Maclaren Question

PicturePrfect

We are looking at getting the Quest, but does anyone know what the difference between the Quest sport and the regular Quest is?  So far all I can figure out is that the sport is 2 lbs heavier ... but I can't seem to find why that is. 

 

TIA!

Did you look on the website. If not it is mclarenbaby.com.

I did look on the website.  On their website it doesn't even list the Quest, only the Quest sport and Quest mod, so I'm thinking maybe the sport is just a newer model of the Quest?  It would still be nice to know what the differences are though ... darn

Baby Bargains explains: The Quest comes in three different versions- the Sport, the Mod and the Kate Spade. The only difference between the three is color options-- the sport offers basic colors, the mod offers a fancy retro look and Kate Spade is a designer print.

So it seems it's entirely a fabric distinction.

Awesome thank you!!!  I can't see spending an extra $48 just for a fabric difference ....

Does the quest recline?  Some of the "cheaper" Maclaren's do not and it's really important to find one that does, IMO.

I have a Maclaren Triumph and LOVE it!

The Quest does recline.  Hmm ... now I'll have to check out the differences between the Quest and the Triumph ...

I don't think so- it says in Baby Bargains it's "partial recline."

Oh the only difference is the Quest has the foot rest.  Was it a problem for you that the Triumph didn't have a foot rest?  I was thinking that when they're sleeping it might be a little more comfy for them to have their feet up, but maybe it doesn't really matter to them.  What do you think?

Yes, it reclines to four positions according to their website.

We have the Maclaran Quest (Mod) and LOVE it!  It does recline.  We also have the Volo, but that doesn't recline.  I don't think you can go wrong with any of the Maclaran's, they are great strollers!
