Maclaren Triumph Stroller- Coffee/Blue Sky

Comments about Maclaren Triumph Stroller- Coffee/Blue Sky:

I keep this stroller in my car, so it's always ready when we need it.
We've taken it to parks, around town, on busses, in the airport, and it's been great in all these situations. It pushes fine on the grass, but not so well on gravel (to be expected).

I've NEVER had any problem with the recall issues. My fingers are no where near those joints when the stroller is closing, and my daughter also stands back, so it's not a problem.

We've been using the stroller since she was 7 months old (fyi: she's on the small side for weight, now 17 months, 20 lbs), and it's great for her. She sleeps ok, although the recline is not that deep.

That brings me to the two negatives:
1. the recline is shallow.
2. the wheels, when the stroller is folded, make the sun shade dirty. I can deal with this.

If I had it to do again, I might buy one step up from the Triumph in order to get the leg support and a slightly deeper recline. But I love the fact that it's lightweight, can always stay in the back of my car, and my daughter seems happy in it. Oh, and the steering is great. Even my husband likes it!

Perhaps the problem with this stroller is that it isn't my Bob which I love. The controls are jerky and the seat has little depth and no place for a child to put their feet. If it didn't have the brand name on it, it would sell for $50. It's very expensive for the value received.

After months of comparison, we finally decided on this stroller. I wanted something really lightweight for our new baby with a good brand name(maybe I wouldn't get as much stroller envy as I did with my daughter!). I know it says not to use the stroller until the baby is older but we had my son in it at 2 weeks old(with the kiddpotomus snuzzler to support his body)and he slept for four hours straight. I just couldn't see the point in switching our strollers every couple months the way we do with carseats. So far so good!

Before the news about this stroller amputating childrens fingers, I would have told everyone to buy this stroller...The stroller is very light, its convenient and its stylish...However, I myself got my fingers caught in the hinge several times while opening the stroller...I never thought my childs fingers would or could get caught...I think if you get the cover for it, the stroller is fine...This particular one is not that great for comfort...My daughter is a year old and likes to lean forward, there isnt a place for her legs to rest comfortably like the other model Maclarrens...Its ok, just be careful of your childrens fingers!

This is a good travel stroller and to keep in your trunk for short trips. My daughter likes it, is comfortable and often falls asleep in it. The stroller is very easy to push, but can tip over if you hang things like your purse, on the handles so just be careful. The basket below is hard to get to but if you are doing short trips you might not really need it. Very easy to get in and out of the trunk and to set up and collapse.

A girlfriend of mine raved about this stroller. I complained about the price and did alot of searching before deciding to spend the money for this stroller. I am glad I got it. It is lighter and takes up less space than my travel system. I am tall and so the handles work well for me compared to some of the other brands. Luckily I read other reviews and have avoided (so far) the "tip over". I could use a larger sun shade but overall it's an awesome product and I plan to use it for a LONG TIME!

I love this thing. My daughter went to sleep in it the first time I REALLY pushed her around in it-- and this was over all sorts of gravel, curbs, bumps-- generally because I decided to walk somewhere (my car was in the shop) that wasn't paved for pedestrians. It's all very agile, so when I had to push across the street as fast as lightning (so as not to be hit in the ped-unfriendly place we were then navigating) we really moved. I'm very happy with it.

I bought this stroller for my 2 years old baby girl
because we broke our old one (chicco Capri, kept 1 year and half but a good product too) and she loves it so far!!
I heard so many things too about macclaren and i wanted to give a try..we'll see but I'm already quite conquise!!
it seems very confy and sturdy!!love the design
The colors are great and perfect blue (not lavand..;-) if it's a girl or a boy..(thinking of baby n#2)
the basket is enough big to stock 2/3 bags (and even a baby stroller..;-)..and adding the organizer will give more storage

the ONLY PROBLEM that I have with this stroller is you can't handle something on it or it will fall....:-((( and a bit heavy compare to my old one..
with my old one --lighter--doesn't happen so easily..;-)
I will recommand this stroller AND YOU HAVE NOTHING TO DO, it's already put together in the package!!!

I bought this stroller when my daughter (we have the pink and gray one) was 4 months old. Overall, i love this stroller! I have a Graco Quattro Tour that i rarely use because of the convenience of my Maclaren. Even on trips to the mall and zoo i use the Maclaren while the big bulky Graco stroller sits in the trunk.

Pros: LOVE the shoulder strap for carrying, it's genious! My daughter (10 months) will sit comfortably in this stroller for hours, on walks, at the zoo, etc. She loves sitting so upright, and being able to see everything. It's so lightweight and easy to fold up. Manuevers great, even over bumpy rocks and grass. It reclines, unlike a lot of umbrella stroller out there.

Cons: The stroller DOES top over if you have anything hanging over the handles when you take your baby out. I avoided this by buying an organizer and putting my purse in the basket below. Also, the basket is very small, but most umbrella strollers don't even have a basket. No cup holder, but the organizer that i bought has one, so now it's perfect.

I use this 9 times out of 10 over my full size Graco stroller, so the few cons are not enough to keep me from using it...and loving it!
