Overall, editors and users like the Graco Quattro Tour Deluxe full-featured stroller for its sturdy and safe feel, smooth ride, ample storage and hard-to-find features, such as a basket that can be accessed even when the seat is reclined. However, there are a number of complaints about its relatively heavy 26-pound frame, and many parents say this stroller is quite large when folded. The Graco MetroLite (*Est. $150) has many of the same features and a slimmer, lighter frame (19 inches wide and 17.4 pounds). The Graco Quattro Tour Sport (*Est. $170) is almost identical to the Quattro Tour Deluxe but with a sportier-looking frame.

The best comparison review we found for the Graco Quattro Tour Deluxe stroller is at ConsumerReports.org, where editors test and rate it as part of their latest round of stroller testing. Testing at People.com's Celebrity Baby Blog is informal, but its coverage of the Quattro Tour Deluxe is complete and balanced. We also found some good information in "Baby Bargains," a book focused on buying advice for parents. In addition to these excellent reviews, we found some useful parent-written reviews at Amazon.com.
