I just found your channel and I loveeee it! I love your honesty. Right when you said it doesn’t have a peek a boo window I was like “I’m out that’s not the stroller we need!” 😂😅 I have a very tall two year old and I’m searching for one that meets all his and my requirements. Thank you for your videos!!! ❤
As someone with a fellow tall toddler thank you 😅 your review of the nuna made me not purchase bc of what u said with ur tall kid getting scrunched up. Im definitely purchasing this stroller for our travelling lifestyle.
My father used to like to take my daughter with him on walks. I allowed it as long as he agreed to use the wrist strap. He promised to use it, but was being deceptive. My step mother fell, and in a panic he went to pick her up. He thought he put the break on the stroller, but didn’t actually have it activated. My 18 month old daughter rolled into a pond. Trapped in the stroller, and completely submerged. She held her breath, and came through unscathed, though very cold. I always use a wrist strap. You never know when you are going to be distracted, or lose consciousness. Fate doesn’t care if you’re using your travel stroller,or your jogging stroller.
My wife and I have the Donkey and Lynx and absolutely love the smoothness and comfort of the wheels and ride on Bugaboos. You mentioned you werent impressed by the wheels on the butterfly. How does the butterfly compare to other premium compact strollers in terms of bumpiness and smoothness? We felt like we could feel the bumps on a flat surface with the Colungo Compact stroller. Thank you in advance.
This is on my list to buy and try out. I think there are pros and cons to both like all stroller. The main thing I don't like at first glance is how you have to buy everything separately on the Aer+. It does look like a really nice stroller. Hopefully we can get a review for everyone soon!
Thanks you for the your amazing in-depth review. I have a couple of queries about it regarding using it for new born babies. This only comes with car seat adapter with which you can attach any of the Nuna Pipa or lite or air or urbn for a newborn. But most car seats aren’t recommended to be used for more than 2 hrs for new borns due to its semi-upright position (as it may strain on the baby’s still-developing spine or chance of restricted air-flow to the baby’s lungs can increase if a baby falls asleep with their head flopped forward). So what options are there for bassist or pram with butterfly for new borns ?
Sadly you would need another stroller if using regularly with a new baby. Check out my review of the Joolz Aer+ because you can do a bassinet with that one.
Great video! Super helpful! Have you tried the Cybex Cloud Z/T car seat? Seems like that car seat can recline when attached to the stroller so that new born babies can stay in there for an extended period of time. Curious to know your opinion!
That's a great point! I love the new trend of car seats that recline happening in Europe and am excited to see it make its way to the US. Definitely something that could help in these situations. They still are not entirely flat, so a bassinet or full flat recline will always be better.
Yes - I am so sorry I missed this. I think you ended up messaging me on Insta, but there are two white buttons on the inside that tip side to side to release it. One side is always easier than the other, so I try and find that one and then I can visually see it for the harder side. I hope this helps!
Its okay. Better than the YoYo2 but not as good as some. I would say it's okay and the seat back is nice and tall for toddlers. You should also look at the Aer+, I have been pretty happy with that one seat back as well. It's similar to the Butterfly. I will hopefully have a video soon.
It sadly did get some scratches, but honestly that happens with a lot of strollers and wagons. They take a beating, so it depends on how much it bothers you. There are a lot of issues with the seat fabric, but I have seen they will replace it if it becomes an issue. You may want to look at the Joolz Aer as an alternative. I like the fabric on that stroller a little bit more.
It's okay on the fold. Honestly I am pregnant now and I find I don't really struggle with compact strollers, but the wagons and doubles are what get me.
I’ve just sold my Redsbaby Skip (original, I’m in Australia and it’s an Australian brand) to buy the Butterfly because my son outgrew the backrest. But if you’re buying it for a baby, younger toddler I 100% recommend the Skip as a pram in general. We had ours for 4 years and it is top quality and has tons of accessories. It pushes beautifully and held up very well. Also, one of the most impressive things on it is it’s hood. I’ve never seen one come down that far and with the net, it hooks to the bottom of the seat for 100% sun protection and a great napping spot.
I have not used the Minu V2 yet but do have experience in the older version. Both the butterfly and the Minu are well made strollers. Minu V2 does not fit in the overhead bin. Is that something you are wanting?
The overhead thing isn’t important to me! Some reviews online say the butterfly tips onto its side wheels when on any type of hill, because it’s back wheels are narrower than the front! We went to the store yesterday to try it and going around the corners of the aisles it really did tip a bit 😬you’d have to be conscious of it and correct it. I want my baby to be safe obviously lol but the butterfly is so pretty compared to the Minu! Did you notice any sort of tipping when pushing it around??
@@samanthahalpin8640 oh dear! I have not experienced that….Even when using the car seat adapters (though I did feel like the stroller was longer than I like). I did try and tip it at one point to test it and I had to really put some force in it. 🤷🏻♀️
It’s not a full flat recline, but it’s the same as most of its competitors. I would say the Ergobaby Metro has the best recline in this category for naps since it is almost flat. But the Butterfly should be sufficient for most babies and young toddlers.
This was so thorough and helpful. I appreciate the comparison of the same stroller with a toddler and an infant.
I’m so glad this is helpful! 🙌🏼
Thank you for showing us how the stroller looks folded down with the car seat adapter still on. Very helpful!
I’m so glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching :)

Omg that’s terrifying!! Hope baby girl is doing ok!

the details about the wheels on fold is on point. I never considered this fact.
Yea! I am so happy it was helpful.
thanks for your honest review! i purchased one. been looking for different strollers. thanks for your help
Glad it was helpful!
Hello, I love your video. Thank you! Do you have Joolz Aer+? I'm torn between Joolz Aer+ and Bugaboo Butterfly.
Same and also babyzen yoyo🤣😂
This is on my list to buy and try out. I think there are pros and cons to both like all stroller. The main thing I don't like at first glance is how you have to buy everything separately on the Aer+. It does look like a really nice stroller. Hopefully we can get a review for everyone soon!
Hello from Brazil! Thank you for this great rewiew, it was very helpfull!

Thanks for the review. Is there any bassinet that can be attached to this stroller ?
No! Look at Joolz Aer+.
Its on sale today for Prime Day: rstyle.me/+qDf3lEwwz_xUTOVKHDcwKw
Thanks for these reviews! Could you analyse the Mast M2 vs Yoyo?
They don't sell the M2 in the US sadly. :(
If you had to pick one travel stroller to use for day to day use but also Disney what would you pick? For a tall toddler
Butterfly for sure!
Hi
How do you find the upright position? Is it truly upright or has a slight incline?
Good question! It is better over the BabyZen Yoyo2, but still has a slight recline. My babies didn’t seem to have an issue with it.
Hi ! Do you know how to remove the number bar
Yes - I am so sorry I missed this. I think you ended up messaging me on Insta, but there are two white buttons on the inside that tip side to side to release it. One side is always easier than the other, so I try and find that one and then I can visually see it for the harder side. I hope this helps!
how is the back support?? i feel like toddlers are always so uncomfortable in travel strollers! i want something that sits upright.
Its okay. Better than the YoYo2 but not as good as some. I would say it's okay and the seat back is nice and tall for toddlers. You should also look at the Aer+, I have been pretty happy with that one seat back as well. It's similar to the Butterfly. I will hopefully have a video soon.
Hi! Do you have a video for the bugaboo butterfly accessories?
I don't yet! What do you want to see?
Does it get scratched easily? There are a lot of complaints on their website about scratches and fabric.
It sadly did get some scratches, but honestly that happens with a lot of strollers and wagons. They take a beating, so it depends on how much it bothers you. There are a lot of issues with the seat fabric, but I have seen they will replace it if it becomes an issue. You may want to look at the Joolz Aer as an alternative.

@@thestrollermomThank you for letting me know. This helps 😊
how hard would you say it is to fold this stroller while pregnant?
It's okay on the fold. Honestly I am pregnant now and I find I don't really struggle with compact strollers, but the wagons and doubles are what get me.
Does it scratch easily?
Ehhh yes and no...I would not say it's terrible.
Hi! What are the dimensions of the basket?
36.42” L x 17.72” W x 40.31” H and can hold up to 17.64 pounds.
I’m a tall parent and my baby is tall. lol what do I do ?? Haha
Are there any other travel strollers you're considering?
The Joolz Aer Plus...debating between that and the Butterfly
@@ItsHollyDayz yes! That one is high on my list to get next to review!
Baby Jogger City Tour 2
@@kimkelly5036 I will be doing this one sometime soon! The City Tour 2 was the first compact travel stroller I bought!
Curious how tall you are?
I’m 5’5”!
Do you have a video comparing this to reds baby skip2?
I have not heard of that stroller, but I will look into it.
I’ve just sold my Redsbaby Skip (original, I’m in Australia and it’s an Australian brand) to buy the Butterfly because my son outgrew the backrest. But if you’re buying it for a baby, younger toddler I 100% recommend the Skip as a pram in general. We had ours for 4 years and it is top quality and has tons of accessories.

Have you looked at the Uppababy Minu V2 before?! Torn between the Butterfly and that!!
I have not used the Minu V2 yet but do have experience in the older version. Both the butterfly and the Minu are well made strollers. Minu V2 does not fit in the overhead bin. Is that something you are wanting?
I should say all overhead bins…the Minu will fit in some!

@@thestrollermom thanks for getting back to me again you’re great ⭐️ and so fast too! Have a great day!!
Thank you for comparing it to a tall toddler!!!!
Always! :)
Many people complain about the seat not being ‘flat enough’ for a nap, how old your baby and does she sleep in it? 🩷🩷
It’s not a full flat recline, but it’s the same as most of its competitors. I would say the Ergobaby Metro has the best recline in this category for naps since it is almost flat. But the Butterfly should be sufficient for most babies and young toddlers.
We used the butterfly exclusively on a 3 week trip with our 7 month old and he slept in it every day for 2-3 naps a day! It was great.
