Review: Micralite Fastfold SuperLite
The Fastfold Superlite has the easiest set-up ever! It goes from the box to ready to roll in about a minute. Once in motion, it turns with such ease (even with one-hand steering) and impressively handles corners. The front swivel wheels are lockable, while the rear air-filled wheels absorb the shock of all bumps and holes for a really smooth ride. You can activate the fold with just one hand, which is ideal when youre juggling baby in the other. And even though the Fastfold doesnt fold up as compactly as a traditional umbrella stroller, its still a manageable size it fits easily in the trunk of a sedan or in a home closet. The basket is surprisingly roomy for the overall size of stroller. And theres a nice selection of accessories, including a footmuff, an infant car seat adapter, a carrycot and a travel bag.

The baby sister to the Micralite Toro, the FastFold Superlite is the Cadillac of umbrella strollers!

Micralite FastFold Superlite Stroller Review
When I think about strollers there are two different styles to think about. Light and fast, and comfy and rugged. I have a stroller that is comfy and rugged, all terrain. Its also not small when its folded and its not as light as it could be. It takes up the whole trunk of the car too. The Micralite FastFold Superlite Stroller is an answer to my prayer for a good lightweight stroller! We were sent a stroller for review. I thought it would be hard to put together but literally all you have to do is put the wheels on and they go on easily with just a turn and then a click and you are done. Its that simple! And the shade snaps on easily as well! The tires on the back are air filled and there is a pump in the box as well. With the front tires being small this stroller is very maneuverable! Its light too, only 14 pounds!! It looks neat too. I definitely love it for my 22 month old! The storage basket is decent sized too and thats a definite plus. View the full review here.

Micralite FastFold Superlite Review
The large rear tires and wide set front tires give the Fastfold Superlite amazing maneuverability. This stroller basically glides along with very little effort, turns on a dime and pushes with one hand easily even fully loaded. This is one of the easiest one-handed strollers that we have tried that we prefer to push it with one hand instead of two! The rear, all-terain tires help this stroller tackle all different terrain, making playground mulch, grass and gravel no problem! If you need to take the stroller off-roading, just lean the stroller back on the rear, air-filled tires and the stroller will charge through anything. View the full review here.

Superlite at the Pool, Parade, and Pier
Check out these 12" beefy air tires. They can really handle the rough stuff. And the brake is flip-flop friendly, lol! Though the front wheels are spaced widely apart, the rear is extremely narrow. At 15", that is the narrowest you will find on a stroller. In cramped spaces, I tilt it back and roll it on the rear wheels. The Superlite belies the idea that air tire strollers have to be heavy. It weighs in at an astonishing, Mac-like, 14 pounds! So the "Superlite" part is really true. One of the places the stroller saves weight is in the seat. It is all mesh, just like the old Volo. The mesh seat is ideal for the pool, and very breathable on these hot summer days. The "Fastfold" part is true, too! And it's easy. Just follow the instructions to "Press and Lift". Slide up the handle... And it stands alone folded! You can grab the handlebar in the center and roll it behind you for easy transport. The fold is really compact. And you can pop off the rear wheels if you need it smaller. View the full review here.

Micralite Fastfold Superlite Stroller Review
The Micralite FastFold Superlite weighs a mere 14 lbs., making it incredibly light and comfortable to carry and push. Its light weight makes traveling with the Micralite FastFold Superlite a breeze. Its so nice to have a full-featured stroller that is still light enough for me to fold up and throw in the back of our car for trips to the park. Steering is also smooth and comfortable, making maneuverability easy even with one hand. One of the features that I love the most about the Micralite FastFold Superlite stroller, is the 5-point safety harness. With so many strollers, I have noticed that the harness does little to actually restrain a curious baby within the seat. The safety harness on the Micralite, however, truly hold your child securely within the seat, providing a comfortable and safe ride. View the full review here.

Micralite Super-lite Fastfold Stroller Review
Right off I have to say I am super impressed with this stroller. It isnt often that you can find a lightweight umbrella stroller that can perform at the capacity this stroller does. It is so easy to maneuver, actually I think that might be an understatement. This baby turns on a dime, one hand is all you need. I LOVE that! It is quick and easy to fold and can stand upright when folded, another huge plus. (I get so annoyed when strollers dont stand easily. That makes storage a bit more tricky.) Something to consider is that the basket is only accessible from the front, that doesnt bother me and even though it isnt a large basket it is so nice having a usable basket on an umbrella type stroller. The seat is really cool as it is a breathable mesh fabric (perfect for summer weather, keeping your child cooler) that is like a sling so it hugs to your child making it really comfy for them. And reclines for for nap time while you are out and about. While they are enjoying the comfort you can rest assured they arent falling out since there is a 5 point harness safety belt.

Best Five Umbrella Strollers
The Micralite FastFold Superlite comes packed with full-size stroller features, but it is still considered to be an umbrella stroller. This is a compact and parent-friendly stroller which can be maneuvered easily. It features easily replaceable all-terrain wheels with pneumatic tires that can cope with rough terrains. The Fastfold is designed with an emphasis on light weight. Its aluminum chassis helps bring the weight of the stroller down to less than 16 pounds. View the full review here.

FastFold Superlite (Micralite Stroller Review)
What I love most about it, is the patented easy folding design that makes it able to stand straight upright when folded shut. I am able to open and close it quickly with its easy-grip handles I can keep a good hold on it while I am closing/opening it. I love how easy it is to slip in and out of my smaller car trunk. Since there is not a lot of room in there, this stroller is ideal for shopping trips around town and even a trip to the local zoo.
We tested it out and my hubby loved the one-handed steering. It moved like a breeze and turned on a dime. The 5-point safety harness keeps my little guy in the stroller and I am assured he is safe. It features a sun hood with window so I can see him at all times even while keeping the summer sun off of his face. He loves his new stroller and so do his happy parents! View the full review here.

Micralite FastFold Superlite Review
At only Fourteen pounds it is incredibly light yet sturdy with an aluminum frame and the ability to hold up to 55lbs. The Micralite FastFold Superlite strollers seat is made out of a breathable mesh which is so perfect for this hot weather we have been having. The seat is able to recline and has two positions for when the kiddos get sleepy and has a five point safety harness. The basket on the Micralite FastFold Superlite is a good size its easily accessible from the front and is good to carry your necessary items. The Rider is such a super cool invention. It makes the Micralite FastFold Superlite (a single stroller) into a double! With this addition Kaia can hold onto the handle bars and stand on the rider as you can see in the pictures and she is able to ride along in style. While still having the freedom she desires as a big girl. It is pretty perfect for us since most of the time Kaia demands that she wants to walk but a lot of times half way through our walk she gets tired and wants to be carried. View the full review here.

Enjoy a Summer Stroll
We want you to spend the rest of the summer strolling in style with a Micralite FastFold Superlite. I got to see one of these little jewels in action at the Scandinavian Child suite at evo 10 and was super impressed with how easily it folded (with one hand!), opened and maneuvered. Obviously it is ridiculously light& hence the name. View the full giveaway here.

Micralite FastFold Superlite Review
When fully open, the Micralite Fastfold Superlite has loads of space! Much more than I thought a small, 14 lbs upright stroller could have. The breathable, mesh seat looks so comfortable and a little futuristic. The seat features two reclining positions that can be easily switched over by sliding the handles up or down. Also included is a 5-point safety harness, removable hood with see-through window and a spacious underneath basket. The Micralite Fastfold Superlite has almost too many wonderful features to mention. But some of my favorites are the fully adjustable handlebars, one-handed open and fold and the lockable 6" front swivel wheels. Oh yeah, and the 12" all-terrain pneumatic rear wheels are fabulous! They make going over rocky and sandy ground a breeze. The Micralite Fastfold Superlite even comes with its own air pump for the rear wheels! View the full review here.

Micralite FastFold Superlite Stroller Review & Giveaway!
One hand is all you need with the Micralite Superlite.. really&just one hand! As I was coveting the FastFold Superlite for months, I read the claims that stated this stroller had amazing maneuverability, however when the stroller arrived, I was truly amazed at the small turning radias. When I say this stroller spins on a dime, I really mean that! With larger air-filled wheels in the rear and smaller swiveling and lockable wheels in the front, the Superlite can take on any type of terrain with ease and the air can be adjusted to suit specific terrain with the included air pump. The Fold I have quite a bit to say about the fold of this stroller! After all, the FastFold Superlite holds its name for a reason! However, I would like to point out a major design flaw with the large majority of umbrella strollers on the market today that Micralite has recently addressed, making their design superior to others on the market today. Forward collapsing umbrella strollers allow the sun canopy to touch the front wheels, making it next to impossible to keep the stroller clean. Every bit of dirt and muck that you just rolled over is now all over the sun canopy where little hands can touch it and its impossible to remove. The Fastfold Superlite is designed to fold inward, rather than forward. It literally shrinks inward in a matter of seconds (and with just one hand) with a simple squeeze of of the two quick release tabs and a quick pull upward. The Superlite automatically locks into place and offers two locking positions for those who may be really short on space and need to squeeze it into a small area. Once in the folded position the FastFold Superlite stands on its own and the wheels do not touch any other part of the stroller! View the full review here.

Gearing Up For Summer: The ALL NEW Micralite FastFold Superlite Stroller from Scandinavian Child Rev
The fact that the seat has two positions and reclines is great, and a feature I look for in any stroller we use. Kaden is still quite young and naps often when we're out and about. Having the option to recline the seat back a bit is a huge plus and a feature we've already used a lot. Safety is huge and a must with any stroller we use. I greatly appreciate the 5 point harness on this stroller. No matter if our 7 month old or 2 1/2 year old is riding in it...I have the peace of mind knowing that they are safe and secure. No matter where we're going, it's a must to have storage space. Even the shortest of trips requires us to bring a number of things. We need to have somewhere convenient to put the diaper bag, snacks, toys, etc. I was happy to see that the Micralite FastFold Superlite offered quite a large storage basket underneath. It's perfect for the things we typically take with us on walks and outings. View the full review here.

Micralite Fastfold Superlite Stroller review
The Micralite Fastfold Superlite Stroller is UNBELIEVABLE. This stroller is the next generation of super sturdy, super light, ultra trendy baby transportation! It's only just now hitting the shelves and I am very excited to be one of the first to try it. I loved it from the moment I opened the box. It's extremely light, weighing in at only 14 pounds. The "seat" is made of great, breathable fabric that cradles your child in the most comfortable way. I put my three year old in it and she fits perfectly, but the seat is also made for even the tiniest tots. The straps are fully adjustable. The storage basket is easily accessed under the front part of the seat, rather than the rear, which I found pretty cool. Also, this stroller moves with such smoothness and ease that it almost feels like you're pushing nothing! To top it off, it turns on a dime and can be steered with only one hand!
