Looking for a great lightweight stroller? Peg Perego’s Pliko Mini is a great choice. Clocking in at 13 lbs, we like it because it has a lot of the features of a heavier stroller, at a lighter weight. So, your child will have a huge canopy, extendable leg rests, a good sized basket and a cup holder — and still have an easy fold and a light weight. And with a price of $249, you’re getting a good bang for your buck.
Stoller Review: Peg Perego Pliko Mini Stroller
We tested the Neon Color. The bright stripes were so vibrant against the black background and frame. Some parents may not be wild about using this print with a little boy (but it didn’t bother my two year old son or me).
Features of the Pliko Mini:
- Simple, standable fold (great for storage and keeping the stroller clean)
- Three-position recline (so your child can get some rest)
- Two-position leg rest (who wants little legs to dangle?)
- Adjustable handles
- Large basket
- Large sun canopy with window
- Side carrying handle
- Lockable front swivel wheels
- Step brakes on the back wheel
- Includes an Adult Cup Holder
- Weight: 13 pounds
- Dimensions when open: 19.3” wide, 39.4” high, 32.7” deep
- Dimensions when closed: 13” wide, 37” high, 12” deep
- Made in Italy
To unfold the stroller:
Undo the latch on the side near the handles. Unfold by pulling up the handles. Kick the center piece above the brake open and push the seat down manually (or let your child’s weight do that). Make sure the sides lock into place. To close the stroller, click each handle, then pull up the handle and the stroller will close like an umbrella.
Best Performance:
The Pliko Mini will do well on sidewalks and for local walking. It’s great for airport travel and road trips. You’ll appreciate the small fold if you have a lot of luggage and barely any room to stash it. It’s great for in and out of the car use. Since it’s a lightweight stroller, it’s not going to be recommended for going on trails or long walks on uneven surfaces. Grandma will find it easy to use and store.
Verdict:
If you want a lightweight stroller, the Pliko Mini will be a great choice.

Looking for a stroller that can replace my current combi which has a shorter back rest and not allowing my 16month girl to sleep in max recline.
Pliko mini equally light weight and saw YouTube a lady able to open and fold with 1 hand while carrying toddler. It fits all my criteria as I’m a petite 5 feet mom.
Love all the colour range pliko mini offer and hope to win 1 of this as I am looking forward to go on a trip with my DD and pliko mini.
