Help me pick a stroller that’s actually practical for daily use in Mumbai/India 😭
FTM with a newborn (6W) and deep in stroller research paralysis. Looking for real-world feedback from moms who’ve actually used theirs long term.
Trying to choose between strollers like Loopie, Joie, Chicco, Stokke YOYO etc and fully overwhelmed 😭
My priorities are:
Smooth ride on uneven Indian roads/pavements
Good suspension + not too shaky for newborn stage
Easy one-hand fold/open >> BIG ONE!!!
Not insanely bulky/heavy for car boots/lifts/travel
Can handle daily walks + malls + occasional flight travel
Good canopy/ventilation for Mumbai heat
Comfortable recline for naps
Easy to maneuver solo
Decent basket space
Ideally usable till toddler years and worth the money
I don’t want something huge just because it looks luxurious, but also don’t want an ultra-light stroller that feels flimsy. Basically trying to find the sweet spot between sturdy + practical.
Would love recommendations/regrets/favorites. Especially if you compared multiple brands before buying. Which stroller ended up being genuinely convenient in day-to-day life?
