Hi we have bugaboo bee for 7 month dd and she is growing out if quickly. We live backing onto the meadow land and wondered if anyone knows how the toro or expecially the nipabout does over rough terrain. The nipabout sounds good to us as it has a rear racing option so am getting tempted to see the bee - any advice really really welcome thanks xxx

We have a toro which does well for us over rough terrain. We have taken it on lots of walks over fields and the moor. With very bad terrain like big stones etc we tip it onto it's back wheels. The only gripe i have with it though is the handles are fairy low (imo) I'm not tall (5'8) but feel a bit stooped. If your shorter it would be ok. Hope that helps

Oh and how is the bugaboo bee? I have a silvercross pop for the car but have being tempted by the bee!

We had a Nipabout on the shop floor which fell apart after simlpy demonstrating it. We sold one which not surprisingly came back after it fell to bits too. Not recommended!

Is the Bee really too small? It seemed quite roomy when I tried my 10 monther in it. Have you moved the seat part to make it a bit deeper?
