The Pushchair Track: Cath Kidston Spray Flowers Maclaren Quest Sport

Must say, I’m quite feeling the latest addition to Maclaren’s ‘objects of design’ collection which is where they collaborate with major designers to create limited edition pushchairs. The spray flowers print by Cath Kidston is her second collaboration with Maclaren and looks divine on the Quest Sport pushchair making it a real statement piece. £230 [...]

The Pushchair Track: Maclaren Yellow Submarine Buggy

There’s no prizes for guessing that the latest incarnation of the Quest pushchair from Maclaren is inspired by The Beatles ‘Yellow Submarine’ classic. Even with colder days ahead, the pushchair is a burst of signature sunshine yellow and has an embroidered liner which is also reversible to a very Austin Powers-esque psychedelic print. The hood [...]

Spot Red Buggy by Maclaren and Cath Kidston

I was over at the Cath Kidston site checking something out for our latest nursery tour when this buggy caught my eye. Is there a product which hasn’t received the Cath Kidston treatment I wonder?

The Pushchair Track: Maclaren’s Juicy Couture Pushchair

If you follow your celebrity gossip, you may recognise this Juicy Couture pushchair for Maclaren from recent pictures of Salma Hayek, her husband, and 19 month old daughter Valentina Paloma out and about in Saint Tropez.

The Pushchair Track: Maclaren Quest Mod in Big Apple Review

If you’re someone who has owned a heavier travel system (we have the Quinny Buzz), then you may be like the legions of parents who invested in a second lightweight pushchair stroller.

Natalie writes…Buying a pushchair can be an agonising decision, especially when you’re trying to balance your style sensibilities with function, so here is my guide to helping you make that decision. Aside from the style aesthetics, you need to consider suitability from birth (padding and lie flat options), travel system capability, handle style and height, [...]

Excellent Value! Maclaren Junior Quest Activity Center

Last week, I added a selection of doll transport to our Hot Christmas Toy section which included mini-me’s of well known pushchairs and prams like the Silver Cross Dazzle, Mamas and Papas Pliko, and the Silver Cross prams. Thanks to Brenda, here’s another fab buy and this is great value. Maclaren’s Junior Quest Activity Center [...]

The Pushchair Track: Maclaren Lulu Guinness This Is The Life Pushchair

Natalie writes… I’m a big fan of Maclaren’s Objects of Design collection because when you have something as immensely popular as a Maclaren pushchair, you need a few choicy designer collaborations for the style conscious parents that want to distinguish themselves. Taking the best selling Maclaren Quest, which weighs in at 5.2kg without the hood, [...]

The Pushchair Track: The Maclaren Techno XLR Travel System

Natalie writes… The lightweight pushchair and travel system market is fiercely competitive and the Maclaren Techno XLR Travel System combines the two. This travel system takes the Maclaren XT, enhances it with some additional features like a reversible seat liner, lined hood, and a head hugger and apron and then steps into the unusual territory [...]
