Love Love LOVE!!

I have used a lot of strollers and am quite particular. Especially weary of lightweighters not giving me a smooth ride like say, my BOB. But let me just say, this sucker is amazing!! It's now my go to stroller which I NEVER thought I'd say. I can pop curbs (can you even believe that?? I approached a curb and didn't want to go all the way around, so I went for it) easy as pie. Then strolled over uneven grass and gravel path....all a breeze. Getting it in/out of car with one hand whilst holding a baby- DREAM COME TRUE! Collapsing and unfolding with one hand, amazing! I hand things off the sturdy cup holder - no probs- altho not totally recommended, and the bottom basket is large for such a compact stroller. I'm literally OBSESSED! I'll only take another stroller now is we are climbing/hiking and it will be the BOB. I'm literally baffled by the smoothness of the ride and the easy one handed 360 degree turns this can pull off. Only a Stokke ever did that kind of maneuver well for me, this is even better. Double doorways, no prob, slim spaces, no prob. Truly love this!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Loving it!

I have the red one. It is super comfortable for my almost 2 year old girl. I love it because it is super light, it does not take up much space in my trunk, it is super fast & easy to use (open and close). It has one medium size basket in the bottom where my diaper bag perfectly fits! But it also has like a "bag" right bellow the seat, so I can put my purse, or snacks, bottled water, etc. It also has a cup holder! I love the reclining feature, when my girl fells asleep i just reclined all the way down and unfold the footrest (this is what I wish it was a little longer, just to be able to fully fit my little girl) Her feet are not all the way in. I use it all the time for family trips, stores, airport, we love it!

Perfect and compact

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This stroller stays in the back of my minivan at all times. It is perfect and impact! My 2 year old stays comfortable and doesn't try to squirm out. I think that not having the tray in front makes a big difference to where they don't feel trapped.

The only compact needed

Verified Purchase:No
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have a 3 year old toddler who doesn't like to walk in large crowds. We recently started using the Maxi-Cosi Lara Ultra Compact Stroller when we go to the mall and on our recent trip to NYC. It was the best size for fitting in my trunk and limits bulk while traveling. It was super lightweight as I was going solo with my daughter on the flight.My daughter fit comfortably inside the seat with the harness and the storage underneath held my purse and additional shopping bags we acquired.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Do not recommend

Verified Purchase:No
This was an expensive item which broke rather quickly and sadly, it is extremely dangerous due to the location of its break. When using this for traveling please be cautious while walking, the stroller will lock very easily causing the stroller to flip forward. It happened several times and we nearly went over our own daughter. The seat sat up so straight she couldn't even get comfortable and the leg rest broke while try to Close it. It definitely made our trip challenging. I do not recommend this at all.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Too flimsy. Not recommended for bigger babies
on June 7, 2020

I got this stroller for my 9 month old as a gift . The stroller is very flimsy And locks on me. This morning I was walking to the store and when trying to turn the stroller it locked causing the stroller to tip to the side and thankfully I was able to catch it before it hit the ground with my LO inside. It has no front bar which I feel is no protection to my LO. My LO is 24 pds and it feels like he is in a doll stroller. Unfortunately I have no recipe due to it being a gift and not wanting to seem ungrateful. I now have to go out and spend non a more sturdy stroller. I wanted to love it but this is NOT it.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

It's a fail and This is life threatening product
on October 17, 2019

Verified Purchase:No
this product must be recalled! very dangerous! Today, was a very tragic day, I lived a horrific moments with my baby girl. The stroller got locked and flipped with my baby girl inside it, I tripped over it my self, luckily my baby girl had her belt fastened. The moment I stood up and lifted the stroller, I found my daughter all shaky with her eyes closed. My baby a girl and I were shaky and terrified. She had her chin injured. FYI: I have been facing a problem with this stroller since the first day I bought back in June 2019, it locks by itself that's because of the faulty design. I read reviews and users are sharing the same concerns. This stroller handle is not parallel to the ground, it is lower on the left side, higher on the right side, making it difficult to push straight. when walking, brake is in the place of the right foot, which causes the sudden break. The brake is too close to the foot in which it results sudden stops during the walk The wheels don't easily roll over bumps without having to tilt the stroller back and lift the wheels, and at times an uneven sidewalk has jolted us to a stop tipping the stroller forward, which is a safety concern. This is life threatening and I m very upset with what happened today with your invention. We buy your invention because we trust you but in this case, you should recall all these strollers or this will cost you much. don't buy it if you care about your kids! next time I ll trust more the reviews!!!!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
