Our Verdict: Chicco Bravino Plus

The Chicco Bravino Plus scored 67 out of 100 across the five criteria we score every umbrella stroller on, and took Best Umbrella Stroller for Quick Errands in our umbrella stroller guide.

Our Analysis, Comparisons and Test Results

Ease of use

Seven, joint fifth in this guide. It deploys quickly for fast errands. The major flaw is the storage basket, which becomes completely inaccessible if the seat is reclined.

Maneuverability

Six, joint sixth in this guide. The notes say nothing about the steering either way, so the score reflects the stroller as a whole.

Transport & storing

Seven, joint seventh in this guide. The notes say little about size or weight. The maker lists a one-hand quick fold with a free-standing design and an integrated carry handle, 22.2 lb and a folded size of 16 × 20 × 28.3 inches.

Build quality

Seven, joint third in this guide. A basic, no-frills build with no complaint in the notes.

Kid comfort

Six: joint fourth of the 10 strollers. The notes say little about the seat. The maker lists a four-position recline, a two-position leg rest and a UPF 50+ rotating canopy.

Should You Buy the Chicco Bravino Plus?

Buy it for short, upright errands where the seat stays up and the basket stays reachable.

At 22.2 lb it's the heaviest weight any maker lists in this guide, and the maker lists a folded size of 16 × 20 × 28.3 inches.

Every umbrella stroller here was scored on the same five criteria, so the question is not which one is good. It is which one suits what you will do with it most days.

Conclusion: Chicco Bravino Plus

The Bravino Plus took the quick-errands award with 67. Steering and comfort at 6 are its lowest marks, and the basket is the daily irritation.
