Bugaboo Donkey 6 Single to Double Side-by-Side Full Size Stroller - Cocoa Brown: Bassinet Reclining Seat, Rubber All-Terrain Tires, Adjustable Handle

This stroller is a beast, a beautiful beast, but still a beast. It was lovely to push and the all terrain wheels floated over the portions of our neighborhood with gravel roads. The included luggage attachment is large and fully zips and includes handlebar attachments for when using it as a double. I appreciated the extra storage space while carting around my 4 kids. It meant I didn’t need to carry around another bag with their things. The seat fabric feels nice and substantial and wraps around the entire seat frame. My only real complaint is how shallow the seat is. I have an average 6 year old, a petite 5 year old, average 2.5 year old, and a smaller 1.5 year old, and even the 1.5 year old looked a bit odd in the seat. If I recline the seat a bit, I get a little more space, but it’s pretty reclined if your kids want to be able to sit up and look around. The stroller is quite heavy, but that’s to be expected in one with this many features, and we mostly use it for walking around the neighborhood and taking walks to the shops down the way, I’m not lugging it in and out of my car all the time. I love how easy it is to convert from single to double and would have been all over this when my now 1.5 year old was a newborn. And the large underbasket fits so much—my 6 year old even smashed himself in there and said it was pretty comfy (I swear kids are like cats sometimes)—and is still easy to push fully loaded. All in all, this is a wonderful option if you don’t mind the size and are looking for something that can quickly and easily go single to double, is durable, and pushes/maneuvers like a dream. I received this stroller from Stellar Product Testing Panel in exchange for my honest feedback.

I received this stroller as part of the Stellar Panel Review and this stroller is a workhorse!! Our family has used it for everything- from grocery store trips, park outings, and zoo excursions. I will say that loading it in and out of the car isn't my favorite thing as it is not only heavy, but also not super compact. However, once it is out, you don't realize the weight as it pushes easily with one hand and glides like a dream even on rougher terrain. This stroller is PLUSH. I love it from an aesthetic and comfort perspective. It has a lot of cushion that my little one loves and I feel good knowing she is cozy and secure during our outings. The one-handed recline and reverse features also make this super convenient for us moms that are always multitasking. From a storage perspective, I will say that with 1 kiddo it is ample. The attachment bag is massive and I could easily store a blanket, adult sized and child sized water bottle, a small cooler with snacks,and still had room to spare. Additionally the undercarriage was pretty spacious as well and easily fit a full sized book bag upright that we had stuffed full of diapers, wipes, wash cloths,bibs etc. Additionally the seat and attachment storage have little pockets which I found super convenient for things I wanted easy access to like my cell phone. While I LOVE the ability to convert to a double stroller, specifically a side by side as that is my preference when considering double strollers, I would imagine you lose a lot of the undercarriage storage when you convert to a double. Overall I highly recommend this stroller for its durability, comfort and aesthetic.

Thanks to the generosity of the Stellar Product Testing Panel, my family was able to trial this stroller at no cost to us. What a blessing for our growing bunch! To begin, we started with just the front-facing toddler seat and the side-saddled carry bag and that was probably my favorite combination of the positions we tried. Being able to load up the carryall bag AND the incredibly spacious underneath compartment was amazing. I have owned other high-end 'luxury' strollers before and I will say that this storage combo is unbeatable from what I have seen. That said, a lot of the other qualities that compare with other strollers in this price range are simply on par, not necessarily above average. The wheels are great and super rugged (we have a loose stone path on the pond behind our home) but so are others in this price range and below. The handlebar is nice (not the lovely brown leather that others are), but again, comparable with others in the price range. I also don't care for how to expand the handlebar to accommodate transitions to other seats. Feels clunky and too many moving parts...I worry something may snap at some point if we don't take care. The canopy on the toddler seat and bassinet is incredible - near full coverage - but again, you'll get this on other models with lesser price tags. Rumble bar is another nice feature, but was hoping for an included snack tray. When I looked up the price of the compatible snack trays, it was astronomical in my opinion. Plus, I'll need to purchase another toddler seat and that's also another added BIG cost. The bassinet is great if you have babies who fit and are in the stroller walking season (i.e. summer in Ohio), but they outgrow it so quickly and this almost feels like a waste to me. I'd rather just purchase the car seat converter (also not included). Lots of little accessories and pieces that are all with a high price tag and this stroller turns into a $2500 investment very quickly. The stroller is truly lovely, a real piece of art even, but with young kids and getting thrown in the back of an SUV all the time (which fits very comfortably, might I add), I just have a tough time stomaching the price. Fortunately, I can justify continued use of it as our family grows and eventually invest in another toddler seat and even the glider board for the back. So many amenities in it and all really wonderful - I can see this being a HUGE asset at the beach where you're walking with a lot of stuff and don't have hands for it all (enter the side caddy bag and huge underbasket) or with older siblings ball games and all the snack and equipment that comes along with it. It's super easy to push, even one handed, and it seems very durable. I only work about the cosmetic aesthetics and beauty getting marred as my kids and husband beat up on this thing! Overall, very grateful to have but don't think I would personally invest in this item and all the paraphernalia with so many other less expensive comparables on the market today.

We are currently expecting our second so we have been doing some research on some options for a double stroller for our soon to be “two under two”. The Bugaboo Donkey 6 was on the top of my list so I was so elated when I received this stroller from the Stellar Product Testing Panel. It is absolutely gorgeous and looks very luxe! It’s even better that the Bugaboo Donkey 6 is constructed with sustainability and durability in mind. The use of vegan leather on the handle bar for example, is great and still looks amazing! The stroller was very easy to put together! For visual people like me you can just click on a QR code and follow the instruction video, which is clutch when you don’t have the time to go through the full instructions manual. That said, it is great that Bugaboo provides both! I love that the bassinet converts to a toddler seat once the baby has outgrown it so you don’t need to buy another seat for that stage. I do need to purchase an additional seat to use for my toddler because I want to keep the bassinet as-is for when the baby comes. But I am excited to have the baby and my toddler side by side so they are able to interact. I am also thrilled to have the option to have them both facing me so I can see them and reach out as needed. The ability to go from a mono to a double stroller with the click of a (few) button(s) is also life changing and so easy to do. The bassinet was easy to click into place. I love the ease of use, it is very spacious and I appreciate the peek holes, which will help provide airflow and allow me to check on the baby easily. I will return to update the review once I secure the toddler seat. I am very keen to test out the single-handed recline feature and the quick-click, no-rethread harness! The Donkey 6 also includes the ability to have additional storage with a side bag that can be attached next to the bassinet/toddler seat in mono mode. The bag can be used as a diaper bag or even a shopping bag when you are alone with your baby/toddler and picking up some groceries. This is something I personally look forward to doing. While I love the option to attach the bag to the handle bars when in double mode I didn’t love that the weight limit is significantly less when used in that manner. However, the storage basket at the bottom of the stroller is really spacious and can easily hold everything you may need for all outings! I also have to mention that the stroller handles incredibly well! You can literally just push it with one hand and it provides a smooth ride. I also love that you can lock the front wheels which is great for navigating in snow if you have to do that too. It makes outings in the winter a lot easier, which is great! I am most excited about using this stroller in double mode and can’t wait to get the toddler seat so I can do so! I would definitely recommend this stroller for growing families. However, do keep in mind that it is an investment as it is not the cheapest stroller especially if you also purchase the additional accessories. That said, so far it appears to be a worthwhile investment!

Simple to set up, simple to use, but definitely not your typical simple stroller. This stroller will grow with your little one and your growing family. Why buy two or even three strollers, when this one can be the one and only? We are looking forward to having this stroller as we grow from a family of three to a family of four this fall. My toddler enjoyed the strolls around our neighborhood that we took with this stroller. It was so easy to get him in and out of it, especially with the easy harness and comfortable seat with lumbar support and a firm bottom. I loved the caddy this comes with. It removes the need for an additional diaper bag and leaves all the extra storage in the bottom for running errands or other activities. Having the option of my toddler facing me or the outside is a big win, it keeps privacy, but is also a great option for protection from wind or sunshine. This stroller is peak manufacturing. From the solid rubber wheels, to the plush bassinet mattress, and ingenious expanding design it is sure to impress you, your family and everyone you pass by! You won’t regret purchasing the bugaboo donkey 6. A big thank you to the Stellar Review Panel for allowing me to test and review this stroller.

I was given this stroller from the Stellar Review Testing Panel. I’ve been searching for a double stroller that will work for our toddler and our soon-to-be baby, and I knew I wanted a side-by-side option—but those can be hard to manage. The Bugaboo Donkey 6 is easier to use than I expected and honestly better than I hoped for. Out of the box, assembly was straightforward. Switching between single and double mode took a little practice at first, but now that I’ve done it a few times, it’s quick and easy. My biggest concern with a side-by-side stroller was fitting through doorways. In single mode, it’s wider than most strollers (because of the side basket), but it still fits through doorways easily. In double mode, it fits through larger doorways without an issue and can get through standard doorways with a bit of maneuvering. If needed, you can remove a seat or bassinet or collapse it into single mode. So far, we’ve been able to make it through everywhere. Both the toddler seat and bassinet are easy to install and adjust. I really like that the toddler seat can face either parent or outward, and it reclines to multiple positions, including nearly flat for naps. We haven’t used the bassinet yet, but plan to once our new baby arrives. The canopy is excellent. Fully extended, it provides great sun coverage, enough for naps on the go. Even partially open, it still offers good coverage while letting the child see out. The storage is another standout. The under-basket is huge and easily fits our diaper bag with room to spare. The side basket adds even more space, especially when using it in single mode. For a double stroller, it’s surprisingly easy to steer. It turns smoothly and feels manageable on neighborhood walks. It handles pavement and gravel well. I haven’t tried it on snow or trails yet. The only downside is that it takes up a lot of trunk space in our Honda CR-V, but that’s pretty typical for a stroller this size. For us, it’s worth the tradeoff.

This stroller is like the big daddy of strollers. It’s beefy without being cumbersome. It’s convenient with the diaper bag option to sit side by side next to my kiddo as we are strolling along. It fits in the back of my SUV without obstruction of my window. It’s sleek and smooth to push around. The wheels keep up with where you’re trying to go, and don’t go backwards or to the side when you’re just trying to roll straight. I love it so much, and my 5 year old will be able to join in for the ride since we have the option to get another seat or the board attachment. It isn’t complicated or fussy to break down or pop up - which I really appreciate since my hands are always full. The construction is top-notch and the build quality is great, it’s a higher-end product and you can really tell. I am so grateful to have it, and I know we will use it till the wheels fall off. The materials are thick, and durable. The handle is so comfortable and wrapped in what feels like leather, which is superior compared to spongier materials I’ve had on other products. TLDR; excellent material quality, easy ride, simple break down/pop up, and it looks incredible! I received this stroller from the Stellar Product Testing Panel. Thank you, Stellar!!!

I received the Bugaboo Donkey 6 stroller from Stellar Product Testing Panel and I am absolutely impressed with the quality, durability and craftsmanship. I own a previous model and the upgrades that Bugaboo has made are definitely in line with their green initiatives as well as their luxury status. The stroller ride is incredibly smooth due to their large all terrain wheels. The stroller feels sleek, luxurious, and very well-built due to its strong frame, quality fabrics, and embroidered logo. It definitely has that high-end, structured design you expect from the Bugaboo brand. I love how this changes from a single to a double stroller with ease and is still small enough to fit through a doorway. The toddler seat and harness is perfectly designed because I can get my toddler in and out or reclining quickly and seamlessly with no issues. The extra large canopy is one of my favorite features because of how much coverage my daughter gets from the Florida sun. I love the mesh, breathable window all around the bassinet fabric—it’s great for airflow, especially in our warmer weather. The main show stopper on this stroller is the basket space. It is very large and the carrying capacity is perfect for my family and our travels. The included side bag is functional and has straps to hang on the handlebar when the stroller is in double mode, which is very convenient and ensures that all parts of the stroller are able to be used in both single and double modes. There are a few design choices that could be improved. Adjusting the handlebar requires unclipping and pulling it out rather than a simple button push, which isn’t the most user-friendly. Also, the lie-flat seating is only rear-facing, but it’s not a huge downside. These are such minor issues, and overall this stroller is pretty much the best single to double stroller on the market!
