What is a Lightweight Stroller

As the name suggests, lightweight stroller is, well, light in weight. Some of them weigh as little as12 pounds. Understandably, these do not come with too many frills and have just the adequate features. Some lightweight strollers can be folded like an umbrella, so they are also called as umbrella strollers. They become very compact when folded and are easy to carry as well as store.

How is a Lightweight Stroller Useful

Since they are less expensive, people buy lightweight strollers as a backup, or for traveling purposes. They are not bulky, and this makes them ideal for long distance travel or where heavy baggage is an issue. They are better for babies and toddlers who can sit without need of head support. Also, they are compact and do not consume much space.

Pros and Cons of a Lightweight Stroller

Just as there are advantages to a lightweight stroller, there are some disadvantages too.
Pros Cons
Quick Folding and portable. Might be flimsy and not last long.
Easy to Carry, can even fit into your luggage. The storage space is usually very small, just enough to fit a diaper bag.
Cost-effective. The wheels are small, so maneuvering is hard.
Might easily tip over if you hang anything heavy on the handle.
Does not have much padding, may not be very adjustable and does not fully recline - so not suitable for small babies.
