i just bought the Valco Ion Plus which is what i think your are looking at? The Valco Ion is the same pram without the Husssh bassinet. I got mine from Babyzonedirect for quite a good price? I obviously havent used it just very organised! lol i saw it at the baby expo when in Brisbane back in march. it is very compact and so light and very easy to push around even with one hand! the basket isnt HUGE but i think it will be fine. The fold is easy as well.
Ours arrived on the weekend and i have just assembled it and is good as i remember. - cant give you any actual use advice yet (unless i get one of my pups in it lol!) but i am really happy with the purchase. Think it will be great.
Cheers minivini. The baskets no biggie, I have two older packhorses, oops I mean children who can carry their own crap around. Nor am I a huge nappy bag user. I'm actually going to buy the pram and the bassinette separately as it works out cheaper - but you probably got a good deal. Might go and have a look at BZD.
Kell I promise I did look and request one a few weeks ago, but I figured you guys were just busy.
I was tossing up between the Valco Ion and the Strider Agile - similar price, weight etc
We really liked both but ended up going with the Strider partly because it came in bright green (seriously...that was a strangely compelling reason...I'm blaming pregnancy brain) but mostly because we wanted a travel system and using the Ion with a capsule involved buying adapters etc etc which I didnt likw. Also, the Strider had somewhere for the kid to put his or her feet when we use it as a stroller...I thought the Valco was a bit lacking in that area...but obviously that's a tiny thing - definitely the Valco has a massive hood which suits you perfectly. Valco is also an Australian brand which is a plus too
