Maclaren - Globetrotter

Ma fille a 3 ans, elle est en petite section et elle marche bien donc. Quand nous sortons nous balader dans Paris, ou qu on se fait une expo, un truc comme ça et que mademoiselle s endort sur le retour, nous sommes contents d avoir la poussette. Idem quand nous devons aller voir des gens et qu il faut marcher : elle ne marche vraiment pas vite... Nous avons une maclaren globetrotteur : étroite, légère, robuste et se plie facilement.

Started with uppa baby Cruz. Bought a surfboard for it once we had two kids. Bought a Maclaren for local travel outside of city. Ended up acquiring a yoyo once oldest was good to walk. Once my youngest entered second half of pre-k we were done. Uppa was our durable beast that got us through the city like an suv. Carried a lot. Comfortable. Great shade coverage. Versatile, great to grow with. We also had the carrier and carseat prior. Took a lot of punishment. Best for streets that weren’t smooth or cobblestone. Good for two kids. Became or grocery hauler a couple years which I’d get positive comments from people all the time for doing. Bulky, hard to park at a museum or go down subway / stairs. MacLaren foldable was the pop and go. Great steering, ok for shade. but kinda sucked on some city streets. Yo-yo bonpoint was the EV sports car. All around good efficient, turns on a dime. But not great if you like hauling a lot things. Decently comfortable. Really easy to drive. Can get caught on street sometimes but not a lot. So compact for parking or folding up at restaurant or museum. I’d say I’m not sure how’d we’d get through with out having the uppa baby in the first years with two kids. But if you’re good about traveling light go Yo/Yo for the ease. Ah love hate relationship with strollers

Whatever has big wheels and is narrow. We used a McLaren when we lived in Madrid. 

I lived in Europe, not Italy but Madrid. And omg a doona will beyond not work in Europe. The sideways/curbs/roads are very uneven, those small wheels will never work. You also don’t want a super wide stroller either. Narrowed doorways small elevators metro turnstiles busy sidewalks the list goes on. We had a McLaren there and it was great. Depending on how often youre taking buses you may need to factor in frequently collapsing youre stroller if you want a seat. Also theives target strollers so nothing Valuable on the stroller. 

we have a maclaren.. cheap and good

maclaren stroller (portable, gate check), buubibottle milk warmer (feed on flight), pop its (distraction) you got the rest covered

It’s probably not the lightest but we really like our Maclaren umbrella stroller. Has some storage, a carry strap, adjusts to lean back, has a sun and rain cover, etc.

Living in Europe too and MacLarens are where it’s at.
