Bugaboo Bee ladies (All comments welcom)

[Mama 2 Be]

We've picked our pram or should I say stroller! (Although not ordering it until after our 20 week scan.)

We are going with the Khaki Bugaboo Bee http://www.mothercare.com/Bugaboo-Bee-Khaki/dp/B000X1IRYM with baby nest & Maxi Cosi Cabriofix Peguin Car Seat and Easy Fix Base.

But before we buy do you have any personal experience good or bad with these bad boys??

Thanks girls

yerr i was thinking of getting the same pram but in the brightgreen
i been told good views nothing negative so far ..apparently there very good to fold up

i have the gecko and i love it, i no the bee is quite different but i love the fact you can customise them so you could have a completly different buggy to other people.
i have a cowprint hood and bright yellow footmuff and i always get great comments on it and people asking where to buy them from
they fold up so easily and great for manovering around town i no the bee only has 4 small wheels so it wont be as good on beachs and things but great buggy

I have ordered one too

The only bad things I've heard are that larger children say aged 2 upwards don't fit in it - not a problem they can walk or just get a cheapie buggy

And that the yellow attracts flies and other flying things.

Where is the bright green one sold? I've only seen, red, blue, pink, yellow, khaki and black.

Indie: What colour? Has it arrived? Oh its exciting

Well we're team green so we can't have the blue or the pink although I love them more than the other colours (I might break and find out the sex just to I can order a funky colour )

So that left us:

Yellow - Attracts bees/flies etc
Red - VERY YUMMY
Khaki - LOVELY
Black - bit boring for me

I wanted red but Papa 2 be suggested it might fade to a horrible colour in the sun, so begrudgingly I caved and went with Khaki - although apparently there is a bright green one!

According to the bugaboo website there's only yellow, red, pink, black, blue or khaki. . . but I know they changed all the colours for 2009 so maybe bright green was an old colour?
I really like the khaki and you can jazz it up with a pink or blue blanket x

Hiya

Don't know about the bugaboo but I have the Maxi Cosi car seat and easy fix base and LOVE it. Is really quick and easy to use and OH has been able to switch it between cars easily too.

went for the yellow as love it being all bright and cheery. hadnt thought about the flies issue before we ordered it but hey ho!
it hasnt arrived yet as only ordered it on saturday but so happy we found it as we live in a 1st floor maisonette so needed something light and compact and love the fact its compatible with the maxicosy car seat which we also ordered

I LOVE the Red....

My mind's fixed on it and I've gotten a Black & White Skip Hop City Chic Baby Bag to go with it. Red + Black + White is a great color combination for me....

Last week I think, I had a chat with a Lady in Canary Wharf who had the Chameleon, she did say the suspension wasn't strong enough and might jolt the baby a bit but the beauty was worth that tiny flaw....

Oh my gosh - that bag is gorgeous! Have put that one my short list. Although better not get the same incase we live in the same part of London!

Ive just started looking at prams so am currently clueless

Im in the city and am looking for something which will be comfy for baby but which is also a little funky. I have been looked at the Bugaboo Chameleon and Bee, the Stokke Xplory and the Mamas and Papas Joolz..Mmm I really dont know how to decide ??

this is the photo sorry its massive!!
it came with the buggy when i brought it but its made by poshbugs on ebay they will custom make any hood for you although not cheap, the hood is actually for a chamelon as i have cham hood rods rather then gecko at the moment as waiting on my gecko hood to be delivered

[Oliver's mummy]

hi ladies - i too am hoping to get the bee. but have been reading reviews that say the handle can be a little flimsy and the clips break, any experience of this?
dont know whether to get the black and just buy te pink footmuff or get the pink bee.

decisions decisions
