Bugaboo Donkey 5 Duo Complete Pushchair

The BubsNest Verdict

This is the luxury SUV of strollers—incredibly smooth to maneuver and genuinely grows with your family from one to two kids, but you'll pay premium prices and need to measure your doorways first. Perfect for families planning multiple children who have the budget and storage space; skip it if you're tight on either money or room, or only ever planning one child.

⚠️At its widest in duo mode, it won't fit through standard UK doorframes (typically 76cm), so measure your home's narrowest entry points before buying.
