There’s no denying that purchasing a stroller ranks at the top of the priority list for new parents. With so many options to choose from, it can be tough to decide which stroller is the perfect one–not only do you want a product that’s great for walking through the park but you also want it to make your life easier when running errands and traveling.
For us at Tinybeans, however, there’s one stroller that checks off all the boxes: UPPAbaby’s Minu V2. The newly-released stroller, which is the upgraded model of the popular UPPAbaby Minu, has all the features a parent should look for, from quality, safety and style to ease, accessibility and space.
We’ve listed seven reasons why you can’t go wrong with this multi-use, everyday stroller.
1. Truly Lightweight and Compact
There are lightweight strollers and then there’s the Minu V2. At just 16.9 pounds, the Minu V2 is easy to lift and carry, free of strain on your body. If you're unsure of how light it actually is, think about picking up two average-sized cats, which are comparable in weight. The stroller also features compact dimensions when both folded and unfolded, leaving ample space in your trunk that former bulky strollers didn't provide.
2. It’s Easy to Use
Strollers are known for being down-right frustrating to open and close. Add a baby to your hip and you’ll find yourself struggling for a few minutes. With the Minu V2, quickly collapse and fold the stroller with the press of a button. Did we also mention that you can do this with just one hand?
3. Features Ample Storage
This year’s upgraded Minu now touts a deeper, larger, more secure and easily accessible basket. With a weight capacity of 20 pounds, you can easily store your diaper bag, snacks, excursion essentials and any items you purchase along the way.
4. A Go-To Travel Companion
This stylish yet durable buggy will become your best friend when tackling family vacations. It can be easily packed away into a convenient travel backpack, allowing you to take it with you wherever you go. Through its built-in carry handle and shoulder strap, the Minu V2 is also perfect for local visits around town, shopping trips and simple family outings.
5. Offers Double the Space (And Fun)
For families with an older toddler, the stroller’s Piggyback board gives big bro or sis a chance to ride along with their new sibling. Sold separately, the new accessory is positioned to the side instead of directly in front of the handlebar, so they can stand next to mom and dad as they push the stroller. This provides better visibility of the baby and more legroom for kiddos and parents.
6. Available in Multiple Color Palettes To Match Your Style
The UPPAbaby Minu V2 now comes in five chic colors, providing more options than its predecessor. The options include: Stella, a grey mélange with a silver frame and chestnut leather handlebar; Jake, charcoal with a carbon frame and black leather handlebar; Greyson, a charcoal mélange with a carbon frame and saddle leather handlebar; Emelia, sage green with a silver frame and chestnut leather handlebar; and Charlotte, a coastal blue with a carbon frame and saddle leather.
7. Great Durability That Grows With Your Child
A stroller that can transition with your baby as they grow from infant to toddler can save parents big bucks. With the purchase of an adapter, the UPPAbaby Bassinet is compatible with the new Minu V2, allowing your infant to comfortably rest on a flat surface. As your baby starts to age, you can position them in the spacious seat, suitable for little ones 3 months to 50 pounds. Plus: the zip-out, extendable canopy and vented peekaboo window (which provides UPF 50+ sun protection) let you keep an eye on your bundle of joy as you stroll.
