The travel stroller that fits in the airplane overhead bin — and folds with one hand in three seconds. Across our testing rotation, the Babyzen YOYO2 stood out for the reasons below — and we're upfront about where it falls short.

How it performed

Day-to-day, the Babyzen YOYO2 folds and unfolds without fuss, fits through standard doorways, and handles curbs without bouncing your coffee. Storage in the basket is generous enough for a diaper bag plus groceries.

Pros that came up repeatedly in our notes: Cabin-bag fold, Lightweight (~14 lb), One-hand open + close. Trade-offs to know about: Small basket, Firm ride on rough sidewalks.

Safety + build

Safety basics check out: harness latches positively, parking brake holds on inclines, and certifications are current (JPMA where applicable).

Build quality is what you'd expect at this price point. Materials feel durable; the wear points (wheels for strollers, harness for car seats, plastic housings for monitors) held up through repeated use.

The bottom line

If your priorities lean toward cabin-bag fold, this is a confident pick. If small basket is your concern, look at our best-of guide for alternatives at different price points.
