5. Graco 3D Lite
stroller travelThis stroller has a lot to offer a single child model. It features a quick one-second fold and an expandable basket with cup holders for parents. It comes with an adjustable tray for the child and a 5-point safety harness. Its drawback is that it's not able to recline completely, so it's not the ideal choice for babies (use from 6 mo+).
This is the cheapest in this review. It's lightweight and has a high seat that gives your child a good view. It's not as sturdy as more expensive models and can struggle on uneven surfaces, such as cobblestones. It also has two front wheels that can be moved to the side if they encounter obstacles.
The 3D Lite has a small storage bin that can hold a moderate-sized backpack diaper bag and it also has a peekaboo window in the canopy. The sunshade is small and may be the smallest and does not extend beyond the back of your child's. It does, however, have a sun visor that can be removed.
The frame has a 5-point harness that is padded on the seat and the frame comes with an adjustable shoulder strap that allows you to carry it when folded. It's not as compact as the TraveLite but it still folds very quickly.
It comes with three recline positions, but not all the way down (use from 6 months+). The brakes on the 3D Lite are stiffer than those of most competitors and require both sides are pressed to fully engage. Overall, 3DLite's quality is good for its price. It's better than budget-friendly Kolcraft cloud plus, but not as good as some of the more expensive competitors.
