  • Self-standing one-piece fold
  • Large puncture-proof wheels

Description

Offering multiple configurations, both as a single and double stroller, the Bugaboo Donkey 5 is versatile, easy to push and ready to grow with your family.

Easily switch between three unique set-ups (Mono, Duo or Twin) for either one child, two siblings of different ages, or twins. In Mono mode, it’s as wide as a single stroller. In Duo and Twin modes,the side-by-side geometry promotes bonding between siblings.

From day one, you can use it with the bassinet (or pair it with a compatible infant car seat, sold separately), and transition to the toddler seat as your child grows. For a little more clarification: when baby outgrows the bassinet (either 20 lbs or developmentally when they’re pushing up or rolling over), simply switch out the bassinet fabric to the seat fabric for use up to 50 lbs. This is all included with the Mono.

If you’re thinking of expanding your family, you can easily convert it from a single to double stroller with the Donkey5 Duo Extension Set Complete (sold separately) for kiddos of two ages. For twins, you can purchase a separate Bassinet with the Twin Bassinet Fabric Complete (also sold separately).

No matter which configuration you choose, the Bugaboo Donkey 5 is small enough to fit through standard doorways, and designed to hold up to 50 lbs per seat. It’s also easy to maneuver. You can steer it with one hand and go up sidewalk curbs even when it’s fully loaded.

When using it in the Mono configuration, it comes with an expandable side-luggage basket with 22 lbs capacity. The side-luggage basket also comes with an integrated zipper at the top, increasing its capacity as it transforms into a large tote bag that keeps essentials or groceries protected.

The updated fold/unfold of the Bugaboo Donkey 5 lets you start and stop adventures with ease. You can fold the Donkey 5 as a one-piece self-standing fold or as a two-piece compact fold.

The bassinet design has also been improved for optimal airflow and breathability. The panel closes tightly to keep out the elements, meaning more comfort no matter the weather. Baby stays cozy in colder seasons and gets optimal ventilation during warm days.

The large, puncture-proof wheels are made of a special EVA foam, making them last longer and ensuring a bump-free ride for your baby. Whether you’re using it with one or two kids, they enjoy the same level of comfort on every ride.

It features durable soft-to-the-touch fabrics that are water repellent and machine washable.

The side-by-side geometry of the Bugaboo Donkey 5 Duo is great for a sibling connection, especially when they’re sitting facing each other. And with a new higher bassinet and a seat position, they’re closer to you than ever.

A great stroller but not the one for our family
This review was collected as part of a promotion
I currently own two other strollers in addition to the Donkey 5 Mono, which I received through the Stellar Product Testing Panel. I also have the Butterfly, which I love, and a front-to-back double stroller. The Donkey 5 has a sleek, luxurious design. The adjustable handlebar fits me very well at 5'8" and would fit a person over 6' very easily. The way in which it extends outward prevents accidentally kicking the stroller. I find the durable seat material easy to clean, though it’s not

Love this adaptable stroller with a lot of storage space!
This review was collected as part of a promotion
I love our new stroller! 10/10 for safety in my opinion. My child is secure and the wrist strap comforts me that I wont lose control of the stroller. Easy to push and easy to convert from infant to child or forward facing to backwards facing. It even has a bag, which I just cant get enough of- all strollers should have this!

This stroller is not for you if you are looking for something compact to easily put into your trunk. It is large and doesnt fold up to be tiny for the trunk. But for

Perfect for a growing family
This review was collected as part of a promotion
This stroller is really innovative, and perfect for families that plan to grow, even if you only have one kiddo currently. I'm a mom of 6 and have been through more strollers than I can count as I'm a bit of a "baby product junkie". I see new baby technology and I want to try it! My oldest was born in 2011 and the changes in strollers over the past 13 years has been awesome to watch and experience, with this Bugaboo being one of the cooler ones I've tried. Previously I have defaulted to the

Cadillac of Strollers
This review was collected as part of a promotion
I was selected to review this product as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel. The first thing I loved about this product right away was how smoothly it rolled. The stroller is lightweight but also manages to feel durable, and the extra storage is a nice bonus. Switching up which way our child faces comes in handy. We face him toward us during trips to the store or just normal walks, but he loved being switched to front facing so he could see all of the Christmas lights. The only things we

The Only Stroller You'll Ever Need!
This review was collected as part of a promotion
The Bugaboo Donkey5 Mono Complete Stroller is a must have for parents with two kids, or for parents just starting out but planning to have more kids. I received this stroller as a part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel, and I only wish I had received it with my first child because this is really the only stroller I would ever need.

I can use it as a mono stroller and put my baby in the bassinet, and fit my large diaper bag in the side luggage basket or I can expand it out and swap the

Excellent Stroller, especially for the city!
This review was collected as part of a promotion
I was given this stroller to try as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel. I absolutely loved it! It is the perfect urban stroller. The fact that it can easily convert into a double stroller is huge. I found the side luggage basket fantastic for being out and about in the city and needing to grab groceries or run any other errands. It meant I wasn’t trying to squish things in next to a bulky diaper bag.

I found the stroller easy to maneuver, and it had the same glide no matter how

Bugaboo Convertible Double Stroller
This review was collected as part of a promotion
I received the Bugaboo Donkey5 Mono Complete Stroller through the Stellar Product Testing Panel. I was completely elated to have the opportunity to try this stroller out after reading about it! The assembly was super user friendly and one small but fantastic feature was the little indentions on the bars for each strap to sit! Once I finished putting it together, we took it on our first adventure. The stroller was so easy to maneuver with just one hand and was such an incredibly smooth ride.

Best luxury stroller for urban lifestyle
This review was collected as part of a promotion
As parents who already owned a luxury stroller, we were unsure how much better another high-end option could be. But after using the Bugaboo Donkey 5 Mono Complete Stroller, we can confidently say it has exceeded our expectations in nearly every way. The build quality of the Bugaboo Donkey 5 is outstanding. It feels sturdy and durable without being overly heavy, it glides smoothly in all directions, and the ability to expand from a single to a double stroller is a game-changer for growing

Pushes like a dream with storage galore!
This review was collected as part of a promotion
My husband and I were beyond excited to receive the Bugaboo Donkey5 Mono stroller from the Stellar Product Testing Panel.

I have always been a fan of Bugaboo products, and the Donkey surely lives up to the hype. The stroller glides like a dream across many different terrains even when packed to the nines. We have taken the stroller to the park, Disneyland, mall, and of course for many walks around the block - it has now become our go to!

The textiles used from the fabric and

Smooth & Stylish!
This review was collected as part of a promotion
I was given this stroller to try as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel and what a treat it is! The stroller is very sleek and stylish, plus it handles amazingly! It glides effortlessly and handles our uneven sidewalks, off-roading, and traversing curbs easily. It is a little wider than your average stroller but that provides some extra stability and it has an insane turning radius, which makes navigating tight spaces a breeze. My daughter is 16 months and loves facing outward so she can
