If you’re a city dweller, a minimalist or have packed rooms already, you’ll love this list of awesome baby products that are big on features but small enough to fit in most spaces.

We love portable high chairs like this clip-on model from Phil & Teds. It attaches onto counters or tables, takes up no floor space and folds compactly into a carry bag you can travel with and take to restaurants.

Named the world’s smallest folded stroller in the Guinness Book of World Records, this ultra-compact ride is handy for urban families and avid travelers. It stands upright when folded so you can tuck it into a closet at home and find space for it in a restaurant. It even fits into an airplane overhead compartment. And at 9.5 pounds, you can cart it around wherever your travels take you. It’s meant for babies 6 months and older, so it doesn’t recline for newborns.
