Want a stroller that can keep up with your busy lifestyle, but won't break your budget? Check out one of Graco's newest offerings, the Graco Ipo Stroller. We tested the Graco Ipo in Gaia, a good-looking stroller in orange and white with black accents. At first glance, it may look like a simple umbrella stroller, but don't let its streamlined design fool you; the Graco Ipo has a number of full-size stroller features.

Unlike most umbrella strollers, the Graco Ipo Stroller has a multi-position reclining seat and a canopy with a peek-through window and tinted sun visor, as well as a large underseat storage basket. We like the Graco Ipo's combination three- or five-point harness. Plus, it has something we don't usually find on an umbrella stroller: wheels with suspension for a smoother ride. The wheels on this stroller both swivel and lock in place.

The Graco Ipo Stroller has a frame that's more durable and sturdy than we anticipated. We like the ability to fold it with one hand. Thanks to its lightweight form and convenient carrying handle, it's very easy to transport. While there's a lot to love about the Graco Ipo Stroller, keep in mind that it's designed for children who've outgrown their infant-friendly strollers. To safely and comfortably use a Graco Ipo Stroller, a child should be able to sit on his own. It can be used for children up to 50 pounds.

Overall, the Graco Ipo Stroller is a convenient, lightweight stroller that's great for travel.
