 6. Keekaroo Karoo - The Keekaroo Karoo is one of Amazon.com’s best selling strollers as well as one of the highest rated. Basically almost as good as the Maclaren Quest Sport for about half the price.

 8. Jeep Cherokee Sport- The Jeep Cherokee Sport received a rating of Very Good by Consumer Reports. It is also a top rated best selling stroller on Amazon.com. If you want a decent stroller for dirt cheap then the Jeep Cherokee Sport is right along that line. It doesn’t have all the bells and whistles as the other strollers on this list but it has what you need to get the job done plus has a tray for the parent and the child. It’s still super light weight, has storage underneath, folds with 1 hand and at an unbeatable price. It’s also pretty sturdy for what you pay for.PROS

 9. Chicco Liteway- - The Chicco Liteway received a Very Good rating by Consumer Reports and a 4.2 out of 5 stars by Amazon reviewers. It is a great light-weight stroller at a great price. It’s not the lightest of strollers but it has more functions than most lightweight strollers on the market. It comes equipped with lockable front wheels for uneven terrain, a basket that converts into a backpack, a seat that can fully recline, and sturdy enough to hang light bags without tipping over. All this at an affordable price.

 10. Joovy Caboose Ultralight Tandem - Ok, yes it’s a Tandem stroller but it is the LIGHTEST and smallest Tandem on the market which is why it’s on the list. The Joovy Caboose Ultralight is also an Amazon best seller and is a top rated stroller by Amazon reviewers. It’s one of the best lightweight strollers for families with 2 kids that are a couple months apart. It is a great alternative to traditional tandem strollers yet seating can be a bit uncomfortable if you are adding an Infant sat to the stroller. Otherwise, it is remarkably light and compact.
