Proper off road pram!

[livelyredjellybean]

Just started looking for a pram today...
Looking for a serious off-road pram; I have 7 dogs and a horse and walk in fields (no paths). My OH also does a lot of work on the beach. We rarely spend time in town and we do drive (big cars!).
We would prefer a 4 wheeler to a 3 wheeler as we have been advised they are less likely to tip.
Do any of you wise MNers have any loves, hates or ideas when it comes to a pram like this??
Thanks in advance!

As mentioned in a previous post, It's got to be the Baby jogger summet X3. Mine is FABULOUS. Look on pushchairs.co.uk. That's where I got mine. Easily fits a carry cot (and cat seat) too. Huge basket, light to push, super easy fold. Huge weight limit. Fabulous fabulous Pram that I drag up and down the beach, muddy fields, unmade roads etc. It's amazing.

We had a bob, only pushchair I bought. That and an ergo saw us through everything.

Truly off-road, I wore the tyres out we did so many miles. Lifted it over stiles going up big hills.

Very capable.

Out n about nipper 360 is fab, but three wheels and does have a few slightly annoying features, none to do with pushing it though.

Baby jogger elite or summit are both very good, with lots of good features but again only three wheels.

Four wheel, I had front all terrain wheels for my bugaboo cam which made it great off road. They are really hard to find now as they are discontinued.
One of the Emmeljunger (sp) or one of the Polish prams.

On the three wheel issue though. I found tipping more an issue on three wheel 'city' type prams where the front wheel is small, the Quinny Buzz or Zapp for example tipped frequently. I've never tipped my big three wheelers.

I have horses and do lots of outdoor stuff. I have an out n about Nipper. Currently pushing it across a hay field every day, have done forest walks, beach on sand and pebbles. It does it all, some of it isn't easy as such but you CAN do it.

I used a sling with ds when he was smaller.

Looking for a suitable double now.....

My baby jogger versa GT (four wheels) is great in mud and on beaches as a buggy, though a bit bouncy as a pram on rough ground. For really awful mud you'd be better off with a sling, though.

Another vote for the emmaljunga ones - you can pick the chassis and the four wheelers are great
We have a duo sport and it manages Swedish snow.

I love my out and about. Gets used mainly in snow and slush and works like a dream. Is really light to push too - can actually be pushed and steered with one hand.

Honestly can't recommend emmaljunga enough. I have an edge duo, it's 10 years old, really sturdy, very weatherproof with built in mosquito sun net, fantastic size carrycot that can be used for baby to sleep in, fully reclining pushchair unit and can also have a car seat attachment if required. We do a lot of walking off road and taken it around the lakes. It also has a massive metal shopping basket underneath than can hold our water tank for camping!!!

Edge duo is fabulous
We don't even have the off road chassis and it manages snow, ice, mud, fields and the building site we live in. Built to an entirely different quality level than anything else I've seen, incredible adjustable suspension, huge (vast) bassinet, huge seat.
The only downside is it's not small folding but you don't expect that with a bigger pram. We have a smaller nippier one for car/bus and the emmaljunga lives in the hall and gets used for long walks .
They're very common here (I live in Sweden) for good reason. They hold their value well and I often see ones that are clearly decades old.
There's a review in the pushchair review section.
