Peg Perego Selfie Plus Stroller - Lightweight, One-Hand Fold

In this review the Peg Perego Selfie Plus stroller is presented as a compact, travel-ready option for parents who need a reliable daily stroller from birth up to 48 lbs. The single biggest reason to buy is its combination of a genuine one-hand self-closing fold and thoughtful ride features that keep a newborn secure while remaining easy to steer and store. The reviewer found the Selfie Plus especially useful for city families and travelers who value a lightweight frame and a stroller that converts to a travel system when paired with a Primo Viaggio seat.

Key Features

• Self-closing fold: The stroller folds itself with a quick turn of the handle so one person can collapse and carry it easily after use.
• Newborn ready: Safe from birth and up to 48 lbs, the seat reclines with one hand to create a comfortable surface for infants.
• Travel system compatibility: Use the Selfie adapter (sold separately) with any Primo Viaggio infant car seat to form a lightweight travel system.
• Smooth ride: Soft-ride wheels, rear shock absorbers with visible springs and ball bearings provide agile steering across different terrain.
• Removable cover: The seat has a double-layered, removable cover with a zipper for easy washing after spills or messes.
• Sun protection and storage: The expandable hood offers UPF 50+ sun protection and a peek-a-boo window while a spacious basket carries essentials.

Who It's For

The Selfie Plus fits parents who need a lightweight, easy-to-store stroller for everyday errands, travel, or public transit. Its one-hand folding and compact footprint make it ideal for caregivers who often manage a child and bags alone, and those who want to convert to a travel system with a Primo Viaggio car seat.

Families who need a full-size, heavy-duty all-terrain stroller or those expecting very tall children beyond the 48 lb limit should consider other models. Also, buyers looking for an integrated adapter or included infant car seat should note the adapter is sold separately.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Truly one-hand self-closing fold keeps travel simple and fast on the go.
• Comfort-focused features like adjustable footrest, one-hand recline, and rear shock absorbers make rides smooth for infants and toddlers.
• Durable design details such as ball-bearing wheels and eco-leather handles improve steering and single-hand control.
• Removable double-layered seat cover with zipper makes cleaning straightforward.

Cons

• Selfie adapter for car seat integration is sold separately, so the full travel system requires an extra purchase.
• As a compact, lightweight stroller it is not intended for very heavy-duty off-road use.

Our Verdict

The Peg Perego Selfie Plus is a thoughtfully engineered lightweight stroller that balances newborn safety and everyday practicality, making it a strong choice for urban parents and frequent travelers.
