Quinny freestyle....opinions please

[LadyTophamHatt]

Can't be fudged to type it all out again but I think I need a new buggy.

here's the reason why..

I really like these but it will be my first 3 wheeler so i'm a really novice.

I wanted a Quinny , 'cos I thought they looked great, but I asked a woman on the street once who was pushing one, what she thought of hers.

She hated it, and showed me a scar on her hand where the Quinny had folded down and caught her, she couldn't say a nice thing about it. Put me right off buying one, but as I say it's only the opinion from a woman in the street

Bought a Hauck instead - too heavy, now got another one (can't rememeber what it is) but the front wheel doesn't move around so it's quite had pushing it 'off road' IYSWIM

too late now.....just bought one!

Oh well, still think they look great , please tell me when you get it, if it's any good.

I really like mine - was great with the baby car seat and very comfy for dd. It's good for off-roading as well. The only problem I've ever had was pushing it in very deep snow abroad - and the problem was simply the middle wheel.
We chose it mainly for the adjustable handle. It's certainly comfier for me to push than some of the more lightweight models.
On the other hand it's not the easiest to take abroad and BA lost the trim off a wheel when it was only 6 weeks old so we always had it wrapped in a bike bag after that. I've certainly never trapped my hand in it when putting it up or down.

We basically got it because our old ones were very dated. Mamas and Papas had bad write ups on brakes and very few other models had adjustable handles.
