What owners single out
In their words
“We love the Maclaren Quest stroller. We wanted something less bulky for traveling and the first trip assured us we chose correctly! The stroller has made 4 flights and been in 4 states and we are happy to report, it’s awesome. It’s super lightweight. Folds up in a flash. We had plenty of space while at Disneyland for my large bag. It maneuvered through crowds seamlessly. With most lightweights it ”

“Pro: Lightweight Reclines flat Large sun shade Con: Stores vertically awkwardly I got this to have at my house for when we take care of our grandson. It’s light weight, easy to handle, it lays neatly flat. It stores fairly well upright. Needs to lean. I love the large sun shade. It comes with a rain cover that we haven’t used yet. Just took it on a flight and vacation out of town. Was easy enough ”
