Need a stroller for a tall and big 3 year old. It will mostly be used on long trips so needs to not take up so much room in the trunk. Will need to fit with suitcases. Need an easy push don’t care how easy it is to fold as long as it doesn’t take up a lot of room.

City mini gt or mountain buggy stroller. Both are good for older children. Although the city mini is a smaller fold than the mountain buggy.

Bugaboo butterfly is what you’re looking for. Weight limit is 48.5 lbs. one handed fold, great push. Oh and folds small enough to fit in an overhead bin.

I would not want to be pushing a large heavy child in either the butterfly or the yoyo. They have tiny wheels and the seat size is a lot smaller.

Bugaboo butterfly has a seat back of 24”

Joolz aer is 25”

City mini, Yoyo, and uppababy Minu are 26”

I can’t find seat measurements for the silver cross jet, but it has the highest weight limit of them all at 55lbs. I know in 2020 it was redesigned to fit bigger kids.

All strollers that fold small have tiny wheels. It doesn't mean the push is hard. The yoyo and butterfly actually put quite smoothly with a bigger child in it.

It is almost impossible to push, especially with a heavy child.

I put my 4 yr old In the back and strap my toddler in the front in the nano. It takes the weight just fine. Pushing 2 kids for few yrs together and going strong so for me it was not a problem
