Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Q1: How do I fold the Bugaboo Kangaroo?

You can fold the Bugaboo Kangaroo exactly like you fold the Bugaboo Fox 5.

1. Activate the brake and lock the front wheels in the self-standing position.
2. Press the handlebar adjustment button (the bigger white button on the handlebar) and bring the handlebar to the lowest position (the last stripe on the inside of the aluminum tube).
3. Press both white buttons on the handlebar and push the handlebar in the direction of the tubes, so that the arrow on the inside of the aluminum tube is hidden.
4. Fold the stroller by pushing the handlebar down to the floor.
5. Lift up the center tube and bring the front and rear wheels together.
6. Put the stroller in the self-standing position. You're done.

Q2: How do I convert the Bugaboo Kangaroo from single to double Stroller? 

You can easily configure the Bugaboo Kangaroo to carry two children in a few easy steps:

1. Check that the stroller is in single mode (one-child indicator on the chassis is green).
2. Lift the clips to loosen the seat lugs.
3. Lift and reverse the seat lug bar.
4. Place the seat lug bar back into place.
5. Close the clips. The chassis is now in double mode (one-child indicator is red, two-children indicator is green).

Q3: How many different Seat configuration does the Bugaboo Kangaroo Have? 

When combined with dedicated accessories (all sold separately), the Bugaboo Kangaroo offers more than 20 versatile configurations in total. You can choose the perfect set-up for your family. If you only have one child, stroll with only a seat or a bassinet as you would with a single stroller. The seat is reversible and lets your toddler face you or face the world.

If you are strolling with two children, switch the Bugaboo Kangaroo to double mode by adding a Bugaboo sibling seat. Choose between riding with a bassinet and a seat, or two seats together. Both seats are reversible to offer options for a set-up that works for you. If you want to keep your newborn close by, add a Bugaboo Kangaroo upper newborn adapter to place the bassinet in the upper position. This way, your toddler can also take in the views from the front seat. Additionally, you can replace the bassinet with a compatible car seat if you want to transition your baby seamlessly from stroller to car and vice versa.

And if you want to bring a third kid along, add the Bugaboo comfort wheeled board to let them ride with the whole family.
A comprehensive list of recommended set-ups can be found in the Bugaboo Kangaroo's user guide.

Q4: What is the weight capacity of the Bugaboo Kangaroo?

The Bugaboo Kangaroo's bassinet carries your newborn from birth up to a maximum weight of 20 lbs (9 kg). The main seat can carry a toddler until they reach 50 lbs (22 kg), and the sibling seat carries up to 40 lbs (18 kg). The extra-large underseat basket's maximum load is 28.6 lbs (13 kg) to hold everything you need.

Q5: Are the main seat and the sibling Seat the same?

No, the sibling seat is a slightly smaller seat meant for a second child. It can carry up to 40 lbs (18 kg) when in the lower position, while the main seat is bigger and carries up to 50 lbs (22 kg). The sibling seat can be placed in the upper or lower position; this depends on whether you use it with the bassinet or the seat. The main seat, on the other hand, should only be used in the upper position.
