Maclaren stroller recalled back!
The affected models include Volo, Triumph, Quest Sport, Quest Mod, Techno XT, Techno XLR, Twin Triumph, Twin Techno and Easy Traveller, according to the stroller company. The strollers, which are manufactured in China, are sold nationwide.
Maclaren, in cooperation with the CPSC, is providing consumers and retailers free repair kits which will cover a joint on the faulty hinge mechanism.
Consumers should stop using the strollers immediately and call Maclaren toll-free at (877) 688-2326, the company said.

huh?? i thinking of getting a maclaren leh....now how..
ivy
thanks for sharing. i also read about this. from what i know, it's a small thing which can be avoided through careful handling of the stroller. just make sure your children are not holding on to the stroller during opening or closing. it's nothing fatally dangerous, nor is the product fundamentally flawed.
pas
i think can still get. in fact, now is a good time to get because you can be sure that they will fix whatever is the problem before they sell it to you.

echo,
yeah .. I've used a Maclaren for years ... and I think they are the awesome-est strollers.
You're right, just have to be careful .. I was driving my dotter to school today, and i stopped at a pedestrian crossing, a lady pushing her toddler in the stroller, wanted to cross ... she pushed the stroller off the kerb and the toddler fell out !!! .. luckily not onto the road ..and thankfully, I was already stationary. BUT STILL !!! SHe hadn't strapped him in!!! ... so any stroller, when not used correctly, is dangerous lor.

Pas,
I have the Quest. very manouverable .. and quite light aldy I feel. And at least can recline. Baby will sure fall asleep in the stroller at some point what.
Snowger, ya la ... I was quite shocked. Firstly, I dunno WHY she was RUSHING and basically CHARGED across the pedestrian crossing ... luckily, I'm not one of those drivers that try to squeeze ahead of the pedestrians BEFORE they cross. Damn lucky man .. I saw her boy tumble out leh ... almost on the road or maybe even a bit ON the road cos it was on my left and I couldn't see over my front .... if I was moving ... possible my left front tyre either hit him or go over him ... really careless that she put him in without doing up the straps.

Sam,
Some mothers are wierd or they take for granted that if their kids are obidient enough to sit on the strolle, they no need to strap. Not expecting that in their rush or when e-braking, the kid will "fly" out of the stroller lor...
pas/zachmum,
It closed as if I'm folding up the stroller to keep. And yes, I did "lock" the stroller but hb's hard push forward might have cause the lock to unlock.
I had quite a scare cos my ger oso woke up and wondered why the stroller become so cram suddenly. We were at the down escalator of the overhead bridge jus outside Royal Plaza by Scotts. My hb had to carry the folded stroller with my ger down the stairs. Best part was we could not open it as one of the wheels was "stuck". Act an evil thot came to my mind "spoil lagi best... I can buy a proper stroller", but it din happen!!! PS: my ger went back to zzz even before we resumed the stroller back to the original state... -__-"
zachmum,
Ur capalla is not cheapo lar. If it is, then my stroller must be from the dump...
bubble,
No lar. I was not at robinson leh...Mayb tat person was oso using the same strolle as me...

kristalangel,
U got so many strollers???? haha... My store room is so full tat I can't find a place to store bb's outgrown stuff...
I err... call me cheapo or thrifty or stingy, I dun usually spend $ to buy stuff to replace things that are not broken. I spend most of my money replacing the empty space in my tummy... *OPPS*
But I think strollers are super good investment if they are easy to handle! Hehe... I will definetely buy one sometime down the road lar (one with 5 pt harness) to LOCK my ger in place... Haha...
Bubble,
The mother is terrible lar... she must have left the maid to open the stroller... Last time when I open, I did do it until I heard the "click" sound. So tat could have been wat happen to the maid lor.
Till now I can never dare to attempt bringing my ger out in a stroller and using escalators. If I do, I look for lifts...
If that place, I scared no lift, I use my Bjorn. But nowadays diff, cos my back aches n I get tired easily aft walking ard with her for 10mins...

SIGH. Now with the new Maclaren ... I dunno how. I might sell my Buzz and the older Maclaren. Haven't decided. first must HIDE the new one from my hubby .. LOL !!
kath,

snow/sam: yes I think I must invest in a lightweight & good one..not tat my Capella no good. I think it served my well these 11 mths, but hor, it's heavy!!!!
& it takes up space in the car boot...so i'm look at a good one to "lock" my boy too (5 pt is good) cos current one only 3 pt & he can try to climb out...(i hope the 5 pt harness storller can hold him as he can alredy climb out fm the car seat which is a 5 pt harness...*faint*...)
sam: so ur latest buy is QUEST? it's lightwt enuff? hah tt's good! how many positions?

pas .. my old one is also a Quest .. just that I am bored with the colour. lol.
it has 3 positions .. doesn't recline all the way .. but it's enough for napping. It's 5 pt harness .. but if your boy can climb out of a 5 pt harness on the carseat, then I think he should be able to climb out of this one too. lol !

jess,
keep lor. hear him complain and scold me lor. what can he do rite? bought aldy. At least not an expensive 1k plus handbag .. HAHAHAH !!
Haiyo, the Maclaren recall is really stupid. Come on, who here doesn't know that your baby/toddler/kid is not supposed to stick his finger into the hinge mechanism when trying to open or close the stroller?? Even I won't stick my finger anywhere it's not supposed to be. I see the metal snapping shut when I close the stroller .. I'm not stupid to test and see whether it'll clip and injure my finger if i stick it in there .. I ASSUME IT WILL COS IT'S METAL AND THE FORCE REQUIRED TO CLOSE/OPEN THE STROLLER SHOULD BE INDICATION THAT IT MAY HURT U if u do something so blardy duh as that. Are a.m. stoopid ??!!
Oh it's on the news liao ... we are not affected by the Maclaren recall !! .. they will issue safety covers that will cover the hinge part to protect kiddies' fingers.
