I recently purchased this stroller for my 14 month old son, and I love it. We have a Bugaboo Chameleon as well as a Bugaboo Bee, and we weren't using either of the strollers much. I was slinging my son most of the time, and my husband wanted a stroller that he could easily use. The Chameleon was great, but just to big and bulky when walking out in the city, and the Bee was just too awkward of a fold to really take anywhere with us. So we decided to get the Maclaren Quest and it's been a dream. My son can easily fall asleep in the stroller, the fold is easy and intuitive, and the maneuverability is good. The sun canopy is a little small, but that is easily rectified with the purchase of a sunshade stroller cover. He doesn't complain when we put him in the stroller (I think he's spoiled by all the slinging, but he's getting used to the stroller now) and he is perfectly content to sit there and watch the world go by. The undercarriage storage is small, and inconvenient when you have something in the basket and want to fold the stroller up (like when you are out shopping and go on the bus of subway), but as long as you don't use the basket in those situations, it's a non issue. I really like the ease of use and the lightweight frame, and would recommend this stroller to any parent out there. Oh, for stats my son is about 25 inches and 23 pounds, and he has plenty of room to wriggle around in the seat.
