole unit with baby inside and navigate steps (though I really don’t recommend it for human balance issues); two-person stairs were easy easy easy- 3-month old baby was comfortable in it (bundled in parka half the time so posture support wasn’t a huge problem)- extremely easy to move it; can nearly spin in place; can fit through narrow walkways- very comfortable to walk to the side and drive it with one hand; can interact with child better- structure was stable enough (and more stable over another brand I bought and tried out)- baby had a lot of wind protection with canopy and seat sides. I used hair ties/bands to secure a blanket and she was totally out of the rough D.C. winds in February.- had a big enough storage pocket at bottom I could easily keep some wipes, a few diapers, and my water cup/bottle… but not whole diaper bag. Tip: store your water from the front - very easy to pick up and stow quickly and it stayed upright enough to not leakCons I experienced: (while nothing here was a deal-breaker for me, it might be for you)- those straps are difficult to get used to; I need to make marks to help me aim better- it tipped backwards with too much weight on handles. I’d even recommend lightly pulling up or focusing on pulling up while you’re driving it. This is not a stroller you can really lean any weight on at all at handles. (But the hidden pro? It’s structured/padded enough that baby did not get hurt or even feel a thing.)- no cupholders. If you’re coffee addicted or want this as a jogger - you’ll be disappointed.- no handlebar tray at all (but given what I experienced with tipping - I get it)- very little storage space but if you plan your moves, it’s not a problem; not suitable for shopping trips unless you go stow bags in the car after each purchase- it’s so light it will blow away in the wind. Get immediately used to the brake and use it often.- it doesn’t come with its own travel bagWish ideas for company:- stabilize the backward tipping more (if possible without affecting weight)- offer more colors; this will get lost in a sea of strollers at places like Disneyland- extendable handlebars for taller parents. I’m 5’6” (168 cm) and it was borderline short and had me kicking it while walking fast/bigger strides. My 6’2” husband finds this stroller unusable and must walk to the side and drive one handed- please add placement marks on straps/harness. It’s not super intuitive where to aim around the circle anchor in the middle and is very frustrating when you’re trying to move fast(I’ll try to come back and add pictures to illustrate straps but if you get the stroller you’ll quickly see what I’m talking about.)

We brought this stroller on 2 international flights to Europe, and it folded down so nicely. We took it through the cobblestone streets on London and Paris, and it had no trouble. It carried our 5 year old with ease. The ride was smooth, the storage capacity below helped hold jackets and water bottle, and it was so easy to break down and open back up if we were getting onto trains or going inside of museums. It’s quiet, it’s sleek, and it’s super easy to turn and navigate. I’ll say the breaks aren’t the best, so make sure to stick a foot behind one of the wheels if you put it on a train, but other than that, it’s amazing! It handled some serious terrain (gravel, uneven sidewalks, cobblestone, etc.) with ease!

This stroller is amazing. It is super lightweight and compact! We travel with it every month when we fly. It is extremely durable and has held up to over 50 miles of walking. My daughter LOVES this stroller. Even though she was technically too young to sit in it at 3 months old, we reclined it all the way back and started walking with her. She hated her car seat and the larger stroller we bought her, but she has always been happy in this stroller. It does not recline completely flat, but has a good range of angles for the back.The sun shade is so so. It really only provides cover then the sun is directly overhead. But it is still a great feature to have on a small collapsible stroller. The little basket at the bottom is great for carrying small packages. I even fit a gallon of water down there. Overall Well designed!

I hated this stroller and then I fell in love with this stroller!!! Let me backtrack and say that I read a lot of the reviews and did originally agree that the stroller felt exactly how a loose suitcase handle feels - slightly shaky and loose. I initiated a return thinking that this stroller was not worth the price. Well let me tell you something - I started using it in the meantime just because it was in my car and convenient when running errands. This little tiny stroller grew on me to the point that I now recommend it to everyone! The reason I did 4 stars and not 5 is because there are a couple of minor changes I would make which would really make this a 5 start stroller. Some things I would change is somehow incorporating a single push bar handle instead of the two handles (it is not so easy pushing with one hand although it is definitely doable and I do it all the time). I would love if the stroller would 100% of the time fold correctly on the first try (you need to either lock the wheels in the forward position or just be mindful to first make the wheels straight before folding otherwise the wheels get caught in each other and wont allow the stroller to fold). Lastly, I wish the handles telescoped out even more for us tall people! I am 5"8 and find myself hunching slightly to comfortable rest my hands on the handles. In the next edition of this stroller, if they update those couple of things this would be a worldwide best seller. I have all of the luxury stroller brands out there and even though they are great, they are not fit for travel. I think the winning factor in this stroller is the foldability. This thing collapses SO SMALL. My 4 year old carries it around fully folded. We have the 8 seater 2019 toyota sienna mini van and there is a small compartment in the trunk where you are supposed to store the small middle seat when not in use.... fun fact: this stroller FITS perfectly in that tiny little compartment. Its the greatest thing ever. Its so addictive how cute and tiny the stroller is when folded. My 2 year old has fallen asleep 2x already in this stroller and has NEVER fallen asleep in his bugaboo stroller. I was debating to get the bugaboo butterfly as a travel stroller instead but honestly it doesn't even fold down THAT small. This is a TRUE travel stroller (and we don't even travel!) it is perfect as a car stroller tucked into that little toyota minivan compartment. The pro's definitely outweigh the cons. No this is not a luxury stroller, but yes this is the smallest folding stroller on the market and does its job!
