The review below was from 2007 and our daughter still loves this stroller. We've since added the Phil and Ted double stroller to our ride list but the MacLaren XLT is still her favoite at two years and four months old and 36 inches tall and 35 pounds.

We just received this stroller two days ago. It is beautiful and looks every bit the price tag. We are somewhat worried about the size of the stroller because we live in the city. That said, the extra seat cushion is ultra comfortable and our daughter literally giggled when we put her in for a test-sitting!
The color combination is very chic and the wheels move smoothly even when pushed quickly down uneven city street.
I do wish the hood isn't so wide and high but it does offer uva/uvb protection and that was the main reason we choose this model over the lighter and probably more city friendly Maclaren strollers. Buy Maclaren Techno XLR Buggy Stroller Charcoal and Burnt Orange!
