Maclaren Techno XLR Buggy Stroller Charcoal and Burnt Orange

This is the top-of-the-line stroller by Maclaren. It's light yet sturdy, easy to use and maneuver, and fold and store. The quality of the materials used are top-notch. More importantly, the seat and harness are well padded and very comfortable and safe for the baby. It's also compatible with several infant car seats.

before buying a stroller I did a lot of research, I did not want to be one of those moms that go through 5 strollers before they find the right one, this and most MacLaren strollers seemed to have very good reviews from other parents so I decided to give it a try since it came with a money back guarantee if I wasn't satisfied. I love it! I take my son to the mall and we can breeze by between the ailes where moms with the so popular Graco's can't, my son definitely seems very confortable, it comes with an extension so you can use it with an infant seat ( I had Graco Snugride). My son's nanny claims it's the best stroller she has ever seen/used (she's seen plenty as she's been nanny/mother/grandma for a few decades) and I've actually received compliments on it so I guess that means it's stylish looking. If you're tall you'll love it since the handle bars extend to accomodate taller people. After a year I have not found a bad thing about this stroller and it's still in great shape...will definitely be used by baby #2. Light enough for this 5 ft. 110 lb. mom to take out of car and set up with one hand. It does not have a bottle/cup holder for mom but I bought a $5 clip on holder that works great.

This stroller is wonderful. We had a Graco (which I absolutely hated) and a Maclaren Volo which was great...it steered like a dream...but which had a few problems; no raincover, skimpy sun canopy, no recline, no seat padding, and I thought it sat a bit too low to the ground. The Techno XLR solves all of these problems while not sacrificing greatly on weight or bulk. The canopy is generous (it upzips for even more coverage than in the photo), it includes a raincover which is a snap to put on in seconds, it reclines almost flat (my 10 month old slept in it for a full two hours on one trip) and it's a little taller and wider than other maclarens so my baby has a bit more room and doesn't sit so low to the ground. The padding for the seat is thick and seems very comfortable. It's lightweight compared to other strollers with comparable features, and it folds and unfolds with one hand. I've been able to take it out of the trunk and unfold it while holding a sleeping baby and without waking him up! I haven't tried it on buses or trains yet, but it did take it on a trip to the Caribbean and it was easy to fold at the gate for gate checking.
A big plus is that it is stylish, lots of great color combos (I have the grey and orange) with none of those horrid pastel baby colours and prints that other stroller manufacturers seem to favour. Another big plus is that it comes already assembled, just take it out of the box and go.
