DOES NOT WORK WELL W/ PEG PEREGGO VIAGGIO
Date of Review: Nov 28, 2006
The Bottom Line: Wouldnt buy it unless you dont have a car and therefore doint need to use a car seat.
Great stroller. A little awkward to figure out initially but once a little time spent on it it makes sense. My wife and I are really disappointed though as we already had bought a Peg Perego Viaggio baby seat and the marketing material from Bugaboo said the PPV baby seat could be used with the Cameleon if special adapters where purchased. We went ahead and bought those, so my wife got the stroller and the car seat that she wanted. Great. Wrong!!!!
First time we wanted to take the baby out in the car (to the park for a walk), we figured out how to use stoller base, adapters and PPV seat together. It became clear VERY quickly that although the PPV seat will go onto the stoller frame, its an awkward and tricky thing to do with the baby not in the seat and virtually impossible to do with the baby in the seat. In any event, the recommendation from Bugaboo people themselves in the adapter instructions is that you ALWAYS remove the baby from the seat if moving from car to stroller or vice versa.
I was under the impression that the WHOLE POINT of the interactivity of these 2 products was that the baby could be transferred from stroller to car and vice versa WITHOUT being woken/disturbed. This is wholly impossible.
Both my wife and I feel like we have been mis-sold.
