recommendations: lightweight, compact pushchair

[Pam50]

Would really appreciate your recommendations for a lightish weight, compact, easy folding pushchair for a toddler

10 months-3yrs or thereabouts - just to use occasionally for shortish journeys when babysitting.

Many thanks!

We've recently bought a Maclaren Volo and it's great. Very light weight, reasonable steering for a stroller and very handy for tight spaces.

Depending on budget the babyzen yoyo or the mountain buggy nano

I like our Uppababy G-Luxe

I bought a Silver Cross 'POP' stoller on sale in Mothercare a few months ago (I think it's still on sale for about ?100). It's very light - too light for a small baby, but would be fine for a toddler I would think. I really like it as it's easy to manoeuvre and fold up.

Baby jogger city mini. Folds one handed! And lies flat.

We have the Uppababy G-lux too and I'm happy with it. Advantages are it's very lightweight (more than a maclaren I think), folds very compact, and you can stand it upright (surprisingly useful). On the other hand I think it's probably a bit less hard-wearing than a maclaren, and it can be a bit awkward to unfold. It doesn't adjust to lie completely flat, but goes to 120 degrees I think. It was cheaper than a maclaren when we bought it but not sure now.
