Graco tour deluxe, Hauck Trio or Hauck Condor


As you can see my husband and I are opting for an all in one, comes with everything travel system.

We originally chose the Graco Tour Deluxe all in one over the Hauck Shop n drive. But now we (and by we I mean me) have seen the condor and the trio and they are getting great reviews I am so torn.

We have seen and played with the Graco and it's big and feels safe and comes in a neutral colour ( the I Love Baby one) and we have seen them out and about. To view and play with the Hauck ones we need to drive for about 1&1/2 to 2 hours to go to a showroom that has them in stock. I do like the look of it and have watched the videos but husband wants to see and play with the two models to see which we prefer.

Before we make the trip I thought I would come on here and find out what you think? Do you have one of the three, have you tried out or discounted them?

Positive and negative feedback is welcome.

Thanks

Dee x

I've been researching the graco deluxe (also sold as trenton deluxe in mothercare for £280) versus the hauck viper trio.
For me the graco has a slight edge as it has a car seat dock which can be left in the car but I can't find anything about one for the viper trio. Review wise I've seen a lot of bad reports on wheel durability on the graco and haven't had much luck finding reviews for the viper trio at all....

I've only been able to find the hauck online - which showrooms have you seen them in?

I've also heard bad reviews on most hauck pushchairs because of the wheels being plastic and usually jam or break within months apparently.

I don't know about that particular one though

I haven't been able to try them out which is why I am asking for others personal reviews. There are a few places up in the north of England and in Bedford but that's too far me.

I have just seen a review for the viper in Teseco baby and toddler club magazine and it got 4 out of 5.

We looked at the Trenton but found the toys rus Graco version didn't look as bulky in beige.

I like the Hauck as it looks a bit more modern!

I had the Trenton for my last baby and sold it when she was two months. It was heavy, large, bulkey it was a nightmare to fit in the car with the pram attachment aswel. I had a hauck with my son was bought for us as a Christmas gift and i used it for LO after we sold the trenton until I found a great little pushchair. My hauck was used in snow ect and was amazing!
I'm looking at the condor this time too x

I have a Hauck trio and it is fab, never had one problem with it, I am a bit of a pram o holic I now have 4 and my hauck beats my quinny buzz by far, I have tried the graco and it was heavy when trying to lift it, Hauck prams are great the only down side i would say the matching changing bags dont fit much in so I bought a bigger one x
