The Bugaboo Donkey 5 - what's new?

The new breezy bassinet will regulate your baby's temperature, whilst the insulated padded panels offer superior protection from the elements. For twins, it also allows them to connect with each other from their very first adventures together.
2. Improved ease of folding and unfolding
The Bugaboo Donkey 5 features memory buttons enabling the bassinet and seat to be removed with just one hand.

The updated fabrics are water repellent, durable and soft to touch, making them
super comfortable for your baby. They are easy to clean and suitable to machine wash.
Why we love it
The Bugaboo Donkey has long been heralded as the most versatile and stylish double pram on the market.
It’s the only side-by-side double stroller that can grow as your family does, meaning that it can be bought as a single and later converted to a double.
If purchasing the Mono option, you will receive one seat-frame but both the carrycot and the seat fabric. This means that it is suitable for single use but later an extension set can be purchased, which will convert the pram into the Duo version.
If you need a double right away, the Duo option is perfect for you. It comes with 2 seat-frames, 1 carrycot fabric and 2 seat-fabrics. This means that either the carrycot and seat can be used at the same time or the 2 seats. The carrycot is suitable from birth until 6 months so when baby is ready, they can transition into the seat and join their elder sibling.
The third option for the Bugaboo Donkey is the Twin. This comes with everything the Duo version does but with an extra carrycot, meaning that the pram has 2 of everything.
One of the most popular questions we get asked is ‘will the Donkey fit through my door?’. The answer is – it depends on the size of your door! In Duo/Twin mode, the Donkey measures 74cm in width. The width of standard sized door in the UK is 76.2cm.
Apart from the option to choose between a single and double stroller, there are a few other things which make this pram stand out for us:
- the seats can be individually configured in world or parent-facing mode
- the fabrics are fully removable and washable
- the Donkey is compatible with all of Bugaboo’s accessory range
Overall, the quality and the build of the Bugaboo Donkey is second to none. There is no other double stroller on the market, which comes close to its premium design.
