Hiya, those ones look pretty cool - just be aware that most children wont have the strenght to grip and use the hand brake until about 3 years old or so. My 2 yo has a 'strider' balnce bike and they frame looks very similar to that in the pic except we dont have brakes nor does it convert to add pedals later. I got mine off Amazon dot com for an amazing price (and esp more so now since the aussie $ is so strong) compaired to what they sell for in australia. Another reason i went for the strider bike over another brand is that my ds is quite short and this one was able to be adjusted low enough for him to use it straight away.
Anywya - just my experience but as i said, the one you have linked to looks quite similar
That is the one we have and I was just saying to DH today it is one of our best buys. The only thing to think about is the height though. DS got one when he was just turned 3 (about a year ago). He could just use it as a balance bike on tiptoes and he is tall for his age. Once the seat goes on it has to go a bit higher than for just the balance so we didn't put them on until a few weeks back and he is 108cm.
