The Patented One-Hand Fold: How It Works

No other full-size stroller currently offers the Dragonfly’s patented fold mechanism. A single arm motion activates the fold regardless of which direction the seat is facing — parent-facing or world-facing — with one hand. The bassinet or seat stays fully attached throughout. There is no secondary step, no component to remove, and no configuration change required before folding.

Once collapsed, the Dragonfly stands upright independently. It holds its position in an apartment hallway, a car trunk, or a narrow boutique entrance without any wall support and without any hand holding it in place. The folded stroller can then be carried over one shoulder via the integrated carry strap or pulled like a trolley using the frame.

For Montreal urban parents, this translates directly to daily practicalities: fold at the top of a Metro staircase, manage the entrance of a café without putting the baby down, or load into a compact car without a second pair of hands. The fold works identically with the Pram Body bassinet or the toddler seat in position.

Bugaboo Dragonfly vs. Fox 5: Which Is Right for You?

The most common cross-shopping decision among Bugaboo parents comes down to the Bugaboo Dragonfly vs. Fox 5. Both are premium two-in-one strollers with reversible seats and bassinet capability. The right choice depends entirely on your primary environment.

The Dragonfly is lighter than the Fox 5 by approximately 2.5 kg, a meaningful difference when navigating transit, climbing stairs alone, or loading into a compact car regularly. The Dragonfly’s patented fold with the bassinet attached has no equivalent on the Fox 5, where the bassinet must be removed before folding — making the Dragonfly the decisive choice for compact city storage.

The Fox 5 offers a higher seat position, larger wheels, and more robust all-terrain suspension — better for parks, trails, and mixed-surface routes outside the city core. Both strollers share the same underseat basket capacity of up to 10 kg (22 lbs), so neither has a meaningful storage advantage.

Choose the Dragonfly for urban environments and compact storage. Choose the Fox 5 for mixed terrain and maximum ride quality.

Dragonfly Accessories: Complete Your Setup

The Dragonfly’s accessory ecosystem is designed to grow with your child and adapt to every city scenario. Kido Bébé carries the full accessory lineup for the Dragonfly, available online and in-store at the Montreal boutique.

Bugaboo Dragonfly Pram Body

The Bugaboo Dragonfly Pram Body is the full bassinet unit required for flat-lying newborn use from birth. It features a built-in breezy panel for airflow, an extendable UPF 50+ canopy, a pop-out visor, and a rotating carry handle. The Pram Body is included in the Dragonfly Complete configuration and is available separately for parents who purchase the seat-only version.

Rain Cover

The Dragonfly Rain Cover fits the seat or bassinet precisely, providing full coverage in wet conditions. For year-round city use in Montreal — where rain, slush, and unpredictable spring weather are seasonal constants — the rain cover is a practical addition rather than an optional accessory.

Sun Canopy

The Sun Canopy is available in additional colourways and fabrics for parents who want to customize their Dragonfly’s look while maintaining UPF 50+ protection. It attaches directly to the Dragonfly frame without tools.

Snack Tray

The Bugaboo Dragonfly Snack Tray attaches directly to the Dragonfly frame, giving toddlers a dedicated surface for snacks, drinks, and small toys during walks. It uses the Dragonfly’s integrated accessory attachment points and requires no modification to the frame.

Bugaboo Dragonfly Maxi-Cosi Car Seat Adapter

The Bugaboo Dragonfly car seat adapter enables travel system use by connecting a compatible Maxi-Cosi infant car seat directly to the Dragonfly frame. Compatible car seats confirmed for the Dragonfly include the Bugaboo Turtle One, the Turtle Air by Nuna, and Maxi-Cosi infant car seats via the dedicated adapter. The result is seamless car-to-stroller transfer without waking a sleeping newborn.
