Their Maclaren Techno XT is everything you'd expect from a classic umbrella stroller and more, with numerous features including height-adjustable handles, a peek-a-boo window and an extendable sun visor.

It's such a travel hybrid - the weight and dimensions when folded are the weak side of the stroller, on the other hand the large internal dimensions, canopy and solid frame are a plus compared to modern "mini" strollers. Keep in mind, this is not the same kind of suspension you get on a jogger, but it’s better than nothing. For me, it was slightly heavier than our Quest, it’s a bit more hefty lugging it in and out of the car boot. I’ve tested a lot of umbrella strollers and Techno XT is one lever above all of other umbrella strollers when it comes to maneuverability and terrain handling. Introductions are limited to motor finance, CarMoney Limited will pay us a fixed commission per paid out deal.

My youngest preferred going to sleep in this buggy rather than his own bed so must be very comfy and came with rain cover, great value for money.

My 6ft 3 husband thinks its great and says he likes the look because its not too girly too push around and he doesnt have to bend over! The hard rubber 6″ wheels and all-wheel suspension provide a comfy ride even over bumpy streets and playground mulch. So, the immediate draw for me with the Techno XT is that it specifies being suitable from birth to 5 years! Most strollers in the review weigh less than the Techno, making it one of the heavier strollers to lift and carry. However, the Techno XT does feature a built-in mesh foot barrier (to keep baby from sliding out), shoulder harness pads and a head-hugging pillow insert to keep infants safe and cozy.Like most other options in this review, this stroller isn't too hard to push and turn on flat, hard surfaces, given its dual wheel design. This stroller combines the convenience of an umbrella stroller with many of the extras of a full-size stroller—really the best of both worlds! I like that it has two extendable handles for us taller mums, however, would love these to extend towards me, as well as upwards giving a little more step room as I am walking.
