Gecko is smaller, has no bumper bar or adjustable handle and you can't buy different fabrics.

Frog and Cam quite similar. Frog doesn't have adjustable handle but you get a bumper bar and the cam fabrics fit on it.

You can only buy Cams new, the others aren't made anymore.

You can buy Frogs brand new if you live in America...I have a Frog and a first generation Cameleon...If i'm honest i prefer the Frog as it's a lot easier to push...But i'm keeping my Cameleon and selling the Frog, mainly because the handle on the Frog just feels a bit too high for me at 5'2" plus i've had it for 21 months and feel like having the Cam instead and can't justify both plus don't have the space either...I'm selling the foam tyres i bought as it's easier to push both with air filled tyres.

I've only had a gecko, but would have prefered a cam.

can i ask why 5?

what about the cam or the bee?
how much heavier/harder to handle is the cam the bee looks like my big baby would grow out of it quite early

what about first vs second gen cam what't the difference?
thanks

Difference between 1st and 2nd is...2nd have foam filled tyres but to be honest i find they make it harder to push...You can buy foam filled to put onto Frogs and 1st gen and probably Geckos as well...The handle adjustment on 1st and 2nd is different...Looks to be the same, as the way the Bee changes height adjustment...Different fabrics...With 1st gen you could get fleece and canvas fabrics...2nd gen only canvas fabrics but of course there's alway fleece fabrics to buy via eBay...I personally have a Bee Plus and i find it the easiest to push...The Bee Plus has an adjustable seat to accomodate children for longer...Now my DD is very small at 21 months so she'll easily fit in the seat until 4 if i needed her to.

Would have prefered an adjustable handle and bumper bar.

Bee+ is loads bigger than the Bee. My DS3 looked massive in a Bee when he was 14 months. No good really.
