Bugaboo Cameleon Adapter for Select Peg Perego Car Seats Reviews

Customer Ratings:

We have Peg Perego Primo Viaggio Infant SIP car seat manufactured in 2009, and a Bugaboo Frog stroller. Now, I was confused as to which adapter I needed to purchase because there seemed to be several different Bugaboo-Peg Perego car seat adapters on Amazon, and according to some reviews, they didn't fit. I thought I would purchase this and see what happens. Although this is described as Bugaboo Cameleon car seat adaptor, it works for all bugaboos (cameleon, gecko and frog) and it does work on Peg Perego SIP infant seats manufactured after 2007, just like the product descrption reads. I was concerned intially because when I got this package, it says in the plastic wrap that it will work with Peg Perego Viaggio SIP only if the car seat is manufactured before March 2007. But when we did try it on our car seat made in 2009, it did fit perfectly. So I am not sure if there was an error in the package or not. I don't know if this works for Peg Perego manufactured before March 2007 since we have never tried it.

JUST BE CAREFULE WHEN ORDERING THESE BUGABOO PEG PEREGO CAR SEAT ADAPTERS THAT IF YOU HAVE A CAR SEAT NEWER THAN 2006 YOU NEED THE BRAND NEW ADAPTORS FROM BUGABOO,PEG PEREGO CHANGES THEIR CAR SEATS OFTEN AND THESE LITTLE TWEEKS MAKE THE OLD ADAPTERS UNUSABLE, SO BUGABOO IS ALWAYS UPDATING THE ADAPTERS. I ORDERED TWICE FROM SELLERS ON AMAZON WITH CLAIMS THAT THE ADAPTERS WERE NEW WHEN IN FACT THEY ARE NOT AND INDEED DID NOT FIT MY 2010 PEG PEREGO CAR SEAT. ITS VERY FRUSTRATING PUTTING BABY STUFF TOGETHER EVEN WHEN IT GOES WELL, WHEN TRYING TO FIT PARTS TOGETHER THAT THE SELLERS SAY ARE CORRECT WHEN THEY ARE NOT IS BEYOND TIME CONSUMING AND IRRITATING. IF YOU HAVE A BUGABOO, CONTACT BUGABOO DIRECTLY VIA THEIR WEBSITE AND THEY WILL EMAIL YOU A CORRECT PHOTO OF THE THE ADAPTERS NEEDED FOR YOUR PRAM AND CAR SEAT. SAVE TIME AND TRIPS TO THE POST OFFICE RETURNING UNUSABLE ADAPTERS BY CHECKING OUT THE CORRECT PARTS FIRST. :)

Along with the previous review, I almost returned this as the packaging says it is for 2007 and older models. After giving it a shot, it does work with our 2010 seat.

Honest reviews on Bugaboo Cameleon Adapter for Select Peg Perego Car Seats

This things are horribly designed! Basically, there are two ways you can use them:

1) Remove the car seat, somehow suspend the car seat in the air with one hand, while installing each one onto the car seat with your other hand, then place it into place on the Bugaboo, or;

2) Remove the car seat, and with the adapters already on the Bugaboo, somehow perfectly align BOTH adapters so that the "forked" ends line up with their corresponding slots in the car seat.

Either way is extremely impractical! I just want to remove the car seat and simply place it direct down onto the Bugaboo without an complications. And these adapters are NOT the answer.

You cannot have these adapters on the car seat when placed in the car on the base. If that were the case, I would've kept these, since placing the car seat onto the stroller with the adapters already on the car seat is pretty easy. But that means you have to put them one individually as detailed in option 1 above.

Your other option then is to place them on the stroller first, which is easy. But then comes the impossible part. Trying to place the car seat onto these adapters exactly where they need to be.

I even had 2 sales people at a local retailer try and they admitted that it was very difficult.

Anyway, I was so fed up with these adapters, I ended up buying a completely new car seat (the Graco SnugRide) and the corresponding adapter for the Bugaboo. And let me tell you, it's how it should be. I remove the Graco car seat from the base and just plop it right onto the adapter on the Bugaboo. Just like that. Easy.

Take a look at the Graco adapter and you'll see why. Because it mimics the car seat base. And these Peg adapters should've been like those too.

In short, I hated these things...

People have said that these do not fit their carseat but they fit my peg perego 2010 just fine. Not much else to say about these. Basically, they fit, they work, I can now attach my carseat to my bugaboo. Yay. :-)
