I think you mean strollers, not a pram (=vaunut), don´t you?

Four wheels. Those flimsy three wheel things are just for city center, and totally useless in snow.

There was a thread on this just a few weeks ago.
I've had about 7 different buggies in 2 years- my favourite winter buggy is my 3 wheeler. The larger the wheels the better.

They haven't broken on me, I just fancied a change!
I sell my 'old' ones on and buy a new one..either second hand or new. There are some funky designs out there that are just crying out to be 'test driven'!

I'm a bit of a bugghy-holic, it goes with my obession with cloth nappies!

:shock:

I had three kids and ONE pram/stroller/buggy which was kind of one-size convertible and was FAB for any new born and still great as a pushchair until they were walking. Luckily number one walked (just) before number two arrived and number two walked before number three arrived, so I never needed one of those really awful twin-buggy things. When we moved from France to Finland I gave the stroller to their nounou (childminder) and she still has it! The whole of the inside was machine washable and I used to Karcher the wheels from time to time. Don't think I ever had to use it in the snow though!
