Nipper Sport Double V5

I love our Out and About Nipper Sport. British designed, really well engineered bit of kit. Easily comfortable for a sub 20 pace.

fastest "dad" at our parkrun last week was 20min with a double buggy so I reckon you actually need another child too! ;) seriously though, Out n About nipper sport is great.

Although it will cost more than a single package, you might consider getting the Joolz Aer+/Aer² for your main pushchair and then buying a second hand Out n About Nipper Sport v5 for the countryside. The sport version is cheaper than the normal version as it has a fixed front wheel. Both lie flat so can be used from birth, although you shouldn't run with the nipper until your baby is 6 months old. The wheels come off the nipper for putting it in the car (though if you've got them muddy then you might want to leave an old towel in the boot for a quick wipe down). A true do it all solution doesn't exist which is why many people eventually get a compact travel pram in addition to their main day to day travel system. A bassinet/carrycot attachment can also be absolutely worth it, even if your baby grows out of it in 4 months. Many are rated safe for overnight sleep so you can use them in the day time for naps in the living room, or just as a safe place to put baby while you do something, without having to take them to or move the cot in the bedroom. Some babies like carriers and some don't. Same for pram bassinets/carrycots. You won't know until your baby arrives unfortunately. I personally bought a Babystyle Oyster3 (with carrycot) and love it. It's a good all-rounder but probably bigger and heavier than you want for city living. The Oyster4 has now been released and has a much better folding system. I think it's mid range on price but does everything you need it to so I'd recommend it over more expensive options. Maybe it's worth checking out if you only want to buy one pram.

We started off with a second hand Uppababy Vista for £50 then as soon as she was 6 months went for an Out N About Nipper Sport. Perfect for buggy running, went all over the Lake District including the Buttermere circular, fabulous on the beach while we saw so many people struggling with their tiny wheeled prams. My daughter is nearly 4 now so stopped using it before aged 3 as we forced her to walk everywhere🤣 but that pram met our lifestyle needs completely. Edit: all 3 wheels come off so will fit in your boot easily

Honestly I would just use the money to get an OutNabout double stroller. You can get either a newborn insert or a newborn part for it whichever suits your budget. I love mine as its so easy to control and push. In saying that I am still also using the uppababy vista as my youngest doesn't like to be facing away from me he completely freaks out. My toddler is also a big lad and the OutNabout is perfect for him so much room and cosy. I can't lift the uppababy up on curbs as he's to heavy so we're constantly looking for flat ground. As soon as my youngest feels happy facing away from me I'll be using my OutNabout all the time :) I know I just gave a load of pros and cons but maybe you'll relate in a few months. I have 19 months between mine.
