I did look at them but it would not fit through one of the gates at my daughter's school. I have now managed to buy a ABC EVEREST TWIN/TRIPLET PUSHCHAIR it is 2nd hand of ebay, so far have to use it. so far am really impressed as once the wheels all come of I can get it in the boot of my Espace.

Are the seats tiny? and is it rally heavy to push - I know it will be heavy with 3 in but is it a nightmare?

I had a peg perego(Mamas and Papas) triple tandem, it was lovely and comfy and roomy for the children, and you could have them facing you or away, it fitted through normal doorways, but it was quite bulky to store, the shopping basket was rubbish and there were no raincovers, I had to have it shipped from Italy. It wasn't too heavy but it was a bit difficult pushing round tight corners, however it was great for narrow pavements, so I would recommend it, very expensive new though:)

I have a double buggy of a similar style. I push a 23 month old and a 3 year old in it, and it is soooooo heavy! the little wheels really make it hard work.

i needed a triple and I looked at this because of the price, but I considered it to be totally unsuitable to me, I can't fit it through my front door, I wouldn't be able to fit through the door at playgroup, or through the school gates etc. I hve now bought the ABC Everest off Ebay, double with the top toddler seat, and it is FAB!!! I completely love it! With 3 children in it, it is easier to push than my double buggy!!! :clapping:

Do you have a childminders resources centre, I pay £14.50 a year and can hire large equipment, safety gates etc, garden toys .....

worth looking into mine saves me a fortune:thumbsup:

I had one of those and it was great, but it was heavy. I sold mine as I decided I never wanted to be that busy with tiddlies again :laughing: Also I have always suffered from a bad back and I dont think pushing it was helping so as soon as one got big enough to walk I stuck them on reins and went back to my double

I find the o'baby single hard to push. I looked at the triple but the single has put me off. I went for a T3 jogger in the end. Cost a fortune but converts to a double so sorts most ;) of my buggy needs!

yep - I can imagine it'd be a bit heavy up hills but I don't have any to climb here! It's easy on the flat - helped by the huge wheels I think!

I've got the ABC Mountain Buggy. It's excellent it's a double with a toddler seat on top. If I had anything wider I wouldn't fit on the pavements.

I have this buggy, it used it with a 3 month old, a 12 month old and a three yr old. I am thinking of selling it because I really want a Phil & Teds, and don't use the triple anymore. PM me if you are interested.
