Bugaboo cam or icandy peach or bugaboo bee?

[missytequila]

I can't decide! They all seem too expensive, but as I live in London and am out and about a lot, the buggy choice is important to me.

Can anyone tell me if the cameleon or peach are too big/heavy? They seem too bulky... On the other hand, while the bee is light and easy, it seems small for a toddler, not sure about using the cocoon, and not sure about the smaller wheels...

Can you share your experiences,opinions...

All of the ones you mention have small wheels at the front, which can be a problem. It really depends on where you want to take your buggy. If you're planning any off-road ventures (gravel, sand, grass and even the snow we've been having), then look at buggies that have larger wheels at the front, as the small ones tend to 'dig into' the ground. So I've been told by Bugaboo owners anyway...

The ICandy's are heavy.

Both the Bugaboos are light and easy to push.
I've had both Cameleon and Bee. I loved the Cameleon in carrycot mode but since my son grew out of carrycot I only used the Bee, so sold Cameleon. Bee is just so easy to push, fold etc. The cocoon is lovely when they are small too.
They are no use in snow though!!

icandy APPLE is heavy. icandy cherry isn't and think the peach is ok?

by the time you have a toddler you'll prob have a mclaren anyway.... bee may be a good option (will prob retain resale value on ebay too)

I have the Bee and I love it. Highly recommend. Bought the pushchair cosytoes and nest new, then got all the other bits 2nd hand so I can sell it as a complete package.

The cocoon/babynest is lovely but v.small. Perfect for a newborn tho.

MadameOvary - I am interested to read your glowing recommendation, as we are pretty much decided on the Bee for our May arrival.
Would you say the cocoon is necessary? I have been told that it's only really needed for a winter baby, but to me the seat unit doesn't look all that comfy for a newborn, and I would think it would benefit from the cocoon to make it less exposed and bit softer.
