I'm Currently Feeling:  | All Terrain / Off road pushchairs
Just wondering if anyone has any recommendations for an all terrain pushchair? Because of where we live we need a pushchair that we can take on country / beach walks, but I don't reckon we'll use it that often (as we want to get a baby carrier aswell) so I don't want to spend too much...
So far I quite like the Mamas and Papa 03 Sport (£180) http://www.mamasandpapas.co.uk/product-100296500/type-i
The Mothercare Urban detour 3 wheeler extreme (£300 with travel seat) http://www.mothercare.com/gp/product/B000IERJUW
or the cheaper option...
the graco 3 wheeler excursion (£140 with travel seat) http://www.toysrus.co.uk/Product.asp...elgraco/725722
Anyone got any feedback on the above or another pushchair that might be a good option??
It's so hard to make a decision as there is SO much choice  (my head hurts  )
Cheers xx |

I'm Currently Feeling:  | My own opinion, but i think 4 wheelers would be better for off roading then 3 wheelers would be. I think theyre more stable. |

Anyone know of any 4 wheelers that would be good for off roading? It's just all the ones i've seen have quite small wheels and I'm guessing the bigger the better
Any suggestions appreciated xx |

It's a fab price, I can't get my head around why it's so much cheaper than the others (and with the car seat aswell)!!
Also, do you know whether the pushchair lies completely flat so it can be used for newborns (it doesn't seem to say on the description)?
(Sorry for all the questions  )
