Joolz Hub2 Space Black Stroller (100001)

Description

The Joolz Hub2 was developed for parents who spend most of their time navigating city streets, public transport, lifts, cafés and shops, but still want their child to enjoy the comfort normally associated with larger strollers. This is not an ultra-compact travel stroller designed to sacrifice comfort for portability, nor is it a full-size pushchair built primarily for rough terrain. Instead, it sits between these categories and aims to solve a problem many urban families face every day: how to combine manoeuvrability, comfort and practicality in a single stroller.

Joolz has focused on making everyday city life easier while ensuring that children have enough space to sit, relax and sleep comfortably throughout the day. The result is a stroller that remains compact enough for urban environments while offering features often found in larger premium models.

Many parents discover that the stroller they initially choose performs well in one area but poorly in another. A lightweight stroller may be easy to carry but uncomfortable for long outings. A large stroller may offer excellent comfort but become difficult to manage in lifts, shops or public transport.

The Hub2 was designed to bridge this gap. Its compact footprint helps parents move easily through busy urban environments, while its spacious seating area, recline options and practical storage solutions make daily use more comfortable for both parent and child.

This balance is the defining characteristic of the model and the reason many families consider it a long-term everyday stroller rather than a specialist product for a specific purpose.

Compact Dimensions for Everyday City Life

One of the first specifications parents notice is the stroller's width of only 52.5 cm. While this may appear to be a simple measurement on paper, it has significant practical implications during daily use.

A stroller of this width can pass comfortably through standard doorways, apartment entrances, shop aisles and lift doors. Parents often begin appreciating this advantage within the first few days of ownership, particularly in older buildings where space is limited.

Unlike wider strollers that require careful manoeuvring in tight environments, the Hub2 feels naturally suited to modern city living.

Lightweight Construction

With a weight of approximately 8.8 kg including the seat, the Hub2 remains surprisingly light considering its reversible seating system and everyday functionality.

This becomes important whenever the stroller needs to be lifted. Carrying it up stairs, loading it into a car boot or navigating train stations becomes noticeably easier when compared with many larger reversible-seat models.

For parents who frequently travel alone with their child, this reduction in weight can make daily routines significantly more manageable.

Reversible Seat Unit

A major feature of the Hub2 is its reversible seat. Parents can position the seat facing them or facing the world ahead.

During the early stages of development, many children feel more secure when they can maintain eye contact with their parents. A parent-facing position also allows easier communication and reassurance during busy outings.

As children become more curious and independent, the seat can be reversed to face forward. This gives them a wider view of their surroundings and encourages interaction with the world around them.

The ability to switch between these two positions allows the stroller to adapt as a child grows rather than forcing families into a single configuration.

Seat Comfort and Recline Positions

Even the most active child eventually falls asleep during a long day out. For this reason, seat recline is one of the most important comfort features of any stroller.

The Hub2 offers multiple recline positions, including a near-flat position suitable for naps. This allows children to rest comfortably without needing to leave the stroller.

For parents, this flexibility often means longer outings and fewer interruptions. For children, it provides a more supportive environment for sleeping when compared with upright travel strollers that offer limited recline.

Canopy and Weather Protection

The stroller features a large canopy with UPF 50+ sun protection and integrated ventilation sections. While many parents initially focus on protection from sunlight, the ventilation system often proves equally valuable.

On warmer days, airflow becomes essential for maintaining a comfortable environment around the child. Ventilation panels help improve air circulation and reduce heat build-up inside the seating area.

The extended canopy also provides additional protection from wind, bright sunlight and light weather changes, helping maintain comfort throughout the year.

Wheels and Urban Manoeuvrability

The Hub2 uses front wheels measuring approximately 6.38 inches and rear wheels measuring approximately 7.8 inches. These dimensions clearly reflect the stroller's urban focus.

Rather than prioritising off-road performance, the wheel design aims to maximise manoeuvrability on paved surfaces. City pavements, shopping centres, cafés and public spaces are where this stroller performs best.

The compact wheelbase allows quick direction changes and smooth steering, helping parents navigate crowded environments with minimal effort.

Storage Basket and Everyday Practicality

Beneath the seat is a generously sized shopping basket with a capacity of 20 litres and a maximum load of 10 kg.

Many parents underestimate the importance of basket capacity until they begin using a stroller daily. Groceries, changing bags, extra clothing, toys and personal items quickly add up.

The large basket allows families to carry these essentials comfortably without needing additional bags hanging from the handlebar, helping maintain both convenience and stroller stability.

Maximum Child Weight Capacity

The seat is approved for children up to 22 kg. This generous capacity means the stroller can continue serving families well beyond the toddler years.

For parents, this often translates into a longer product lifespan and better long-term value. Rather than outgrowing the stroller early, many children can continue using it throughout the period when a stroller remains useful.

One-Hand Folding System

One of the most practical features of the Hub2 is its one-hand folding mechanism.

Real life rarely provides ideal conditions when folding a stroller. Parents may be carrying a child, holding shopping bags or managing other tasks simultaneously. Being able to fold and unfold the stroller with one hand significantly simplifies these situations.

This feature becomes particularly valuable during car journeys, public transport use and everyday transitions between locations.

What to Consider Before Buying

The Hub2 is designed primarily for urban environments. Its greatest strengths are compact dimensions, low weight, reversible seating and excellent manoeuvrability.

Families who spend most of their time in cities, shopping centres, cafés, parks and public transport systems are likely to benefit most from its design.

Parents who frequently walk on sand, deep snow, forest paths or rough countryside terrain may prefer a stroller with larger wheels and more substantial suspension.

Understanding where and how the stroller will be used is the key to deciding whether the Hub2 is the right match for your family.

The Joolz Hub2 is a thoughtfully designed urban stroller that balances compact dimensions with everyday comfort. With a width of 52.5 cm, a weight of approximately 8.8 kg, a reversible seat, a 22 kg child capacity, a spacious 20-litre basket and a convenient one-hand folding system, it is built to help families move confidently through modern city life while ensuring that children remain comfortable throughout the journey.
