until now, ive been using the bugaboo chameleon, which is great. But I need a srtoller which folds for travelling, etc. My priorities are that it should fold easily and wheel well. Any reccomendations? Thanks.

thats what my dh wanted to get. I feel weird getting another bugaboo. If I want to use it for folding it and taking it on the bus for example, is it practical?

I have a Bugaboo Bee+ and I fold it with one hand. I have done it with a newborn in my arms. I press on the little black button and push the white part up, then push up the other white part on the other side, then fold the stroller, all with one hand. The only thing that bothers me with the stroller is that it doesn't stand when it's folded. You have to put it on the floor and it sometimes gets dirty.

CITY MINI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It is the Perfect stroller if that's your main priority. it's also very light, you can push it one handed & not so expensive.

I have a mia moda facile stroller for traveling. Folds like an umbrella, I can push it with two fingers, extremely lightweight, nice size basket, seat lies down almost flat. Any other requirements? It falls short of being a bugaboo, but exceeds expectations otherwise.
Oh, and the price? $60.

pretty easily. I also stash it in front of a seat in our MPV.
OP, when I wanted a good umbrella stroller I was told either maclaren, which I hate - they don't push easily, or the city mini. I got the city mini and I am thrilled with it. one hand fold, fairly inexpensive, great canopy,

The city mini is not an umbrella stroller. It's a full size stroller, and the fold is more 'suitcase' than 'umbrella'. It's a very good stroller with an easy fold, but still won't be as lightweight as an umbrella stroller.

there are 4 versions, all basically the same thing, just each one has more features. it looks like a light stroller and easy to fold.

I think it said its nineteen pounds and the maclaren was eleven. Sounds like a pretty big difference. I wonder if the diff in how it wheels makes the extra weight worth it. Also dh wants a handle that can be pushed with one hand.
