Hello all

This is my first post on mumsnet! Question: I need a good value off roader. I can't afford a Mountain Buggy and don't want to go second hand. I've noticed the Nipper and Twister are good value - but which is best?

PLEASE HELP!

Thanks
Cheryl

The nipper 360 is lighter however the twister will fit a much larger child, my near 6 year old can still fit in mine!!!!

I've not had a nipper 360 but I think most children will be too big for one by 2.5 and the seat is quite tilted back.

The twister has shock absorbers on the rear and a nice high handle - personally I like it & have had a LOT of 3 wheelers.

I have a xts twister and it is too big and heavy to go in the car so it just gets used for walking the dog locally - wish I had looked into it more. The nipper is certainly lighter I have a friend who has one and is really pleased with their purchase.

When you are deciding which to go for look at when and where you will use it most - whether you need to put it in the car.

I get my xts in the boot fine, with the exception of the nipper the "proper" 3 wheelers are all on the heavy side tbh. Def something to consider.

My 4 year old still goes in my Nipper when poorly,her 5 year old brothers could fit If I ever let them. Nipper 360s are fantastic I only ever had a Nipper,never needed anything else
