I checked both strollers in the store, folding the Bugaboo is incredibly easy and also changing the direction of the seat (just like in the armadillo - no need to collapse it). Personally I'm in favor of the new Armadillo xt but this review doesn't do the Bee3 justice
Cecilia Pittenger my biggest sell point was the longevity of use, the mamas and papas has a greater weight capacity and I tested both using my 4yr old daughter and felt the bugaboo unsteady and squeaky, again she was 40ibs at that time (over the limit) and a plus she was able to take naps without dangling legs.
