Subject : bugaboo bee, any views ?

Hi, my lo is 6wks old. We borrowed a pilko pramette from a friend so that we could use it for a while until we wanted to get a stroller. But I'm finding it quite big and heavy, we live in a flat. And am considering the bugaboo bee. It can be used form birth and the pushchair can face both me and outwards which I like the idea of.
Any reviews would be great, thanks. Suz x

I don't have one, but a friend of mine with a 10 wk old baby does and she raves about it!
They live in a flat too, and she says it's very light and compact - doesn't have a bad word to say about it.

I was in a store today looking at the Icandy cherry which is very similar but slightly cheaper with a carry cot option. The bee is ok (look at reviews on www.babyfy.com) and sturdier than it looks. My only concern is that is does not have a carry cot option and that the seat looks smaller for the toddler stage. however that said is is a bugaboo which a great??!!!x

HI, i have a Bugaboo bee and its the best buggy ive had. ( and ive had a few after 4 children). Its great because it faces both front and rear. I have it facing me but the best bit is that it folds down without having to take the seat unit off. Although expensive for what it is i think it great. Sara

I know it's probably too late but I love my bee. It took me ages to decide as it is on the pricey side but it is worth every penny. I got mine as i am always using public transport by myself and i can also lift it with lo in it ( which is good for me as i am a weakling lol)

I was in mothercare and asked for a demo on a bee yesterday (I alrady have the cameleon and love bugaboo) the display model was rubbish and kept breaking and was very stiff. Even the shop assistant said they were not that reliable and had had a few returned broken. I really was not impressed with it al.
