Mountain Buggy: Road Test

Style, Ease and Comfort in one Gorgeous Buggy

Looking for a new buggy mamas? We’ve got our eye on the latest one to hit the Middle East – the Mountain Buggy Urban Jungle Luxury Collection of strollers have finally arrived – woohoo!  Having been a worldwide success, selling out within days in many locations globally post launch, we think they’ll get snapped up here pretty fast too so just had to find out more – and what better way than by asking mummy blogger DubaiMother to road test the gorgeous ‘Nautical’ design with her 1 year old Adam, and this is what she said:

Having the right stroller for your little is absolutely important. How do you pick one though? I recently had the pleasure of testing out the MountainBuggy Urban Jungle Luxury Collection thanks to Sassy Mama Dubai and Babysouk. At first glance I fell in love with it. The colours were beautiful and let’s not forget that beautiful brown leather!

We didn’t waste any time and straight away took it to the park. Adam absolutely loved it! You could tell he was really comfortable and enjoying the smooth ride – such a breeze, I loved how easily it was to steer around. The wheels made me feel like I was “driving” a land cruiser! We made sure we took it everywhere, Emirates Mall, Dubai Mall, Spinneys for some grocery shopping (and a little buggy ‘showing off’). We also took it to this sandy patch near our house to see how it performed and it was fantastic!

After a few days with the Mountain Buggy Urban Jungle Luxury Collection stroller, I have a lot to say about it – so here are my main points…

Why We Loved It:

• The basket at the bottom for shopping bags takes upto 10kgs!! (Heaven!)
• Classy leather handle and belt
• Perfect for different platforms; be it desert, grass or plain tarmac
• So easy to move around
• Excellent design
• It’s compatible to a variety of car seats
• Brake at the handlebar
• Love the little flap at the top that allows you to see your little one without having to bend in-front
• The navy blue & white interior
• Comes with a diaper bag & changing mat
• Easy to fold and unfold

We absolutely loved having it for a few days and enjoyed so much. Such a shame it had to go! We will definitely miss you Mountain Buggy Urban Jungle Luxury Collection!
