Bugaboo Buffalo – The Ideal Pushchair for City Living or out in the Outdoors



Bugaboo Buffalo
If you enjoy being out in outdoors, away from the relentlessness of town life, life can be slightly more difficult if you have a young child. Many pushchairs are ideal for a city lifestyle, manoeuvring well over smooth pavements and around other pedestrians, however, when it comes to walking off the beaten path, getting around can quickly become a very difficult task. If it’s important to you to be able to easily move from town to all-terrain, it is well worth investing in a suitable pushchair for your child.

When it comes to finding an all-terrain pushchair, one name immediately springs to mind – The Bugaboo Buffalo. This is the ultimate in versatile strollers, flitting between town and country effortlessly and featuring a wide range of design features that help to set it apart from other products on the market; for example, the larger seating unit of the Buffalo means that it is designed to seat a child of up to 23kg, whereas many competitors can only hold a child of 15kg or less.

The ability to carry a heavier toddler means that the Buffalo chassis is also a very sturdy design that will remain steady and stable, even when pushed over rougher terrain. In addition to being able to a higher maximum weight of child than most other buggies, the Bugaboo Buffalo can also carry up to 6kg from hooks that are incorporated into the handlebars, and up to 10kg in the under seat basket. For many lightweight chassis, designed for urban living, this much weight would in many cases leave a pushchair unstable.

If you are out shopping or running errands, or out in nature for the day, when you are pushing a young child around with you, there can be quite a small limit to what you can carry with you. With the Buffalo all-terrain pushchair, this is not an issue.

All Terrain Features
The Buffalo incorporates a number of features that leave it equipped for even the roughest surfaces:
  • The chassis features four large foam filled wheels – ensuring a comfortable ride over all terrain, without the worry of punctures should you hit a sharp rock or branch
  • When terrain is extra difficult, the front wheels are designed to swivel or lock, depending on your needs, helping you to manoeuvre through rough terrain
  • If you hit sand or snow, you can remove the back wheels and convert the pushchair into two wheel mode. It can then be pulled easily across sandy beaches or snowy paths

City Use
While the design of the Bugaboo Buffalo means that it is perfect for outdoorsy parents, it is also equally well suited to an urban lifestyle. The front swivel wheels allow the pushchair to manoeuvre smoothly and easily, even when you are only using one hand. No matter what the city throws in front of you, the Buffalo is designed to provide a stable and comfortable ride at all times, staying in control even on busy city pathways.

Why Being a New Mum doesn’t mean you can’t Keep Fit

If you enjoy an active lifestyle you may have found that pregnancy has slowed you down, particularly in the latter stages as your bump expands, making it more difficult to get comfortable.  You may be looking forward to the birth of your baby in more ways than one, so that you can enjoy trips to the park and getting back into your fitness routine.

Now there’s an even better way to keep fit with your baby thanks to the new Bugaboo Runner.  This jogging pushchair has been specifically designed to accommodate fitness fans who don’t want to compromise on their level of activity just because they have a baby in tow.  With the Bugaboo Runner, parents can take care of their precious little ones, giving them fresh air and an exciting adventure at the same time as keeping fit.

What are the main benefits of the Bugaboo Runner?

The Bugaboo Runner comes in two versions – a complete jogging stroller or an extension for existing Bugaboo owners.  Whichever version you choose you can enjoy:


  • The ability to move faster when pushing your baby
  • A large under seat basket to hold all of your baby essentials
  • The ability to seat your baby facing you or facing the world
  • Height adjustable handle bars so you can run comfortably whilst pushing
  • Easy access speed control brake so that you have complete control over how fast you go


If you choose the extension version to adapt your existing Bugaboo it is compatible with:

(1) Bugaboo Cameleon³ seat
(2) Bugaboo Bee (2010 model and onwards) seat
(3) Bugaboo Donkey seat - version 1.1(recognisable by its wooden seat board)
(4) Bugaboo Buffalo seat

There is now no excuse to not get back into shape after having a baby, though we would not recommend you take up jogging if you have never done it before without first consulting your doctor or trainer.
