Bugaboo Bee 6, An Impartial Review: Mechanics, Comfort, Use

In order to keep our recommendations up to date, we maintain a 'Buyer's Guide' (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 the guide (in addition to our 4-part video series on Choosing the Right Stroller for your Lifestyle, and other helpful content) on Patreon: / stroller-buyers-37953864

In this video we take a close look at the Bugaboo Bee6, explaining the advantages and disadvantages of its design in relation to comfort, functionality, engineering, longevity and optimal use.

Thanks for yet another thorough review! It’s really too bad that Bugaboo didn’t do a greater rework of the Bee, they kept two out of three main Bee-problems in my humble opinion: you can’t put/retrieve anything in/out of the basket through the back 9:28 (basically all I do, all day), and the wheels are too narrowly spaced so you can’t walk up or down the standardized made-for-stroller-stairs (at least not the Swedish ones, drove me mad). Glad they added the bumper bar but agree with you - about time.

I just tried out the bee and fox 5 as well as lynx, there wasn't a fox 3 although that is my intended target pram as it's on sale but all I gotta say is after trying so many prams, raising 3 babies more than 10 years ago and having a baby now, I'm really disappointed with most prams especially the bugaboo fox 5 Omg that things feels like I'm pushing a double pram around, the lynx felt much smoother and the bee just felt so nice to push around that for a minute I forgot it weighed 9.6kg and was going to buy it 😅

Hello Thanks again! Your review is amazing as usual! If I’m looking for a smaller size stroller that would still give a child more comfort and daily wear then travel strollers do. Bee seems to fit that description. ( This is manly for city life). Just wondering what are other strollers that you would put in to this category and that compare well with the bee. Thanks

Hello! Your review soooo informative...thank you much much much

[@libraqueen920]

I’m stuck between this, the bugaboo ant and the Cybex EZ twist🤦🏾‍♀️ helllllp.. right now my 9m old have the doona and she’s out growing it so fast, she don’t like sitting in it at all

Hi. I can't unfold the bugaboo 6. The basket underneath doesn't stay right and the footrest.

[@natashaknott186]

So I watched a video on the bee5 and they seem pretty much the same? So which I’m better off getting? As a daytoday pushchair? Child is 8month

[@fionabhak2386]

I'm eyeing on the Bugaboo butterfly

[@mariahwright6173]

Whats the max seat hight please

[@elimu.82]

Thanks for the video! Are you planning a review for the joolz hub+ too? How would you compare it with the bee6?

[@BarnevognverkstedNo]

Yes, it's definitely on the list :) And we'll definitely be comparing it to the the Bee6.

[@veronicanailpolish7840]

I have a new Chicco Infant 30 car seat. Will the adapters on their site work with this stroller?

[@omram566]

The word 'Niche'... pronounced 'neesh' . Not 'nitch'

[@giogattino]

Can bee 6 wheels mounted on bee 5 chassis?

[@BarnevognverkstedNo]

Yes, at least if you replace the wheels within the forks as they are the same dimensions. I haven't tried just swapping the forks, but it might work too. :)

[@giogattino]

@@BarnevognverkstedNo do you think both front and rear bee 6 wheels will be compatible with a bee 5 chassis? Front parts can only be found with the suspension at a much higher cost than rear ones...

[@giogattino]

@@BarnevognverkstedNo Hi! I tried larger bee 6 wheels in front and they work! Unfortunately I have to keep the smaller bee 5 wheels on the back otherwise brake system doesn't work. Do you think this is a good setup or you see any problem in having larger wheels in front and smaller in the back?

[@embee776]

Got the bee 6 and hate it, it’s outdated design, hard to fold hard to open, belly bar is very small and too high up for a shorter or younger child, the mechanism are finicky and i wish i can give it back. Maybe I’ll try to sell it. The only thing that is good is that you can have the child face you and it’s great to push.

[@BarnevognverkstedNo]

I'm so sorry you had a bad experience. At the same time I've been shouting this out into the void for years, and I feel vindicated by your comment - the Bee is definitely an outdated design and needs to go away. It has no place on a market that also has models like the Hub+, the Mios, and the Triv Next. :)
