The Inglesina Quid 3 is a strong travel stroller for the price. At $399 and 14 lb, it folds with one hand to 15.5 x 7.5 x 23 in and fits most overhead bins, per Inglesina. The seat holds a child to 55 lb, and the 22 lb basket is generous for its size. Babylist owners rate it 4.9 out of 5. The downsides are small 5.5 and 6.5 in wheels, a recline that stops at 150 degrees and a basket some reviewers find hard to reach.
Who is the Inglesina Quid 3 for?
The Inglesina Quid 3 is for parents who want a light stroller for trips, errands and car-heavy days. Inglesina lists it at $399 and 14 lb and says it fits the overhead compartment of most airplanes. The seat is rated to 55 lb, so it can last into the preschool years. It is the newer version of the Quid 2, and Babylist now lists only the Quid 3. A newborn can ride only in a compatible infant car seat on the Quid 3 adapter, sold separately, because the seat reclines to 150 degrees rather than flat. If you want one stroller for every surface, a full-size model with bigger wheels will feel steadier. As a second stroller or a family's travel stroller, the Quid 3 covers a lot of ground for the price.
How does the Quid 3 ride and steer?
The Inglesina Quid 3 rolls on small wheels: 5.5 in at the front and 6.5 in at the back, per Inglesina, with dual front wheel suspension, according to Babylist. Inglesina describes improved wheels for a smooth ride on any terrain. Babylist owners consistently say it is smooth to push and easy to steer, and ShopSavvy's summary of professional and owner reviews praises easy one-hand steering. Small wheels like these do best on airport floors, malls and smooth sidewalks. On gravel, grass or cracked pavement, expect more bumps and more effort than with a full-size stroller. Inglesina does not describe it as suitable for running, so treat it as a walking stroller only.

How big is the Quid 3 when folded?
Inglesina lists the Inglesina Quid 3 at 14 lb, while ShopSavvy's summary reports an actual weight of 14.6 lb. It folds with one hand to 15.5 x 7.5 x 23 in by Inglesina's spec table, though the product description on the same page gives 18.3 x 23.2 x 7.5 in. You press a button under the handlebar to fold it, and the bumper bar can be stored inside the folded stroller. A carry strap helps you sling it over your shoulder. Inglesina says a kickstand on the frame lets it stand on its own when folded, though ShopSavvy's summary says it does not always stand, and the handlebar does not fold down. It fits easily in a small trunk or a hall closet.
Is the Quid 3 comfortable and safe?
The Inglesina Quid 3 seat reclines from 110 degrees upright to 150 degrees, per Inglesina. That is fine for naps, but not flat enough for a young baby, so newborns need an infant car seat on the adapter. Babylist lists a seat 11.8 in wide, a five-point harness and an XL canopy with UPF 50+ fabric, a magnetic peekaboo window and a mesh ventilation window. One Babylist owner wished for a deeper seat. ShopSavvy's summary says the calf rest has only up and down positions and the mesh window magnets can be unreliable. The seat is rated to 55 lb.
How much storage does the Quid 3 have?
Inglesina rates the Inglesina Quid 3 basket at 22 lb, a high figure for a 14 lb stroller. Inglesina says the basket is reachable from the front and the back. ShopSavvy's summary, though, calls the basket hard to access, with no zipper and modest space. There is no snack tray built in. Plan on a small diaper bag and a few extras below, and keep larger bags on your shoulder.

The seat is rated to 55 lb, so most children can ride until they no longer need a stroller.
Will the Quid 3 fit in an overhead bin?
Inglesina says the Inglesina Quid 3 fits into the overhead compartments of most airplanes, and that the bumper bar can be stored inside the folded stroller before it goes in the bin. The folded size, 15.5 x 7.5 x 23 in by Inglesina's spec table (its description says 18.3 in wide), is small, but airline rules vary, so check your carrier before you fly. ShopSavvy's summary lists airline cabin travel as a strength and notes that it rolls like a carry-on when folded. A carry bag with rear wheel covers is sold separately. If you plan to fly with a newborn, remember that the seat does not lie flat, so you would also need a compatible infant car seat and the Quid 3 adapter.

What is the difference between the Quid 3 and Quid 2?
