“I LOVE THIS STROLLER!!!”
When it was time to buy a smaller stroller, one I could easily travel with, I started doing my research and fell in love with the 2018 UPPAbaby G-LUXE. My son turned one, as of February 2019, and I will be doing a lot more traveling now that he is getting older.
The UPPAbaby G-LUXE weighs only 15 pounds and offers an impressive 3 position reclinable seat. The 2018 G-LUXE has a shoulder strap to make carrying easy and quickly folds up with the click of a button. Once folded, it will stand freely due to the convenient built-in kickstand. The handlebars are great for tall or short people. They are taller than a lot of strollers but not uncomfortable for those of us who are shorter than average.
The material is high quality and is easy to remove to clean/wash. The wheels are 5.5″ and the front has single wheels for a smooth ride and better steering control. The front wheels very are easy to remove with the simple press of a button. The one step break makes breaking quick and simple, even in sandals.
Included is a removable cup holder and a large and easy-access bottom storage bin (10 lbs. weight limit). There is an additional storage pocket for your wallet, pacifier, keys, etc. on the back of the stroller seat.
Also, included is a one year manufacturer warranty which can be extended to two years if you register online within 90 days of purchase. The 2018 UPPAbaby G-LUXE umbrella stroller is available in three colors (from top to bottom) AIDAN, JAKE, and JORDAN.
Adjustable Seat and Footrest
The G-LUXE umbrella stroller sets itself apart from other all other umbrella strollers. It offers a one-handed reclinable seat and an adjustable footrest. This provides added comfort you typically don’t find in an umbrella stroller.
Self Standing Umbrella Fold and Carry Strap
Fold with just your fingers, no foot action required. All you have to do is push the button, pull on the rings, and pull the bottom wheels up. Once folded the stroller will stand handsfree. The adjustable carry strap is an additional feature to make transporting a breeze.
Expandable Canopy
The G-LUXE Canopy is made with a water resistant material and offers an expandable sunshade with 50+ SPF protection. The canopy provides extreme coverage compared to the majority of umbrella strollers on the market.
I really wanted to have a section of this review where I could write about my personal experience with this stroller. I have covered all of the specs above and a few hot points about the stroller as well.
My number one reason why I love this stroller is how the stroller rolls. You will be pushing it and the wheels glide like warm butter on toast. All UPPAbaby products have this same feel. When you are walking down the street you will not have to worry about any squeaky noises or grinding or wiggly wheels, this stroller is made like a Rolex watch. PURE LUXURY. Hence the name G- LUXE.
My second love about this stroller is the canopy. The canopy is huge and very protective. When you pull it down it not only protects from the top but it also has great coverage on the sides as well. The 50+ SPF protection is also a great feature but then UPPAbaby had to add the additional pull down sunshade. This extra pull down shade is great to block the sun but it is also great when trying to get your baby to sleep and eliminate as many distractions as possible.
My third and final love for this stroller is the lightweight yet sturdy frame. The frame is beautiful and made of a very high quality metal which happens to also be light. The stroller weighs under 15 pounds and can be carried with the shoulder strap with ease. When breaking the stroller down its simple to do and when opening there is a nice place to kick down and snap open.
I have the UPPAbaby VISTA as well for my full size stroller but for a lightweight easy stroller this is the one for the job.
Enjoy the 2018 UPPAbaby G-LUXE
Don’t miss out on luxury just because you are looking for simplicity. You can have it all with the 2018 UPPAbaby G-LUXE umbrella stroller. I absolutely love this stroller and I know it will last me for many years to come.
