Bugaboo Stroller

Any one planning to get or already have the Bugaboo "frog" stroller?

HeyyRed

We looked at the Chameleon but have decided on the Uppa Baby instead. It's easier to fold down, has a bigger storage basket and is lighter on the whole.

Sorry that's the Uppa Baby Vista.

I am considering it. ?But I think you have to use the bassinet part when they are a newborn, right? ?Am I the only one concerned that there are no straps in the bassinet to hold the baby in? ?

I will look in to those, but we are maxing our price range for the Bugaboo stroller! May have to squeeze a little more out of DH or cut back somewhere else!

We were going to buy a used cameleon off craigslist, but my mother decided to surprise us with on a new one.  It is assembled and at my mother's home currently.  It is beautiful!  I had no trouble learning how to use all the functions in only a few minutes.  It is the mercedes of strollers and from what I heard worth every penny.  I can't wait to use it!

We considered the Uppa Baby as well and were disappointed on how the wheels were just ordinary plastic.  We were impresed that the bugaboo had an inner tube that is similar to a bike tire and had shocks that will make a smooth ride for our little one.  As far as the bassinet goes, there is no need for a strp.  You should switch seats by the time your child starts to roll.

I was thinking about it, but then decided on the Stokke Xplory.  I like the idea of not having to use a high chair when we go out to eat.

We went with the Orbit Baby System as the car seat is included and we won't have to purchase one separatley.

I have a Bugaboo Bee and love it. it is light weight and does not take up much room in my trunk. I also had the car seat attachment which was great when DS was still in his infant car seat.  I liked the Bee the best when I was looking at Bugaboos I was not interested in the bassinet feature that the other models have. But now I have to upgrade to a double stroller.

Like pp I looked at the Bugaboo's and decided to get the Bee.

We got the Bugaboo Frog. I just love it, it was worth every penny. The frame is really sturdy, and the wheels are excellent quality. I would highly recommend it!!!
