The Bugaboo Cameleon is one of the most expensive strollers you can buy, and critics say that although it's certainly a good stroller, it's probably not worth a $600 price premium over competing strollers based purely on functionality. The Bugaboo Cameleon is a trendy fashion statement as much as anything, although parents are positive about it overall. On the plus side, parents say the Bugaboo Cameleon almost never breaks down, and it has a large, plush seat with a full recline and bassinette feature. Users say this stroller is smooth on all surfaces, with an adjustable suspension and one-handed steering. Unlike most all-terrain strollers, the Bugaboo Cameleon has four wheels, with the larger ones in front. The only aspect of this stroller that receives complaint (besides price) is the tricky folding mechanism, which gives even some experts trouble. Still, some reviewers do note that a $900 stroller may be overkill. The top-rated all-terrain stroller in a somewhat more moderate price range is the BOB Revolution (*est. $390).
StrollersAndPrams.com evaluates the Bugaboo Cameleon in depth, providing parent and editor reviews, as well as many pictures to give visitors a clear idea of seating, folding, storage and more. Another site, Baby-Gaga.com, also provides a detailed look at the Bugaboo Cameleon. This stroller is also evaluated in "Baby Bargains," an excellent baby-gear review book by Denise and Alan Fields. Epinions.com and JoggingStroller.com also have a good selection of owner-written reviews.

Authors Denise and Alan Fields cover the Bugaboo Cameleon in their comprehensive section on baby strollers. While they agree that Bugaboo makes excellent strollers, they recommend it only if "someone else is paying for it."
