Best lightweight buggy to use with a buggy board?


Recommended Posts

Hello


I have a (heavy) 2.9 year old and a 8 months old. We use a Phil&Teds which works quite well but are looking to move to a buggy board arrangement as the toddler is wanting to walk more and more. I have a MacLaren Quest but I can't imagine it working with a buggy board for long distances.


Can anyone recommend a good lightweight buggy that works well with a buggy board? E.g.how is the Bugaboo Bee?


Thanks very much!

the bee is good with a buggy board, but basically anything that can parent face with an extendable handle is your best bet.


you don't want to go too lightweight as it puts a lot of strain on the frame especially on corners. apparently the new bee3 has a sturdier frame but the bee plus is fine imo.


also choose a board that has a decent height - i used the lascal maxi on the bee and when i walked my feet sort of went under the board. having said that i always wore trainers not flip-flops - if you do kick it with bare toes, its very painful!


i also used a board with a babyjogger city select in singles mode, that was my best arrangement by far.

    • Please understand that I am not doubting the word of anyone who has posted here with problems with bought-in prepared meat, but (I am old) uncooked meat (perfectly 'good' meat) does smell often, we are too used to shrink wrapped and chilled supermarket meat which can be almost scent free - so we are surprised when 'butcher's' meat does smell (and often, if it is uncooked, quite strongly). Indeed game which is high can smell quite strongly, and not in a good way to our 21st C sensibilities, without being off - as in food poisoning off. Certainly prepared meat, when cooked, should smell enticing, and not at all bad - so the experiences quoted above are certainly very worrying - but younger people reading this should not be concerned, particularly, if fresh (raw) meat they have bought from e.g. a proper butchers has a smell to it. Which is not to say that something which smells rank shouldn't be a point of complaint. Even the smell of high-ish game, if left unwrapped, should dissipate once unwrapped. If it increases however it may be  cause for concern. But raw beef or lamb in the joint can often smell of something which isn't necessarily particularly nice, without it being worrying. It will tend to cook with more flavour.
