A highly functional stroller, espcially living in the city!, February 7, 2006
Reviewer: chirshfield from Washington DC

Overall Grade   10.00/10  (10)


Pros: It is incredibly light and drives like a dream
Cons: It comes in two pieces.

We purchased the "boo" about 3 years ago when it first was coming to America and we paid $699.00. It was the best purchase of all my baby items. It is so lightweight which is perfect for living in the city. It can take the bumps in the city streets like it is going over glass. It can make a turn with one hand. I love that is grew with my son, it truly was the only stroller I needed (except for a jogger). Now that I have my second son, we bought the step attachment and call it my older son's chariot. He loves riding on it. The Bugaboo's an incredible buy and really can be the only stroller you need, sort of justifying the price.

Great quality stroller that is mulitpurpose., August 22, 2005

Overall Grade   9.00/10  (9)


Pros: Great steering, reversible handles, bassinet.
Cons: Two part fold! Need I say more?

When I first found out I was pregnant, I knew I wanted to get a Frog for our little baby. After test driving one out from a friend and also numerous trips to the Babystyle store, dh and I both loved the frog. The only thing that really drew us back was the price. It cost almost as much as our mortgage payment.

With lots of patience and looking on both ebay and craigslist...I finally found a STEAL!!! We paid $565 for an almost new frog ( the tires still had "whiskers" on it.) It came with tons of stuff... everything a new one would include plus added bonuses such as a footmuff, brand new bugaboo diaperbag to match, bag clips, and toddler wheel board.

If we didnt find such a wonderful deal...I dont think I could bring myself to paying the $729 for a new one.

Now that our little baby is here...we use the bassinet feature exclusively. It's great since we can put her in it for her afternoon naps and just push the stroller to where we are in the house during the day, that way we're right next to her when she wakes up. Thats just one of the great features of this stroller. Did I mention it steers like a dream??

This stroller might not be for everyone, especially considering the price but if you can afford a Frog...its the way to go. Also with the two piece fold...you really get used to it and then its not so bad.

I hope this review helped

A bit pricey, but definitely worth the money., September 5, 2006

Pros: Versatility, sleek design, front and rear-facing
Cons: Two-part fold, no cup-holders

I owned the frog for a little over a year now and still love its looks and features. I was a little worried about the frog becoming outdated with the production of cameleon and gecko after spending over $700 but now am glad I decided on the frog instead of the other two. Many people have problems with the frog's two-part fold system but I don't find it too difficult to open and close once you get the hang of it. I live in So. California and am always in and out of the car but don't have any complaints about its usage in the suburbs. I mostly stroll with it around malls, theme parks, markets, etc. and still love its smooth ride as well as its versatility. Yeah it doesnt have cup holders but I can live with that. In fact, I bought an Eddie Bauer stroller organizer at Target for $20 and it fits my bugaboo perfectly for additional storage. The basket isnt too big but I have no problem fitting all my necessities in there. Plus it closes securely to avoid anything falling out of it when its folded. I still love this bugaboo and believe that its definitely worth the money. I paid $729 with free shipping last year and still can't believe its still holding up its value. It proves that the frog is still a very popular model.

Easy to use and convienent, September 22, 2006

Overall Grade   10.00/10  (10)


Pros: form that follows function
Cons: PRICE

I bought this on ebay and I paid $610 (with shipping), so I got a deal. I really like the ease of the sterring and the suspension. I also like all the configuration options. I did purchase the car seat adapter as well for the peg perego infant seat. It is great. This stroller is so sturdy and looks so good that I foresee it being used for future children without looking worn or dated so I should get my $ out of it.

Great Stroller, but I wish the fold was easier, May 1, 2006

Overall Grade   9.00/10  (9)


Pros: Baby faces parent or outwards; Comfortable push; Good ride
Cons: The Fold; No parent window on canopy; Skimpy canopy

I love my Bugaboo, but I wish the folding mechanism was easier. Because of the folding issue, I don't use the Bug in my car- I bought a Maclaren Quest for the car, which is great. However, for the price of the Bug, I wish it could do everything. I aslo wish that the canopy provided more coverage, and that there was a peek-a-boo window in the canopy so parents could check on the child without walking around the stroller. I paid $729
