Maclaren Stroller concerns......

[karenbaco]

Just bought the Maclaren Triumph and am a little bit concerned about the storage basket. I'm also concerned about it tipping backwards if we hang anything on the handlebar. I would like to bring a soft cooler with drinks and such and some everyday necessities. Does anyone find this stroller to be suitable for a Disney Vacation?? Any pros and cons for me??
Thanks

I have owned the Triumph for close to three years. Yes, it does tip backwards when you hang things from the handle (you need your child in there to weigh it down!). The storage basket is also small. With that being said, it folds up nicely, and we plan on taking ours to the World in November. I am going to order the cup holder that others have posted here, too. We also took the Triumph to Niagara Falls and the plastic cover kept DS dry as a bone (he was not even one at the time). It's a very nice stroller for being out and about, but it's not made for lugging a bunch of stuff!

we have take our Triumph to WDW and it did great for us. Yes it will tip if you hang a bag from the handles without a kid in the stroller. I hang our backpack straps over the handles and then put the bag part of the backpack in the basket and it won't tip when our child pops up. It folds up nicely, and we typically only keep a poncho and the rain cover in the bottom of the basket.
