Bugaboo Butterfly 2: A Smarter, Stylish Travel Essential

The Bugaboo Butterfly 2 is Bugaboo’s lightest stroller yet, tipping the scale at just about 16 lb (~7.3 kg), making it a top-tier travel stroller choice. An award-winner—Red Dot Best of the Best 2025—it folds down in one second into a compact package that fits most airplane overhead compartments. Function meets comfort with a fully flat recline for napping, an adjustable footrest, back-of-seat pocket, under-seat storage up to 8 kg, and full suspension with larger wheels — perfect for city streets or cobblestone if adventurous strolling is your thing.

• Ultra-light, ultra-compact, and airplane-ready—for families on the move.

• Thoughtful storage, comfort, and suspension built for everyday ease and adventure.

 

Stokke YOYO³: Compact Luxury for Urban Families

The Stokke YOYO³ builds on the iconic YOYO travel stroller legacy with refined upgrades. It stays featherlight—around 13.6 lb—meeting carry-on standards easily. The YOYO³ brings expanded canopy coverage, mesh ventilation, taller backrests, enhanced basket capacity, reflective wheels, and renewed suspension for smoother rides over uneven paths. Stylish and practical, it balances airy urban walks with thoughtful upgrades that serve families in-the-know.

• Lighter than Butterfly 2 and refined for everyday strolling in the city.

• Superior comfort touches—from canopy to suspension—make every walk feel premium.

FAQs

What makes the Bugaboo Butterfly 2 travel-stroller-friendly?

The Bugaboo Butterfly 2 folds in just one second into a compact carry-on size, self-standing and lightweight at around 16 lb (~7.3 kg), which allows easy travel whether you’re navigating airports or hopping taxis. Its full recline, sturdy suspension, and generous storage (up to 8 kg under-seat plus back pocket) mean you don’t compromise comfort or functionality. Add in sustainable materials—like 60% recycled aluminum and bio-based plastics—and you’ve got a sleek, responsible ride that’s designed for real parent life.

 

Why do parents love the Stokke YOYO³ for city strolls?

The Stokke YOYO³ stands out thanks to its featherlight frame (~13.6 lb) and ultra-compact fold that fits in overhead bins and small trunks. Upgraded canopy, ventilation, basket space, and suspension add comfort—while thoughtful touches like longer backrests and reflective wheels elevate daily outings. Ideal for condo hallways, quick café stops, or tight storage, the YOYO³ is built for families who move fast and light.

 

How do the strollers stack up in terms of storage and practicality?

The Butterfly 2 offers a roomy underseat basket (up to 8 kg) plus a back-pocket for essentials—great when you’re juggling gear on the go. The YOYO³ upgraded its basket capacity significantly (from YOYO²) and still folds flat for easy storage. Choose Butterfly 2 when storage matters most; YOYO³ when you need compact practicality.

 

Which stroller is more eco-conscious?

The Bugaboo Butterfly 2 takes the lead on sustainability—it cuts CO₂ emissions by 37% compared to its predecessor and uses recycled and bio-based materials. While the YOYO³ focuses more on usability and comfort, its environmental design isn’t highlighted in the same way.
