Tamara tested the Bugaboo Ant firsthand and shares her expert insights in this detailed review.
As a mom-to-be living in the heart of Amsterdam, I was thrilled to test the new Bugaboo Ant for Moms at Work. Designed specifically for city life, this stroller prioritizes safety, portability, and ease—perfect for navigating bustling streets and planning post-pandemic travels with my little one.

The Bugaboo Ant strikes an ideal balance with its compact, sturdy build, making it a breeze to maneuver through crowded Amsterdam canals and busy sidewalks. Its small wheels enhance agility, while the lightweight frame fits effortlessly on public transport—saving space for fellow commuters amid high city parking costs.
Switch effortlessly between forward-facing for curious exploration and parent-facing for naps or bonding. The one-handed recline and adjustable backrest adapt as your child grows, ensuring comfort on sunny terrace outings or quick boat trips. The accessible under-basket holds essentials, though it's best for light errands rather than full grocery hauls.
Style matters, and the Bugaboo Ant delivers with its streamlined, modern aesthetic that complements urban lifestyles. Far from bulky, its elegant lines make it a joy to push without encroaching on pedestrian space.
This stroller comes thoughtfully equipped. The rain hood shields your baby from showers (leaving you to brave the wet if needed 😉). For sunny days, the sun hood features an extra-large visor with a viewing window made from premium fabrics, keeping UV rays at bay without constant adjustments.
The tailor-made organizer bag clips to the handlebar, stowing phone, wallet, and makeup essentials—no extra bag required. Folding is simple and compact, and the travel cover protects it for hand luggage on flights, trolley-style for ultimate portability.
For city dwellers like me, the Bugaboo Ant is a game-changer: beautifully designed, highly maneuverable, and accessorized perfectly with sun/rain covers, organizer bag, and travel protection. It's ideal for urban walks and trips but less suited for rough terrain like forests or beaches—opt for all-terrain models there.
With years of Bugaboo experience in our family, I recommend trying one in-store. For online purchases, check trusted retailers.
