I researched A LOT of strollers before finally purchasing the MacLaren Techno XT. I knew I wanted something lightweight, easy-to-fold, and stylish...and there is no other stroller that fits all of these qualities. I never thought pushing and toting around a stroller would be so easy! It's so light and easy to fold that you will want to take it everywhere. Where as most strollers are big and bulky, this one is super light and convenient. It's also a very attractive stroller; I receive compliments all of the time! I own the XT in charcoal gray, and since I have a daughter, I also purchased the comfort pack in powder pink...super cute!! Lastly, this stroller is very comfy for your little tot. My daughter will sit in it for hours! The seat can fully recline, making it especially ideal if your child falls asleep.
Although the XT is suitable for a newborn, I would hold off until your baby is at least 3 months old. I don't feel that there is enough support for a newborn. In the meantime, depending on which type of car seat you own, it's wise to purchase a stroller frame and place the car seat right on top while your baby is still small. I used the Graco frame with my Graco SafeSeat on top, and then moved on to the MacLaren. The frame usually costs around $70 or so. I would recommend doing this instead of purchasing a travelsystem stroller...they are WAY too heavy and bulky and will make you dread going anywhere with it! I hope this review was helpful!

We got our Maclaren Techno XT at babysrus as it was the floor model and the last of it's kind in the store. It was about the same price as our travel system, but Daddy is 6'6" and Momma is 5'11" and all the other umbrella strollers were made for much smaller people, so we splurged. We have not looked back since! If we could have purchased this stroller first instead of our travel system, it would have been a no-brainer, but being first time parents, we just assumed that the travel system was what you got for your baby. The only time we ever used the big bulky stroller was across the parking lot of the mega-church we attended at that time and at the mall a time or two, but whenever Momma wanted to go take our son for a walk, she was quickly discouraged as the travel system was big, bulky, and heavy. Not the Maclaren Techno! This thing is light, zippy, perfect for regular and taller folk as the handles adjust (and it's much taller than your average umbrella to start with), turns on a dime, and our son greatly likes the adjustable leg extension and the full recline option. Our techno has gone everywhere, from the mall, to the local park, across tall unkept grass and poorly maintained sidewalks, to the zoo, and it never tires out the pusher and our son is always comfortable.
If there could be one negative, it would be that you are not able to hang things off the handles in as much volume as a travel system stroller. The Techno is more of a column shape and if you off-set that balance, it will fall over backwards. Granted, with our son strapped in, the stroller can take a lot of stuff hanging off of it before it topples, just make sure you unload the handles before your kiddo or everything will end up on the floor as soon as you free your child. The undercarriage is smaller, so if you take it mall shopping you'll have a limit to how much you stick in there. Typically a couple jackets is about all it'll hold. This has never been a problem for us, but if you're big mega shoppers, then maybe the travel system is a better choice for you. For us, we've never out-spent our Maclaren's capability of holding the stuff we got, or maybe we were just artful arrangers of the bags, but it's never been a problem for us.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about this stroller! My husband and I wanted an umbrella stroller because we like to travel as light as possible. The less stuff, the better. To accomplish that and actually have what you need, however, you have to plan and research. So we looked and looked online, read Consumer Reports reviews, and talked to people we knew. We found that McClaren might possibly be the only brand that makes an umbrella stroller for use with kids under 6 months of age. One plus for McClaren! Another major plus is how lightweight and yet sturdy the Techno XT is. How about this? My husband is 6'2" and I am 5'5" - and we both love to push it! It turns on a dime. Oh, and the sun shade is huge!
Another reviewer mentioned not putting kids under 3 mos old in it, and I just want to include here that we used a head support insert in this stroller at first. It's a very simple solution that meant we could buy this one stroller and use it for a long, long time.
It's also true that this stroller doesn't have space for holding much in the bin underneath, and it's not balanced to hold much on the handles. So if you want a stroller for mega-shopping, look elsewhere. But if you want an amazing, small, and lightweight stroller - this is it!
