Morning all!!

I'm getting the " I need a new buggy" twitch and need some advice on which pushchairs are best for dog walking over rough terrain. I currently own a Phil & Teds vibe as I have a 3.5 year old and a 16 monther but want to sell as want to encourage my daughter to walk as its way too heavy to push with both kids in and to be honest I'm just bored of it!!!!! (don't tell the hubby this though!). I would prefer it to be 3 wheeled but any four wheeled suggestions welcome and as I've spent close to £2000 on buggies in the last 4 years its probably best if they're not too expensive!!! I have promised the hubby this will be the last! Also must be able to fit a buggy board to as my daughter is a bit of a lazy sod!!!!

mountain buggy, they are built for the job and take a buggy board, i would get a second hand pre 2010 one though as they are pre p&t take over and so not made in china!!!

I have a Jane Power something or other.
It's light and easy to push but very sturdy.
Got mine on EBAY though as they are ££££

i would second the mountain buggy.

only thing i would say though is that a buggy board is not good on rough terrain!!

yes did not think about that, buggy boards and rough terrain don't mix

Thanks for your suggestions, I'd love a mountain buggy especially one of the new runway collection. Might have to do some serious sucking up to the husband and hope I get a big xmas bonus from work!!! Does anyone recommend the new out n about nipper V2?

The buggy board is just for shopping trips and school runs!

I have just got a Mountain Buggy +one and it might really suit you. I have a 3.1year old and 16 month and although it wasn't perfect, we had a great day with it yesterday on an all day shop. It handles very well. I have literally 2 mins ago had a freerider delivered to try on the back to try and transition DD from pushchair to walking more. But it can be tied up, or put in the basket if she needs to ride. Both children look too small for the pushchair which is rare, so lots of room for growth. I am actually rather chuffed with it. It's a perfect school run / shopping pushchair. It looks great as a single or double.

You could always get new covers made for the Vibe if you like it and sell the dobles kit.
