We brought the babybee rover as my sister-in-law already has one. It drives and handles well and is everything we need in a pram. We haven’t used ours yet as bub doesn’t arrive until August. Though we have gone with the capsule option and thankful for the adapters to attach the maxi cosi capsule.
Purchased in March 2022 at Babybee for $799.

Amazing pram, easy to move around, folds down nice and flat fits into small boot space in a Kia stonic. My daughter seems happy in her new pram with toys in the middle bar even better, only thing is the brake right hand wheel gets stuck every now and then when taking the brake off have to take 2-3 goes sometimes.
Purchased in April 2022 for $800.

Was hesitant to purchase online without trialling but have seen lots of these around and had heard some good reviews from others. Pram runs smoothly and baby is safe and comfortable, have only used the bassinet so far. High quality look and feel, glad we went with baby bee!

Pram is so lightweight, easy to fold and unfold. It comes with some handy extras, including the rain cover and caddy bag. The bassinet is super cosy for bub! Would recommend!

Great quality pram that is also very stylish. The basket is nice and large, and I love the convenience of being able to use my maxi cosi capsule interchangeably with the pram.

After researching the market for prams we found Babybee to be the most affordable for what you get, you dont have to buy the bassinet/toddler seat separate. Also loved that it is compatible with a range of capsules to make life easier.

When the rover 3 arrived I was surprised by how easy it was put together. And after using it how smooth it moves on different surfaces like grass and concrete. A great feature is the snug bassinet and how easy it clicks in. The suspension is subtle but effective and both the seat and bassinet offer great comfort.

I was so incredicbly happy with the Rover3 when we received it! We haven't used it properly yet, as our little miracle baby is yet to be born, but we've tested it out around the house (inside and out) as we live on a property and so far it's pushing like a dream! Bonus, it looks simply gorgeous. So so excited to finally use it soon!

Still really happy with my pram, but one thing I have noticed now Ive been using it is that when my baby had a little vom in the bassinet it goes through and wets the mattress which is tricky to clean and really annoying to change the sheet all the time. I’m going to by a waterproof sheet to fix this but would be great if that came standard with the pram (like the babybee Pod mattress does).
Hi Alice,
Thanks so much for your review. ...
Read more So glad your loving your Babybee! Cheers, ShannonWe absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE our Babybee Rover3. I was so torn between this and the Bugaboo Donkey 3 pram. After seeing my friend's Rover3 and trying it out I fell in love instantly. It's such a stylish sleek looking pram and the fact I could purchase a capsule with it as well as having the bassinet made me love it even more. It was delivered really quickly and it was so easy to set up. The added accessories was just a bigger bonus. Overall really happy we decided to go with the Babybee Rover3 and would recommend to anyone looking for a pram.

I was trying to decide between the Babybee Rover and the Reds Baby Jive and when I saw my friends Rover, it instantly made my mind up! It looked so sturdy and stylish. I was hesitant to buy online still but it came quickly, was so easy to set up, I did it myself at 6 months pregnant with their online videos. It has such a great feel, easy to turn, very sturdy and it looks amazing! I am so so happy that I bought this pram and would definitely recommend!! I got it a bit cheaper with one of their sales which definitely made it all worth it as well.

Love our Rover! We go for lots of walks around our area and this pram has never let us down.
Very satisfied with the pram’s performance and suspension. We go on lots of walks (in a hilly area) and it works well. Bubs always seems content and comfortable - he enjoys watching the world go by as we stroll him around.

The pram is good, nice motion. Best for flat pavements, not very useful off-road.
The base of the bassinet snapped in the middle when we mistakenly tried to fold it down to put it in the boot.
It's still useable, but disappointing that it snapped so easily, and is not covered under warranty as it was "improper use".
So make sure when you have your newborn out in the carpark, and you're trying to put the pram away, you google and refresh yourself on the rules before snapping something.
The storage area underneath is quite small too

Hi Tessa,
Thanks so much for your review. ...
Read more We do outline how to fold your pram in our manual and demo videos. It is fairly typical of all pram models with a separate bassinet to need to have it removed before folding. Cheers, ShannonFrom the ease of assembly, to how simple it is to put in the car to how fabulously it manoeuvres… this is the best pram! Also bub loves it too!

Questions & Answers
Aside from the Babybee branded toddler boards, what other brands of toddler boards are compatible with the Babybee Rover?
Hi there,
We haven't done any specific testing on other universal toddler board models. There are others out there that should fit but we can't guarantee they will work. ...
Read more It would be worth contacting the companies who make the toddler boards to confirm this. Also keep in mind that some may cause damage to your frame where they attach which is not covered by our warranty policy. If we can help with anything else please get in touch. Cheers, ShannonHi, what's the difference between the Rover 3 and Rover 2019?
Hi Ashley,
Thanks for getting in touch :)...
Read more The main differences between the ROVER2019 and ROVER3 are the built in UV cover in the bassinet and the easier access to the basket from the rear of the pram. Here is a link that will give you a full comparison between the ROVER2019 and the ROVER3 models. https://babybeeonline.com/pages/rover3 If there is anything else we can help with please let me know, we are here to help. Cheers, ShannonHi, we are tossing up between the Rover 3 and the Duo 2 for our first stroller. Have seen the comparison video and we are leaning towards the Rover 3 because it's more compact and lighter. However, we do like the the wheel sizes on the Duo 2. Would the Duo 2 wheels be compatible on the Rover 3?
Hi Josh,
Thanks for getting in touch. ...
Read more The wheels from the DUO2 are not compatible with the ROVER3. Keep in mind even though the DUO2 wheels are larger they are both designed for the same sort of use. They are larger on the DUO2 as the pram needs to be able to carry double the weight. We're sure you'll love the ROVER3 once you get it and feel the push but if for any reason you don't we do have our free 9 month return policy. Please get in touch if we can help with anything else.

Points of praise for the Babybee Rover:
- The most outstanding feature that reviewers raved about was the easy manoeuvrability of this pram. One reviewer commented, ‘…I can literally move the pram with one finger. So smooth!’ while another stated, ‘A breeze to operate.’
- The lightweight design also made the Babybee a pleasure to handle on a daily basis
- The compatible capsule was straightforward and non-fiddly, with one reviewer commenting that it ‘clicks perfectly into the pram conversion brackets’
- Ease of assembly was appreciated by a number of reviewers
- For a four-wheeler pram, the Babybee Rover made small work of manoeuvring more left-of-field surfaces, including dirt tracks. It was described by one reviewer as being ‘farm-life tested.’

All this praise can’t go unacknowledged. Accordingly, the Babybee Rover has won a 2021 Award for Best 4-Wheeler Pram. Its highest scores were awarded for its excellent manoeuvrability and value for money.
