Bugaboo Buffalo: Tribute to our Favorite Stroller of all Time. Mechanics, Comfort, Use

[@BarnevognverkstedNo]

In order to keep our recommendations up to date, we maintain a 'Buyer's Guide' on our Patreon page (with a wide spectrum of models, and a lot of technical and lifestyle-related information). Organizing our recommendations this way makes it easier to include good models that we haven't made review-videos for yet, as well as to remove models which have developed unforeseen wear-issues over time, or which have been weakened by the manufacturer in their current iterations. You can access it here: www.patreon.com/posts/stroller-buyers-37953864 As an independent, consumer-oriented reviewer, we have fewer revenue-streams open to us than the majority of other channels out there, so we do ask for a small donation for access to this guide (as well as a free consultation and access to our other Patreon content). Thanks so much for your help!

I could get one used but have the fox 5 in mind. Could you do a side by side comparison, please?

[@minsinreserveminsinreserve]

I just bought a used Buffalo. Very happy with it! I think the Buffalo looks prettier and the quality is better compared to Fox. I feel I got great value for money, and If i feel like switching to another stroller at a later point its a not much money lost:)

I tried this for a week (borrowed from a friend). After using a city elite it did not feel as good over terrain. I was on a trail with rocks and roots and struggled quite a bit with the Buffalo. The city elite just glides over it. I thought I might want a four wheel swivel stroller to have a parent facing option but I think Ill stick to three wheels (or possibly four wheel fixed wheels)

I've tried finding out why this one is so loose, and wobbly with the bag for the baby. I see this one in the video is also wobbly, and so it seems it is as designed as I thought. But good to get that checked, because it feels weird that the bag should have so much leeway up and down - even if it only has a single connector in the middle.

Would love to hear how this compares to the Uppababy Vista (if only planning on using 1 child). We live in a city and don't expect to be taking in and out of car more than a couple times a week (at most). Want smooth ride for long walks, in snow, all terrain, etc. I notice the Buffalo doesn't offer a suspension while the Vista does, is this accurate and does it matter? Thanks.

[@larissanogueira4142]

Do you think getting a gently used Buffalo model from 2018 is worth it? (At 230 dollars) Other option would be buying the fox. We have a bugaboo donkey and looks like I can use the donkey wheels on it and same for sun canopy. We live in the suburbs but I usually take the kids out for hikes daily so we need a a stroller that can handle rocks and uneven pavement

[@kristin5977]

I bought a used 2013 Buffalo. Someone on Facebook is selling a new replacement seat fabric, no year given. Will all years of the Buffalo fit the same seat?

[@carboogyful]

How do you find using a used one? I found a 2015 model im thinking of buying ..would you recommend?

[@anutoroi]

How is this stroller in the winter in snow? Our stroke xplorys front wheels locks in snow so you have to PUSH IT in snow😢

[@teresacaceresvillarroya3793]

Is the structure compatible with Donkey 1’s chair/bassinet?

[@VICTORYShihTzu]

You can Buffalo fabric on the Donkey, but not Donkey fabric on the Buffalo.

[@sarasimon]

Would you still recommend buying a second hand Buffalo now that it’s been discontinued?

[@aneesahblanchette2181]

100% I’m currently taking mine out of storage for my new baby! Best buggy

[@carboogyful]

im looking at one now too lol if its better than the current fox 5 and alot cheaper then im adding it to my watch list 😂

[@imaclover1428]

You should do a Buffalo vs. NXT90 video.

[@thevdende]

Hi, we are looking at a buffalo based on your reviews, however, the one for sale comes without a bassinet. We have a friend with a cameleon who doesn't use the bassinet anymore so we were wondering if you know if the bassinets are interchangeable between bugaboo strollers?

[@BarnevognverkstedNo]

They're not meant to be, but it does work. :)

[@thevdende]

@@BarnevognverkstedNo thanks so much for replying!

[@kanajula]

Can the canopy be used from a different model?

[@thevdende]

@@kanajula I think the chameleon/donkey work

but no suspension?

[@BarnevognverkstedNo]

Bugaboo suspension is generally in the central bar. The downside of this is increased wearon the folding mechs over time, for a lot of their models, at least, but the Buffalo is a powerhouse of a stroller, and the central suspension works just fine.

[@kakefyll]

Yeah I feel it makes it a bit stiff. Emmaljunga has better suspension imo

[@MsKaterinaKo]

Do you think the Fox compares at all to this in terms of quality? :)

[@BarnevognverkstedNo]

The Fox is the best model that Bugaboo currently offers for 1 child, it is a model that I often recommend, and it does occupy a unique place on the current market for many reasons - but no, I think both in terms of build quality and driving performance that the Buffalo is much better.

[@ryanbrousson6979]

Looking at getting a Buffalo, does any one have an idea if the Buffalo works with the Clek Liing car seat (with appropriate adapters)? The Liing works with the Fox (1-3) but haven't been able to find out if it works with the Buffalo.

[@acheng3912]

Yes it does! I bought a Buffalo used and it came with the adaptors. But I use a Clek Liing with it and it def works!
