Bugaboo Bee
Stylish, practical and affordable The Bugaboo Bee is one of the most stylish pushchairs that you can buy. It's been in use since 2007 and was recently updated with the brand new Bee 6 model. The most notable differences between the previous models is the height-adjustable backrest, larger sun canopy and the circular joint system that allows you to move and face your seat away or towards from you.
The Bee 6 is also a much narrower vehicle and is ideal to squeeze into public transport and getting round those city streets that are difficult to navigate. Additionally its iconic yellow hue makes it easy for people to recognize you on the street and for Deliveroo cyclists to spot you when they're racing down the street.
It's a pleasure to drive too with a responsive steering and a nice smooth suspension. I also appreciated the spacious and deep basket, which is ideal for shopping trips and that it can be easily accessed whether the seat is facing you or away.
Another thing that really impressed me about the Bee is the way it is solid and sturdy feels. The handle bar feels great to hold, and the pushchair is just a pleasure to use. It's easy to see that this is a model that has been designed to last generation after generation.
Of course it's not inexpensively - the Bee costs PS1000 at full price however, it's a lot less than other top-end strollers. Considering its capabilities and build quality, I think it's definitely worth the money. Especially for those who are not as concerned with style as they are about function.
Baby Jogger Urban Glide Double

This stroller is sleek in design and is easy to push. The three large wheels are fitted with air-filled tires that allow for jogging pushchair or navigating difficult terrain effortless. It is lightweight, comes with a great ergonomic handbar, footbrake and a brake that can either be pushed or squeezed. The only downsides are that the seats don't recline and the canopy does not fully cover them.
This stroller can transform into a light baby stroller by adding a bassinet. It comes with a huge shopping basket that is ideal for grabbing food items while on your way to your home. It is also extremely durable, so it can be used as a jogging walker from the beginning and last for a long time.
It's too big and heavy to fit into narrow doors or a tiny boot. Therefore, it's best for families who have an expansive garage or driveway and don't mind carrying it around. Its price can be an issue for some, and it's not compatible with infant car seats, so you will require an additional bassinet for your child during the initial eight months or so.
