As a city mama, my mantra is lighter the better - especially when it comes to lugging strollers up and down the subway. Now that my youngest daughter is a toddler she pretty much walks but does get tired and uses our trusty Volo. During a recent event, I was beyond impressed when I had the chance to see, fell and stroll with the new Maclaren Mark II Umbrella Stroller, their lightest stroller, ever.

Held at Giggle, I loved how this lightweight (only 7.3 lbs!) was so easy to maneuver as well as ultra-sleek with some new features like a 4-wheel suspension, an ergonomic break system, and a UPF 50+ extra-large hood with a built-in sun visor. Designed for babies 6 months and up, this innovative stroller was also complete with unique attributes that parents will love such as a waterproof hood, a one-hand fold, easy foot breaks as well as the ability to fold with one hand.

Available in vibrant colors such as Carmine Rose, Midnight Navy, Silver and Spicy Orange (exclusive to Giggle), this is great stroller for travel, city living and parents that need to lighten their load. Retailing for $195 you can find it at Giggle and other retailers nationally.
