Summary: Unstable & Poor Quality 2008-04-21
Comment: This stroller is great if all you plan to use it for is strolling down an even surface, have nothing to carry, and have a child willing to sit still in a stroller. It is very lightweight and a perfect height for tall adults.
However, from a day to day practical standpoint, this stroller is inadequate. The storage space under the seat is small (my small diaper bag will not fit) and the space cannot be easily accessed when the seat is in the reclining position. If you try to hang the diaper bag or shopping bags from the handles, the stroller will tip over when the child is removed. My daughter from 18 months on was able to lean forward while strapped in and walk away, with the stroller. Imagine stopping in a store to take a closer look at something and turning around to see your stroller walking itself down the aisle! It is even more problematic when you have a diaper bag hanging off the back, and she stands up. The whole stroller flips over taking the child, who is strapped in, with it. Not a pleasant situation.
On top of the instability, the plastic part that holds the shade to the handle is poorly designed. It snapped in two when I tried to open the shade. Maclaren will not allow you to order replacement parts so now I have no shade.
I urge anyone to consider how they will be using this stroller before purchasing. It is a nice stroller but not practical for daily errands.

Summary: Compact, lightweight, excellent stroller 2007-09-17
Comment: This is a great lightweight stroller for toddlers that should last for years. It is easy to stow unlike the humongous bulky infant strollers offered by an Italian competitor (PP) that are impossible to fold up and can cost up to 3x more. Our toddler is delighted to be able to see everything from his comfortable seat and it is relatively easy to fold up once you get the hang of it. However, I do subtract one star because the folding mechanism is not intuitive or self-explanatory but that seems to be true for most models except for the wonderful Snap-N-Go (which alas is only a frame).
We just bought the 2006 Triumph and saved a bundle (McLaren confirmed that they are functionally identical). But take it from a first time parent - you can't go wrong with a McLaren, the build quality is worth paying a bit more.

Summary: wonderful-especially for city Moms 2007-02-26
Comment: I am very happy with this stroller. My baby girl and I go all over NYC in it. It is light, sturdy and comfortable for baby. The 5 point harness keeps baby safe and it has a nice shade on top. It folds easily, if you need to get on the bus or through subway turnstiles. Our little girl is comfy and it can recline a bit for naps. I also like that it came with a Maclaren plastic rain shield. It snaps on and fits well. I just wish I had this stroller for her older brother, since I had a heavy Graco one for him.

Summary: Maclaren Triumph Red Flag Stroller - worth the price! 2007-01-09
Comment: We love this stroller and, most importantly, our daughter does too! It sits upright just enough so that she's comfortable, but has the option to recline. We hated the drawstring recline option our old travel system had, it never sat up enough for our daughter. This stroller is light weight, and easy to use.
The only suggestions we have for future improvement would be to make the basket underneath a little bigger as it barely fits our diaper bag, as well as make the latch to open the stroller closer to the handles on top.
If you are looking for a lightweight, sporty, comfortable stroller for your little one, the Maclaren Triumph is it!
