please help! ive just had dd2 (2weeks old today) and dd1 is 2 and a half, she still naps sometimes and walks super duper but needs a breather at times plus i can never travel light change bag/coats/kitchen sink..food etc etc....so....i had a p and t and my dear oh and i used it first time when went to reg birth other day, soooo not for us, we couldnt get baby in and out easily, dd1 looked way uncomfy on top seat asleep and i couldnt get into basket at all, had to carry above mentioned kit. disaster all round, didnt like how the baby got joggled about in cocoon with every slight bump in path....anyways its now up for sale, still smells new so bargain for someone...now do i go for nipper double or bjcm double? i def dont want another tandem, either one of these may fit through my door or not but we have covered porch so i can disembark and bring buggy in later if need be. my dilemma...
whats the storage on the baby jogger, basket looks abit hard to get to? also is it abit bumpy ride for baby as its not got air tyres? this v important to me after p and t joggling!

re the nipper...is the fold/unfold easier when you get used to it..looks fiddly online video demos, i like the fact its only 3 wheels and light weight, would i feel a bit daft pushing the slightly chunkier more obviously 2 seater bjcm around the place with just one child in situ when toddler walks?
both these well in budget and can get accs like footmuffs etc or......the mountain buggy duo?!?! i love this but is it perhaps a touch over the top considering my twos age gap? espesh as id be busting budget for it...thing is i read its very narrow so that appeals as i would get everywhere i need to go!! help! dont want to have to swap buggy again!

Nipper is fab. Closes up no ulkie he P&T - i.e it kinda folds backwards.
I can get mine through an interior door by taking one wheel off, with the kids on board. I have 2 1/2 yr twins but different weights. Dont know if that helps.
They sell well on ebay so look there maybe?

we just bought a nipper double and I love it, it pushes better than P&T. the folding is ok when you have done it a few times and my fingers are less likely to get trapped than they were folding P&T. It is 77cm and just fits through our front door - not found any faults yet at all!

if i had my time over i'd buy a nipper double. Sooooo light great for folding and transporting into car. Great for pushing one handed whilst you hold 2.5yr olds hand. good size seasts lovely big hood. Lovely all round really and good price. Retro raspberry would be lovely for two girls!

i've just bought one actually for my two to use over the holidays and they are 3 and 4yro! and its still easy to push.

The Nipper double is amazingly light and so easy to push - not sure about width if you have narrow hallway, but ace all-round!
