Maclaren Stroller Recall

Many parents (us included) count Maclaren strollers as some of their favorite gear for traveling with babies.  They fold-up easily and quickly.  They are sturdy.  On top of that, my daughter actually enjoys sitting in it.  If you read the history of Maclaren, you know they came into being when Mr. Maclaren noticed how hard it was for his daughter to travel transatlantic with his grandchild while using a pram.  He found a better way and we all benefit from his creativity.

News came out today that Maclaren USA is issuing a voluntary recall.  Apparently, there’s a problem with the hinge and reports of children being injured.

If you own a Maclaren, read the press release from the U.S. Consumer Products Safety Commission and find the order form for the free hinge cover.
