by Joolz · Red Dot Award Winner 2025 · Babesta Pick — Best Subway-Friendly Stroller for NYC Families

The Joolz Aer2 is an ultra-compact travel stroller built for life between subway platforms and walkup apartments. At 14.3 lbs with a one-second, one-hand fold that’s compact enough for an airplane overhead bin, it’s the rare lightweight stroller that doesn’t ask you to sacrifice ride quality to get the weight down — suitable from birth all the way to 50 lbs.

As NYC’s expert baby boutique, this is one of our top picks for city families: subway-friendly, easy for frequent travelers, ideal for smaller apartments and walkups, and perfect for pre-school drop-off. For parents-to-be building a registry, the Aer2 is a must-have.

Best For/Not For

Best For

      NYC subway families who need to fold one-handed while holding a child or a coffee

      Frequent travelers — folded dimensions are IATA compliant for overhead bins

      Apartment dwellers, especially walkups, where weight and compactness matter most

      Taller parents, thanks to the 42″ handlebar

      Families wanting a one-and-done lightweight newborn pram

      A solo stroller for car-free city families, or a second stroller alongside a full-size

Not Ideal For

      Rough terrain, jogging, or heavy daily-use families where a full-size suspension stroller suits better

      Parents who load up the basket on every outing — at 17.6 lbs, it’s smaller than full-size strollers

Is It Suitable for My Baby’s Age?

Newborn (0–6 months)

Yes — with the seat fully reclined and the included baby net. For true lie-flat comfort, add the Joolz Aer2 Carry Cot (folds flat with the stroller attached) or the Nest-to-Seat for extended parent-facing use to 30 lbs.

Infant (6–12 months)

Yes — reclined or relaxed seat position with adjustable leg rest and a padded 5-point harness.

Toddler (1–4 years)

Yes — upright seat, kick space, and leg rest support comfortably up to 50 lbs.

Is It Good for NYC / City Use?

Yes — this is one of Babesta’s top recommendations for city parents. It folds in one second while holding a child or a coffee. The included shoulder strap means hands-free carrying on subway stairs, a feature that matters most at a crowded station during rush hour. At 14.3 lbs, it’s light enough to lift in and out of cabs and rideshares without breaking stride, and the suspension wheels handle cracked NYC sidewalks better than most ultra-compact strollers in this class.

Compared to other ultra-compacts, the Aer2 is lighter than the UPPAbaby Minu V3 and Bugaboo Butterfly 2, and offers more newborn-readiness options than the Stokke Yoyo — without sacrificing ride quality.

Car Seat Compatibility

Adapter Required (sold separately)

Clek Liing, Bugaboo Turtle Air Shield, select Cybex, Nuna — ask the Babesta team for the correct adapter for your brand

No-Adapter Option

Use the Joolz Aer2 Carry Cot or Nest-to-Seat for a travel system without an infant car seat

 

What’s Included

      Joolz Aer2 stroller

      Baby net

      Travel pouch

      10-year transferable warranty

Optional Add-Ons Available at Babesta

      Joolz Aer2 Carry Cot / Bassinet — for newborn lie-flat use; folds flat with stroller attached

      Basket bag (underseat organizer) — for additional storage

      Car seat adapters for select Maxi-Cosi, Cybex, Clek, and Nuna car seats — for travel system use

      Footboard with seat — for older siblings

Why Babesta Carries It

As a curated store, we don’t carry everything — we only choose what really works for city life. Most ultra-compact strollers make trade-offs: light but flimsy, or compact but hard to fold one-handed. The Aer2 is the rare one that gets all three right. The one-hand fold is genuinely one-second; we’ve tested it on Warren Street outside our store. The basket is larger than competitors in this weight class, and the 10-year transferable warranty means it holds resale value better than almost anything else in this category.

The Red Dot Award 2025 also signals something practical: the engineering decisions behind the fold, the handlebar feel, and the fabric were made with real intentionality. If you want one stroller that works from the hospital to the airport to the subway, this is it.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use this as my only stroller?

Yes for most city families, especially with the Carry Cot accessory for the newborn phase. If you live in a walkup, take the subway regularly, or travel frequently, the Aer2 is a strong solo stroller choice over a full-size. If you want more ride quality for long daily walks in a park-heavy neighborhood, consider pairing it with a full-size stroller.

Does it work with infant car seats?

Yes, with separately sold car seat adapters. Compatible brands available at Babesta include Clek Liing, Bugaboo Turtle Air Shield, and select Cybex. Other compatible brands include Nuna and Maxi-Cosi. Ask our team for the right adapter for your car seat, as compatibility varies by specific model.

Is it suitable for jogging?

No — this is a travel and urban stroller, not a jogging stroller. For jogging, ask the Babesta team about dedicated jogging stroller options.

Does it really fit in an airplane overhead bin?

Yes — the Aer2 is IATA compliant at its folded dimensions of 17.3″ × 20.8″ × 9.2″. It’s one of the few strollers you can gate-check and retrieve at the jet bridge, or in some cases carry on directly. Confirm with your specific airline before travel.

Can I try it in person?

Yes — the Joolz Aer2 is on the floor at Babesta Tribeca, 56 Warren Street. Our team can demonstrate the one-second fold, fit the harness, and roll it on the pavement outside so you can feel the suspension for yourself.

Can I put this on my baby registry?

Yes — the Joolz Aer2 is a registry favorite at Babesta. It makes getting around the city and around the world much easier. A Babesta registry comes with exclusive perks and services, and our team can advise on which Aer2 accessories to add based on your lifestyle.

Good set of clubs for beginners to find out if golf is their game! You'll need a putter, though.
Hand Orientation: Right, Color: Blue/Black
This nice inexpensive set is great for a beginner at golf, which is me--never played before. I don't evem know if I'm going to like playing, but at least I have a set of clubs so that I can give it a try...it's the exercise from walking the course that appeals to me. My son says he can teach me, even using mens clubs. I figure if I like the game, I can get a nicer set of ladies clubs and pass this set to my grandson. If I don't like the game, I can still pass the set along to my grandson! My son thought these clubs were decent weight and quality and well worth the price...the only thing missing was a putter, but we found a cheaper one to add to the set.

Solid Paddle Solid Price
Color: Blue*1
I am a beginner with Pickleball. However, I started using a $5 from 5 below and this paddle was a huge upgrade. The grip felt really good, solid in my hand with a little cushion. It was a solid and much sturdier than the previous paddle. This was a small investment in a great hobby that anyone can enjoy. I also think they really take care of you by giving you a case so it does not get scratched. I highly recommend. There truly was no downside I could think of to getting this. If you are a beginner like me, its a quality paddle at a quality price. no brainer

Just what you need!
Color: Green Black*4, Color: Green Black*4
This set is just what we needed for the 4 of us to play a nice game of pickleball. The quality is good, the carrying case keeps it all organized, and we keep it conveniently in the trunk of our car. It’s held up well even though it’s taken some beatings. Unless you’re a professional, it’s just what you need! Nice grip, handle is the right size, the weight is light; making it easy to use, and it’s created no issues with gameplay. Great deal for good quality equipment!

Pickleball Pandemonium: A Hilarious Mother’s Day Misadventure with a Top-Notch Paddle Set
Color: Blue*4
Let me spin you a tale of how I, the hopeful boyfriend of my girlfriend with two adorable-but-feral nieces, ages 3 and 5, tried to be the cool guy on Mother’s Day with this USAPA-approved fiberglass pickleball set. Spoiler: it was less “heartwarming family moment” and more “backyard dodgeball with extra chaos.” This set, though? Absolute gold for adults—just don’t hand it to toddlers unless you’re ready to star in a slapstick comedy. So, picture me, all bright-eyed, pulling out this slick pickleball set at my girlfriend’s sister’s place. The kit comes with paddles, balls, and a good-quality case that’s sturdy enough to survive a trip through an airport baggage claim. I’m thinking I’ll set up a mini court, show the nieces what pickleball’s all about, and maybe earn some “best boyfriend” points. In my head, it’s all slow-mo high-fives and cute kid giggles. In reality? I handed those paddles to the girls, and it was like arming gremlins with medieval weaponry. These paddles are *chef’s kiss* for grown-ups. The fiberglass surface gives a satisfying pop when you hit the ball, and the handles? Oh, they feel nice—comfy grips with just the right amount of cushion, like shaking hands with a friendly lumberjack. Plus, they’ve got some good weight to them—not so heavy you’re winded, but enough heft to feel like you’re swinging something legit. The balls are what you’d expect: standard, bouncy, perforated orbs that do their job without any surprises. But for kids? Disaster. The 5-year-old, who I’m calling Paddle-Wielding Warlord, grabs her paddle and swings it like she’s auditioning for *Gladiator*. First shot, she nearly takes out her 3-year-old sister, Tiny Catapult, who’s just vibing with her own paddle. I’m ducking near-headshots, yelling, “Gentle! Gentle!” while my girlfriend’s cackling so hard she’s got tears. Then there’s the ball situation. I lob one softly, thinking they’ll tap it back. Nope. Warlord yeets it across the yard like she’s gunning for the moon. It’s gone—probably chilling in the neighbor’s birdbath. Tiny Catapult, not one to be outdone, hurls her entire paddle, which spins through the air like a rogue frisbee. Flowerpots are in peril, my girlfriend’s sister is shouting about her azaleas, and I’m just trying to keep the nieces from turning this into a full-on demolition derby. The case, bless its durable heart, sat there safely holding the spare balls, mocking my poor life choices. Later, when the kids were safely bribed with ice cream and the adults got a turn, the set shone. My girlfriend and I rallied in the driveway, and those paddles felt like an extension of my arm—smooth, balanced, and ready for action. The USAPA approval means you could take these to a real court and not look like a chump. But for the toddler crowd? Yikes. Get those foam kiddie paddles that can’t double as blunt objects. This set’s a 10/10 for adult fun, with a bomb-proof case and gear that feels pro-level. Just don’t expect the under-6 crew to do anything but turn your yard into a *Mad Max* reenactment.
