Ergobaby Metro Lightweight Baby Stroller, Compact Stroller with Easy One-Hand Fold, Stroller: Grey

I’m looking for a unicorn stroller to replace my City Mini GT, which is delightful to push and maneuver but heavy to lift up and down stairs and big to store in our city apartment. I want something lightweight to carry, okay to push with a 20+ lb kid, and that can fold small for travel and storage. I bought the Metro since I can’t try in stores yet. It looks great, except for the poly-knit canopy that definitely wouldn’t block drizzle (and I live in the PNW). The open and close are smooth minus the last push to close the latch. The seat padding is plush, almost as good as the GT. The frame narrows along the back, so this isn’t good for broader-shouldered kids, and made the canopy feel narrow and a little claustrophobic. I could deal with this, but I tried adding some weight and pushing and the Metro could not handle it. It felt like I was doing a lot of work to push on smooth floors, so I can’t imagine using on uneven concrete or up hills. And the Metro makes little creaks that my 4 year old GT does not have. Ergobaby did great with style and fold on this but they need to make a stroller that is nice to push. I also got a City Tour 2 to try and will probably end up keeping it even though the seat is less padded and the latch is finicky because it handles pretty well with and without weight in the seat. And it doesn’t have any creaks when you push it.

It’s comfortable for the child and easy to push for a parent, will work good for parents taller parents as well I think, it will fit into Babyzen yoyo’s bag if you don’t get it tighten up at the top (it will be completely open), it doesn’t stand on its own, it is easy to take of everything and wash it, you can’t put anything on the hood as it’s just not holding it’s shape if you do so (I used to do it with our yoyo) , it will work for a parent who would use this stroller for everyday stroll around the city who doesn’t use car a lot but takes flights time to time. It folds small but requires some additional steps I didn’t have to do with my yoyo (control the position of the footrest every time you fold/unfold it for compact fold), and push the buggy to get it locked (which works easier if the basket is removed). So we have retired it due to in our case if was supposed to be folded several times a day..The photos picture folded metro babyjogger city tour 2 2019 and babyjogger city tour 2016 (I’ve written a review for those as well). We ended up replacing our stolen 3 year old yoyo with neither yoyo.

This stroller is absolutely amazing when it comes to portability and light weight! We are living in Germany and it fits perfectly into all the small places in restaurants and local transportation (trains and buses while still open). This thing zooms through narrow isles in stores like a champ. There is a little squeaking noise that my husband cannot hear which is coming from the wheels, but it’s nothing significant enough to drop this review to a one star. The only complaint I have are the leg rest position buttons, they are super difficult to press and both must be engaged (pressed in) to lift/lower the leg rest. Aside from that only issue, I would buy this stroller over and over again and would recommend it to anyone looking for a comfy minimalist stroller which is easy to open and still looks stylish!

I got this for my grand baby in January, but during the following few months when my grand baby was in the stroller the left side of the stroller collapsed several times. I have been going back and forth with customer service for a fix or refund, but customer service insists on seeing the collapse being repeated. Without putting the baby into the stroller and taking him for a ride over the terrain, that is impossible. It does not happen on demand, so customer service will not refund the money spent on purchase. We had to buy a different stroller and this one stands unused. I am disappointed in this stroller and need to warn others to be cautious of putting a baby/toddler in this stroller. The collapse of the side would put your child in danger.

We live in the Caribbean where the sidewalks that exist are often very small and in bad shape, yet this stroller rolls there perfectly and it’s easy to maneuver. Big plus for the storage in the back where I can keep a rain cover, a blanket and a mosquito net. Before buying I was comparing it to the popular yoyo, the metro has more features yet it’s half the price. Only downside is that the canopy doesn’t give full body sun protection, but I noticed all compact travel strollers seem to have that problem so I’m still giving it 5 stars.

We needed a travel buggy that folds easily and is not a hassle to carry around when running around London and is also air travel friendly. We were considering pockit, yoyo+ and this one - Ergobaby wins, hands down. Main reasons for this are one hand fold (pretty essential when you're juggling holding your little one and folding the buggy at a busy tube station), lie flat (out of all of the buggies in the run it's the only one that lays almost completely flat), leg support and the fact that when folded you can take it with you on the plane as a carry on.

This travel stroller is amazing and I'm so glad we bought it. Since it's new, there weren't that many reviews when I purchased it so I was skeptical but I have no regrets! This was perfect for our 1 year old on our recent vacation. So easy to fold and unfold. Very lightweight with great maneuverability in the airport and lines. Fits in the overhead bin on the airplane as advertised which is great and convenient. She was very comfortable in it. Fantastic umbrella shade with great coverage unlike many other strollers. I highly recommend also buying the backpack that goes with the stroller. A must have for travel with a little one.

Had a larger "all terrain" type stroller but after moving to a new place where you had to walk up and down a flight of stairs and navigate a crowded metro everyday it wasn't cutting it. Did some research and settled on this one and the product lives up to the reputation that you can collapse it while holding the child. Sturdy enough for a commute but small enough to ride the escalator or sit out of the way when you need it to. The change meant losing a lot of storage space but really the point is I haven't used the old stroller since.
