Bugaboo Donkey?

anyone have one? If so did you have another bugaboo first? I currently have a chameleon. We have a 2.5 year old and one on the way and Im looking into the donkey. I like that you can convert it from mono to duo however it looks like the carseat compatibility is different than with the chameleon. We used the Peg Perego Primo Viaggio car seat with our first but I don't think it fits in the donkey.  Pro's/Cons??? Any info would be great.

    The seats are TINY!!  A lot smaller/narrower than the cameleon.

    I've seen it in person.  It is a monster.

    You can get a much better double for a lot less.

    I looked into the Donkey when pregnant with #2. I decided on keeping my Chameleon and bought the buggy board. DD stands on it when out for long walks. She also learned to sit on it with legs under the stroller. There is a little seat available that attaches to the buggy board too. Good luck!

    I was set on buying this and did not for two reasons.  First, It was HUGE.  The claims about being slim are stretching it for sure.  I pushed it next to 4 other side by side models.  It was the nicest to look at but equal in its size.  The second reason was that it was a huge pain to convert from one setting to another and then to make compact for the car.  All in all, it pushed great and it was really nice looking but a complete PIA to use.  The city select we already have offers the same conversion function in a tiered setup that takes a third of the time and folds more compactly.  

    I would do some research and push some in person before deciding.

    GL!
