If you're planning to jet off or replacing your existing buggy to take on a trip, picking the ideal lightweight travel pushchair will ensure that your trip is a smooth one. Our test group searched for a stroller that was lightweight and easy to fold but also durable enough for daily use.

They also wanted something that was cabin friendly and would fit in the limited space on trains, planes and boats.

You will also find it easier to maneuver on a plane or train. You'll need a stroller that has a large basket that can hold all your items you need for your clothes and other.

One of the lightest holiday cheap pushchairs we've tried is the Babyzen Yoyo2. It has a slim frame that is curved and a high-quality mono-colour fabric. It comes with a thick hood that can shield your child from the sun and a handy cup holder to hold drinks. It can also be folded using just one hand. It comes in black, red, toffee, or grey, and is very affordable.

Another great lightweight holiday pushchair is the Joie Tourist. This stylish stroller comes in a stunning shade of gray. It's also light, with a weight of just 6kg. It can be folded down to size of a suitcase. It's ideal for parents who require a pushchair that is easy to transport. It can also be used as a pram with its seat that can recline!

There are a variety to pick from, including some that come with a assortment of accessories like a bassinet for babies, a rain cover, and even an infant leg rest to ensure they don't have legs hanging. They can feel a bit flimsy because they have a shorter frame and a simpler suspension than buggies that are larger. However, our MFM testers found that all of them were manageable.

A good quality lightweight holiday pushchair will be easy to maneuver and come with an ample storage basket so you can take lots of essentials with you. It should be able of standing on its own when folded, so it can be carried through airports and in the car's boot without occupying luggage space.

Easy to fold

The Britax Holiday is extremely compact and light and is ideal for use as a lightweight pushchair because it folds down to a tiny size that can be tucked away in overhead storage or even the car boot. It's also cabin-friendly for air travel, and you can put it on your shoulder with an strap that is integrated. It's a little difficult to use at first, but once you get the hang of it, it's a great stroller for excursions on the go.

Our testers tested it on daily excursions, from quick dashes for the shops to strolls in the park and longer trips to visit family and friends abroad. It was easy to fold and carry, and was very maneuverable in any setting. It has a large shopping basket, a full-coverage hood to protect from rain and a cup holder that fits an insulated travel cup. This pushchair is ideal for babies and toddlers aged from birth to four years.

We love the fact that this is so easy to open and close, even if you're on the go or have hands filled with children. It's also a smooth pushchair and the recline feature is easy to use for young children. It does not provide the additional support that a carrycot or a bassinet offers for infants and is not suitable for use as an infant travel buggy.

We have a rigorous test process that combines the expertise of our panel along with our consumer research to create a robust buying guide. We've narrowed our list of strollers eliminating those that weigh more than 7kg and cannot fold up in a compact manner. We have also picked products that are available at various price points to accommodate different budgets. This lets you discover the ideal travel pushchair to meet your requirements.

Easy to store

When travelling with baby you're often going in and out of trains, taxis, tubes and up and down escalators or stairs therefore it's essential to select an infant stroller that is light and can easily manoeuvre and take away. It is recommended to choose a pushchair parent facing that folds flat and stand up when opened, or folded into an easy flat folding that it doesn't take up too much space in your accommodation. If you want to store the pushchair when not in use, a freestanding storage basket can be useful.

If you're looking for a stroller that is suitable from birth, the EeZeFold stroller by Graco is a great option. It features the compact fold, a hood that can protect your child from the sun and a rain-cover. It's also compatible with a car seat and can be used as part of a travel system for newborn to toddler. And there are many accessories like a bassinet or a wheeled boards or leg rests for tired toddlers.

During our tests, it was easy to maneuver and navigate cobbles and bumpy roads effortlessly. It didn't feel heavy in any way and is a huge feat for a vehicle this small and light. The only issue is that the seat does not recline. However, as it's designed to travel in a straight line, this isn't a huge issue. The handle bar is fixed at high levels and isn't much adjustable, but it still felt comfortable for short and tall adults during our test.
