Bugaboo Cam footmuff - is it waterproof?

Has anyone tried one out in the rain? I find waterproof covers a bit of a pain. Well, a right pain, really.
Thanks!

No it's not waterproof, it would soak a bit of drizzle as the fleece inside is water resistant but that's all.

But I do find it the easiest rain cover to put on!! Far easier than P&T or maclaren in my opinion.

But, it rains, then it stops. Then it rains, then DS wants a biscuit. Then he wants a drink. Then he drops his toy.
We can be out for 2 hours or more. If it had a zip, it might be easier? Or just ask him to hold a brolly?

My DD isn't a fan of raincovers so if it's a wet day or forecast i often use my Frog as i take the small raincover of one of her other buggies and just wrap it over the bumper bar and pull hood down plus i have her face me to shield her from the rain...If it's torrential then i'd use the proper cover.

buy some waterproofing spray from a camping shop and spray it. it will work on the hood too.

Thanks. Both good ideas. I could seek out a mini raincover and spray just the hood.
