I bought a MacLaren Quest on 2008 for my first daughter.
Now she is 4 years old and she still sits on the MacLaren going everywhere. To let you imagine how we use it, just a short list:
- We use it everyday for my daughters.
- We were going to Australia (Perth), Singapore, Vietnam (Hanoi and HCM city and some coastal cities). For those who usually travel, they may know the walking conditions: on streets, to the beaches, on grass, on soil, up-down the hills, on bus, train, mrt and weather condition in those places. And we have been using the MacLaren Quest for our baby very comfortably, safely, with all her stuff hooked securely on frame or the bag behind and under the seat.
- My wife and I love walking than going by some vehicles, particularly for distances up to 4km from home. We use MacLaren Quest for all such events. Even when we go shopping, it helps carry almost everything we bought, of course, with our daughter on. It might be a bit messy with more than 5 shopping bags hangging around and even a 10kg bag of rice, bottle of washing liquid under the seat (:D). But NO PROBLEM at all.
- Our second daughter just 1 year old now continues using it with joy. Now we use the MacLaren Quest to carry stuff of two daughters.
- Now is 2012, it lasts for almost 4 years, have been washed quite often, but has just a bit tear on the handle. But the MacLaren is still very very realiable and is our love, safe buggy for my babies.

We are looking to buy another MacLaren Quest for our daughters. Highly recommended!
