Quicksmart Backpack Lightweight Stroller

I have an Orbit stroller that I LOVE but needed something smaller to use for travel purposes. My family lives in Texas and my mom has a car seat for my daughter there so I don't need to lug a big travel system with me. This was the perfect solution! I love the fact that I can carry it on the plane so I don't have to wait for my stroller at the gate. It's also great for tall people! I'm 5'11 so it was hard finding a lightweight stroller that was comfortable for me to use. It doesn't have a cross bar between the back wheels so I'm not constantly kicking it and the handle bar is tall enough that I don't have to slouch! I'll still use my Orbit for our big walks and outings but the QuickSmart is the best backup for travel!!! The only downside is that the seat doesn't lean back but that doesn't seem to bother my little one.

Exactly as described. Extremely Lightweight. Easy to fold and fit in backpack. Great for taller children and parents. Might be uncomfortable to push for under 5'4

Love this stroller, so I'm giving it 5 stars despite some shortcomings. Pros: - super compact; the smallest out there besides the Quinny Zapp (debatably smallest; depends on how you measure); fits into overhead compartment of even a small commuter prop plane and takes up a tiny fraction of our Corolla trunk -- now that airlines are charging $70 per round trip to check a 2nd bag and are reducing the number of baby items you can take along for free, if you take this on about two vacations, it'll pay for itself -- but I'm getting extra use out of the stroller by keeping it in our trunk for quick trips to the mall, etc., as it leaves plenty of room in there for purchases - the only stroller out there (that I could find) that comes with a backpack; we used it in "house museums" in Charleston and Savannah (one of us carried the baby and the other the backpack in the house, and the baby was in the stroller before and after the tours), and it'll be great for when he can walk but gets tired easily -- stroller on my back when he's walking, and unpacked when he's tired - great size when unfolded; plenty of headroom left for our tall 1-year-old boy - decent center of gravity, so you can put a medium-light bag over the handlebars (to make up for the lack of storage basket) and it won't tip (but user guide warns against putting bags on handlebars) - steering is easy and comfortable except on uneven pavement (e.g., cobblestones), where the front wheels can get stuck easily (this is probably a problem with all 3-wheel-type strollers other than pneumatic jogging strollers) - can be folded and unfolded with one hand, though it's much easier with two (to bring the seat-back up, you have to go back and forth pressing the big buttons if working with one hand) - cool mod design in Geometric Midnight pattern (I'd call the main color a bluish charcoal), though the script "quicksmart" all over the fabric is a little annoying, and the fabric isn't machine washable Cons: - seat shape looks a little uncomfortable -- the butt part comes forward, which makes our little guy's back all hunched, but he was still able to sleep in the stroller (and he's not normally a good sleeper) - small sun canopy (understandably -- it's a super-compact stroller!), though the Protect-a-Bub Deluxe 3-in-1 Sunshade works fine tied around the back (it helps to use a clothespin or two to clip the sunshade onto the canopy at a good angle) - deceptively wide wheel base -- you can run into objects on the side of the stroller if you're not careful (but the wide wheelbase makes the stroller nice and stable) - harness and brakes a little finicky (must be positioned just so in order to work, and harness buckle can pinch parents' fingers) - instructions (paper manual plus fabric instructions sewn onto the stroller) seem to be out of date -- they don't mention that to get the side wheels to fold over, you need to pull down the gray sleeves next to the wheels; I struggled a lot until I figured that out - the backpack requires applying a lot of pressure to the stroller to get the zipper closed, and the first or second time I put the stroller into the backpack, I noticed that the seam around the zipper was coming apart (we'd put a small item in the backpack along with the stroller, which shouldn't have affected things, but maybe it did contribute to stretching the seam to excess?); still, the backpack works fine with a safety pin (or if I bothered to sew the crack shut) - suspension is a little bouncy (doesn't seem to bother anyone, though) Overall, a great stroller. Works very well folded and unfolded. Saved us the financial cost of checking a stroller on airplanes and saves us the "space cost" of filling up our car trunk. Highly recommended (especially if the company works to fix the relatively minor flaws)!

Stroller fits in the trunk of the Fiat and even behind the front passenger seat! Nice and tall joined handle so I don't need to bend down much and can even steer with one hand if I have to. Comfortable for Dilan, light and super compact. I love it. Well done.

This is a perfect travel stroller for my little one, and he seems to love it, too. It is so light weight and easy to get out and put back into the backpack. The backpack is high quality, and appears to be something that will last. I am so glad to be able to go here and there without having to drag around my big stroller! Thank you Quicksmart!

I just wished it reclined a little. Also, to put it back into the back you have to tug a bit. Other than that, It's an awesome little stroller.
