  • Has his with my first two kids, loved it Jan 18, 2024

  • i use this in conjunction with my doona as the doona isn’t the best to take on daily walks through the neighborhood. it has a lot of functions, but the manual is LENGTHY and somewhat confusing Nov 17, 2023

  • This was the very first stroller we got and I loved it. Loved that it was multi terrain and easy to handle. It’s smooths and pivots easily. Sep 21, 2023

  • Best stroller hands down !!!! Extract smooth right and the seat reclines all the way flat without disturbing the child. Big seat so you’ll be able to have it for a while Aug 15, 2023

  • I LOVE this stroller. One caveat, it isn't the easiest to compact but it's glide is ultra smooth, luxe feel, and great for our daily walks! Feb 27, 2023

  • This is by far my favorite stroller! I’m hoping to upgrade to the fox soon, since I love this one so much! So nice to push, and easy to break down once you get the hang of it! Feb 14, 2023

  • Love this stroller! Great fabrics,seat and extendable canopy. Only con is the 2 price fold and no adjustable leg rest Jan 29, 2023

  • I love that it can go in all terrains! It’s perfect! We also found out we can fit it folded vertically in our suv while our old nuna tavern didn’t. Sep 10, 2022

  • I have the bugaboo Cam 3. As a seasoned nanny I have pushed dozens of strollers. My stroller is 7 years old and I still get countless compliments on it. It offers such a smooth comfy ride for babe. Sep 01, 2022

  • I love being able to position the seat front facing or rear facing. I also love that the seat fabric comes off for easy cleaning Jul 25, 2022

  • Good city pram but wouldn’t recommend for bumpy paths or grass. I was surprised how flimsy it felt. Jul 19, 2022

    We got ours in 2016 and have used it for all 3 kids, and still using it, it is a work horse and it still looks very new. In London we used it for everything, in Ho Chi Minh for park walks Jun 23, 2022

  • Love the versatility and adaptability of my Bugaboo to perfectly suit my daughter’s needs in all stages of development. Easy to push, assemble, and transition infant carrier using adapters. MUST-HAVE! Jun 08, 2022

    Love this stroller! It is very versatile and great quality with a smooth ride. My only complaint is that I wish it was easier/ more compact to fold. It’s pretty much two hands but I love it so much I May 08, 2022

  • I loved how lightweight it was, but I found the handle didn't hold up well once my son was closer to 2. It seemed like it couldn't manoeuvre the stroller with his weight and we were within the limit. Oct 13, 2021

  • It is cute and has custom features that were made meticulously. My model is quite old and gets stuck when trying to fold again. Oct 06, 2021

  • Was way too pricey and for the cost, the stroller is bulky and a hassle to use as the seat needs to come off of the stroller every time we take it out of the car. Sep 07, 2021

  • Really good stroller, the weels are great and easy to maneuver. Best stroller around Jul 10, 2021

  • I am still using my bugaboo from my 6 year old for my baby now. Definitely worth every penny Jul 07, 2021

  • I first started using the Bugaboo Chameleon in 2006. This stroller has lasted through 4 children and still in commission. It’s classy, it’s durable, it’s versatile! May 08, 2021

  • Light weight and great push, has every feature. Small wheels sometimes do get stuck in cracks. Not a huge deal, but it's a two piece fold, wish it had a recline handle instead of the two push buttons. Dec 22, 2020

  • Love this stroller so much! I put in a ton of research and got a limited edition pattern in 2014. This stroller has been through heavy use in 2 kids and still going strong. My favorite baby item! Dec 22, 2020

  • Love it amazing on all terrains. Sep 09, 2020

  • I Love the bugaboo line, my son, niece and nephew also had the bugaboo, we had 2 cameleons (red & black) & 1 frog (green), this stroller can maneuver in any weather conditions. Aug 11, 2020

  • Pros: it glides like a dream. Really a smooth ride for little one. Cons: it’s bulky and takes up a lot of room in the trunk. May 19, 2022

    • Beth A.

    • Cheshire , Connecticut

    My first purchase when I found out I was pregnant. LOVE IT!!! So smooth, so many uses, absolutely love!! The bassinet is perfect for newborn age, and then transforms into a seated stroller! Get this!! May 24, 2020

  • Loved this stroller! I think I like all of the bugaboos strollers. Some people may not like the two fold, or taking the swag off of the base, but I don’t mind it. Fairly small basket but functional Feb 24, 2020

  • A dream to push. Easy to fold down. Fits well in a trunk. NIGHTMARE to unfold. Gets lots of looks and compliments. Kiddos love how upright it sits. May 10, 2018

  • This stroller is nothing short of amazing. It’s light, easy to maneuver, and unclips easily to transfer from bassinet to car seat and back. I love the look of if, I just wish it folded completely flat Oct 18, 2017

  • We love our bugaboo! So many great accessories including sun canopy and bassinet. Great under stroller storage. Easy to maneuver with just one hand. Great for city life. Aug 09, 2017

  • I want to love it but just don't. Bugaboo name and fabric awesome. Stroller is lacking in features though. Also really dislike that frame does not lock into place until seat on it. May 22, 2017

  • This is a great stroller for European sidewalks and roads. Mine held up through two kids no sweat. Apr 07, 2017

  • Love that this comes with the bassinet so it's great to use from birth since baby is not reclined (and you can also buy a bassinet stand so you can use it in your house too - double win!) Oct 05, 2016

  • Love my Cameleon with such a smooth ride and easy mobility. Baby is comfortable and mom is happy. Oct 05, 2016

  • Love the Bugaboo but it's very large in my trunk and a pain to fold and unfold. Baby is very comfortable and I'd buy it again in a heartbeat. Love the carseat adapter - a must have! Aug 16, 2016

  • I've had the Cam 3-4x and I love it! I will say I eventually sell because I get sick of the 2 piece fold, but you can't beat the push! The customizable durable fabrics can be a hurt to the wallet ;) Aug 08, 2016

  • Got it from a neighbor, so skipped the pricetag. Well made, thoughtfully designed, & despite its size it packs well (Phil & Ted's stroller bag). Weight limit is ~37.5 lbs, so will last several years. May 09, 2016

  • I used this with my first child and loved it. It's lightweight and has so many great features. Apr 15, 2016

  • Had this and loved everything but the 2 piece fold & tiny basket. Pain to get in and out of the car & assembled. Pushes like a dream & very comfy for baby. Loved the bassinet & toddler seat options. Feb 07, 2016

  • No one makes a stroller like Bugaboo! The way it maneuvers does not compare to any other. (And iv tried a bunch) i have pushed it in many different places and its wheels can push anywhere. Aug 06, 2015

  • We love our Bugaboo. It has a great smooth ride and handles really well. It folds up easily, and fits nicely in our Prius. I would say this is our best purchase this far! Jul 17, 2015

    • Laura H.

    • United States of America

    So I didn't end up buying this, but we did try it out at the store. For something that costs so much, it seemed silly that you can fold it all in one piece. Got UppaBaby Vista instead! Jun 24, 2015

  • Such a versatile stroller. Perfect for our trips to the park and around town. Folds down easily to fit in my SUV. The ultimate stroller for city and off-road and we love it! May 25, 2015

    • Amy B.

    • Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

    LOVE this stroller! I loved: that I was able to use it with my Maxi Cosi infant car seat, use it as a bassinet and then a seat, my baby was able to face me or face the world and adjustable handle bar! Feb 04, 2015

  • Great for sidewalks and amazing on rough terrain flip it and the large wheels are amazing on grass best investment ever Sep 24, 2014

  • This is great on bumpy roads and sidewalks. However, it is really only useful in an urban area. It is a pain in the butt to get in and out of car and takes up a ton of space. Jul 02, 2014

    • Jenn K.

    • New York, New York

    Great for city living, it's big but a few inches narrower than the Vista - key for apartment storage. I wish the basket was easier to access but it's definitely big enough. It's also really smooth! Jun 02, 2014

  • It's a really nice stroller, but i need a double now with two kids. Definitely not light by any stretch, but has a really smooth ride and love that it's customizable. Wish it was easier to fold - you have to take it apart every time. Sep 29, 2013

  • I have the Cameleon3 and am very happy with it so far. Handles really well and the frame folds up easily. Jan 22, 2013

  • I know the new model is vastly improved but I still love the way this stroller handles on city streets. It is too heavy and difficult to fold to make it practical to use for cabs (have Citymini for that) Jan 21, 2013

  • Q: What do you think about the mobility of the stoller?

    asked by Ali K. - Oct 12, 2015

  • It's great in urban areas... but takes up a lot of space in the car... and is a bit burdensome to breakdown and set up each time you need to put it in the car etc...

    Sterling C. - Oct 12, 2015

  • If I had to do it all over again, I would go with the Orbit or Stokke. I stopped using the bugaboo as soon as I stopped using the infant car seat. Is a bit clumsy, occupies lots of space, and can't be folded with the seat on. Plus the straps aren't tight enough.

    Verena S. - Oct 12, 2015

  • I love the way the cameleon maneuvers u can push with one hand and i have found that it moves well in all areas.

    Tehilah G. - Oct 12, 2015

  • I personally think it depends on your car a little bit. We have an SUV and a Crossover and it fits very nicely in both even though it is large. We routinely take it on our vacations with us. While it is large and does have to come into 2 pieces to fold down I don't think it really takes much time to do it. Ultimately, my son prefers it to our other strollers and so it gets the most use for us.

    Carla M. - Oct 12, 2015

  • Same thoughts as above - it fits fine in our SUV. Breaking it down to the 2 pieces is super easy; just as easy as folding down a large 1-piece stroller if not easier. Mobility moving around is very great. I like that you can switch the handle to the opposite side so the kid is facing the other way and the sun is not in their eyes when on walks.

    Holly K. - Oct 12, 2015

  • Agree with above posts. We have an SUV as well. I love the stroller when we're using it. I have seen a lot of comparable ones around lately and wonder if they're lighter than this one. The bugaboo is definitely well made that's for sure. I have not traveled with it but would like to try to. I like how the uppababy can fold up in one go but the benefit to the bugaboo folding up in two parts

    Celine B. - Oct 12, 2015

  • We had a Bugaboo with baby one, and sold it on Craig's List with baby two so we could get a Vista with the rumble seat. I *vastly* prefer the Vista; you don't have to take it apart to fold it, and its folds so much easier than the Bugaboo. Tons more storage space, too, which makes it awesome for travel.
