So my baby grew out of the Doona (which I didn't like at all, but that's not the point of this thread).
She's my oldest and I have no idea which stroller to get next.
I don't even know which features to look out for, what's better to focus on and what's not so important.
I'm ready to spend up to $5-600.
Please help!
Thank you

You need to decide what you’ll be using it most for, what things are important to you, and go from there. It really depends on your lifestyle. If you walk a lot, travel by car a lot, fly frequently etc.

So I travel to and from work every day but I'm ok using the Doona for that because once at work she's not in the stroller at all.
Most to least important:
Should be able to recline fully
Compact, but doesn't have to be ultra small or lightweight
Smooth
Easy fold
Things like a tray, lots of storage space, cup holder etc are not really important
bonus if it can also be used with a bassinet

A bassinet? I thought you said your baby is 1?

So you’re looking for a full size compact stroller. Go to a store and try different ones to see what you like best. I would recommend the bugaboo bee but it’s discontinued and the dragonfly seat looks kind of weird from what I’ve seen.

No she’s 5 months old.
I want the bassinet because I want to use it for my next one.
For this baby I used the Doona from birth and I regret it.

My bad. I assumed the Doona can be used till a year (like a typical infant car seat)

Cybex eezy S twist +2.
Full recline, easy fold, both direction seats, compact size. (If you want smaller get without+ it's smaller wheels) great push and has options for bassinet or cocoon for newborn.
Bugaboo butterfly hardly reclines and the brand makes the price alot more than it's value in my opinion.

Not sure where your located m, but Piccolino in Lakewood is having a major sale (was today and is tomorrow). I saw some uppababy Minus there which sounds like a pefect stroller for you.
It’s lightweight, lays all the way down, folds with one hand, pushes easily.
You could also buy a bassinet attachment with it to use for your next baby.
