What buggy (or buggies) do I need now?

So DS is 15 months and has been walking since he was 10 months so pretty steady. We have just moved house & our daily routine is changing a lot. Currently have an Uppababy Vista which has been awesome for walking dog, shopping etc but I cba lifting it in and out the car so have a YoYo which lives in the car and has been perfect for zooming around shopping malls etc but the teeny basket annoys me if we are out for the day.
Anyway new house means walks from home are more rural and the Uppababy just isnt coping with dog walks. It’s too wide & high. We are also using the car & the Yo-yo more and that teeny basket is
So what do I need now? Been looking at Nipper 360, BJCM GT, Any other suggestions?

I love my BJCM GT. I have an out and about as a double and whilst the push is good the basket isn’t as good as the GT and it doesn’t have the extra big hood. As a single I would choose the GT any day.

Oh thanks for that. I feel like everyone raves about the Nipper but I just don’t love it. Seat looks too slopey & I think the fold would annoy me.
How is the GT off road? Would it cope with grass?

I find it fine. It’s not as good as the Elite if you really want off-road- but that would be huge for putting in the car.

How do you find the YOYO? I’m on my last baby so last chance to own one and am tempted! Everyone raves about them but I’m sure I would hate it, the wheels look tiny!

I had an elite with DD & loved it but yes massive. I need something that folds neater.

I love the Yoyo and I am used to big off road prams. Light & easy to steer one handed - in fact you have to remember to put the brake on or it escapes. It handles bumpy pavements with ease, even a bit of short grass. Really impressed with the way it handles & it just fits everywhere. The basket isn’t awful you can fit a surprising amount in loose you just can’t chuck in a large rucksack a la vista 😂

The basket on the GT isn’t great for bags. It’s elasticated so can get plenty in but probably not a large rucksack.

Might keep my eyes open for a second hand YOYO then to give it a go.
