The Best Bassinet Strollers for Newborns and Infants

The UPPAbaby Cruz V2 bassinet stroller is a parent favorite for several reasons. First, it’s super simple to assemble, push and steer. "The quality is hard to beat! It can handle every single terrain we've tried (flat roads, uneven sidewalks, grass, gravel, dirt) and easily maneuvers up and down curbs or narrow paths," our product tester, the mom of a 2-month-old, told us. This bassinet stroller is packed with convenient features, such as an extendable sun canopy, an extra-large storage basket, all-wheel suspension and an adjustable handlebar. Moreover, the convertible design can be used by newborns, infants and toddlers alike. The best part, however, has to be how straightforward it is to unclip the bassinet from the stroller with just one hand, thanks to a button on the top of the handle. We’re obsessed!
