We have expanded our fleet with a so-called "golf stroller" and after some deliberation we chose the English classic from Maclaren. It has been on the market since 1965. The folding stroller was created by a former test pilot and aeronautical engineer, who used his knowledge of lightweight aircraft structures in its design. The reason was quite simple - a granddaughter. 
He felt the need to make a compact, foldable and comfortable travel stroller for a new generation of active parents. The design principles from 1965 have remained essentially unchanged to this day. Here is our experience with this brand:
Type: MACLAREN TECHNO XT
Price: 350 Eur, Colour: black, Buy it here: BabyMarket.sk
The Maclaren Techno XT All Black could be described very simply as versatile, safe and functional. Its compact frame folds very well and you can fold and unfold the stroller practically in one movement. The total weight of the stroller is 6.6 kg, which is really very good, especially for handling. The folded frame measures only H:107cm W:30 cm D:29cm. The stroller has 8 wheels with a diameter of 16.6 cm arranged in pairs, which makes it easy to steer even on uneven terrain. This ensures a smooth and comfortable ride. The seat has a 5-point safety harness, is comfortable and large enough. The lower part can be raised, which is very practical when the baby is sleeping, as the little legs do not dangle from the seat but are supported. The canopy of course has a UV protection filter SPF50 and can also be extended. On the sides of the extended part there are practical mesh walls for ventilation. From above you can check on the baby through a transparent window, which has a stylish magnetic closure. It is big enough and you could say it covers the entire seating part of the stroller. On the back there is a practical pocket for small things, which every mum will appreciate. Dads will have no problem either, as the handles are height-adjustable. The handles are rubberised, so the stroller does not slip. The shopping basket is large enough. However, when the backrest is reclined, handling things in it is a little more difficult. We also do not recommend hanging handbags or shopping on the handles of the stroller, as given its low weight it could "tip over". Various accessories are available for the stroller, such as an insect net or a practical cup holder. You can view all the described parameters in the photo gallery below the article, and if you would also like to see the PHOTO STORY with this stroller and how Emma enjoys it, here you go: PHOTO STORY: Black pram HOT or NOT?! From us, one big YES.
The biggest pluses from our point of view:
- foldability
- low weight - 6.6 kg
- easy handling on any terrain
