Bugaboo - Lynx

We started with a Graco travel system, bought an umbrella stroller for indoors, found that both didnt turn well on slick floor inside stores. Bought a bugaboo lynx and got rid of both of the others. Our lynx comes in and out of the house since it turns much better than our cheap umbrella stroller did. It doesn't fold super small so you need decent trunk space but it's pretty lightweight so easy to pop in and out.

Bugaboo for full size stroller. Nuna Pipa Air RX for the car seat and add the Peg Perego City Loop to turn it into the same thing as a Doona. City Loop is a frame stroller that you can pop the car seat on and it’s amazing quality! There’s a stroller seat you can buy later so you can use it as a travel/ errand stroller.

I just checked and they discontinued the Cameleon. It was replaced by the Lynx which seems to be just as good.

I had both. I could have totally survived with just the Yoyo which I highly recommend due to the small fold and ability to accomodate a new born. I loved my big stroller (Bugaboo) for the park, long walks and shopping trips but it was not a necessity.

We have the Bugaboo and Nuna TRVL. While we haven’t opened the Nuna yet (baby is too small), we are obsessed with the Bugaboo. Grandparents, neighbors and friends who have pushed it are absolutely amazed. It handles direction well, and is extremely sturdy. We bring it on the small trail by our house and it is impeccable. Highly recommend!

We ended up buying the Lynx off of Marketplace! It’s the 2019 model and works brand new - absolutely amazed at how it held up. We have the car seat attachment and bassinet, and use both religiously for the stroller. We will definitely be getting the newer model once our second comes along. We ended up buying the Nuna bassinet before this and I don’t love it. It’s not as sturdy as I thought it would be. It is, however, great to just pick up and bring around with us (eating outside, moving to our bedroom, etc)

Concur with options being the best. My recommendation is a used donkey (we bought one for $175 and are probably another $200 in with some new attachments, new canopy, sprucing up the wheels, etc). Especially the first few months when you’re using the bassinets you only need one stroller IMO. But after that…we then got a cheap double umbrella (jeep brand, maybe $80?) that has been great for its purpose. The bugaboo is great to push and a great full feature stroller but it’s IMO, noticeably bulky. We use the donkey for stroller walks, any outings or trips that require long walks, amusement parks, petting zoos, etc. Sure it fits through most doors but does it fit in between the tables at the restaurant? Does it fit in between the aisle at the store? Is it easy to get in and out of the car to go grab something from the store? Not really IMO, it’s noticeably larger than our umbrella width wise and we’ve had way more “ah we won’t fit” experiences with it compared to the umbrella. So the umbrella lives in our car for daycare drop offs, anytime we go to a restaurant, anything that is space constrained or we don’t anticipate a long time in the stroller. Maybe something like the mountain buggy duo is worth looking at to fill both rolls, but I remember it being pricy and not having as good of a second hand market.

I love my Nuna trvl lx! But the bugaboo was my second choice!

I just saw a video on it! So mad I was led astray by my friends 😭😭😭 it folds like the Nuna Triv, but full sized.

I love the uppababy Cruz. I would not recommend the vista as it’s really difficult to maneuver with two kids. I have many friends who bought the vista as a one and done stroller and find it really difficult to use with one or two kids. The Cruz works really well for our city life. It is heavy and bulky so it takes up our entire trunk when we travel with it but it’s wonderful. I take it grocery shopping and everything fits in the basket. I didn’t check out the Nuna but I hear people like it since it’s light. Personally I wouldn’t like that - we have a cybex travel stroller that weighs ~12 lbs and it feels flimsy and doesn’t handle well compared to our ~25lbs Cruz. I briefly looked at bugaboo and really liked their single stroller but couldn’t justify the price. Their double looked great but seemed like a lot of wasted space if I only had one kid. We honestly have three strollers. We love our uppababy and use it daily. We bought travel stroller for a trip but sold it. We just recently bought a jogging stroller - our LO is 8 months old - simply so we can exercise while spending time with LO. We don’t need it so we could definetly get by with just the uppababy Cruz.

Doona then bugaboo here, found it easier to collapse one handed than the yoyo

I’ve literally never seen them there and I spent many hours there trying to convince myself I needed and could afford a Bugaboo. (Surprise to no one, I didn’t and I couldn’t! Lol) Nuna, Uppababy, Silver Cross, Thule, Doona, Joolz, Cybex, sure. Chicco? Never. Maybe this is a new development? 🤷🏻‍♀️

I mean there isn’t any data published. At best you will get anecdotal stories which aren’t particularly insightful.  Presumably, 99.9% of people who bring strollers have no issues.  I have bought higher end strollers (Uppababy, Bugaboo) in a dozen times and had no issues.  I use an AirTag, mostly because once or twice cast members have moved them (or my spouse parked it, but I retrieved it) and it’s helpful.  Personally, I think the concerns about stroller theft are overblown. It’s a highly secure and monitored area, that costs hundreds of dollars to enter. I think items in strollers is more common, but even that I think is rampant.  Anecdotally I’ve had no issues and leave both my stroller and items in it unattended for long durations. But, again, without data we are all just speculating.
