Guava Family Roam Crossover Stroller

About $750Checked Oct 17, 20262 sources

Our take

A compact-folding all-terrain stroller with never-flat tires and a big canopy that handles trails well. The fold is fiddly, and first-generation Roams were recalled for brakes.

28.5 lbNever-flat tiresCompact fold

Consider instead: BOB Revolution Flex for jogging.

Before you buy

Do you need it?Must-have Most families use a stroller daily. Size and weight matter more than features: a huge stroller that doesn't fit your trunk is a common regret.
Cost per monthAbout $21 a month over a typical 36 months of use. Our estimate; your use may be shorter or longer.
Secondhand?Fine secondhand. Fine secondhand. Check the brakes and folding locks, and search the model on the CPSC recall list.
TipMeasure your trunk before you buy, and lift the folded stroller in a store if you can.
