"Sex and the City" stroller

Does anyone watch SATC? If so, do you know what kind of stroller Miranda was using this week? It looks pretty cool.

Some of the very knowledgeable ladies on the stroller board at parentsplace.com identified it yesterday as a Bugaboo Frog. It is not available in the US yet, but the company is apparently working on it. I tried to do a link here to the stroller board where they discussed it - it was under topic #39. I really liked that cute stroller, too!

You can buy the stroller complete with the bassinet. Also comes with rain cover and mosquito net. I didn't get the bassinet because I no longer have an infant so didn't need it. I did get the Bugaboo rolling board as I have a four year old and it is awesome, much, much better than the Lascal Kiddy/Buggy Board.

Well, if she wants to try it out, she is going to have to take a trip to Boulder, CO! But I can give you a review if you want!

Yep... I'd love to hear a review. It just looks so cool! How did you manage to get one anyway?

Thanks,

Without doubt this is the easiest stroller I have ever pushed. It steers magnificently, it blows all the other strollers I have ever owned (and that’s a lot) out of the water in terms of steering and handling.

It isn’t the easiest stroller to use in the fact you need to remove the seat to fold the chassis, but this only takes two seconds to do, so it isn’t really isn’t a biggie. The stroller is just under 20lbs so it is quite light for a full feature stroller too. The break is on the handle bar which I think is an excellent feature. I find it really useful at crosswalks when I can pop the break on while waiting for the light to change and then disengage it in a second and I am off, no having to adjust the front wheels to get going again, which I find often happens with my Teutonia PiXXel.

It is also extremely versatile, in that the seat can face either way, and it can be quickly converted to an A/T stroller by reversing the handle. It is also unique in that it can be pulled along on the two large wheels, so that it will even go over sand.

The basket isn’t that generous, but it has a neat feature of a drawstring cover over it which helps keep objects inside and allows you load it up higher than if it had no cover.

As you would expect in a (very) expensive stroller the quality is excellent. It is superbly engineered in every aspect. I really wish I had bought this stroller earlier, because my stroller baby is now 2.5 years old, so I envisage probably only one year of use out of it -- unless we have baby #4!

I bought the stroller direct from Bugaboo in Holland, but it will be available in the US in a few months I believe. I have emailed Bugaboo asking them if they know exactly when. If anyone wants the purchasing information, I would be happy to forward the info I recieved from Bugaboo.

If you have anymore questions I would be happy to answer them.
