Karen  February 2nd, 2010 I started off with a typical travel system stroller, which was great for indoor adventures (ex: shopping) but not so great for walks outside. Next, I bought a jogging stroller, which was the exact opposite--great for outside strolls but definitely not indoor-friendly. Then I bought this Maclaren. I was looking for a compact and light stroller to take with us on a trip. We first took this stroller to the mall for a test run before our trip. It is incredibly easy to unfold/fold and equally easy to navigate with one hand. The basket underneath does not hold as much as our travel system stroller but I would trade that for the ease-of-use any day. Next, we took it for a test run outside and baby seemed quite comfortable and the ride did not seem overly rough. Granted, it won't be as smooth on road and sidewalk surfaces as a jogger, but it was not bad. Overall, I love this stroller and wish I had bought it earlier in baby's life...I would have been much more inclined to take her on trips to the store knowing that there was not nearly as much hassle with this stroller as with the others (no taking the wheels off to fit in the trunk of our car, it is SO LIGHT, etc.)! I LOVE THIS STROLLER!

Andrea  November 2nd, 2009 I'm really pleased with this stroller. My son is very comfortable in this stroller, ie: he rarley cries in it. It's easy to put up and take down and light. I've had it for about a month, so I can't speak to durability but I have pleased thus far.

Rockie's Mom from Aldan, PA  September 22nd, 2009 I love this stroller. It is light and easy to handle rather than the heavy jogger stroller I have. The only thing I don't like about it is that it doesn't recline that much and the hood to protect my daughter from the sun doesn't protect her from much. I definitely think you should purchase the organizer with this. Overall, I love it and wouldn't trade it!

Meg from Hoboken, NJ  September 14th, 2009 This stroller fits the exact need we purchased it for - a lightweight stroller to take our son to/from daycare. He is comfortable and like option to recline him as needed (which is why we opted for Triumph v. Volo). Biggest drawback is the complete ineffectiveness of the canopy - offers no protection from the sun and is so small I have no idea what it's purpose is except to hold the rain cover in place on rainy days! Definitely need to buy the organizer in my experience since any storage space is limited. Overall however, very glad we made the purchase - it is a much better option than our heavier stroller for quick trips in/out of car, collapses fairly easy (not so much at first, but getting easier), like carry option of shoulder trap when he wants to walk and it looks good!

mum of one  November 1st, 2008 very easy for travel purposes etc very lightweight and easy to manouvere one handed....access to shopping basket is limited but cant ask for much more in an umbrella fold...will have to purchase a new one soon as my son would like to sit up in it a bit more and it wont go any further on the silly placed clip on the back of the seat......overall would say its a 8/10

Lisa from NYC  October 28th, 2008 It does exactly what I need it to do- it provides a safe comfortable ride for my baby and gets me on and off the subway and bus easily and quickly. I wish the canopy was larger, but that's a minor problem.

Kathy Wynne from Cleveland, Ohio  August 6th, 2008 We recently took our 5 children on vacation , in our minivan. How great to have the Maclaren Triumph instead of our heavy, bulky Graco. It is lightweight, easy to unfold, and fits in tight spots of an overpacked van.
Our 5 month old daughter, who screams while sitting in her infant car seat, is smiling and cooing while strolling around in her new stroller! The recline position isn't a full recline, but better than most umbrellas.
The babyearth company was wonderful for the purchase of this product. The wrong color Maclaren was shipped and they promptly reshipped the correct color in time for us to leave for our trip!

Teresa from Texas  July 24th, 2008 We purchased this stroller for travel and it has been great in that regard. We have a larger stroller with more bells and whistles that I love as well and we use as the workhorse, but it proved heavy for travel as we found out after one trip. This stroller is lightweight, folds easily, easy to push and even maneuver with one hand while carrying a bag in the other. I do wish it would recline further (and the recline is accomplished via an adjustable horizontal support strap which needs two hands to set to the prefered level) but since it is an umbrella stroller, I think it still reclines more than others. So far my 8 month old likes it except when he gets sleepy as he is more limited in his ability to get comfy for sleeping. It is a bit pricey but overall a good investment.

Laura  May 19th, 2008 We've been really happy with the Maclarem Stroller. I have to admith the first time we tried to fold it up wasn't easy, but once I figured to trick out, it's been fine. I think the more opening and closing of it, the easier it will get. We really like the compact size and lightweight. Our 4 month old son seems to really enjoy it. And we figured our 4 year old daughter can use it too since it goes up to 55lbs.
