Bugaboo Cam 3 or Buffalo...help!

[LisaW456]

I'm due my first baby in September and after looking around and deciding the Donkey wasn't quite right we ordered the Cam 3. I then read on hear about the Buffalo and I've just pre-ordered that. Before I cancel my cam 3 order do you think I've made the right choice? I just wish I could see the Buffalo first!

Both have advantages, I guess it depends if you'd benefit more from the cam being a bit lighter or from the buffalo being more all terrainy and stronger. Tough call! I'm a bit of a bugaboo convert and wish I could afford both, plus a bee. The cam is lovely though and for us lightness matters more than terrain.

Me too. I wish I could afford to get both. I do like the terrain aspect of the Buffalo and my DH likes that the seat unit is meant to be that bit higher up too. I loved the cam when I tried it out though and we were going to get the Andy Warhol flowers fabric set which I really liked. Ah decisions,decisions!

To be honest, I would get the Buffalo. BUT go and play with a Donkey, ignore the side basket, and you will have a really good feel for the Buffalo. The Buffalo fold is neater than the Cam fold ie flatter. But the Buffalo is heavier (the wheels are where a good chunk of the weight is though). But the features are SO much better on the Buffalo - the bigger hood, the better basket with access, the all terrain wheels, its easier to flip into 2 wheel mode, it feels more sturdy etc.

Just to add, I am putting an electric blue Donkey hood onto my Buffalo (if I can get one!) so there's no reason why you couldnt put an Andy Warhol Donkey one on either.

Thanks for the advice, I'll have another look at the Donkey. One of the things I don't like about the Donkey is the air filled tyres so the foam filled ones on the Buffalo are ideal. Good to know about the hood too!
