| janineberg's Full Review: Maclaren Twin Traveller - Carbon/Crimson Umbrella ... |
I bought this stroller when I was having my second child. I needed a stroller that I could use for both my infant as well as my two year old. This stroller turned out to be the best investment.
Here's a description of some of the great features of the stroller:
1. The reclining feature is terrific especially for a newborn. I love the fact that it fully reclines...it helps so much when you have a newborn. I have never had a problem reclining the seats like some other reviewers have said. It also allows you to recline in many different positions, not like some other strollers where they only have 2 positions.
2. The handlebars are very comfortable and they are in perfect position for a comfortable stroll. Everybody who has pushed two kids in this stroller can attest to that.
3. I find the stroller to be very lightweight considering it is a double stroller. I had a single stroller travel system with my first child and that one stroller is heavier than this double stroller. It also feels lightweight when pushing 2 kids in it.
4. Opening and closing the stroller is so easy. I have never had any problems opening the stroller. It locks easily and stays locked. The handle on the side of the stroller makes it very easy to put in the back of the car.
5. I think the wheels on the stroller stroll very easily. I have had no trouble turning the stroller and it is very easy to maneuver.
6. The pouches in the back of each seat are great especially to hold accessories. It's a great extra storage space.
Here are some the features of the stroller that could be improved:
1. The baskets in the stroller could be a bigger, but for small baggages it is adequate.
2. The 5 point harness straps are of great quality, but I have found them to be a bit difficult to tighten easily. Especially when my baby was an infant, I found that the straps could not tighten as much as I would have liked.
3. It would be great if the stroller came with trays that you could attach so that a child can eat a snack or play with some toys.
All in all this stroller is a great buy for 2 kids. I would not trade it in for any other. I have friends who have front to back strollers and are very disappointed. I find maclaren strollers to be very well made and of great quality. If you are debating on what stroller to get for 2 kids, please consider this stroller...you won't regret it...it's well worth the price.
