We used our Maclaren Techno from birth without any problems. Although, when he was very tiny, he wasn't in it very often. He preferred to be in the Baby Bjorn or just in arms. My kid's never been much of a recliner though. Even though the Techno goes flat, I don't remember reclining it much except for when he was itty bitty and fell sound asleep in my arms and then I laid him down in there to finish his nap there. I'd think your Quest would work.
