Maclaren Triumph Stroller Review-Giveaway!

I can’t even begin to tell you how excited I am to be working with Maclaren on a stroller review-giveaway. When I was first registering for my daughter and was asking all of my mom friends for suggestions on a good stroller, they all would recommended Maclaren. I would say about 9/10 recommended Maclaren without even hesitating. So, I followed all of their suggestions and purchased the Maclaren Quest. I truly love it to this day! It is awesome and we take it everywhere with us.

Now that Zane is around the age where he is beginning to finally sit in the stroller, I was grateful to have received the Maclaren Triumph for review. Actually Hayley saw the stroller and she instantly claimed it, so now Zane is in the Quest and Hayley has the brand new Maclaren Triumph. I have to say, I absolutely have zero complaints with the Maclaren Triumph- it is an amazing stroller with so many wonderful features. If you are looking for a great stroller that is lightweight and equally comfortable, the Maclaren Triumph is for you!

The Maclaren Triumph is your all purpose, go fast stroller for everyday use. It is extremely lightweight coming in at only 11.5 lbs. and is incredibly easy to fold up when you are done using. It fits perfectly even in the smallest trunks of cars. The Macalaren Triumph is a dependable stroller to take with you wherever you go. It is a suitable stroller from 6 months of age to as long as your children will sit in a stroller. Hayley is 4 and still going strong in the Maclaren Triumph. I don’t see her giving it up anytime soon- hey, I would love if someone strolled me around in a uber-comfortable stroller!

There are so many features I love when talking about the Maclaren Triumph. One of the main features that really struck me was the multi position recline. It has an easily adjustable strap recline system that provides various positions that your children can sit in.  While Hayley no longer sleeps in a stroller, sometimes she likes to just relax in a reclined position. With the Triumph, I can easily it adjust it from sitting to reclining position with one hand. I also love that I can fold the stroller with one hand in around 5 seconds. It took me a second or two to figure out as it is slightly different than the Quest, but once I did, I realized how easy it truly was.

I also love the ergonomic foam grips handles which are at a comfortable height so I can steer the kids with no problems. I know there are handle covers out there for strollers but with any of the Maclaren strollers, you will not need this. They already have built in foam grips for your comfort needs. The Maclaren Triumph also has 4.5 ‘ dual swivel wheels which makes for a very smooth ride. I have zero problems maneuvering this stroller even through some roads that have heavy curves. It just moves so smoothly. It also comes with foot operated parking brakes which is a huge plus when I need to put the brakes on the stroller, when I have to get the other child out of the car and one is already in the stroller.

Lastly, it has a complete water-resistant hood, shopping basket, and cover for the rain/sun that is included with the Maclaren Triumph. It is very portable and has an easy carrying strap for convenience. I also feel very comfortable knowing that my children are in the 5 point harness, with adjustable shoulder straps, so they can’t escape when they are properly buckled in.

The Maclaren Triump is an absolutely wonderful stroller! If you are on the lookout for a new stroller, look no further than the Maclaren Triumph. It is available in 5 different colors and is sold all over the country including Babies R’ Us, Amazon, Toys R’ Us, Diapers.com, and on the Maclaren website for $185.00.

  7. Michelle R. says

    Just sold my double stroller, and could still use a single for long days with my 4 year old.

  10. Molly says

    Looks like a great stroller, wish it had been around when mine were little. I’ll definitely keep it in mind though for friends and family with little ones. Thanks for the great review!

  18. Amber Edwards says

    I need this stroller! Oh my goodness, it’s like my “Cadillac” stroller but much more compact! But I have to admit the most tempting option for me is that it’s a compact stroller with handle bars at a comfortable height! No more bending in uncomfortable angles to push the tiny umbrella stroller around!

  19. Sarah says

    Two things I really like are the included rain cover (hello random FL rain!) and that it can also be folded with just one hand.

  22. Romina says

    We so need one of these for an upcoming trip out of the country. Our current one is lightweight, but a bit bulky. I think this will be nice and compact enough since we will be island hopping and using various modes of transportation.

  29. Cassandra Eastman says

    I love the ergonomic foam grips handles but my favorite is that you can seriously fold it in 5 seconds! That would be awesome!

  35. Laura B says

    I like that it is not an overly huge bulky stroller, but it still has lots of good features, like the recline!

  37. Nikki M says

    My favorite feature from your review is “I also love that I can fold the stroller with one hand in around 5 seconds”. I am usually holding the little guy in the other hand so this is very important to me.

  39. Yesenia says

    Compact, lightweight and dependable are the most important features for me, especially with space being an issue for us.

  44. D Schmidt says

    The handle height is my favorite feature from your review, I am tall so this is always something I am looking for in a stroller

  45. D Schmidt says

    The handle height is my favorite feature from your review, I am tall so this is always something I am looking for in a stroller. Thanks for the information!

  46. Rebecca says

    Love that it has four 4.5 ‘ dual swivel wheels which makes for a very smooth ride.
    I have pushed some strollers that I wanted to pitch because they were hard to push.

  54. Sandy says

    I like the 5 point harness – it seems safer to me! I also like that it is lightweight!

  56. Allyson Bossie says

    That looks like a great lightweight compact stroller I always loved when mine were into a lighter weight stroller because they can be so bulky to lug around

  60. Erin R. says

    I really like the idea of how smooth it is, I would love to have this to see for myself! It would love to try this out for my son.

  65. Amy L. Norman says

    I love the lightweight, ease of maneuverability, as well as the one-hand folding mechanism.

  67. Theresa M says

    I like many of the features you tell us about this stroller. But I think the most important thing is the comfort of the child. I like that it provides multi position recline. If my child isn’t comfortable they won’t want to stay in the stroller when we go somewhere. So then I am carrying not only my child but the stroller.

  73. Molly Bussler says

    Lightweight, there’s nothing more dreading than carrying a heavy stroller with a child, and trying to fold it up.

  86. Melissa K says

    I love that it only weighs 11.5 pounds and looks like an umbrella stroller but has features such as varied reclines!

  87. Samantha says

    I love how lightweight it is! You never realize how much that matters until you are lugging around your baby and all the stuff you need for them 🙂

  98. Leslie G. says

    I love that you can easily fold it down with one hand… this is so important!!

  108. Kerrie Mayans says

    I like that it is easy to fold. Our current stroller take two hands and at least 5 minutes to fold it up and get it all clipped down so it won’t unfold.

  109. Shae J. says

    I love that it’s got some good, sturdy swivel wheels. That’s one of the most important things to me when I’m purchasing a stroller.

  116. Milly B says

    I like that it is lightweight and easy to fold. I used to have a HUGE and heavy stroller and I hated it so much.

  133. Karen Dorris says

    Love the easy swivel…..and range. Also like that you can change positions and is great for child larger than an infant!!

  138. carol says

    I love that it is lightweight and you only need one hand to close. Also the foot operating brake is easy

  160. Heather Raineyfree says

    ergonomic foam grips handles which are at a comfortable height so I can steer the kids with no problems.

  165. Stephanie L. says

    I love that it’s lightweight. The one we have now is so huge I can barely lift is back into the car.

  167. Faith Bosnick says

    My favorite feature is that it is lightweight. I also like that it can be closed with one hand! That makes it simple when you have other little ones running around! 🙂

  177. Taryn Pasco says

    I love that you said this stroller is super easy to fold up! I always looked like a fool with my daughters stroller, struggling to get it to close up! Lol. This would be perfect for my little boy i’m having in February! 🙂

  187. Kortney Picker says

    I love the ergonomic foam grips handles, they look so comfortable to push the kids around!

  199. Kim says

    i love that it has a basket. My current compact stroller has no basket and it was the worst choice on my part to get it.

  202. Heather Wone says

    I love that is as numerous recline positions! The current stroller we use reclines so far back! Whenever my son falls asleep in it, when i go to recline it he always wakes right up lol!

  205. Amanda J says

    I love that it is light weight but still reclines, unlike a cheap umbrella stoller. Our Britax was recently stolen so we are without a stroller, would be great to win this!

  207. Virginia Rogers says

    There are so many wonderful features to love, like the fact that it is waterproof, lightweight, and has the ergonomic foam grips handles. Would be perfect for my new grandchild!! Thank you so much for the chance to win!!

  225. Amie Olson says

    My favorite feature is the five point harness with adjustable straps. This stroller looks easy to use. We had a similar one, but it was stolen. so, this would be a perfect stroller to win!

  228. Ross Olson says

    I really like that it is lightweight, durable, and has several reclining positions. Ross Olson

  247. Debra S says

    The handles, the soft grip, high enough for comfortable pushing.. HOW many strollers do I end up wanting to toss to the side, because they are so low, your back aches?

  266. Ellen says

    I’d love to win this for my baby boy. He’s the 3rd, and I think we need a new single stroller. =)

  267. Kelsey White says

    Multiple recline positions and height of handles. Nothing worse than the strollers you have to bend over to push!

  268. ariana says

    I like that you can fold the stroller with one hand so quickly! not the case with the jogger and other umbrella that i have right now…

  269. Jocelyn says

    I love that its so compact and that it has a decent sized basket under it. All of the compact strollers I have had either have small baskets or no baskets.

  272. Lisa Honickel says

    Love that it is lightweight and small. With 4 boys, I dont have room for a bulky stroller!

  276. Tiffany says

    My favorite part of your review was It is very portable and has an easy carrying strap for convenience. I had a McClaren for my first child and absolutely loved it!

  277. Dana says

    I love the ergonomic foam grips handles. My hands get so sore pushing around a cheap stroller all day!

  282. Tricia says

    Love that it reclines! Didn’t know any of the compact strollers did that! Also love your daughters name, which happens to be the same as mine:)

  287. Kim says

    I think the 11.5 lb weight feature of this is great. I hate lugging heavy strollers in and out of the car. This is light and has all the needed features of a bigger, heavier stroller.

  298. chelsey says

    I love this all around but it i had to pick just a few of my favorites i would say def the weight! and how you can fold with one hand. “amazing” also really like the look of it!!

  304. Dawn Davenport says

    I love that it is lightweight and that the back reclines. Most strollers like this only have one position for the back.

  305. Romaine says

    I love the reclining feature and could really use the stroller as our previous one got stolen!:(( i hope me and my baby win!:)

  306. Mandi says

    Lightweight & reclining mode! It will be great for our baby girl to have a nice ride while her 3 siblings run circles around her (they’ll be so excited!). : )

  307. Kali says

    I love the multi position reclining. 🙂 the basket underneath actually is big enough to hold stuff ad the foam handles. 🙂

  309. michelle france says

    This would be so great for trips to the park, and general outings with the kids! Thanks for the chance to win!

  310. Amy Bucklin says

    I like the canopy and the basket in the back. I also like that it reclined with one hand 🙂

  311. Tara Bumgarner says

    I love the fact that it is lightweight and compact! Two things I must have in a stroller. This would be a perfect win as I am in the market for one for my 10 month old baby girl!! Thank you for your consideration!

  318. Mariam says

    LOVE the multi position recline. There is nothing worse than a baby that has fallen asleep in a regular stroller and looks sooo uncomfortable!

  325. Nichole says

    I love that it’s lightweight. We are a busy family so we need something that can easily go anywhere without much effort!

  333. Laura Chubb says

    Oh how much easier my life would be with this instead of that awful umbrella stroller! With a 16 month old an a newborn..I would put this to good Use..very compact..perfect!

  349. Alicia Shumaker says

    I love how lightweight and compact it is!! It would even fit in my tiny trunk! I hope I win! Thank you!!!!!!

  363. sarah says

    I’d have to go with the compact-ness as my favorite aspect since we have a small car, but I also like the 5 pt harness system. I wish my current stroller had this – so much more secure for smaller babies!

  383. Megan says

    I love how easily you’re able to fold it! 🙂 With multiple kids a easy to use stroller is definitely a must!

  392. Maureen says

    11.5 pounds! We’re currently lugging around a graco stroller that weighs more than my 1 year old!

  393. Lucy says

    I like the fact that it seems lightweight….and you don’t need a degree from Harvard to figure it out! Great gift!!

  402. Dena Custer says

    I LOVE that it is so lightweight at only 11.5 lb! So much nicer than lugging a heavy stroller in and out of my car!

  414. Krista White says

    I love that it’s lightweight and easily folds. So much better than our huge Chicco stroller for the carseat!

  419. Erin says

    I love that it’s so light and easy to fold. I have enough going on without struggling with a heavy stroller.

  422. Rebecca says

    We used to have a Maclaren Twin and they are hands down the best strollers! I’ve many times regretted getting rid of that stroller (even though I no longer need a twin!) These are well worth the money!

  429. tina reynolds says

    easy to fold and compact I get so frustrated with my current stroller it is a pain to fold and often pinches me

  435. Shelly says

    I love that it’s basically an umbrella stroller, but it has some fancier features, like the 5 pt harness, hood, and shopping basket.
