I’m looking for a stroller to keep in my car. I need it to fold really small because I don’t have room in my trunk, so I’ll need to keep it on the floor of the car behind the baby’s car seat.

Ideally also easy smooth fold, space in the stroller to carry things, etc.

Oh and I’m short. I like lower handlebar heights! I feel uncomfortable with the uppababy minu for example which is 41 inches. I get that they’re concerned about the taller parents but they sort of lost me.

Ideas?

TIA!

Just got the bugaboo butterfly and loving it. But really anything that is one handed fold is a lifesaver. (Had the yoya and hated the 2 handed folding)

How is the handlebar height on the butterfly? And how small does it fold?

One hand fold, very compact, decent basket for a travel stroller plus a nice hood, pushes very well (when your 15 yo son mentions it, you know it's noteworthy!), bumper bar which you can use as a handle.

Bonus was that I realized my infant car seat nestles in it perfectly.

I'm under 5 feet and find pushing it to be a breeze.

And it pops open with one hand too, no buttons or levers or anything to fuss with.

It’s not moveable, I’m tall 5’8” and I wouldn’t have minded it a drop higher. Not sure the folded measurements but it does meet the guidelines to put in the overhead compartment on a plane. It’s also super sturdy like bugaboo usually is.

Joolz aer is amazing
Also babyzen yo-yo, but joolz is a much easier one handed fold

if you don't mind pink (that is the only color they have now) this is a good cheaper option how to buy it

I'm 4ft10
Have the yoyo and mountain buggy nano
Both great
Both fit behind seats in car
The handles height dont bother me on both (or 5ft11 DH).
I thought it would but it actually doesn't.
Perhaps go to a shop and try them out for size?
