Bugaboo Comfort Transport Bag

Product Information

The stroller is designed for children up to 22kg/around 4 years which is bigger than most in the travel stroller category. My petite 6 year old (21.5kg) has ridden in it on some longer days and it is still easy to push and tall enough in the seat to handle her. At 5 foot 9, I often struggle with stroller’s that don’t have a height adjustable bar, but I find the Butterfly is still comfortable to push. The Bugaboo Butterfly basket Basket We performed pinch testing by inserting a pencil in hinges and other places pinches were likely to happen. The Bugaboo scored 8 out of 10 in our pinch test. We found a few places where pinches could occur during the fold process. We haven’t had problems with the quality of the brake. Sometimes the brake doesn’t immediately engage when we press it the first time. There is a very small amount of give where the handle attaches to the frame. Generally, the handle feels rigid and secure even while pushing older, bigger children. Faux leather handle The Butterfly is truly a one-hand fold whereas the YoYo2 requires two hands to start the folding process and is a bit complicated even after that.

Genesis bags are ergonomically designed to be carried. With good shoulder straps and/or carry handles we have tried to make our bags as easy to carry as possible. They are NOT designed to be dragged along as this can cause scuff marks and/or damage. If carried as designed your bag will last way beyond pushchair/car seat travel days and become a nice sized bag for days on the beach. TOP TIP. Make the baggage handler's job easier by NOT overloading the bag. We know they are spacious bags but don’t take the sink along with you! These bags are ergonomically designed to be carried.

Both strollers have excellent folding operation and maneuverability, although the Joolz Aer scored slightly higher in both categories. See our full Joolz Aer Stroller Review. Once folded, the stroller is a very compact 45 x 23 x 54 cm which means it fits in most car boots (we have a Ford S Max 7 seater and with all 7 seats up I could fit in several folded Butterflys). Our bags are designed differently to others and are manufactured with baggage handling systems in mind. We only use industrial zips and fittings and all straps have breaking strains well in excess of weights of prams, contents (or anything likely to be lifted by a human being).

NOT JUST TO PREVENT DAMAGE! The other main function of a travel bag is to keep the contents clean and dry. Aircraft holds are dirty places that get wet due to condensation during the flight. Who wants to put their baby in a dirty and wet pram at the other end? To open the Butterfly you press the white release button on the handle and squeeze the fold button while pulling the stroller upward to an unfolded position.

All stroller manufacturers recommend that you keep children several feet away when folding and unfolding strollers. There is a safety strap attached to the handle you can use to keep the stroller from running away from you, but is really only necessary on hills.PADDED VERSIONS: The padded versions have upholstery-grade padding inside and are lined in robust nylon. This padding and lining offer additional protection from both the bumps and scrapes of the baggage handling systems and from the elements helping to keep the contents dry and clean. The Joolz is 13.4 lbs vs the Butterfly’s 16.1 lbs. The Joolz Aerfolds to just 1.8 cubic feet which is a tad smaller than the Butterfly’s 2.0 cubic feet. Neither are guaranteed to be accepted by airlines to fit in the overhead bin, although both qualify for some airlines.
