Are you looking for a great looking lightweight, highly maneuverable, stroller that has unparalleled high quality? Are you are looking for a stroller that comes with a lifetime warrantee? If you are looking for this kind of stroller, then look no further. The Maclaren Quest Mod stroller comes in many fashionable colors and patterns, it’s built with aircraft-quality aluminum and it weighs less than 13 lbs.
Maclaren, a stroller manufacturer from England has been building strollers for appreciative parents for over 40 years. Owen Maclaren, the founder of the company actually invented the first lightweight foldable stroller. Maclaren strollers are known for their high quality, lightweight products.
There are two Quest stroller models: Quest Sport and Quest Mod. Both of the strollers are packed full of features that normally don’t come with umbrella strollers. The key differences between these two strollers are the materials and the color options.
The Quest Mod stroller weighs less than 13 pounds, it offers great maneuverability and it’s easy to fold, carry, store and transport. The big difference between the Quest stroller and other umbrella strollers, aside from Maclaren’s high quality, is an extensive feature set that includes: a reclining, padded, seat, a height adjustable leg rest, a removable & washable seat cover and a large canopy with viewing window.
Key Features
The Quest stroller is highly maneuverable. In addition to being ultra lightweight, the Quest stroller has front swivel wheels that literally lets you turn on a dime. The Quest stroller is less than 19’ wide so it’s quite easy for parents to maneuver their little one throughout stores and crowds.
The Quest Mod stroller folds with one hand – you simply unlock the frame by kicking a safety latch, you step down on a lever and you lift the stroller with its carry strap… Your stroller is now securely closed in its folded position. To open the Quest Mod stroller you simply unclip the locking mechanism and lift the handles up.
The Quest Mod stroller now has a longer / larger canopy that provides extra protection for your little one. The round shaped canopy, that now features a storage pocket, has a UV protective viewing window so you can keep an eye on your child. Maclaren also incorporates reflective material into their strollers so you can be seen while stroller after dark.
When you combine the quest stroller’s padded reclining seat, the adjustable leg rest and padded 5-point harness you get a stroller that is incredibly comfortable for your little one.
