hi guys, i got a problem, i had my new pushchair for faith about 5 months ago and this morning one of the rubber tyres flew off! its the 2nd pushchair i have had that has become totally demolished by walking the dog! my first pushchair lasted ages considering i went on the beach everyday and carried it with faith in up and down *!#%!@! and went through many forrests whilst walking lacey! now i live nowhere near a beach but i walk the dogs on a large common 5 mins from me! can anyone suggest a pushchair worthy of lasting the 10 to 20 miles a day i walk the dogs for!! i must stress my walks are very much off road! i think one with an engine would help but they don't exhist! the reason i take a pushchair still is because faith is too slow at walking still and it annoy's the hell out of me to walk slowly, i'm not a mum that wants her in a pushchair til she's 4/5 but she is only 2 and ver, very slow and still often wants carriying, any suggestions

Hi

Ive got a chicco buggy/pushchair from argos for Kieran, i walk 3 dogs ove the handles and its still going strong. Though it cost £120 but well worth it.

viperginger! yes a cheap pushchair would be the ideal way to go if i thought for one minute that it would take the abuse i give the ones i use! within 4 months the rubber and tread have dissapeared off all of the wheels on mine, i proper walk heftily with it and i don't think a cheap one would be up to the challenge, and i also don't think that one with proper tyres would withstand the terraine i go on either, its well annoying, thanx for the input though

i know what u mean candyfloss but they have proper tyres and i think they would puncture very easily, people who see me think i'm mad where i go with the pushchair, faith weighs a little over 2 stone and i carry her up massive steep stairs and over really muddy patches but theres only so much i can carry her though, so i suppose a light wieght one would be ideal but then it would be flimsy,,,i canna win

once i got on a bus with a ruc sack (25l) full to the brim with potooooooooes, and big milks, (it was super heavy if i stood up straight i would've fell over) the pushchair had 2/3 bags on each handle and under the chair was full, plus faith aswell, the bus came and it had steps split in 2, i managed to lift the pushchair (so strong just then) on to the bus where there was a man and his wife sat in the feckin space, the lady moved but said that her husband had a bad back so he couldn't move so i had to stand up for 6 miles on the bus whil this bloke sat comfortably not even bothered, they got off the stop just b4 mine and a random woman said to me "that was disgusting how could they just sit there and let u stand up" she didn't help either like ya know but at least she gave a sh*t!! sum people are so innconsiderate!!!

i went to go on the bus one time with me double pushchair both of me daughters were asleep (1 month and 1 year old) and the push driver told me your gonna have to take your kids out and fold the pushchair down bus was nearly empty no pushchairs on it i turned round and told the bus driver if he wants to help me with pushchair and have 2 screaming kids on the journey fine he soon changed his mind lol by the way it was a double pushchair where the 2 seats in front of each other not side to side and you can park it in one space it does not abstruct the walk way and i stand right next the the high thing that people put their bags on so not to take any more pushchair space

it doesnt matter how much space you take the idea is they are to save struggling with kids and pushchairs even though half the time its more of a struggle because of ignoramouses
