Whats different:

The Getabout Buggy comes with Balloon Wheels, these are a very low pressure tyre with a 'big footprint' this means they don't sink into the sand like ordinary wheels. This means that you can use the Getabout Buggy without the need for a beach mat to get you down to the water, and once there just take it straight into the water. Its unique construction means it can just be washed over when you come out of the sea or pool.

Balloon wheels are not designed for use in parks or on roads but just for sand, however we have a kit that converts the Junior Getabout Buggy to allow it to be used in parks and trails in a couple of minutes, making it able to go just about anywhere.

For an adult chair the Balloon Wheels are larger 16” at the rear, however its not just the wheels that are different, the seat & backrest are reinforced, and the axles are stainless steel. But we will say that pushing on wet sand or a beach mat is very different to pushing on soft sand, and it may be sensible to push the handle at the rear while having someone pull on the pull cord/reigns. dont be surprised if for someone who is 70-80 kg you need 2 people on soft sand, however this changes as soon as you get to wet sand or a mat.

Kat, being reminded the sea is not so warm after a few years!
