Out ‘n’ About Nipper Sport Stroller | Jogging Pushchair | Newborn - 4 Years | Lightweight All-Terrain Buggy | Forest Black | Rain Cover Included

Product Information

The large wheels bump up and down kerbs effortlessly and with minimal disturbance to my small passenger. But they do make the buggy extra long, so it unfortunately isn’t well suited to public transport or navigating small shop aisles. However, I regularly take it grocery shopping and have experienced no spatial issues unless the supermarket is particularly busy. At just 9.8kg, the Out N About Nipper Sport is so lightweight that it can be pushed one-handed while jogging. The foam handlebar provides a comfortable grip, but I’ve found that it does absorb water when it rains. The Nipper Sport can be folded away using the lever on the left side of the running buggy – I found it quite awkward to operate in comparison to some one-handed, compact folds that other running strollers use.

I currently store the Nipper in my kitchen when not in use, however I have enough space to leave it unfolded with the wheels attached. It does also stand upright when folded for storage. Out N About Nipper Sport V4: how easy is it to clean? Our commitment to practicality, lightweight design, easy maintenance, and durability has been at the core of our non-negotiable design principles for over 20 years. We believe that a pushchair should be a reliable companion that can withstand the demands of outdoor terrain while providing convenience and comfort for both parent and child.

Out N About Nipper Sport V4: can it be used with a newborn?

You can keep an eye on your child while running or walking thanks to the retractable sun canopy with peek-a-boo window. While attempting to keep true to the design of the original Nipper buggy, Out’n’About have kept up with consumer trends and expanded their offerings. Would I recommend the Out N About Nipper Sport V4 to parents? Absolutely. No, it’s not the smallest of buggies, it isn't compact when folded and likely won’t fit comfortably in your car boot unless you remove the front wheel first. But it’s more than fit for the purpose it was intended for and that’s running.

Be gentle with the rain cover attachment poppers at the front of the pram and the foam on the handlebar as these are known to be vulnerable areas for wear and tear after more long-term usage. The sun canopy is large enough to provide decent coverage, however it’s noisy to fold in and out, which could disturb a napping baby. Note: mine miraculously stays sleeping each time I do this! Having tried a number of running strollers on the market right now, the Out’n’About Nipper Sport Running Buggy does hold its own.

This sturdy piece of kit from Kiwi brand Mountain Buggy was originally designed to navigate complex terrain and mountain paths around New Zealand, so it's an ideal ride if you're a trail runner with a tot in tow. Our tester found it was really easy to set up, while the clever one-hand fast-fold action means it collapses in seconds. The Terrain also has a swivel front wheel which can be easily switched from run to walk mode and comes in handy for shopping trips and use as an everyday buggy too. But the greatest feature is its longevity: you can use this buggy from six months old up until your kid is about five, and it has a retractable leg rest for toddlers, too. Key featuresWhile most regular three-wheel buggies feature a swivel front wheel, the Out N About Nipper Sport V4 has what most running buggies have: a fixed front wheel. Admittedly, this took me a bit of getting used to during those first couple of outings, but the frame is so lightweight that the front wheel can easily be lifted off the ground when changing direction.

The Nipper Sport has a handlebar mounted brake lever that works well, but perhaps could be a little more responsive. Its location in the middle of the handlebar is similar to other brands but some runners may have preferred a brake lever on the side rather than the middle.With rear suspension, Out’n’About are hoping to provide both parent and child with a smooth ride irrespective of surface. I find that the frame also needs to be wiped down every now and again, especially when taking the buggy off-roading. Price and competition: is the Out N About Nipper Sport V4 good value for money? To build an iconic British brand that enables families who love spending time outside, journey anywhere, together . Through functional design, unmatched customer experiences, and a thriving work environment, we deliver durable, value-driven products so future generations can continue to embrace the great outdoors, together. The handle bar can be adjusted to suit each parent and comes with lots of padding to provide a pleasant experience for the hands (no blisters!). For parents who like a lot of buggy storage, the Nipper Sport may disappoint. It features a mesh storage pouch that sits underneath the seat unit rather than a full storage basket.

There’s no doubt that the Out N About Nipper Sport V4 has been designed primarily with running in mind, but it also functions very well as a day-to-day buggy, particularly if you live in a rural area and regularly do a good amount of off-roading like I do. This is something to consider if you plan to use the Nipper Sport for walking rather than running and you anticipate some trips into cafes, shops or restaurants. It can be awkward to maneuver in tight situations. The foot-break works well with minimal faff if you need to take a break from running to sip some water or tend to your very important passenger. If you opt for a pushchair without a huge amount of storage space underneath or you simply have lots to carry, it's worth buying buggy clips to hook shopping bags onto the bars. • Pushchair fleece hand muff Steering: Includes a fixed front wheel so you can lean into corners, providing more stability over rough terrainSteering: Smooth steering and easy to push thanks to adjustable suspension and air-filled rubber tyres
