Overall, reviews for the Maclaren Quest Sport (and similar Quest Mod) are excellent. Most reviewers say durability and easy maneuverability are high points. The 12.2-pound Maclaren Quest Sport, however, is nearly identical to the less expensive Maclaren Triumph (*Est. $190). For the extra $55, you get two more reclining positions, some reflective trim, a peek-a-boo window in the canopy and an adjustable leg rest -- extras that might not be worth the extra money over the Maclaren Triumph, which is also highly rated.

We found plenty of reviews for the Maclaren Quest, which comes in two variations, the Sport and the Mod. The two differ only in cosmetics. The Maclaren Quest Sport is included in a recent roundup by Which? magazine (the British equivalent of ConsumerReports.org in the U.S.), and it's also dissected with typical attention to detail by StrollersAndPrams.com. We also found dozens of helpful owner-written reviews.

2. Which? magazine

In its ongoing coverage of strollers, Which? magazine (a British contemporary of ConsumerReports.org) chooses the Maclaren Quest Sport as one of its top-rated strollers (out of 36 recommended models). Editors say this stroller is easy to push, steer, fold and unfold, but its small wheels aren't suited to rough terrain.

3. StrollersandPrams.com

In this extremely detailed, hands-on review (accompanied by pictures), StrollersAndPrams.com's reviewer concludes that the Maclaren Quest Sport is comfortable and easy to use, but has a small, hard-to-reach basket and a seat recline that requires two hands. Also, the writer is concerned about how children tend to slump down in the seat.

4. Amazon.com

We didn't find many reviews at Amazon.com for the latest colors of the Maclaren Quest Sport, but there are some reviews for last year's colors. These can be helpful since the stroller has not changed mechanically. The Maclaren Quest Sport gets perfect scores from most parents.
