Joolz's Aer+ Compact Travel Stroller is a lightweight travel stroller that is airplane-compatible. I was searching high and low for a travel stroller that even infants could use because I didn't want to bring a full-size stroller. Most travel strollers are for children 6 months old and up. I went into Traveling Tikes Baby Shop located at 9154 W Olympic Blvd, Beverly Hills, CA, and I've gotten so many good traveling tips and product recommendations that suited my traveling needs. I told the salesperson that I intended to bring a car seat, and she told me I could attach the car seat to a travel stroller.
I have the Pipa RX from Nuna, and it is FAA-certified for aircraft use, so I really wanted to bring the car seat.
The two most popular travel strollers are the Butterfly stroller from Bugaboo and the Aer+ stroller from Joolz. They cost the same, but the Aer+ is lighter than the Butterfly. I was advised while shopping at Traveling Tikes that both the Butterfly and Aer+ are compatible with the Pipa RX car seat as long as I use adapters.
I ultimately went with the Aer+ in Sage Green because it was lighter and the color matched my car seat better.
The Sage Green color is closer to beige with a hint of olive.
When folded, the stroller is so compact! Measuring 53x45x23cm when folded, the Aer+ fits most overhead compartments, making it super travel-friendly.
The stroller has a carry strap, so you can carry it on your shoulders as you're boarding the plane.
I love the handle. It's wrapped in vegan leather and feels very comfortable. The handle is available in different colors depending on the fabric finishes. The sage green has a matte black handle, and it's so stylish!
I admit - the storage basket is not as spacious as I had hoped it to be; however, that is to be expected from travel strollers. You have to let go of several convenience features that full-size strollers come with.
The canopy provides great coverage.
I attached the adapters to get the car seat installed. These adapters flip 180 degrees when I'm folding the stroller, so I won't have to remove them every time I'm folding the stroller. This was a huge plus and another deciding factor because, with the Butterfly, I needed to remove the adapters.
The wheels are compact but have enough suspension to make maneuvering easy and stable.
You can adjust the recline positions by unzipping the back and tightening the straps.
You also need to unzip the back when you're attaching the car seat to allow for proper clearance.
The car seat attaches securely. The car seat and stroller are from two different brands, but the fabrics match harmoniously. The carry handle on the Nuna Pipa RX has a green undertone, and it looks so nice!
I see myself using this stroller whenever I'm going out with my baby and not just for traveling - running errands, hospital visits, or mid-day strolls around the park. Just unfold this ultra-lightweight stroller, attach the car seat, and go about the day.
