The bikes you list are all fine. I disagree about "bad" suspension forks, I think the usual Suntour fork is good enough for this kind of bike and does provide a benefit. This is not the prevailing view on Bike Forums, though, in spite of the fact they seem to sell just fine.
Canyon makes a really nice hybrid with a better fork (and everything else) for $1100 US. But for that kind of price, I picked a proper MTB on my last purchase instead. I'm pretty happy with it.
