Bugaboo Cameleon Stroller - Dark Grey Base/Black Canvas Tailored Fabric Set

 (3 customer reviews)

I relented and my wife bought this "thing". Being a Mechanical Engineer by training I absolutely hate this thing. It has some of the worst design aspects and everything it does take two hands to do. And of course every parent has two free hands at all times to manipulate a $1000 stroller. It doesn't fold easily and you have to separate the carriage from the tractor frame which means it will take your whole trunk to store.
Do not buy this thing unless you relish the mental anguish that only Bugaboo can provide. It is also the only stroller we own (we own 4) that requires bi-monthly tire inflation. It goes flat on one side and the stroller will want to veer to one side or another. You'd think for $1000 you would be purchasing the most well thought out stroller known to man. Think again.
This is a waste of money as you can purchase something lighter, more versatile and a hell-of-a-lot cheaper than this "let down".

This is Bugaboo's top of the line stroller and is undoubtedly one of the most expensive strollers on the market (though my daughter was able to get it for 20% off at a one day sale at a local store in Manhattan). When my wife and I offered to buy a stroller for our new grandchild, we had no idea that a stroller could cost so much. While you definitely do get what you pay for, you also need to decide if this stroller meets your needs, because like anything else, it has pros and cons that I will discuss.

If you go to the Bugaboo product site, you can compare this stroller with their less expensive strollers. This product is listed for "city, rough terrain and two-wheel position for beach and snow." My daughter lives in Manhattan, where many people use this stroller. But think very carefully before you buy this if you live in the suburbs and drive rather than walk to most places, because this stroller is not easily transportable. Here is what you need to consider:...Read more

If I would have the option of buying a stroller again, I definetely would NOT buy Bugaboo Camaleon never again!!
It is extremely bulky and imposible to fold, and when you finally after some effort manage to fold it, it takes a lot of space, because you have to disassamble the seat or bassinet first (which do not fold itself, so you have to put in your car, taxi etc, the complete seat or bassinet) and then the huge bulky wheel part.
Makes every travel a Nightmare!!!!!
Plus, the under bag is useless because it is soo small and not practical, because it is closed so getting thing in and out of that bag is another nightmare!
So unless you NEVER have to take a car, taxi or airplane with it, and have a huge diaper bag with no need of extra storage (which trust me, with a baby you NEED extra space to storage), then get it, but other strollers have the same use , more PROS and probably cheapest.
Hope it helps!
