Maclaren Quest Stroller #Tots2Toddlers

By

Note: The following giveaway is open to US/Canadian residents.

There are few products that symbolize your transition from #Tots2Toddlers as well as the umbrella stroller. It’s a badge of honour; it screams “Hurray! My kid is no longer breakable and I can toss the heavy travel system!”

Of course, you could go with a generic, flimsy stroller from your nearest big retailer, but ahem – good luck with that. Chances are, your bouncy, energetic toddler will have the thing warped, manhandled and will be using it to push dollies faster than you can say “Should have bought a Maclaren”.

And that brings me to the Maclaren Quest stroller, affectionately dubbed the “Cadillac of umbrella strollers”. Yes, it’s lightweight, employs an über-compact fold and is perfect for travel, but did you know:

RECLINE – The Quest features a 4-position seat recline plus extendable leg rest which makes the stroller suitable from birth all the way up to 55lbs.

SAFETY & DESIGN – The 5-point safety harness is snug and secures your child comfortably; the stroller manoeuvres like a dream and is equally easy to push a 1-year old or a 3-year old.

HOOD – Longer for extra coverage; it features a UV protective viewing window and reflective accents for night safety. The hood folds back freely and is very easily removed, if desired.

CONVENIENCE – The Quest is nice and narrow and folds super-compact (less than 10 inches high). Although it’s very lightweight (just 12 lbs) it feels very sturdy and the quality of craftsmanship is visible at every turn.

Umbrella stroller? We like to call it “Happy Baby Transport“.


The Maclaren Quest  designed for on-the-go parents that need a stroller that can keep up with them.  All Maclaren buggies include the Sovereign Lifetime Warranty and are phthalate and lead free.

    Favourite feature? It has to be the five-second one hand fold and the removable washable seat is a bonus.
    Does that cute kid come with it? lol.

  6. Sarah

    I love that it looks wide enough to be comfortable. My biggest pet peeve with umbrella strollers is that the kid always looks squished.

  14. Andrea H

    5 second one handed fold! we use our stroller so often that it’s now so important to me how quickly and easily they can fold!

  18. Adriana Fitzgerald

    My fave feature is the Removable, washable seat – very handy because my kids are MESSY!

  28. Fab Frugal Mama

    I love the one-hand fold… a *must* for every mama on the go! Thanks for the great contest! :)

  29. Stefanie F

    I love the 4 reclining seat positions and removable washable seat!! Defiantly a must for a toddler !!

  41. Nadia Lo Greco

    This stroller would be perfect for Simona! She is hating strollers these days but loves umrella strollers for some reason…maybe as she feels they aren’t as confined.

  42. Debbie Kolysher

    Would love to win this for my 4 month old baby Harper Ruby! My favourite feature is how sturdy, yet compact it looks – would be perfect for this busy, on the go mom!

  48. Nadia Lo Greco

    I would love this for my 16 month old Simona as she hates regular strollers but loves umbrella strollers. I love that it has 4 recline positions!!

  58. Karla Sceviour

    My favorite feature is the 4 reclining seat positions.

  61. Nat

    I love how comfortable and practical this stroller this umbrella stroller looks compared to other umbrella strollers

  65. Eva U

    Safety Conscious Mom – so first focused on two elements – the Handles and the Wheels. Both look sturdy and well constructed. Must say that impresses me.

    My favorite feature is the longer hood, I don’t like when I’m walking towards the sun and it’s on my daughter’s face.

  67. Cheryl Morreale (@loucheryl)

    I really like the 4 reclining seat position feature. That could be very handy when the baby wants to lay flat to sleep!

  71. Kelli A.

    My fav feature would have to be the removable and washable seat! Great idea for keeping it looking good, I wish all strollers had that feature.

  79. amy pugmire

    I like the Quest features a 4-position seat recline plus extendable leg rest which makes the stroller suitable from birth all the way up to 55lbs.

  81. Mandi Mercredi

    I love that you can fold it with one hand my stoller right now has a list of things you need to do before it will fold into a compact stroller as the makers of the stroller say. It really only squishes slightly after completing the puzzle to fold it.

  90. Miranda Welle

    I definitely LOVE the fact that there is a recline! (Not to mention 4 POSITIONS!) This is one feature that gets lost o a lot of umbrella strollers.

  111. Janice K.

    I have a preloved McLarens Volo (base model stroller) and it’s my quick errand stroller. I’d love this one as it has every feature mine doesn’t…and mines pretty beat up.

  113. Laura Jacobson

    Oh…its all so great….love the easy quick fold the most! But..also love the seat positions!

  115. Stephanie V.

    Ergonomic foam insulated handles
    My last stroller hurt my hands when used for a long day

  128. Charity Hill

    Love the 5-point harness, the extra large hood, the 4 reclining seat positions…I could go on!

    How is it for height? (most I find are way to short and you have to hunch over to push)

  135. Maegan Morin

    I really like the fact that it has 4 seat positions. I find that my daughter lays to far back in the stroller we have now and there isnt much that we can do about that. I also like that the top is water proof (we get random rain showers) and the fact that the swivel wheels lock. I fight with the swivel wheels all the time in our stroller that we have now

  139. Kimberly

    I like the carry strap. It’s a nice feature for carrying the stroller when it’s not in use.

  147. Jackie

    Just one? I think the on handed 5 second fold (followed closely by the compact umbrella fold when you’re done!)

  149. Melissa J.

    I love the convenience of the stroller.. from it’s lightweight to the one hand fold. Sounds like it will work well in my trunk!

  151. nancy

    I love that it is compact ,it has the 5-second 1-hand fold feature and that it has a removable washable seat!!!GREAT stroller (: Thanks for the chance!!!

  159. Amanda Pfeifer

    I love the higher weight limit on it! I have a 3 yr old that is almost to heavy for most stollers, besides the joggers, and this would be great for long walks!

  163. Nicole P.

    I love the over-sized hood! Most of our strollers have a hood on them that is not very functional in the elements, etc. I think this would be great!

  165. Jennifer E.

    I love that McLaren Strollers are so lightweight and easy to fold. Great for getting in and out of a car trunk!

  177. Karen Scott

    I love that it goes up to 55 lbs and is roomier than the cheap umbrella strollers. My almost 2 year old is 30 lbs and does not fit in the cheap version!

  192. Shirley Smith

    my favorite feature is the 5 second one hand fold for sure. Especially when you holding baby with one arm.

  193. Rebaecca

    I honestly love Everything about this stroller so it’s hard to pick a favorite thing but I’ll say the 4point reclining positions would be a plus for my little guy!

  199. Kris Garvey

    Love that it has 4 reclining seat positions, and also that you can close it with one hand!

  200. Lisa Marie Anctil

    I love that the seat is easily washable! I would loooove to give this to my friend as a baby shower gift!! She really deserves something this beautiful!

  201. Heather Tarver

    I love that you can use it from birth to 55lbs, so much less hassle than having to buy new strollers as they get older!

  202. mona

    love that it has 4 reclining positions…most umbrella strollers don’t recline at all!

    • Sophie Beaulieu

      lol i mean the fact that there is no cup holder, taking place for nothing. I like better the confort of the 4 inclined positions :)

  213. jackie sickels

    My favorite feature is the weight! I also love that babies to older kids can sit in it!

  216. Jesse Gonzalez

    I would have to say I like the the way it has the 5 second 1-hand fold. A father to be (baby due July 25th) and would love to win this for my family! :-)

  219. Kari

    It is so hard to take my son anywhere because he like to be able to see but I still need the room to put stuff and this looks like the perfect solution!! would love to win this!!

  237. Pamela Goldman

    I love the 4 point reclining positions, the one hand fold, how cute it is, etc…

  239. Nickie Wibirt

    The peekaboo window is so rare on an umbrella stroller…and who doesn’t want to take a quick peek at their little one now and then when walking about?!

  246. abrennan

    I like that it has that UV protected viewing window on the hood – you always want to know what’s going on down there.

  249. InezbyDesign

    I love the compact aspect and also that you can remove the seat for cleaning

  250. Charlene G

    I like how easy it is to fold up, could really use a new stroller. Thanks for the chance to win.

  262. ginette4

    I really like the quick one handed fold and the seat that can be removed to wash it

  268. nathania h

    I LOVE the 4 reclining sweat positions!!! how handy
    nathania.a at gmail dot com

  269. Tamar

    I like that this has reclining seat positions. The current stroller I have doesn’t really recline and that’s the feature we hate about it.

  270. Michelle P

    I love that the stroller hood has a UV protective viewing window. Perfect for summer.

  289. Laurie Emerson

    I love the removable, washable seat. This makes it so easy to clean the seat!

  292. Jack Davis

    SAFETY & DESIGN – The 5-point safety harness is snug and secures your child comfortably; the stroller manoeuvres like a dream and is equally easy to push a 1-year old or a 3-year old.

  296. Pamela

    How to pick just one feature? One hand fold and the removeable washable seat are my top two features!

  300. Nicole Vijayasingham

    Love everything about this stroller!! Mine broke a couple of months ago and it has been brutal without one. I think all the features on the mclaren are amazing especially the recline which is great for those naps at the mall! Hope I win…will keep my fingers crossed.

  301. Sabrina

    4 point reclining for sure! Having just travelled with a toddler and baby have a reclining stroller saved us many early nights in! Our little one would fall asleep and we would recline her into laying position and VOILA we were able to stay out! Unfortunately we only borrowed one so winning this would save me from having to purchase!!

  303. Betty C

    My favorite feature is the seat recline plus extendable leg rest. Makes it so easy for the little ones to nap.

  304. Kellie Conklin

    I love a lot of the features, but the convenient, easy to store umbrella fold has to be one of my favorites! I love when a stroller is easy to fold, store and transport! Thanks for the giveaway!
