   Personally I find it inexcusable Maclaren didn’t plan for a huge spike in traffic to its site. It shows they don’t really “get” their market (Type A, educated, super vocal and engaged) or the communication channels they use to share information.

   Thanks for the comment Jon,

   I am sure many folks shared your frustration after trying to access Maclaren’s site only to find they couldn’t. Fortunately, it seems the site is back up for now. If you’re still having problems or you just need the order form for the repair kit, try:

Not only are they very convenient but it makes going out for day trips or shopping a lot easier on the parents as well. There are many different types available and one model that is proving very popular is the Combi double stroller.
