Bugaboo fox 5 Vs Ickle bubba stomp V3/luxe

I'm looking for an all terrain pram that will cope with walks on grass/rural sometimes muddy pathways and these two seem to be the best option. Does any one have any experiences with either that they would be willing to share please?
I know there's a big price difference but I've found a few in great condition on Facebook at similar prices to each other.

I previously had a very all terrain three wheeler but looking for something a little less bulky and when needed (a hike up a steep hill for instance) baby will be in a carrier.

That's a bit like comparing a Vauxhall and a Mercedes 😂

Yes, bugaboos are often termed the rolls Royce of prams

That's good to know thank you, I didn't do much research last time but definitely know what I'm aiming for this time!

My fox 5 did pretty well through some thick sticky mud in the woods a few weeks ago! Would recommend 😊

I have the stomp v4 and I think it’s great but when I see the fox I know it’s better. I especially love the long cover/shade on the fox and it looks sleeker. The handle also is sturdier. I’m very happy with the stomp because I found the fox very expensive and so comparatively I think it’s great and I use a snooze shade for a longer shade. So all in all it’s okay. But if they are the same price go for the fox I think.

Did a company seriously call itself Ickle Bubba?
If I was a new parent I'd be giving the a serve.

Flopsy145 · 22/03/2024 06:43

Thank you all!
@Pinklilly definitely if I was buying new I would go for stomp as it's far more reasonable and still does what I need but because I've found two Foxes on FB marketplace ill explore those first!
@CheapThrillsMeanNothing yes 😂 although is bugaboo really any better!

@Flopsy145
Agree that Bugaboo is another silly infantile name, not quite as bad as Icklebubba though.

I have an ickle.bubba stomp v4. It's good for the price I paid. £200 like new second hand. I also have a bugaboo donkey that I bought second hand and it's much better. The ickle bubba you need 2 hands free to recline it or remove the bumper bar which you then have to put somewhere. The bugaboo has a one handed recline and a bumper bar that unfastens at one side then swivels out of the way. They both handle a woodland walk pretty well. The bugaboo is a noticeably nicer push on the flat. Given my time over I'd get the donkey when I had my first child and use it to its full potential.
