A Gift For My Future Grandson

Thank You Graco!

I have come to the end of my time as a Graco Ambassador.  Freddy is now three and uses his Graco UGo stroller when he is tired, but other than that, his need for nursery equipment is pretty much over.

However, my eldest son Joe and his fiance Jade are expecting their first child in December.  As with most young couples these days, money is tight and so they are grateful for any help they can get.  They were thrilled to bits when I was able to get them a Graco Quattro Tour Deluxe Travel System courtesy of Graco as my last ambassador's review product.

The Graco Quattro was the first pushchair we ever bought for Freddy and we loved it.  Even as we begun to review other buggies, we always kept a soft spot for the Quattro.  It was so spacious, sturdy, comfortable and practical.  It didn't need fancy features or gimmicks because it was a good solid travel system that never let us down.  It was good for walking on all surfaces with good steering and a big shopping basket.  The car seat fitted into the buggy making it a very practical and easy to use travel system.  This is why we thought it would be a perfect travel system for our future grandson.

The Graco Quattro Tour Deluxe is now available in black which looks really smart.  My son will be happy pushing this around with his baby son inside.  He would feel embarrassed by a brightly coloured, funkily designed pushchair!  It is a great value travel system too, retailing at around the £300 mark.

I can't wait to post photos of my baby grandson in his pushchair once he arrives.  As he will also inherit all of Freddy's outgrown nursery equipment, I'm sure we will be adding quite a few new pictures to our Graco Gallery!!
