The UPPAbaby G-Luxe is an umbrella stroller that manages to pack several great features into its highly portable eleven pounds. Most notably, it offers an adjustable recline that is completely customizable from upright to 120 degrees; many comparable strollers only offer two or three pre-set recline positions. It has a good sun canopy with an SPF-50 visor, and stands upright when folded (a feature that parents report is especially convenient for storing in limited closet space). Taller parents enjoy its ergonomic handles and a frame design that leaves ample space to stride without kicking the stroller accidentally.

Other user-friendly features include a cup holder that can be positioned on either side of the stroller and an accessible storage basket. There’s also a shoulder strap for those moments when carrying a 23-pound baby, a loaded diaper bag, and a stroller would be otherwise impossible. The UPPAbaby G-Luxe stroller also has a relatively user-friendly price point compared to similarly featured strollers. Some parents report that the reclining and collapsing mechanisms take a little getting used to; as with any stroller, playing with these features before you need them “on the go” will cut down on frustration. Although it steers and handles well, its wheels are typical small umbrella stroller wheels, not suitable for irregular terrain; however, it’s a great stroller for travel, shopping, and everyday use.
