What We Liked
- The bugaboo stroller is of high quality materials
- Easy to assemble
- Lightweight and can easily be moved around
What We Didn't Like
- None
Wheels and Maneuverability
It rolls on three air-filled tires with 16″ wheels in the back and 14″ wheel in the front. Unlike other strollers the front wheel is fixed and does not swivel, so in that way it can only used for jogging purpose.
If you are thinking to go to any city area or mall or any area where you need to move your Bugaboo stroller continue so it is not possible unless you lift the front wheel up first and then turn the bugaboo stroller.
The rear wheels have mud guards on top to prevent mud while jogging.
Seat & canopy
- The canopy of the bugaboo is very big & can cover a large area so that your baby can be protective by harsh weather .it cannot be detached from the frame.
- Just like all Bugaboo models it does not have a peekaboo window and the canopy is attached to the back of the seat with no way of detaching it.
- There is a large mesh peekaboo window with a magnetic closure which helps for air circulation in summer days.
- The seat is 13″ wide with 20″ seat back and a measurement of 23″ from the bottom of the seat to the top of the canopy.
- The lower weight limit of 37.5 lbs also might be a problem if you have a larger 4 year old baby.
- As the seat is reversible so you can run & move it according to your direction & can face your baby.
- The seat has one-hand lever recline that goes to a flat position, you can use this bugaboo with minimum of 6 months of baby as you can’t jog with infants.
- You also can not use it with infant car seat or bassinet like other bugaboo strollers.
Handle, safety & fold
- The whole handle bar from the base goes up and down. The bugaboo handle bar is covered with foam; it goes from 34″ up to 42″ from the ground.
- There is one run away strap which is attached to the handle bar & that is a safety features because you can hold it to your side when you feel the handle bar is going away from you while going down to hill area .
- There is one hand break & it’s located right next to the handle bar so it’s very easy to access. You can easily control speed and stop, using any hand.
- There is one removable swing-away bumper bar that is covered with foam.
- 5 point harness system gives safety to your baby even in rough surface & speed ride.
- There is a single pedal brake located between rear wheels but that is not too much easy to operate like other strollers but obviously It is a safety feature.
- To fold the bugaboo stroller First you have to take off the seat. Next, unlock the frame and bring the handle bar forward folding the bugaboo stroller then pull on the rear handle bar lifting up the frame till you hear a click.
- In this review you may find one thing that is not so good is the folded bugaboo stroller become little bulky & heavy.

Compatibility
I would like to end this “Bugaboo Runner Stroller Review” by suggesting you to go for it if you are a fitness lover & want a safe, durable & luxuries stroller for your baby .but having said that because of the fixed wheel it only fits for joggers parents not for every area you can take this out.
“Bugaboo Runner” also recommends this stroller is not for infants; baby should be of 6 or 9 months. Bugaboo provides 3-year warranty from the original date of purchase.
So after all pros & cons (not for jogger parent) you can take a decision favorable to you & your baby. Have a happy bugaboo ride.
