Design and Aesthetics

Ease of Folding
The Bugaboo Dragonfly, Silver Cross Dune, and Cybex Mios 3 all feature a one-handed fold. While the Silver Cross Dune and Cybex Mios 3 can only fold in one piece when in either of the two seat modes, the Bugaboo Dragonfly can fold in any of the three configurations. That means you can fold the stroller as a single piece with the bassinet or when the seat is in parent or world-facing modes. This can be a game-changer when you have your hands full or need a quick and convenient fold. While the UPPAbaby Cruz V2 offers a smooth two-handed fold, it's important to note that it can only fold as a single piece when the seat is in forward-facing mode. Consider how important one-handed folding and flexibility in folding configurations are to your daily routine.

The portability of your carriage is going to be a big factor when deciding which one will fit best with your lifestyle. The Bugaboo Dragonfly takes the lead with its super light 17.4 lbs. The Dragonfly is designed to be lightweight and compact, making it easy to maneuver in various settings. Its streamlined frame is ideal for navigating through crowded spaces and narrow pathways. The UPPAbaby Cruz V2 is next, standing at 21.5 lbs., offering a slightly sturdier feel when pushing. The Cybex Mios 3 weighs 22.5 lbs. The light and compact design makes it perfect for city life. And lastly, the Silver Cross Dune, weighing 25.3 lbs., is the heaviest of the bunch. Consider these weights, as this can really impact which stroller will be the best fit for you and your family’s lifestyle.
