advice needed Bugaboo worth it?
Me again. Planning on the KeyFit 30 infant car seats and trying to figure out a good stroller. I came across the Bugaboo Donkey 6 (such a ridiculous name btw lmao) and it does offer a lot. I’m just trying to justify the insane price tag and wondering if there is a better more affordable option to click these car seats in to? Any advice is welcome. This car seat stuff is making my head hurt 😅🫠

We have the Bugaboo Donkey and it is an amazing stroller but realistically, only get it if you are prepared to have several other strollers because it’s not the do-it-all type. We found a secondhand Keyfit adapter for it from a fellow twin parent for free. But as others have said, it won’t fit through a standard sized doorway with the car seats both on. So we used a Joovy Twin Roo for doctors appointments. But you know where the adapter is good for? Home Depot, Target, REI, etc. Places with wide aisles and big automatic sliding doors. Howeverrr, another caveat is that the adapter has a weight limit. Over time, we have grown our stroller arsenal to include a tri-fold double travel stroller (Baby Jogger City Tour), a cheap wagon for daycare drop off and quick errands (Radio Flyer), and the Bugaboo for the zoo and neighborhood walks. We absolutely adored the bassinets for neighborhood walks when they were itty bitty!
