I've got to know! Have any of you ordered the new Bugaboo Bee yet? It seems to be all the rage -- I've been hearing about retailers selling out almost before they get the strollers in!

What do you think? Is it a must-have item? Or is it just a lot of hype?

Must be a regional thing!   When I lived in the NYC metro area, people had all these crazy expensive strollers and there I was with my Jeep stroller.    I cannot justify spending that kind of money on a stroller or other product.  How long do they use it?

The bugaboos are meant for different stages, as far as i can tell. One has a bassinet-type thing and the other acts more like a toddler stroller where the child is sitting up. (Don't quote me on that -- it's 5am vegas time) But the bee was supposed to be their less expensive, lighter weight stroller -- something kind of like the umbrella strollers we all buy for easy travel. At least, that's the impression I get! I'll find out more about them today or tomorrow at the show.

Just a side note -- one of my coworkers bought a bugaboo for her infant, who is just about three months old now -- and although he's a taller baby than the average, he's already too long for his bugaboo! needless to say, she is NOT happy.

Ha!  That is funny!  

I think its one of the ugliest things I've ever seen... again they are NOT in style around me.. I'd get laughed at pushing that thing around!

That is a nice looking stroller.

My dilemma now - I have a double stroller where the kids are side by side.  It's not much wider thana wheel chair, but it doesn't fit anywhere!   At the mall, I always get stuck in aisles. Annoying.

I want a double stroller that isn't bulky. Anyone have any suggestions?

brenna -- check out valco baby strollers -- i spent a lot of time at their booth today and they are freaking AWESOME. i'm going to be posting about it, but google them and check out what they have. mutsy and inglesina also have some cool ones, but valco is my very favorite right now

-m

I'll check it out. 

My problem is that I live in the freaking middle of nowhere.  My closest Babies R Us is over an hour away.  I want a side by side stroller, but really want to "test drive" one. 

ooh, thats so true... the other ones i've seen and like are the peg perego plikos and the uppa baby -- i'm sure you can at least find the peg at the BRU, even though it's so far away. omg

ACTUALLY -- pm me!!!!

I'm borrowing a DuoGlide from my neighbor now.  We have FIVE strollers in our garage right now!  Our Jeep individual one, a double umbrella, a single umbrella, the DuoGlide and a double jogging stroller.   I love the Jeep one, but can't find one I love as much that is a double one.
