This is just one of the reviews of the Bugaboo Bee 5 stroller. Check for more reviews, specifications, or ask our stroller expert: Go to Bugaboo Bee 5 detail
  • Good center of gravity
  • Seat enlargement option
  • Optional canopies/fabrics/handle covers
  • Easy fold
  • Quality materials
  • An empty pushchair is crazy noisy when pushed
  • Small wheels
  • Long and heavy after folding (for a travel stroller)
  • No legrest

It didn't fit our lifestyle at all - I owned it for two weeks and had to sell it afterwards.

Fisrt, I really minded the plastic seat. When the pushchair is empty and you push it, it clacks and is so noisy that I was ashamed to push it. When the child's inside, it's okay, but my little one wants to walk quite often, I cannot hold her inside all the time.

Next, the size&weight versus the wheel size. The wheels are SOOO tiny, which I could accept, but if this should be a travel stroller, I feel it is way too long after folding, and heavy - and it doesn't stand by itself, even... So not the best for traveling.

I must praise the height adjustability of the backrest - a nice feature, even if, funnily, that is probably the reason of the noisy empty seat. I like that you can swap the canopies and the changing of the handle covers or fabric sets. Even the suspension is nice, but I sometimes couldn't care less with all the noisy ride 🙈

I also minded the missing legrest, mainly when the child faces the parent - there's no place to put her feet on. The biggest plus is, on the other hand, a very good center of gravity - the buggy was stable and easy to steer in both directions of the seat.

4.4/5
