Pockit can lay claim to the title of the best foldable, compact stroller on the planet. This is a true virtue in this capitalistic market of over purchasing, where we have homes and vehicles bursting at the seams with all of the commodities we often needlessly purchase. But the Pockit Folding Stroller for a young family is by no means needless. In fact, it’s essential.

 

It has exceptional design and innovation. It was awarded the Guinness World Record for the most compact stroller in 2014. It’s so small that, when folded, it measures at 11.8 inches by 7 inches by 13.8 inches. When living in a big city, taking public transport and being constantly on the move, this is an incredibly convenient stroller to have. Being able to go from push to carry in a matter of seconds makes life in the rat race much easier.

 

The clever design uses a 2 x 2 D technique, meaning it folds into a tiny version of itself in two simple steps. And weighing only 9.5 kilograms, it’s so easy to move about those busy subways stations with this handbag-shaped contraption.

 

You might think something this small would not be durable or be able to hold much weight, but it can hold up to a 55-pound child, and the storage compartment can hold up to 11 pounds of items.

 

It’s the perfect stroller for city living; check out more of the details here.
