“I bought the Chicco Trio 4 Me due to it being...”

★☆☆☆☆

written by on 20/08/2010

I bought the Chicco Trio 4 Me due to it being apparently light weight and simple to use. I REGRET buying it and at this moment would get rid if I had the money. The pram/cot part was good enough but the brittle plastic holding the hood up snapped and the store (and Chicco alleges the store) could not repair it without the hood being permanently jammed in the upright position. Also the chassis part is very very flimsy and cannot even take a tiny bump up a little raised pavement. I have to stop and tip the pram backwards to get about most of the time. After a caesarean this is not what you want to be doing. It's like a childs play pram. The pram rain cover (bought separately) leaked at the seams. The cheap carseat raincover I bought on ebay for the car seat was fine. I am now using the buggy part and this is even more cheap and nasty. Trying to fold down, lift and get in the boot of the car is not simple with the buggy attachment. My biggest gripe now is the raincover provided for the buggy. It is absolutely the most useless "raincover". It doesn't actually cover the buggy, sides, babies legs or the canopy (which leaks). It doesn't even protect from light showers. I am on the internet this evening trying desperately to try and find any raincover that will actually protect my baby from the rain. I just can't wait for the winter when the cosy leg warmer part will get soaked. What an absolute waste of money and I would never ever recommend to anyone. My advice would be: "do not buy it, even at half the price"
