What Makes the Bugaboo Donkey 5 Mono Special
The Donkey is Bugaboo’s stroller for families who need plenty of storage space and want to stay flexible. In the Mono configuration, its 60 cm width allows it to fit through standard doors. In the first few months, your baby lies in the carrycot with a PureBreeze™ mattress, which ensures good air circulation. Later on, the reversible sport seat takes over—you can mount it facing you or facing forward.
There’s a large shopping basket under the seat unit and an additional storage bag on the side. Large, puncture-proof wheels and suspension make the Donkey a pleasure to push, even on cobblestones and forest trails. If you’re looking for a narrower stroller for buses and trains, check out the Bugaboo Dragonfly.
