About this deal

Some mums, skilled in tailoring, put the original hood down and we a new one from a different fabric, replicating the original one. Suitable from birth, it fits in the car, umbrella folds so it doesn’t take up the whole hallway, it’s comfortable for even the sturdiest three and a half year old. The Techno has one of the most extensive canopies in the review, and it is on par with those usually only found on full-size strollers. The seat is so lightly padded that I had to glue a piece of foam onto the rear of the seat as you can feel the frame through the seat.

For those who need the extra storage, the Techno XT does also feature two decently sized pockets in the back of the stroller (with a maximum weight of 1. While this stroller may have some easy-to-use features, overall, it disappointed with the second-lowest weight and folded size score, a convoluted and challenging harness and buckle, and a poor score for maneuverability. And completely agree re not getting another once baby older - quite why you would want the faff and issue of storing/selling a second buggy beats me. The integrated head hugger and shoulder pads on the Maclaren Techno XT make your child more comfortable and safe at any age. Are there are other major differences between the two and do any of you have a pronounced preference for one model or the other?As the Techno XT has two non-extendable handles you do need to use both when steering, it is not a one-hand affair by any stretch. The pouch at the back has been useful to put bits and bobs and I really like being able to check on my child through the transparent plastic window in hood. Once folded it can be cumbersome to lift as it only has a lock clip on one side, so it almost feels like it's going to unfold when you lift it up. com Limited, registered in England and Wales with number 03934849, 27 Old Gloucester Street, London, WC1N 3AX, United Kingdom.

Its a shame as the seat fabric has only shown sighs of wear on the reflective trim, I have contacted maclaren for a new set of rear wheels but told the axel has been upgraded and would be costly to replace. Using the knowledge he garnered while inventing the Supermarine Spitfire undercarriage, he took lightweight, collapsible aluminium tube structures and made the world's first lightweight umbrella fold buggy. All of our parent testers rated the Maclaren Techno XT’s quality and ease of use as good or very good, and all were left somewhat to very satisfied.

In weather that requires extra coverage, just unzip the top of the canopy to extend it and it will almost completely cover your child. The patented design has remained essentially unchanged today, and Maclaren was honored by the Queen as a Member of the British Empire. It's great getting some input from sensible people, my DP's only response has been 'can we have a cool one, you know with all terrain wheels'. Wheels and handle grips are high-wear items that can be easily replaced to extend the life of the buggy.

It also is hard to undo the harness as you have to push both the front and back together but once you have the knack it gets easier but this does mean that it would be impossible for a child to get themselves free which is a good thing. I bought my Maclaren Techno XT Umbrella Stroller when my daughter was about 5 months old and wish I had bought it from birth. The hood design on the Macleren Techno XT features air vents when it’s fully open, plus it has a larger viewing window. The Techno XT is a nice lightweight option for toddlers especially, as it is spacious, however it is not really suitable as a travel stroller, especially for planes.

Did I mention how thrilled I am to see it takes up half the boot space of our previously lovely but bulky pram! Before each use, please show your child where they should hold onto the pushchair or Saddle to avoid any fingertraps that may be accessible at the back of your pushchair. The adjustable handle height was great for my 6" 4 husband and I liked the lay flat position so my daughter felt she was flat like she would be in her cot which was a god send when we were on holiday as she would sleep anywhere even though there was a lot going on around her.
