Stroller dilemma...need your help!

I have decided for the longest time that I wanted the Bugaboo Frog stroller which my mom is getting for me, but lately I have been thinking about the Rock Star Baby stroller...

They're pretty similar, although the Rock Star Baby stroller is about 6lbs heavier and appx. $250 cheaper...

Need your help on deciding 2 things...first, should I go with the Bugaboo or the Rock Star Baby stroller, and two, if I go with the Bugaboo, should I go with the navy blue or the sand color stroller...

Thank you so much for your help! I'm so torn and undecisive!

I kinda like the Rock Star one personally. I don't know why, but I do.

But are you nervous about a light color?

Cause I've BTDT for so longChat Icon

Anyway, for DS, no, he isn't a puker or a spitter (yet anyway) but I am OCD and would go a little postal when it would get dirty. But I am nuts like thatChat Icon

I do like it though, I think it is pretty cool looking.

Re: Stroller dilemma...need your help!

I love both of the strollers...however I would probably go with the Bugaboo just because it's been out longer and has great reviews...I would also go with a darker color because it would drive me crazy to see a dirty carriage. The Rock Star is nice...I've seen it in person and it's impressive. Either way you will have one Hot stroller!

ETA: I think they have the Rock Star in darker colors

Me either. I'm sure you can spot clean it. The monogram is just so impressive on that color. If I saw you in the store I'd stop you to tell you how beautiful your stroller was....Chat Icon

Re: Stroller dilemma...need your help!

I like both, but I would probably go with the Bugaboo bc it's lighter. 6lbs is a lot in stroller weight.

I saw the grey one at Sukons and it was really light. The woman said the beige is just as light but beige, not grey.

I wouldn't worry about the weight, I lifted it collapsed with one hand and it was much lighter than I thought.

Re: Stroller dilemma...need your help!

Go with the lighter weight. I know it's already a lot of money for these and it would be great to save $250 but 6lbs will make a difference and I am sure you can get a lighter one and still like the looks of it.

Re: Stroller dilemma...need your help!

Are you going to be using the stroller alot for travel? The Bugaboo folds up into two pieces whereas the Rock Star folds into one piece....

Re: Stroller dilemma...need your help!

I would personally go with the lighter weight and darker color.

I looked into the rock star reviews. The light color gets dirty very quickly according to reviews and people were disappointed with the color. Just an FYI. You can check baby-gaga.com on their community forum.

I am not sure how "strong" you are but I looked at 30 Lbs strollers and realized I could not see myself hauling a stroller in the car back/trunk with anything heavier than 20 Lbs.

I do like the look of both of them. I would probably pick the RSB in black if I had to pick between both.

I wanted to add that I also have a light color stroller and have been using it for 13 months and there is not one mark on itChat Icon

If I saw someone with the Rock Star stroller I would def stop and look at it. It is gorgeous!!!

6lbs honestly from someone that is weak and has a bad back is not badChat Icon

For me, the Rockstar stroller hands down. I know you said you weren't buying, but $250 is a ton when it comes to stroller $$, and I wouldn't want to spend as much as a Bugaboo costs. And the 6lbs doesn't make or break me.

Go with the Blue Bug. Hot Hot Hot. The Bug fabric comes off and washes super easily.

The rock star stroller is UGLY compared to the Bug.

Re: Stroller dilemma...need your help!

I'd get the Bugaboo, if only b/c I think the Rock Star is unattractive (looks very flashy to me, not in a good way).
