Hello

I am thinking of getting one of these and leaving my double stroller behind. Is this the best double in this price bracket? Need to start some serious walking to loose some Xmas lbs! Lol

I've not tried the V3 but have an older 2nd hand one from eBay and love it! Can walk for miles it's so easy to push and all the kids love being in it. Downside is it's quite big when folded but I'm lucky that I can leave it up all week and only put it away if I'm entertaining. If anything happens to this one I will seriously think about getting a new one.

I have a nipper 360 and wouldn't be without it. I suffered with terrible shoulder ache from pushing my cheap double stroller and invested in a very good 2nd hand one off ebay. It cost me £150 and its so easy to push with one hand. I don't really have anything to compare it to but when it breaks I'll get another.

The only negative is it doesn't fit through my front door but I just pop a wheel off and it fits through :D

Wouldnt be without one!! Treated myself to a new one in purple and I love it:blush: it fits through the backdoor at 72cms, even if this isn't an issue for you, they can be pick up second-hand quite cheaply! you wont regret it a dream to push!

Thanks to all for your thoughts. I definitely want one of these. I have been looking everywhere for a used one but no luck yet (I'm in kent). Tempted to splash out on a new one but will hang on a couple if weeks to see if one comes up. Does anyone know a good buggy board to go with this pushchair? Thx

A Lascal board fits on my double nipper but I have the old nipper not the V3 :D

I don't think the frame will have changed that much will it?

Today I used my double Nipper with my Lascal buggy board (so 3 children) and could still push it with one hand whilst talking to a parent on the phone with the other. Brilliant pushchair :thumbsup:

According to the out n about website the width is 72cm for the v3 where did you get the wider measurement from? Really hope its not got wider as was planning on buying the v3

According to the following website, the first V2 was the wider measurement, and then they brought out a slimmer version of the V2: Out ‘n’ About Nipper 360 | Best Buggy (http://www.bestbuggy.co.uk/category/twins/out-n-about-nipper-360/)

I would imagine the Out n About website would have to list the right dimensions for the V3, or they might get some unhappy customers.

I have a V2 and am very happy with it.

ETA: Did you see this thread about a special offer ending tonight?

Took the plunge and bought a new nipper :))) I got it from tesco direct in the end at the sale price. I must say it cost a lot but it is so worth it! I would really recommend. Only one downside. When going down a curb with one seat empty, it does wobble when the front wheel is on swivel mode. Even given this would not change it for anything.
