  "question": "What does a Bugaboo stroller seat frame do, and how do the listed Bugaboo seat frames differ?",
  "answer": "Bugaboo Buffalo Seat Frame: The seat frame is designed to hold both the bassinet and stroller seat fabric and serves as the basic seat structure. Fabrics and the carry handle are not included and must be bought separately.\nBugaboo Cameleon 3 Plus Seat Frame: The seat frame is the basic structure that holds either the Cameleon 3 Plus bassinet or seat fabric so a baby or toddler can nap or sit. The seat is not suitable for children under 6 months. Seat and bassinet fabrics are not included and must be purchased separately.\nBugaboo Donkey Seat Frame: It is a stroller seat base designed to hold the seat and/or bassinet. The store lists compatibility with Donkey, Donkey 2, Donkey 3, Donkey 5 and Donkey 6, as does the maker product listing; sources disagree because the North American manual restricts this frame to Donkey 6 chassis 100431002. Seat and bassinet fabrics and the carry handle are not included.",
