MamaLoop mums pick

We researched travel strollers for families who fly, use public transport or need a second pram for the car. The Minu V3 came out well in BabyGearLab's testing as a travel stroller that still feels well built, with a basket big enough to be useful and a fold that meets airline carry-on size guidance. It suits newborns with its newborn pack or a capsule. Testers noted the trade-offs: the fold needs a firm hand, it's a little heavier than some rivals, and small wheels struggle on grass and gravel. Check your airline's cabin rules before you rely on it.
