Before we get started with a breakdown of configurations, let’s go over the basics.
The Bugaboo Kangaroo is a convertible stroller, designed to transition from a single to a double, and can even accommodate a third child with an additional Comfort Wheeled Board.
Inside the box, you’ll find a stroller frame, canopy, and a multi-use seat frame that can be converted from a newborn-friendly Pram to a toddler seat. The seat frame comes pre-assembled as a Pram, ready for your baby. However, you’ll also find the seat fabric in the box, so you can convert the seat frame to a toddler seat once your child is 6 months old.
We also love that you receive a pair of car seat adapters in the box, so you can transform your stroller into a travel system when you purchase one of the following infant car seats:
- Clek Liing
- Nuna PIPA
- Nuna PIPA Lite
- Cybex Aton 2
- Maxi-Cosi Mico 30
- Maxi-Cosi Mico XP Max
- Maxi-Cosi Coral XP
- Britax Willow S
While there are 4 configurations you can use right out of the box, the Kangaroo offers 10 more configurations when in double mode. You can find an image of these configurations on the bottom of your Kangaroo stroller basket.

To use the stroller in double mode, you will need to flip a piece on the chassis to ensure you have the proper distance between the seats. For a demonstration, go to the 12:00 minute mark of our YouTube Video.
