Butterfly Travel Stroller

I have the gen 1 butterfly and it's been awesome. It's been all over the world and on the Treasure twice. I like that it has real usable storage underneath and lays down flat enough for a nap. My only complaint is that it doesn't lay completely flat but that's not a dealbreaker for me.

Those 2 prams were my shortlist for a travel pram also. When I first had my baby I had a Bugaboo chameleon, we got it secondhand so it was old but I liked it and could feel the quality. I used this with the bassinet attachment with my newborn, but the thing with that pram is that it's huge, and we have small cars and it would take up the entire boot. I knew I wanted a travel pram and ultimately went for the Butterfly. I have a different main pram now, and baby is 5 months old, so the recline on the Butterfly is enough. The fact that it packs down really small and I can fling it open and closed with one hand is the winner for me.

Don’t quote me on this and I hope I don’t get downvoted but apparently it’s only some overseas models that allow the butterfly 2 to be fully flat. There’s some kind of restriction on travel stroller recline angles here (which I don’t understand since some models in Aus do recline completely). I’d definitely recommend something else- my son was 5 months when we used the butterfly 1 and he hated it and wasn’t comfortable at that age.

We have a butterfly 1 and although it’s light and compact, it’s annoying on uneven roads like cobblestones. I think an investment like this is worth trying out in a bigger baby store, if you have one nearby?

My Vista is now set up as a double but I used it as a single for the purpose of doing my food shopping. The big basket is a massive selling point. Once you take the seat off it's really not heavy to lift in and out of the car. The big wheels also make it easier to push. I have a travel pram (butterfly) and the little wheels on certain terrain make it difficult to push.

Glad to hear this post was helpful! Hope you enjoy the stroller! (we have the Butterfly 1 as well, it's a great travel stroller)

we waited for over a year and finally pulled the trigger on it with the sale and 20% stack. it’s a fantastic stroller to keep in the car because it has such a small footprint and is very well-made. also you can get car seat adapters for it if you have an infant seat, so you may get more use out of it than you think. the criticisms about being a rough ride on uneven terrain are 100% warranted though because of the wheel size, but if you’re planning on using it in stores and sidewalks, it’s a great buy at the price you’d get it for.

i am somewhat relieved by the list of improvements, which are definitely nice, but definitely not worth the $280 price difference between the new model and the original with the price reduction + target coupon.  the increased front wheel size is probably the one thing i am genuinely wishing i could have.

We are close to clocking easily 100 km walked with our Bugaboo butterfly. We have done four international flights and about 20 domestic flights. Bugaboo has been great the one hand fold is brilliant for that last minute toddler pick up and fold. Light enough to carry up or down stairs when needed (+\~ toddler still in seat). Its only flaw is that it doesn’t do newborn flat. Don’t know why it would be a total class killer if it did.

Bugaboo butterfly 2.0 is newborn ready. We have the original and I’ve said repeatedly the only thing that stops it being the perfect pram is the lack of lie flat. Seriously thinking of upgrading to the 2.0

Not to be annoying but bugaboo butterfly is what you need but not on your list. We are obsessed with ours. And around 400-500 on marketplace.

I think bugaboo is increasing their price soon so I just purchased it in case this was affected

I can confirm it stacks with the 15% and i ended up getting it for $271 before tax

Hello stroller addict here 🙈 - I’ve just purchased #6 although I did sell one so we will have 5 when it arrives. 1. Nuna mixx - our first stroller and bought to go with our infant seat. We loved it until we didn’t, it’s now gathering dust in the hall closet. Keeping solely so I don’t get the urge to buy a Cruz v3 for bassinet mode and bc resale on them sucks. 2. Bugaboo butterfly (OG) - bought for travel, lives in my husbands car (will maybe sell this one, see #5) 3. UB Vista v3 - bought to replace the Mixx because my child hated the seat with a passion - love this stroller but hate the bulky fold. I use it every day for stroller walks in the neighborhood and to the park, lives in garage & comes on big outtings with us. 4. Nuna triv (SOLD) - bought when my kid started hating the mixx and I wasn’t ready for world facing yet. Liked it but once he was world facing I swapped it for something more compact since it’s still pretty big. 5. Bugaboo butterfly (2) - kind of a splurge that I didn’t need but I just wanted a stroller that lived in *my* car for everyday use and I liked the new features. 6. Guava Roam (in transit) - bought mostly for my husband to jog with but also for park outtings & rougher terrain than the vista can handle. I have a problem, it’s fine 🥲
