Umbrella Baby Stroller




An umbrella baby stroller is ideal for quick shopping trips or zoo adventures. These strollers are lightweight and easily transported in the trunk. Since we live in a downtown apartment, my wife and I decided to invest in a umbrella stroller for Samantha once she turned 6 months.

Maclaren Triumph Stroller

We decided to go with the Macleran Triumph because it met our needs:

  • It is very portable and light
  • Folds easily and does not take up much room
  • Has a carrying capacity of 55 lbs
  • Has a waterproof hood (perfect for our downtown living)
  • Reclinable and weighs only 11.5 lbs


    We are very satisfied with this stroller, but with so many to choose from, it's only fair to take a look at a few more. One of my favorites is the Valco Baby Latitudevalco baby stroller stroller.

    Valco Latitude Stroller

    This baby stroller reclines from a flat to an upright position. It weighs 19lbs and has a baby weight capacity of 40lbs, which is a bit less then the maclaren stroller we looked at earlier. I know a lot of parents complain that their lightweight stroller does not have enough storage capacity. I guess the Valco is in a league of its own since it has a roomy basket. It's durability and adjustable handlebars tell me that it's a high quality stroller as well.
