Top Single Strollers of 2024

What exactly is a single stroller? Also referred to as a full-size single stroller, it's your sleek, one-child wonder on wheels! Unlike convertible strollers that can grow to accommodate a second child or double strollers that have two seats, these strollers are designed with only one seat, allowing one child to ride in style while you chauffeur them around town like the prince or princess they are. 

Single strollers are all about agility, convenience, and comfort. From smooth city streets to grassy parks, they're ready for action all the time. 

We've rounded up this year's top single strollers for you, so let's dive into these trendy, terrific, and triumphant strollers!

Single Stroller Benefits 

Single strollers offer many benefits, making them a popular choice for parents.  

To start, they’re noticeably lighter and more compact than their double stroller counterparts (or even convertible single-to-double strollers with two seats attached), making them a breeze to push around town. They’re also a space-saver as they fold to smaller proportions to fit snugly into your trunk (or storage space), leaving plenty of room for groceries or other essentials.  

Designed to glide through tight spaces and crowded sidewalks easily, single strollers are also lighter for lifting in and out of your car without a fuss. Unlike  travel strollers (that are even more lightweight but don't always have all the bells and whistles), full-size single strollers provide a full range of features and add-ons, ensuring your little one's comfort and safety. These strollers are perfect for everyday use!

Now, let’s take a look at this year’s top single strollers!

Bumbleride Era

SPECS: 

• Suitable from birth (seat lies flat) up to 55 lbs. 
• Weight: 27 lbs. (frame + seat)
• Unfolded Dimensions: 24.5” W x 40.5” H x 43” L

The Era Reversible Stroller is a go-anywhere companion for parents seeking adventure!  

This four-wheeled wonder from Bumbleride is built for all terrains, with air-filled tires and all-wheel suspension for the smoothest ride. Unlike most strollers, it's designed for all-age adaptability and can be used from birth without additional attachments as the seat reclines back to a true-flat position. You can also attach an infant car seat (most major brands with adapters) or the optional bassinet.

All the materials they use are carefully chosen for durability, safety, and function — but also their environmental impact. In recent years, they started using an innovative dye process that saves gallons of water and began sourcing recycled fishing nets for the plastic components in the stroller frame.

The stroller also features a fully adjustable handlebar, a UPF 45+ canopy with extra pop out extension, a self-standing fold, and comes in a variety of colours to match any sense of style.
