All user reviews of Maclaren Techno XLR

3.1/5

  • Very durable, indestructible stroller
  • Spacious
  • Wheels go quietly, not rattling
  • Large canopy
  • Positioning of the backrest and legs
  • Belly bar could be included

I love Maclarens, they can handle everything, they have a really durable frame. The XLR is spacious even for bigger toddlers. Ideal for summer holidays, but we also went around a true mountain with it - and it was slightly snowy :) Super big canopy, and there's the possibility to buy a belly bar extra.

  • lightweight
  • warranty is none

Maclaren refused to fix the brakes that stopped working after roughly 6 months. Their argument was that a manufacturing defect would show earlier and that some dust got into the breaks and broke them.

The warranty lists parts that are not covered - the brakes are not among them.
I was really dissapointed with Maclaren!

It wasnt much of a good fit for me

  • Beautiful design
  • Stability
  • Easy-to-do umbrella fold
  • Handles became \sticky\" over time"
  • Small basket
  • Quite heavy for what it is

Moms usually praise it, but it wasn't much of a good fit for me. I didn't like the two umbrella style handles - I couldn't push it with one hand. After some time, the handles became sticky, which I hated. We had to buy new, spare, made of foam. Later on, I read on more forums that people have problems with the same thing often. I expected more for the price.
