The features I absolutely love about the Triumph are the adjustable handles. This is something that is not on most lightweight strollers. And it is for moms and dads of different heights. All you have to do is lift a lever and handles go all the way down and all the way up for the taller moms and dads so they kick the frame of the stroller if they have a long stride. As you will notice between the two rear wheels there is no bar to kick anyway. So, somebody with a long stride isn’t going to kick the stroller.
The seat is large and roomy. It is comfortable for a small child as well as a large child. The canopy is large enough so there is enough room for your child to grow. There is an adjustable 5 point padded harness that adjusts snuggly to fit your small children as well as your older toddlers.
The feature I really like is the adjustable footrest, so that your tiniest riders don’t have their legs dangling. And I just love that it has a lower foot rest for older children to comfortably set their feet. The Maclaren Triumph has a recline, but it is not a flat recline, so I recommend this stroller from 6 months and up. It folds simply. It is a strap system recline. And that makes it so easy to do. But you are noth gong to be able to do this easily with a child in the seat because their weight pulls on the strap. On the other hand it is not that bad. If I had just one change it would be that there would be one handed bar recline which would make things much easier for moms and dads.
There is a basket underneath. It is not the biggest basket and it can fit a purse or few baby essentials such as diapers and tissues. But it is not going to fit your big diaper bag.
Since the Maclaren Triumph is sturdy you will probably be able to hang your diaper bag on the handlebar. Also, there is a unique head rest that keeps your child comfortable but allows air to circulate through the stroller.
There are four rubber wheels that provide a very smooth ride for your child. The beaks are easy to do with just your foot by stepping on a break lever.
Once your figure out how to fold a Maclaren Triumph it is easy to do; just push back the canopy, one foot underneath, one foot on the right hand side and you are done. And unfolding this stroller is also easy to do.
The maneuverability of the Triumph is amazing. It glides along with very little effort. It is truly a one handed stroller. As you will notice because of the four wheel system it does not tip even when you turn it. Weigh in 11.5 pounds this stroller is one of the most lightweight four wheel pushchairs on the market.
Overall, it is compact, has great maneuverability, great design and retails for around $190. Definitely a recommended model!
