Bugaboo ticks all the boxes with its game-changing strollers for discerning parents.

My Reading Room
Dutch brand, Bugaboo, created the world’s first modular stroller 20 years ago, allowing parents to travel with their little ones with ease and style. Today, its strollers have become the pram du jour among stylish mums, including the likes of Victoria Beckham, Sienna Miller and, most recently, Kate Middleton, who bought a pram for her third child, Prince Louis. Whether you’re new parents or a seasoned pair who loves travelling everywhere with your kids in tow, Bugaboo strollers are built to last, with high-quality materials and components that can be individually replaced if needed.

BUGABOO BEE 5
This light stroller drives like a dream, with redesigned front wheels and four-wheel suspension to provide a smooth ride, added stability and manoeuvrability. Parents get great mileage with the Bugaboo Bee5, as it grows with the child, from a newborn who needs to lie flat (the Baby Cocoon accessory is sold separately), to a toddler. Baby sleeping soundly in the car seat? Just use the Bugaboo adaptors to snap the car seat onto the stroller frame. With an impressive range of colour and fabric choices for accessories like the sun canopy, seat liner and more, there are almost 800 possible looks for this stroller.

BUGABOO FOX
The latest model boasts to be the smoothest, most stable ride on all surfaces. Advanced all-wheel suspension and big tyres mean a bump-free ride for your child, even on a gravelly trail. Weighing just 9.9kg with a sturdy chassis, the Bugaboo Fox is a cinch to lift and carry. Whether you’re placing it in a car, or carrying it up the stairs, the one-piece fold and self-standing design make for easy transporting. Parents will appreciate that the stroller’s seat is positioned at an optimal height that lets you lift your child in and out easily, and the eco-conscious will be happy to know that 92 recycled PET bottles are used to create the Core Collection fabrics for this stroller’s accessories.

BUGABOO BY WE ARE HANDSOME
This is Bugaboo’s second limited-edition accessories collection with Australian swim and active wear label, We Are Handsome. A huge nod to summer, the bold print and vivid colours are perfect for our tropical weather and trips to the beach with the family. Available to purchase as an accessory, the UPF 50+ fabric protects the little one from the sun, while mesh panels let cool breezes through. A star piece from the collection is the Summer Seat Liner, which provides extra comfort for the child on warmer days. Make a statement all year-round with the Bugaboo by We are Handsome Sun Canopy (above), or the Top Set (sun canopy and side luggage basket cover). Both are available as part of a complete stroller, or can be purchased separately as accessories for current owners.
