Looking to buy a stroller that folds tiny so I can fit it in my car (7 seater car, zero boot space with all seats up).
I need it suitable from birth. Yesterday I had a quick look in the shops and obviously the yoyos is an option. I saw a joie pact that also looked great, for less than half the price, folds down to the same size.
With the yoyo am I paying for the name, or is there really something unique about it?

You're paying for the name, and it's also more sturdy and has more features than some of the others. That doesn't necessarily mean it's worth that much more though.

It's a cool concept but really not a good stroller. It's a little rickety, quite heavy when folded, the push and maneuvering needs two hands often. I wasn't impressed

Great to hear experiences! Something I also noticed is that the baby cocoon is super low down..at least it looks this way in pictures

I love it but my baby doesn’t. She has a hard time falling asleep in it

I like an umbrella stroller best for travel and folding. Like a Mclaren quest..... I find it most compact in the car.

Cybex twist is a good alternative I’m really happy with it

I recently bought the yoyo and I absolutely hate it. Nothing about it is worth the price. Baby is not comfy in it at all. Doesn’t sit in a comfy position. Baby keeps sliding down. And sleeping? Fsure not. True- When it’s folded it’s really small but it’s not so easy to fold- I have to bend down a lot. I don’t find it being sturdy at all, maybe because I’m coming from the bugaboo. The storage basket underneath is no good. Things can easily fall out.
I put it aside and I’m not using it anymore. Switched back to my bugaboo- which broke and that’s why I bought another stroller. But I now ordered a new part to fix the bugaboo.

I don’t know the yo you . But I bought this as a car seat base and eventual car stroller. Happy so far but haven’t used it as a stroller yet.

Cybex twist! It folds with one hand into a legit bag. And it comes with a tiny bassinet for newborns.
Plus, you can pop a car seat on top with the adapters

I have the Cybex Eezy-S Twist. It doesn’t fold up as small as the Yoyo but it’s still pretty small. It feels sturdier and has a better push, IMO, and it’s cheaper. I tried a couple small strollers out in the store and liked this one best, overall. However it does have a very shallow seat. My toddler sits in it happily but it looks uncomfortable to me. You can get a newborn cocoon for it as well.

Will for sure keep my eyes out for the cybex.
I have a maclaren at the moment, but I cant fit it in the car with all the seats up!!

I'm looking at getting a quinny zapp for when we need all the 7 seats up. It folds similar to the maclaren but a quarter of the size. There's now loads of different 'airplane' strollers-every company has one. I also like the look of the city mini tour, but I'm not sure if the fold is quite as small. I know someone with the joie pact and they were happy. Someone else mentioned they're really happy with the silver cross jet.

I have something similar to a yoyo, but way cheaper. I'm really happy with it. I think with the yoyo you're paying for the brand. Not worth it IMHO.

Apparently bugaboo just bought out a similar product. It looks great. Off course it's way more expensive.

The bugaboo ant folds pretty small but it's quite flimsy. Not worth the money.

I have the yoyo and absolutely love it.
Easy to wheel. So lightweight. Simple fold. My baby seems comfortable in it.

Another great option is the silver cross wing.
Reputable company. One hand fold. Lies flat- so better for small baby...

The bugaboo ant is a super complicated fold and baby looks like they're falling out. Not recommended.
