Hi all, 18w FTM here and no experience with strollers... To complicate things, we don't have a car and don't drive, so will need to rely on public transport (train/tube/bus) to get around with the baby. I'm looking at the different Bugaboo models and can't decide which one is best and easiest to maneuver for public transport? Bugaboo Bee? Would love to hear advices from experiencing mums pls. Thank you!

Cybex does good compact buggies, lots of models to choose from cybex balios, Priam, gazelle. They all fold small and are very well made. Have look on you tube videos, it may be some option to choose from. I needed something not too bulky myself but still wanted full size buggy, went for GB Maris.

We went for the Fox 3, main reasons it's light weight but feels sturdy! It's so easy to move and can be done one handed too.

Bugaboo bee is the one I see out and about in London the most.

We live semi rurally so got a Fox3 to handle dog walks and such. I've taken it into London a few times and I can't lie it's a pain in the arse in tight spaces. If baby is sleeping you really want to avoid having to fold for a wheelchair on a bus, for example. I think the fox5 has a one hand fold now but it's still one of the larger models.

Thank you all! We are in London so sounds like Bugaboo Bee is the way to go. Yeah I saw that Fox is quite sturdy but seems to take a lot of space even folded up.

I had a Bugbaoo Bee in London, used to take it on the bus and tube.

Bugaboo bee was big hype 14 years ago when I had my first child, so advantage is you can get it quite cheaply now second hand on marketplace or shpock. The only thing to consider with bugaboo is that child sitting position is rather low from the ground.
