gbPockit+ All City, Velvet Black

We were going on a last minute flights from USA to Cyprus with a layover both ways and didn't like the idea of checking our heavy workhorse of a pushchair. Plus our 9 month old was already 23Lbs so there was no way we would be able to lug him through the airport in our arms or in a baby carrier.Sooo I looked at pushchairs which can be taken on the plane and the GB pockit ones always came the most highly recommended..I was hesitant to buy because of the price but boy was this pushchair amazing!Pros: Takes a moment to flip it open, it packs small (we bought a rucksack specifically to carry it in), fits in the overhead bins on the plane, it is lightweight and easy move, and survived the bumpy roads of Larnaca, you can buy attachments for car seats, has a footrest my baby loved, and lays almost flat! Quality materials! I call it the Brompton of strollers 😀The cons: we got the city version but it still has a small sun shade (we just used a muslin blanket to block more of the sun), there is no way to carry it other than a specially made bag, very small storage, the seat doesn't seem to sit entirely upright, and the adjuster for the seat takes some getting usef to.

I was very hesitant on buying this stroller because of the price but it's better than my graco double seat stroller and it's almost the same price. This stroller is easy to lift, light and folds up so small that I can place it anywhere in my car without it taking up so much space. It's very comfortable for my baby that is 9 months old and great to take it anywhere. It's sturdy and built well and has good amount of storage. I added a momcozy stroller organizer and it gave me more room to put a few more items. The shade covers really well and it's a ease to use! Recommend!

Traveling soon? Airports? Multiple layovers and connections? Then this is the stroller for you and your family. I recently purchased this stroller to navigate airports and numerous connections at the USA's busiest airports. I got it for my 13-month-old, whom I did NOT want to carry around the airport. This was a back saver. Folds down to the size of a briefcase and fits perfectly in the storage bin above airline seats. unfolds within 3 seconds, and you can be on your way in no time. Small truck? It fits perfectly. Weighs around 10 pounds, yet it is very sturdy. Road trip? This stroller fits on the floorboard of any vehicle. 10/10 recommend.

For review clarification: I got the city model with the bigger canopy. Child was forward-facing with straps buckled.This was amazing. It’s nearly one-hand light enough to carry. I got this for specific purpose of a school trip to Washington D.C. and we’re in California. I had 2 school daughters and my third baby daughter on the trip. In a nutshell this stroller was absolutely superb for quick on and off of buses and flights. It would have been lacking for space and independence. I got to about 60 seconds each load and unload but it required other humans to help hold baby or help with stuff. The stroller really requires two hands to collapse, but only one hand to deploy. Going through all the security checkpoints where they commonly make you collapse the stroller this was a stellar choice. NOTE: I would not purchase this as a primary stroller. It is a luxury purchase that made travel and walking tours easier (and I regret nothing! lol). I will be gifting it to my kids and loaning it to friends if I hear they’re traveling and buying one for themselves isn’t possible.Pros I experienced:- with a separately purchased travel bag, this was a dream to take on the plane (AKOZLIN foldable stroller bag in orange)- very easy to get in and out of vehicles all day for days at a time (but not with carry bag, just bare stroller)- tolerated a mild-moderate amount of abuse (rushing to collapse/fold, sometimes wheels were turned wrong way)- it’s so lightweight that you can literally grab whole unit with baby inside and navigate steps (though I really don’t recommend it for human balance issues); two-person stairs were easy easy easy- 3-month old baby was comfortable in it (bundled in parka half the time so posture support wasn’t a huge problem)- extremely easy to move it; can nearly spin in place; can fit through narrow walkways- very comfortable to walk to the side and drive it with one hand; can interact with child better- structure was stable enough (and more stable over another brand I bought and tried out)- baby had a lot of wind protection with canopy and seat sides. I used hair ties/bands to secure a blanket and she was totally out of the rough D.C. winds in February.- had a big enough storage pocket at bottom I could easily keep some wipes, a few diapers, and my water cup/bottle… but not whole diaper bag. Tip: store your water from the front - very easy to pick up and stow quickly and it stayed upright enough to not leakCons I experienced: (while nothing here was a deal-breaker for me, it might be for you)- those straps are difficult to get used to; I need to make marks to help me aim better- it tipped backwards with too much weight on handles. I’d even recommend lightly pulling up or focusing on pulling up while you’re driving it. This is not a stroller you can really lean any weight on at all at handles. (But the hidden pro? It’s structured/padded enough that baby did not get hurt or even feel a thing.)- no cupholders. If you’re coffee addicted or want this as a jogger - you’ll be disappointed.- no handlebar tray at all (but given what I experienced with tipping - I get it)- very little storage space but if you plan your moves, it’s not a problem; not suitable for shopping trips unless you go stow bags in the car after each purchase- it’s so light it will blow away in the wind. Get immediately used to the brake and use it often.- it doesn’t come with its own travel bagWish ideas for company:- stabilize the backward tipping more (if possible without affecting weight)- offer more colors; this will get lost in a sea of strollers at places like Disneyland- extendable handlebars for taller parents. I’m 5’6” (168 cm) and it was borderline short and had me kicking it while walking fast/bigger strides. My 6’2” husband finds this stroller unusable and must walk to the side and drive one handed- please add placement marks on straps/harness. It’s not super intuitive where to aim around the circle anchor in the middle and is very frustrating when you’re trying to move fast(I’ll try to come back and add pictures to illustrate straps but if you get the stroller you’ll quickly see what I’m talking about.)

We purchased this stroller because we wanted a compact and safe stroller for traveling to countries that required lots of walking.PROS:Smooth ride!Compact: I have never seen a stroller that can fold as small as this one can. It is the most compact fold I've ever seen, perfect for overhead in the plane (we hate checking in our strollers, even gate check: unsanitary)CONS: the bottom storage is so small, it feels useless, but we didn't mind. Keeps clutter small.DOES NOT recline well.. it was almost a deal breaker for us, but the compact is what we wanted and well, ya can't have everything
