Stroller Review: Bugaboo Fox 3
Our family has been on a quest to find the "perfect" stroller since Naiya was born. We were lucky enough to find a few along the way that have come QUITE close (I do LOVE my running stroller) but it wasn't until we tried this Bugaboo Fox3 stroller that we truly fell in love! Sharing a review of this stroller today, along with some photos of our family walking around our new neighborhood with it.
The Fox3: How It Works
This is the newest stroller from the Bugaboo line. It seems most similar to popular strollers like the UPPAbaby or Nuna, The Fox3 stroller set comes with a chassis with pre-assembled grips, wheels with pre-assembled wheel caps, seat/bassinet frame (we went with black but also love the gray!), rotating carry handle, canopy wires, canopy clamps, seat fabric with comfort harness, bassinet fabric with mattress, apron, sun canopy fabric (we chose pink), under seat basked, rain cover, and car seat adapters.
We love that there's a reversible and reclinable seat that allows your baby to face you or the world, with three recline positions in both directions. There's also a two-wheel position for sand and snow--this stroller works beautifully on all terrains and pushes with the touch of a finger.
The Fox3 Stroller Review: Pros & Cons
I must admit I'm grateful my hubby was home when our Fox3 stroller arrives because putting it together did feel a bit intimidating. He nailed it, though, and said it was straightforward and easy.Overall, once this stroller is built, it feels so luxurious. Sadie LOVES it, it has great room for storage underneath, and it's super versatile. Our FAVORITE part is the ride along "comfort wheeled board" for older kids. While this stroller model does not have a double stroller component for two babies, it's perfect if you have a baby/toddler and another toddler/older kid. Naiya LOVES riding on this attachment which easily clicks into the back of the stroller.
There's room on it for her to stand and even to sit down like she's riding a bike.It is a bit heavier than some other strollers I've tried. The positive here is that the stroller its nice and sturdy. That said, getting it in the trunk is possible on my own but it's not always easy. Folding the stroller up also took me a bit of a learning curve: you have to slide buttons up on each side simultaneously.
Once you nail this once, you've got it.All in all, you really can't go wrong with this stroller. While the price point is on the higher end, it's equally chic and durable. Your baby or toddler will love it and so will you.What are your favorite stroller brands and why? Tell us all the things in the comment section below. Thanks so much for stopping by!
