Maclaren Triumph Stroller Review Summary

The Maclaren Triumph Stroller is a lightweight baby stroller that satisfies most users with a few glitches here and there. Being a Maclaren Stroller the Triumph is described as “durable, compact and easy to handle.” The Maclaren Triumph steers wonderfully and works great for traveling. Not only does the Maclaren Triumph offer one handed folding, but “many more features than nearly any other umbrella type stroller.” On top of being loaded with features, the Maclaren Triumph also offers ample padding and comfort for baby. Says one mom “[my baby] was content in the Maclaren from the moment she got into it.” What explains some of these low ratings? Though the Maclaren Triumph is easy to carry since it is so lightweight, this same feature causes the stroller to easily tip over. In addition, the sunshade that is provided doesn't seem to work very well. Overall though, reviewers state that “although the [Maclaren Triumph] is pricey, it is worth the expense.” Make your own comparison by reading more reviews of lightweight baby strollers here on Viewpoints.

The Maclaren Triumph Strolleris a lightweight (weighs 11 lbs) and has a strap so that you can carry it over your shoulder after you have folded it up in the compact umbrella fold. It is easy to fold with one hand.  The stroller has a mesh bag for storage, water resistant hood, aluminum frame, foot...

I purchased this stroller from Babies R Us thinking that it would be a great lightweight stroller instead of that heavy travel system. I first noticed that I hated this stroller was when my son and I were in the parking lot of the bank and I could not get it to close for the life of me. It was the summer... review »

Please note- this refers to the '06 model of this stroller.

 I did a lot of research before buying this stroller, and I couldn't be happier. In the past I've used several Combis and this stroller stands head and shoulders above them. In the world of lightweight strollers, the Triumph is a standout.

I purchased this stroller on clearance at BRU last winter and it was one of the best baby purchases we have made. We took a 9,000 mile roadtrip when our baby was 4-6 months and took her everywhere in this stroller. It performed fabulously. It's very lightweight and folds compactly. It's sturdy and attractive....

I bought a Maclaren Triumph (2007 model) for my then - 8 month old.  We had been using a Peg Pliko up til then, but it was really bulky, and he didn't like the feeling of being surrounded.  The Maclaren is really light, fold up small, is easy to open and close.  It reclines, so if he falls asleep in it, I can tip him back a bit, and keep walking.  The steering is great, and the handles adjust up, so it's easy to push.  It's smaller, so you're not pushing something 10ft in front of you and hitting people :)

It is very lightweight, so if he's not it, I can't carry anything on the back of it...

My husband and I were tired of pushing around our huge travel system stroller for our 3 year old daughter. We decided to look for a comfortable light weight stroller that would be easy to fold up compactly for an upcoming trip. I decided to purchase a model off of ebay - new, in a discontinued pink color - at a greatly reduced price. The stroller is comfortable and has a canopy, which is a feature many umbrella strollers lack, as well as a rain cover. I was able to purchase an organizer for the back of the stroller to hold water bottles and other items that we want to keep handy. The underseat...

We bought the Maclaren after initially purchasing a Peg Perego. My daughter hated being in our first stroller, and I was thrilled that she was content in the Maclaren from the moment she got into it.
The Maclaren is much more padded, and offers many more features than nearly any other umbrella type stroller; belive me, I did the research! The reclining seat, the rain cover (a godsend on a blustery New England winter day!) and the sun shade below the hood all offer extra protection for your baby. It is easy to maneuver, comfortable for the baby, light to cary, and consistently good quality. ...

I had a much more expensive stroller, but use this one instead.  It is so light and easy to use.  I can fold and unfold it with one hand.  It can maneuver between even the smallest aisles in the stores.  It is also a great stroller for a taller person.  My husband, who is over 6 ft tall, can push it easily without being hunched over.  I've never had a problem with the fact that it doesn't fully recline.  My son has fallen asleep in it no problem since he was about 5 months old.

another beautiful stroller that I bought, this was my first stroller with my son and it is very durable and stylish, got lots of compliments on it. My son fits very comfortable in this stroller the only thing is its a little hard to close and its not a light stroller so since my son is heavy its hard to carry up and down the stairs but excellent for a newborn or light baby.

I think this stroller is very sturdy and holds up well better than others, I love that it comes in many colors and even styles it has an excellent reputation and I would buy it again if I needed it too, Maclaren triumph stroller is most definetly one of the best strollers I have tried so far, it is a little costly but well worth it..

I love this stroller except one small thing it is so light that when I take my son out of it , it allways falls back and all I might have on it is a diaper bag but if I have only a couple of extra things in it then the stroller will fall back, other than that its a wonderful stroller well worth the price.

Love how lightweight, yet sturdy this stroller is.  it's light enough that you can carry it on your shoulder with the included shoulder strap.  Great space saver for cars with small trunk space, perfect for travel or everyday use.

This is good for once baby is sitting up unsupported- doesn't recline
