3 out of 5 stars Mixed review - a great idea but could be better   December 6, 2008
Mixed thoughts on this one. We have a tall 3 yo boy who is nearing the 40lb weight limit for this item and have been using it since our newborn arrived 3 months ago.

Pros:
- sturdy: excellent wheel, attaches solidly etc - basically what you would expect from Bugaboo;
- triangular shape does help to keep the board as much out of the way of parents' feet as possible (having said that, we are both tall with larger feet and end up straddling it or walking alongside it frequently);
- cool look; this is vitally important in helping an older sibling to feel okay with having a baby in 'his' stroller (ours calls his board the 'skateboard' and shows it off to his friends. It gets a lot of comments from strangers out and about, which helps. And he happily gets on it to go home after a trip to the park, instead of the usual whining and protesting).

Cons:
- it's a swine to put on; you have to lay the stroller on its side to instal it and it is fiddly;
- can't fold the stroller down properly with the board on, so it is a pain for in-and-out-of-the-car (would be fine if you could leave the stroller set up for most of the time and don't need to put it in the car much, though);
- can't access the basket if you are using the bassinet too. Limited access to the basket if you are using the carseat attachment.
- unstable if your child is tall and/or approaching the 40lb weight limit; if they decide to suddenly step off or lean their weight to one side, the whole stroller lurches to one side. It is also hard to push over bumps and ramps unless you get the angle just right.
- unless you have very small feet, you'll be side-stepping the board as you walk, which can be aggravating.

If you are likely to get a few months' use out of it, and want to use your Bugaboo without investing in a new double-stroller, it is worth it, even if just to keep your bigger child out of trouble in the supermarket or to lure them out of the playground for a short walk home. Not great for everyday use, though. We keep ours in the 'up' position as much as possible and only pull it down when our preschooler is really tired and cranky and we need to get home quickly.



1 out of 5 stars not very user friendly   September 4, 2008

This seems like it should be fantastic, and my toddler is thrilled to jump on. Unfortunately, you can't push the stroller and walk properly with this thing attached to the stroller. It hits your feet, so you have to walk awkwardly on the side of the stroller. You also have to hang on very tightly to the stroller and your toddlers hands, otherwise the entire stroller tips backward.


4 out of 5 stars Alternative to double stroller   June 9, 2008

I bought the wheeled board for my 2 1/2 year old. She loves to ride on the board and does not want to get off. The only down side is that it is very difficult to walk behind the stroller. I find myself and my husband both having to walk to the side. Another review mentioned the same thing. The board does work with the bassinet. I have the Frog.


3 out of 5 stars Great product, not great for the Frog   January 13, 2008
 4 out of 4 found this review helpful

My 2.5 year old loves riding on the board. We use it with a carseat, and she loves being able to look at her baby sister and talk to us without yelling and craning her head back. It is very sturdy and smooth, goes over curbs fine (we live in NYC.) The problem is that we have a Frog and the board sticks way out, making it impossible to walk normally at all. You have to walk to the side of the stroller, pushing with one hand. Do not get this if you have a Frog. I'm looking into getting a stroller handle extender (saw another Bugaboo with one) so I hope that will solve the problem. I'm disappointed in Bugaboo, though.


5 out of 5 stars Great Alternative to a Bulky Double Stroller   August 16, 2007

My DD was 2 yrs and 4 months when our 2nd child was born. I walk everywhere and really did not want to walk everywhere pushing a 30 lb. double stroller. As a NYC mom I didn't want to get a huge double stroller that wouldn't fit through store aisles or turn easily through elevators or maneuver through doorways. So I decided to try out this wheeled board instead. I figured my oldest was old enough to stand for shorter trips, and any time I was walking long distances I would probably have my husband around anyway so if needed we could always take a small little umbrella stroller for her.

We have used the wheeled board for 10 months now, and honestly I have never felt the need to take an umbrella for my oldest. She loves standing on her board. It looks like its really fun, I wouldn't mind getting a ride on one! I think its a great transition for her before I force her to walk everywhere. It gives her some exercise by making her stand, but its definitely easier for her than walking would be.

I have the chameleon, so I hike up the handle bar all the way to give her more room. (My husband and I are both tall, so we would probably do this anyway.)

It is so easy to push. I don't have a problem kicking my feet on the board. (This was my main concern before I got the board.) Even when I drop off my oldest at camp, I usually just leave the board down since its so non-interfering with my stride. That being said, its super easy to fold it up and get it completely out of your way too.

The only negative to having the board on the stroller is that it somewhat makes access to the basket a little harder. But its really not too bad.

I ALWAYS get comments from other parents asking me about it. I have seen so many parents holding their oldest child's hand while pushing a snap n go and struggling. I however, just tell my oldest child to jump on and away we go! (Much faster than waiting for a toddler to walk!)
I highly recommend this wheeled board!

Save yourself the aggravation and space of a double stroller and BUY THIS!!!
