The G-Link does not have the bellybar or snack tray that we'd like to see on our top picks. However, these features aren't necessary for umbrella strollers. Like all umbrella strollers, the G-Link should be handled with attention to avoid getting fingers caught in the hinges and mechanisms.

This makes them easier to maneuver through tight spaces like airports or on city streets.
