“We used this stoller on an international trip to Japan and the Philippines. We were extremely satisfied with all aspects of the stroller. Like the other reviews say, sometimes we did kick or step on the back wheels or wheel lock, but it was never a big deal and didn't cause any major problems. The stroller is very easy to push and can hold a lot - we often hung a heavy backpack on the back while our son sat in the front. The included bag was perfect for keeping the stroller protected while gate checking it, and the one time we didn't gate check it, it fit nicely in the overhead bin of a standard size airplane. We loved how compact it folds and how easy it is to fold and unfold with one hand. The lay flat feature of the seat was great and helped our 1.5 year old nap while out and about. The one thing we did not like is that due to the way the seat is shaped our son sat a little awkardly the whole time and it didn't look super comfortable for him, but he never complained and actually climbed up into the stoller a few times on his own, so he didn't seem to mind it. The basket has ample storage space, but you can't store a lot in it if you want it to fold flat, which is completely understandible. The stroller held up very well to all the travel and we would highly recommend it. We will continue to use it anytime we need a compact stroller.”

“I can't say enough good things about this stroller! I bought it 4 years ago and used it up until my toddler was too big for it. I also took it on a Europe trip when my child was a little under 2 years old. It fit in the overheard bin with no problem, it's easy to open and close, really compact while providing so many great features, and super durable. I had also purchased the newborn attachment. I have since passed both on to a friend that has a newborn and their baby loved it! I offered my friend the stroller for a trip to italy they were taking and her family loved it!”

“We’ve been using the Doona for our travel stroller but our son outgrew it. So we began our search for a lightweight stroller, that can easily fold and open, fit in the overhead compartment of a plane and have storage. We couldn’t be happier with our purchase!”

“Customer service is the worst! I’ve been asking for a return label because the stroller doesn’t work for my daughter and they have been ignoring me. The stroller was delivered last week and I am supposed to be in the 100 day free trial but that is a lie! They don’t honor what they offer!!”

“TL;DR: Great compact stroller! Loves: Ideal for on-the-go, perfect size for us, great maneuverability, excellent customer service. Meh: Buckle takes some getting used to & adjusting the recline is meh. COMPETITIVE STATS: - meets the highest child weight limit on the market (55 lb) - was the heaviest stroller we considered (16.1 lb) - priced 15-35% less than comparable styles on the market THINGS WE WANTED & WHAT THE COMPACT OFFERED: For Us: - one handed collapse: yes - intuitive place to grab / lift once folded: yes - adjustable handle height: no (my husband is 6'4") - fit in overhead bin: yes (according to specs, but I have not taken it on a plane yet) - travel bag included: yes - generous storage basket: yes (according to reviews); sorta (according to me :) ) For Baby: - calf rest: yes - recline: yes LOVES: - Overall dimensions: great! it is so much more compact than our uppababy vista and is our go-to stroller for errands and car trips. the size is perfect - it even fit in our front seat comfortably during our road trip last weekend, when our car was packed to the gills - Maneuverability: great! makes great tight turns, and can squeeze through narrow spaces in stores. - Ride: good. I am a bit picky here, so I don't know if any stroller would ever get more than a "good" rating from me. I noticed it was a bit bumpy/wobbly feeling, but my husband pointed out that the brake has to be COMPLETELY released (press down on it firmly), or else it wobbles the front wheels a bit. - Cleaning: I have not washed any of the components yet, but I do LOVE that this is one of the few (possibly only?) option I looked at that had a fully removable and machine washable seat. That is so important to me, so I'm really happy that it's an option. - 100-Day Trial: This is what sold me on going with the Colugo. So many things for your baby/family need to be actually used to know if it will simply work for your family, AND with so many baby stores no longer being around in person, it is a real risk to spend several hundred dollars on something that may not be the right fit. To me, this meant that Colugo actually cared about gaining customers by offering the opportunity to try them out. All customer service interactions I've had with them to date have been excellent, quick, and exceeded expectations. This aspect is definitely what will make me proactively recommend Colugo to others. CRITIQUES: My critiques are minor! - Buckle: I knew going in that the magnetic buckle is something that isn't universally loved - and I still struggle with it, but it has been getting easier each time. And, the magnet then makes it SUPER easy to then buckle them IN, which I do appreciate. - Adjusting the recline: the recline is manual and baby needs to be OUT of the stroller to properly return the seat to sitting position. recline is via an adjustable slider buckle to tighten/shorten the straps (for seated) or to release/lengthen the straps (for recline). I didn't look into this carefully during my stroller research, because I foolishly assumed a "button" to adjust the recline was standard - apparently not. This manual recline mechanism is a pain IMO, and I could see it being clunky if I try to recline the seat while baby is sleeping. But, the stroller ticks so many of the other boxes I'm looking for, I think I can live with this. - Some of the straps, loops, hooks on the back of the stroller are a bit confusing / not intuitive and seem to hang off. I need to re-check the manual to make sure I have everything where it should be, but I can't tell if these features are useful enough to merit the bulk or if it's more of a pain. For context, I researched 11 different stroller options. In the end, our top contenders to the Colugo Compact were: Joolz Aer+ (~$360) Ergobaby Metro Plus (~$200) Baby Jogger City Tour 2 (~$170)”
