Hauck Viper (Trio)

I've seen mixed reviews, and not many of those tbh! It looks to be pretty much everything i need - will bump up stairs, reasonable price, big shopping basket, nice off-road wheels - but will i waste my money?
Over to the collective wisdom...

Does no response mean it's crap, it's good, or bugger off Pidjie we're on holiday?

I've never seen one in RL..... Have had 2 Haucks generally. Both had lots of good points but both had at least one thing I couldn't live with. My Malibu had bumpy not very round wheels so when you pushed it on smooth surfaces you could see the baby wobbling. Hauck Duett no problems like that but found it problematic (but not impossible) to use for toddler and newborn in sensible manner, which was the whole point.
Have you seen a Viper in RL or anywhere nearby you could hunt one down?

The big shopping basket will be inaccessible when using the carrycot or if the seat was fully reclined unfortunately and I don't think it would be great off road tbh as the wheels don't look that great.
Like Ihateparties says can you get to see one in RL?

That's what I'm trying to work out - where can i go to play with one!
It's such a good deal, and covers so much of what i need from a buggy, that there has to be a catch

This Hauck viper is all terrain although its a 3 wheeler found the cheapest price of £119. I am looking to get this but my current buggy non brand cost so little now i got 2 purchases to make . one is a steam cleaner and one baby pushchair !
