handles amazingly! looks even better!
"I absolutely LOVE this stroller- while its sort of big and takes up a lot of space in our trunk, I wouldnt want to use anything else in the city. I never really used the bassinet feature, but for almost a year I used my Peg Perego car seat rather than the bugaboo one. The ride is so smooth, and it takes turns with such ease. Its been one of my favorite pieces of gear to date!..." Read Full Review »

Not worth it for no-nonsense, on-the-go mom. Good for an always early, plan ahead, posh posh mom.
"I have had this stroller for 8 months since my son was born and have been seriously disappointed in it for the money I have spent. The great thing about this stroller is the versatility it offers. It changes out from a pram with bassinet to a regular stroller seat. The bassinet came in handy when my son was a newborn as he could be wheeled around the house and stay close while I did my day to day things. Whe..." Read Full Review »

"I was thrilled to receive this stroller as a gift, but quickly became disappointed. Difficult to assemble (the accompanying dvd does not contain an audio feed). The hood does not stay in position. It constantly flies up into my son's face. Not sure if my stroller is defective. I have seen other Bugaboos that appear to be fine. The small cap on the bottom fell off within 1 week. Not sure why that would happen or what purpose it even serves. Not worth the money in my opinion."

Best Uses
"I have been using the Bugaboo Frog Stroller for the past two years with my son and I am now using it with my daughter. After two kids, and two years, I finally made the decision that this is not a stroller I would buy again. Here are the reasons why: * No foot break. * Two-part fold up. * Front wheels clog up in snow/slush. * Not long enough. * The under-stroller storage is cumbersome. * Not travel friendly. I can say a few good things about the bugaboo: * The handle bar that goes front-to-back and back-to-front is handy * It turns on a dime * You look good pushing it * Easy to push with one hand * It is very lightI added some videos, pictures and more details:[@]"

"I love the Denim!!! I have the red base with the Denim and it looks GREAT!! I got the denim skip hop bag to with it..so many compliments. I nevr had a problem with the denim bleeding onto my sons clothing. I used it in hot and cold weather and didn't have a problem. It is difficult to get the fabric onto the seat frame but all the fabrics are that way...they are supposed to be so that the seat is sturdy. It is a great stroller and I don't think you would be dissapointed. I also added the bugaboo BEE to my collection of strollers and love that stroller!"
Haveing fun at the beach!

Bugaboo Cameleon Stroller Review
Not worth it for no-nonsense, on-the-go mom. Good for an always early, plan ahead, posh posh mom.
"I have had this stroller for 8 months since my son was born and have been seriously disappointed in it for the money I have spent. The great thing about this stroller is the versatility it offers. It changes out from a pram with bassinet to a regular stroller seat. The bassinet came in handy when my son was a newborn as he could be wheeled around the house and stay close while I did my day to day things. When he got a little older, he loved the regular stroller seat as well, and the 3 recline positions came in handy when he needed to take to his bottle or take a nap while we were out and about. It is an extremely smooth maneuvering stroller and I have gotten a lot of compliments on it's hi-tech streamlined appearance. This stroller can also supposedly go in wheelbarrow mode and go out on rugged terrain with you. And also if you have the Primo Viaggo or the Graco Snugride or Safe Seat Step 1 you can fit it onto the stroller frame if you buy the attachment for it. Here are the cons though travel with this stroller any travel is a pain. I have a Chevy Impala with a pretty decent sized trunk and when in either bassinet mode or regular stroller mode, it occupies most of the trunk room. You have to detach the seat or the pram from the stroller frame before folding it. I travel quite frequently with my son and it has been an absolute nightmare. I was not allowed to take the seat part of the stroller on Continental Airlines because the stroller separates into 2 pieces and they only allow for one stroller piece. If you use the carseat attachment the stroller detaches into 3 pieces that need to be checked in at the gate car seat, attachment, and the stroller frame. It is large, bulky and heavy to take with you, or fold up and place on a luggage cart or through the security screening point. I've been held up at the check-in counter, jet way, and security checkpoint struggling to detach and attach and fold and unfold the stroller with one hand while my diaper bag and son were in the other hand while moms with cheaper strollers waltz past me with pitying looks. The stroller is two handed unfold, don't believe what the other reviews write about it, there are 2 latches on either side of the frame that need to be held down simultaneously to have it unfold. It is awkward to do and complicated enough that it makes it difficult for strangers to even help you out. Changing it out from one mode to the other is difficult and the instruction manual and dvd take some time to study. The material on the hand grip and the stroller seat bar is porous and not very durable. The one on my stroller is already tearing and there is no way to fix or clean it - my son chews constantly on the seat bar - I don't know why they chose that type of material. The color choice fleece is comfortable enough but the seat itself is made out of canvas that is not removable for washing. There are 2 pneumatic tires on the back and a suspension system in the front when I first bought the stroller I had read a write up on a different retailer's site that said you could jog with the Cameleon but that is an impossibility because the smaller tires on the front are plastic. On my last trip, one of the front tires broke off when I checked it in at the gate and the Bugaboo manufacturer said that airline damage would not be covered under the warranty unless you purchase the storage bag which is an extra hundred dollars or so. In fact most accessories need to be purchased separately. Unless you bother to take your newborn out everyday with you, don't bother buying most of the accessories for the pram such as the raincover and mosquito net. I haven't used mine at all. There is no real storage area on the stroller there is a small canvas storage bin that you can attach to the bottom of the stroller with velcro straps but has a weird drawstring opening that is cumbersome to open and close due to the canvas material. I usually don't ever use mine because it is more of a nuisance than a help to use. As far as the wheelbarrow mode goes, I haven't used it yet, but am turned off by needing to adjust the frame to use it. This is a great stroller if you are rich, have your own private jet, and a big big car, and always have someone with you with two available hands that has studied the user dvd and manual for the Cameleon."
