The Nipper Double is at the top of the price range of side-by-side prams. It is solid and well-constructed, and can be used by newborns from the age of four. The absence of parent-facing seating options, and not being compatible with car seats, place it in a higher price category than some other models, but the high-quality manoeuvrability, as well as the ability to deal with all terrains, makes it a solid contender.
The user's manual is clear and easy to read. The only criticisms I have are that they're noisy, clunky and that the Velcro used to secure them could make your baby scream. This is a problem especially if you're walking in a park quietly and you don't want other parents be disturbed. The absence of a storage area under the seats was also noted as a drawback.
