choosing a stroller

 I think I have finally decided on going with Bugaboo for my stroller selection, but I really can't decide which is better, the Bugaboo Bee, or the Chameleon. Has anyone here ever had or heard which choice is more logical, or better in general? I prefer something that can double as a car sear as well and I'm pretty sure both can be used with the purchase of a car seat adapter, but am not sure of this? plus i live in all weather conditions and wonder if either of these will be good for winter if there is a lot of snow. if anyone can help me make this decision it would be awesome, all i dream about anymore is strollers and its driving me nuts!! :)

    My B and SIL have the Chameleon and love it...I haven't done much research about them - but, I believe the Chameleon is more versatile...

    We got the Bee.  I live in an urban area and wanted the smallest possible option to navigate through busy sidewalks, stores, outdoor markets, etc.  I don't think any stroller works well in snow, but we don't really get snow here, so I don't know that for sure.

    You can buy a Graco carseat adaptor to go with it.

    I have a bugaboo chameleon. I like it ok but it does bug me sometimes. Have you looked at the UPPAbaby Vista? If I had to do it all over again I would get the UPPA. First of all I had the bugaboo fold. Its annoying how it does not fold in one piece (the vista does). Also...the bugaboo has no add ons for a 2nd kid (the UPPA has a rumble seat that could make it a double in the future). I am actually thinking of selling my bug to get the vista.

    If it were me...and you are set on the bugaboo I would get the chameleon. There are just a lot more features.  If you do get the bee...just make sure its the new one. The bee had  a ton of issues that people did not like and they fixed a lot of them. I think the new one comes out sometime in April (its called the "bee plus")

    oh..and the bugaboo does have some heavy duty wheels. I have used it in the snow and it was good to go.

    Ouu this is all good to know, I have looked quickly at the UPPA you talked about, but will look into it more now, and I haden't heard about the issues with the bee! i was trying to google to see if there were common issues with either and nothing really came up that caught my eye. Thanks for the advice! when your spending an arm and leg on a stroller i really don't wanna end up regretting it.

    Honestly? I do kind of regret getting the bug. Like I said...if I had to do it again i would get the Vista. Plus they have a really cool limited edition yellow with graphite frame for 2010 :)

    If you have any more stroller questions let me know! I will admit I know way too much about them.
