Mon Aug 18 2008This stroller delivers on its promises of being lightweight and very compact and has been a lifesaver since it is light enough to be gate checked with our car seat at the airport. My only recommendation, which is very minor, is that Maclaren make the bottle holder larger and more sturdy. Any bottle I have put in the holder has fallen when going over a bump (the snap and go's have very sturdy holders). Other than that, this stroller is perfect for us.

Sat May 31 2008I bought the Maclaren Easy Traveller to use with my Chicco KeyFit30 carseat. I had hoped that the stroller would fit into the trunk of my VW beetle. (It doesn't.) However, it has turned out to be one of my favorite baby purchases. It's light, umbrella folds (Snap and Gos -the competition- fold in half), has a carrying handle, and doesn't come unfolded while you carry it. Even better, it turns on a dime. I use it to grocery shop because the basket is so large and it maneuvers so easily. If I'm nitpicking, my only complaint is that it's wider than the Snap and Go, which makes it hard to take to busy Chicago restaurants. Oh, I love this thing. I highly recommend it.

Thu May 22 2008I bought this for my third child, having already used the snap n'go for my two older children. Must say, I am extremely pleased with this MAC. It is very lightweight and so easy to open and close. It is also very compact, most of the time i was storing it on the floor of my backseat! Also, the basket is large enough for everything...i even stored my other children's winter coats when we went shopping in a mall. I highly recommend this for any new mother.

Mon May 19 2008I know "love" is a strong word, but I really love our Maclaren Easy Traveller. We purchased the Graco travel system for our baby, and it really is awesome with the full size stroller and the great car seat. However, we travel quite a bit (once a month through the airport) and the Graco stroller is not travel-friendly. The Maclaren Easy Traveller is a breeze to take through security checks. It wraps up like an umbrella stroller, and opens up easily. The car seat locks in without problems. If your baby is not at the point of sitting up on his/her own, and you know you'll be using the carseat for quite some time, it just makes sense to have an Easy Traveller. Several other notes: We didn't connect the cup holder, so it's easier for us to use, plus I like the benefit of not having anything in between me and the baby. He feels "closer". Also, the basket was able to hold quite a bit of stuff on a recent shopping trip. It has easy access from the front, but a little tougher to get big t... Read more

Thu May 15 2008With my first child we purchased a car seat with a matching stroller. BIG MISTAKE the stroller was so large, heavy, and unmanagable we only used it about three to five times. We finally ended up purchasing a maclaren stroller that was feather light and extremely durable. We loved it! So when the time came around to purchase a new car seat for the current bun-in-oven we didn't even think twice. We purchased a Graco Safe Seat and this stroller. I got both today -- I LOVE this stroller. Super light weight, compact, easy to use. The adjustments that were necessary to accommodate the car seat were as simple as unscrewing two screws. This is by far the best stroller purchase we've made. I can't wait to use it with a baby inside...as it is, my son is having a great time pushing it around the house. Who knew, it not only is great for hauling around a baby, but will keep a 4 1/2 year old entertained for hours too. :)
