nipper

Ok, so I have a Phil and Teds E3 and a Maclaren twin techno. The P&T I bought off ebay and love to bits apart from the fact whoever goes underneath in the doubles seat, (usually the toddler) can't see very much (well, that's my opinion). I decided to get a side by side maclaren, only because we had a single twin techno for ds and dd and it seemed bomb proof. Only problem is, it's a hard ride for the occupants and a hard push for me when going over any surface other than tarmac. Small stones seems to either stop it dead or cause the wheels to lock and skid, whereas the Phil and Teds offers a really smooth ride and steer.
After 'struggling' to school with the maclaren this morning (along pavements as well) I am now thinking about getting a nipper 360 purely because I think the chunky wheels can cope with any terrain you seem to throw at them. Can anyone tell me if it handles the same as the Phil and Ted, because that thing seems to turn on a six pence. I must admit I prefer the side by side seating arrangement because they can have a chat to each other as well!
