BABYZEN YOYO2 6+ Review (2027)
In-depth review of the BABYZEN YOYO2 6+: 13.4 lb one-hand fold, overhead-bin size, UPF 50+ canopy, and elastomer suspension.
BABYZEN YOYO2 6+ Stroller
Overhead-bin fold with a shoulder strap and storage bag.
Our verdict
The YOYO2 is the polished end of travel strollers: a one-hand fold to overhead-bin size, a shoulder strap and storage bag in the box, and suspension that keeps city rides civilized. This listing is the 6+ seat configuration, so newborn use needs the separate pack, and the fixed handlebar height will not suit every parent.
What we like
- Folds to 20.5 x 17.3 x 7.1 in and fits overhead bins
- One-hand fold and unfold with a carry strap included
- Multi-position recline and UPF 50+ water-repellent canopy
- Hytrel elastomer suspension smooths pavement bumps
What to watch out for
- Seat unit is for 6 months and up in this configuration
- Handlebar height is fixed, tall parents may stoop
- Small wheels are happiest on flat city surfaces
What owners report: BABYZEN YOYO2 6+ Stroller
Synthesized from recurring themes in long-term owner feedback.
Most praised
- The tiny fold and carry strap make it a daily companion on buses, trains, and stairs
- Unfolding one-handed at a gate or curb is a trick owners show other parents
- The elastomer suspension keeps pavement rides smoother than its small wheels suggest
Common complaints
- This seat configuration starts at six months, so newborn use needs the separate pack
- A fixed handlebar height leaves tall parents stooping on long walks
- Small wheels prefer flat city surfaces and complain on gravel or grass
Who it is for
City parents and frequent travelers who fold, carry, and store a stroller daily.
Fold and carry
At 20.5 x 17.3 x 7.1 in folded and 13.4 lb, the YOYO2 goes over a shoulder with its included strap and into overhead bins, coat closets, and cafe corners. The one-hand fold and unfold is the feature owners use most, several times a day.
Ride and seat
Hytrel elastomer suspension takes the edge off pavement, the backrest reclines through multiple positions, and the UPF 50+ water-repellent canopy handles sun and drizzle. The harness is a padded 5-point, and the basket carries up to 11 lb of daily gear.
Where it compromises
The 6+ seat starts at 6 months; newborns need the separate 0+ pack. The handlebar does not adjust for height, and the small wheels are happiest on flat city surfaces rather than gravel or grass.

Questions, answered
Is this the newborn version?
No. This listing is the 6+ configuration with the seat for babies from 6 months. Newborn use requires the separate YOYO 0+ newborn pack.
Does it really fit overhead bins?
Its folded size of 20.5 x 17.3 x 7.1 in is designed to, and it is accepted as cabin baggage by many airlines. Low-cost carriers vary, so verify your airline's cabin rules.
