Yes, it's hot. Yes, it is the upper echelon must-have when it comes to baby items. But, that's not why anyone should plunk down serious cash for a Bugaboo Stroller. The fact of the matter is, that -- in spite of its fashionable, change at a moment's notice color schemes, multiple gadgets and accessories, and its faddish following - this is a top quality, finely manufactured stroller that will take a child from infancy until they are too big to use it.

As the say in the business, there are many imitators... And, that is the case with the Bugaboo Stroller. Not only does everyone want a Bugaboo these days, but it also seems that every manufacturer wants to make a Bugaboo and with good reason. A Bugaboo Stroller is durable and tough, designed for serious use over a broad range of terrains. It is engineered to last and is made with quality parts.

For anyone who has ever tried pushing a cheap stroller anywhere beyond a sidewalk, the tires on the Bugaboo Frog and the Bugaboo Chameleon models will feel as though they are worth the entire purchase price. These burly wheels will stand up to snow and sand, allowing these Bugaboo models to truly be the all terrain vehicles of the baby world.

When using a stroller, the assumption is that walking is involved. When walking, there will be things that need to be carried, such as baby supplies and other essentials, as the hands will be occupied with pushing the stroller. Unfortunately, many stroller makers seem to neglect to provide sufficient cargo space. Not a problem with the Bugaboo. Plenty of space is provided, with even the small, lightweight version offering 4.2 gallons worth of space underneath.

Standard features include easy care fabric that resists the mess and stains typical of little ones, wheels that turn 360 degrees, and reversible seats and handles. Some models offer an extendable handle bar, which is very convenient when the stroller is used by multiple caregivers, allowing everyone to be comfortable.

Along with the many baby fashionista-type accessories that can be purchased above and beyond what the Bugaboo Stroller comes with are some seriously practical items sure to make any stroller travel much more pleasant for baby and parent. The Bugaboo Frog and Bugaboo Chameleon even offer a sturdy and comfortable wheeled board that can be used to add another child.

The Bugaboo Stroller, despite the faddish nature of its rise to fame in the world of baby accessories, is a quality product. It is built to stand up to real world use and designed to last. Considering the amount of money that the average consumer is likely to spend repeatedly replacing cheap strollers during the time that they need them for their children, the price of a Bugaboo Stroller is not excessive. The Bugaboo Stroller is definitely a case of, as the old adage says, you get what you pay for. Pay for the quality and enjoy the fashion for free.
