Solid Choice

The Bugaboo Donkey 6 is a well-regarded premium stroller that impresses parents with its smooth ride, generous storage, and ability to accommodate a growing family. While its large size and high price tag give some pause, most find it a worthwhile investment for those who need a durable, flexible pushchair. It particularly shines for city-dwelling parents who value manoeuvrability and all-terrain capability.

What parents love

Smooth rideParents highlight the Donkey 6's all-terrain wheels and suspension, providing a comfortable ride on various surfaces.
Generous storageThe stroller offers ample storage space, including a large basket and additional compartments, making it easy to transport essentials.
Versatile for growing familiesThe Donkey 6 can transition from a single to a double stroller, accommodating a second child or carrycot, suiting families with multiple young kids.

Worth knowing

Bulky when foldedSeveral parents mention the Donkey 6's large folded size, which can be challenging to fit in smaller car boots or storage spaces.
ExpensiveAt £1,530, the Donkey 6 is a significant investment, pricing it out of reach for some families.
Narrow doorwaysA few parents report difficulties navigating the stroller through some single doorways, especially in its double configuration.

Tips from parents

Before You Buy

Carefully measure your car's boot and doorways to ensure the Donkey 6's dimensions will work for your needs.

Shopping Tip

Consider purchasing the Donkey 6 from a retailer with a generous return policy, in case it doesn't suit your family.

Getting the Most Out of It
