    My quattro is so heavy that now that I am pregnant and am having bad back problems I can't use it, but I love it anyway and am going to keep using it with the new baby + 1 toddler.

    We had a Quattro Tour Deluxe with our son and loved it so we automatically started looking at the Quattro Tour Duo when we found out we were expecting twins. It is big, and yes, it is heavy, but we liked the setup on the seats, the super smooth ride (much smoother than the Duoglider, IMO) and we both liked the way that the handlebar is set up. My H is 6'3" and it was important that he was comfortable using it as well. We tried it out in store with two infant seats (added my purse for some weight) as well as with one infant seat and our four year old. It was super easy to steer with both configurations even one-handed.

    When I was PG I bought the DuoGlider and the Graco infant seats all in the Melbourne pattern. I loved it for that use, basically snapping in the infant seats and loved the big basket. I thought it would be great to have when the girls went to the convertible seats and they would sit in the stroller.

    When we started putting them in the stroller sitting I HATED it. The seats do not have a 5 pt harness so they would lean over and grab everything in their reach... clothes off racks, handbags of innocent people walking by and other kids toys out of their stroller, ahh! It was terrible. They would hang their arms ang legs out of the stoller, trying to lay sideways, total disaster.

     I sold the carriers and the DuoGlider and bought the Quattro Duo and love it! It's a little heavier but actually smaller when folded. I love the 5 pt harness, the great steering, a snack and cup holder for each DD (two cup holders for the adults too!) and it still has the huge basket. I also found a great deal on albeebaby.com.

     If I had more information, I would have bought the Quattro right away since the infant seats snap into it as well. Good luck! :)
