Thanks

I've used both and on level ground there is little to separate them, both really easy to push. Off-road, however, the two wheels on the front of the mountain buggy make it far more stable, so if like us you go off-road quite a bit the mountain buggy might be better. It is also narrower by about 8cm I beleive. The downside is that it's significantly more expensive than the nipper.
I opted for the full mountain buggy because we use it off road in some difficult terrain at weekends mostly.

I have the duet as its the only one to fit through my front door.
Its not as light and easy to push as the nipper -doesn't really compare.
if it needs to fold small for a car boot - the nipper is better.
But if you've got small doors / hall etc then theres only the duet which I narrower than the nipper - and the only thing that fits in my house! I decided to go for it as with new baby twins I needed something which I could bring into house if they were asleep rather than attempting to transfer them.
My nipper fits through my front door and all the internal doors too. It's a v2 , I also push it with one child lol, I get some funny looks though x

I love my Nipper and like others have said I also do use it for just 1 child occasionally as I find it so easy to push / steer. Mine will fit through my front door but I have quite a wide older wooden front door, it wouldn't fit through my UPVC front door in my old house, but it doesn't fit through my internal doors.
