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

      Shoulder strap

      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

      Nest-to-Seat — extended parent-facing use to 30 lbs; bridges newborn and infant phases

      Foldable bumper bar — for extra security

      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.

Scent and application does not irritate my very sensitive lungs and skin
I am having excellent luck with this sunblock! I have sensitive skin and am extremely sensitive to some aerosol and scented products. This has not been an issue with me in any way. We do apply this outside for more ventilation. I have not used this on small children. This has primarily been tried by adults in my household. It’s super easy to apply, not oily, and so far is providing sun protection. I have not used this and then entered water. Our use has been for just everyday running around. It has not irritated anyone’s skin and no one has been burned by the sun- so gonna say it’s a win. This is very likely my new brand. I will update this review over the summer with how it holds up at the beach and pool. It’s doing a great job for basic outside recreation and play

Nice refreshing sunscreen
Great spray sunscreen. Don't even notice any difference between this organic sunscreen and regular sunscreen. It sprays nice and evenly and provides good protection for a reasonable time. I've used this during a number of workouts out in the sun, sweating, for a few hours at a time. It sprays pretty lightly on, and stays on. Once it sprays on, while it feels light, you do feel it (like a little sticky on your skin), same as any other sunscreen really though.

Great summer scent, easy to apply, non greasy.
We LOVE spray on sunscreen. So much easier to apply, especially to yourself in the harder to reach areas. My kids like it better too, doesn't take as long so they can get to the fun stuff. This smells great, I love summer scents. It doesn't leave you feeling greasy or like you've just tarred and feathered yourself in cream and then sand. It's an SPF 50, so extra strong and does well at protecting. I do wish it was a little cheaper, so I watch for it go on sale and stock up.

Best sunscreen ever!!!
This is the BEST SUNCREEN. It’s all we use-and I know, I know it’s expensive (standard is $30 a bottle) BUT it does go on sale quite often for like $20 ish which is what competitors run for and this is WAY cleaner. It’s made of a lot of organic ingredients and this one smells summery but they have unscented options too-that’s normally what I get! You can get spf 30 or 50 and they both work so well, never been burned wearing it. It’s a fine spray that goes on clear and dries quick-no white cast, no rubbing in. We live in a hot state that is sunny a lot of the year so we need a good sunscreen year round and this ticks all my boxes. This is the best product coola offers!! My entire family uses it.

Returning customer! :-)
Size: 2 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I love this product. The size is perfect, it smells amazing, and my skin has no reaction to it whatsoever (aside from what it’s supposed to do). So just a little background, my mother is Caucasian- my father is African American. I can either get a sun burn or get super tan- all depends on what products I use while under the sun. In the past, low quality products have given me a sunburn over a period of long sun exposure. Contrary to that, high quality products require me to apply less and will prevent me from sunburns. I do have to reapply, depending how much sun exposure I am getting. I originally purchased this product for a week long trip to Mexico with my boyfriend. I only bought 2 bottles- and we spent A LOT of time on the beach/ getting sun. We both used the sunscreen and STILL HAD LEFTOVERS after our trip (half a bottle still full). In addition, neither of us got sunburns- he got a nice sun kissed glow and I got a tan! It is TSA carry-on approved, very lightweight, and easy to use. I would recommend this product to anyone who asks! 10/10 will repurchase again :-)
