Maxi-Cosi Tayla Max Modular Stroller, Onyx Wonder

This stroller is both functional and trendy. It definitely grows with the baby because of the carriage and traditional sitting up mode. The fabric and materials used to make the stroller are high quality and it was fun to be able to choose between two fabric types. It is a bigger stroller (spacious too) but I have no trouble fitting it in my SUV trunk. It rides so smoothly and the 360 degree shade canopy has great coverage for my little one. The folding/unfolding of it took a couple trys but then I got the hang of it. I also LOVE the ease of all the reclining options the stroller offers. That my baby can face both me or forward facing was a cool feature I've never seen before. Overall, it is a quality stroller that is very versatile and plush…my baby I can tell is very comfortable in it, and that's all I ask for as a mom! I received this product through the Stellar Product Testing Panel.

I bought this stroller about a month ago. My baby is 4 months old, I did a lot of research on strollers that could turn into bassinets without needing an attachment. Overall I call it my Mercedes of how luxurious it is! The color doesn't stain at all, and it's still clean even thought we've been through dirt roads. I love how I can turn it into a bassinet when my baby falls asleep at Disneyland and how easy it is to fold and unfold. I would say it is very heavy for me but I can still put it in and out of my suv.

Great mid-size travel stroller with multiple seat options and easy collapsing system. Easy set up! Collapsing the stroller is a learning curve, but once you get the hang of it, its easy. The frame is sturdy and maneuvering is smooth. Safety wise, the 5 point harness allows me to know my little guy is secure while still being comfortable in the seat. It also comes with a warm side and a cool side to the seat insert, accommodating warm and cooler temperatures. I would give it a 9/10 overall. It will definitely be my go-to stroller for quick outings and traveling.

I received this stroller as part of a stellar panel. It is a gorgeous stroller. The fabric is beautiful and soft. There is an included liner which will help with keeping the stroller looking new. It only took me a few mins to put it all together from the box and it was very intuitive to more the seat into all the different modes. This stroller would be excellent from newborn where you have a built in bassinet that is achieved just by lowering the seat. It is great that you can be parent facing or forward facing using the same seat and still have all the options with the bassinet and recline. The push is easy, there are independent breaks for each rear wheel and are easy to use. The basket is a good size to fit what you need for a day. I love that it comes with the drink cup holder and a rain cover. It is easy to check up on the little one with the peekaboo type window and it is nice that the opening is quiet so you won't disturb a sleeping baby. Good coverage from the canopy and also has a nice feel to it.

I've received this stroller through the Stellar Product Testing Panel and it's been great. It was very easy to assemble and upon completion was very easy to maneuver opening and closing. The height is perfect for my husband and I, we are tall individuals but the handle is adjustable so it's great for people of different heights. The seat has different adjustable modes for our one year old to either sit-up, recline or lay flat and it also gives us the option to have him sit forward or backward facing. The shade gives great coverage from the sun and we also got the plastic covering incase it rains. The storage bin is a good size for diaper bag as well as few other things you might want to rest there if shopping. However, this stroller is a bit on the bigger side as it takes up a lot space in the car. Although it comes with a cup holder, it's very flimsy compared to the quality material used on the rest of the stroller and it would have been nice to have maybe a snack tray with the cup holder for feeds on the go. Overall the quality, convenience, comfort and aesthetics of this stroller is definitely worth having. P.S. it can also be used with the car seat if you choose the entire travel system

As a mom of a 3 year old and 8 month old, here are a few observations I had: Pros: -Love the leather details on the handle and matching bumper bar -Comes with a car seat adapter, cup holder which easily fit my tumbler, and child rain guard which easily fits right over the seat -My favorite feature is you can fold the stroller closed with ONE HAND and leave the seat on and it still folds pretty flat which is huge for parents with their hands full. The stroller also stands up on its own -Seats easily adjust for the child to sit upright or pulls down flat into a bassinet for naps on the go or babies that can't sit upright -Seats can easily flip around to face either direction which I love since my toddler likes to face out but my baby likes to see me. For when facing out there is a peek-a-boo window for the adult to flip up and check on the child -It feels durable and lighter than comparable sized strollers -Oversized wheels won't deflate and can cover a variety of terrains -Shade canopy pulls down far to shade the child. BONUS the extendable canopy pulls down over the seat for added protection from sun and/or bugs. The mesh fabric is see through to check on the child without having to uncover them -Handle bar adjusts up and down for taller or shorter people -Double sided cushion is removable for washing for when something inevitably spills or can be removed for bigger kids Cons: -Hard to unfold without having to bend down and use two hands to pull the back wheels out to click it into place -Not a lightweight or compact stroller and takes up space in trunk of the car -Extendable mesh canopy easily unzips but zipping it back up takes longer so you don't catch the fabric in the zipper -No hand brake option -Bottom basket could be deeper Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this stroller. Overall it's a nice stroller with many features for families on the go allowing baby to ride in comfort and style.

I used the Maxi-Cosi Tayla stroller immediately after receiving the product from Stellar Product Testing Panel in the mail. It just so happened that I was running errands with my mother. She was the first to test out the Tayla stroller and immediately told me, "This pushes like a dream!" I was amazed how smooth it was! I was in a tight aisle and was easily able to turn and navigate with this stroller. It didn't feel bulky or difficult. Not only that, I had to push the stroller with one hand often during this shopping trip. It was so easy! Unfortunately, I have a 3 row car that has absolutely NO SPACE in the truck. Rarely can I transport anything in my trunk. I was so excited because the Tayla actually fit in there easily! The reason why is because the seat can be removed and turned either facing forward or backward. I was able to fold the stroller frame, place it in my trunk and the seat was put in my front seat. Easy as that! I was very excited. Next, let's talk about the seat. I love the fact that I can rear face to provide less distractions for the baby, especially at a young age or even nap time. Forward facing allows the baby to interact and see the world and there is even an option to lay the baby flat in a bassinet type seating. This is an absolutely amazing feature for infants. Having the capability as well as the different options for seat arrangements makes this stroller the only one you'll need during your child's journey! There is a small con in the fact that there is very little under basket storage. A diaper bag will fit there at most. The only other con I see in this stroller is a big one with the opening and closing of the stroller. In order to open the stroller, you have to put your foot on the back of the basket and push down with your foot while simultaneously pulling up on the handle. I'm pretty fit and flexible and this was difficult for me. Unfortunately, our nanny does not have the same fitness level.

First off, this stroller is GORGEOUS. The "desert wonder" color is a beautiful sandy tone. I was worried it would show dirt easily, but it has enough texture that it isn't a problem. The leather accents are luxurious and the frame is sturdy and attractive. Not only is the Tayla beautiful, it is super functional. I have a five month old and we LOVE the "quick carriage" feature. I have never seen it on a stroller before, and it is genius! You don't need to worry about a separate bassinet/carriage module; instead, the seat instantly converts into a lay-flat bassinet. This is perfect for our baby...she likes to sit up and see the world, but eventually gets tired, so we can lay her down flat with no hassle.The removal/reversible cushion is also genius. This can be easily removed, washed, and replaced. The stroller has nice extras. The canopy is amazing. It provides tons of coverage plus has a "peekaboo" panel that affords baby some fresh air and gives parents a look at baby. A cupholder and carseat adapter are included (usually you have to pay extra for these!). They even include a rain cover (also great for wind)! If you are on rough terrain like gravel, you can lock the front wheels for better maneuverability. It has a nice-sized storage basket that fits a small diaper tote and daily essentials. You can adjust the height of the handle, which was a nice feature for my taller husband. If I could change two things, it would be the ease of unfolding/folding the stroller and the space it takes up in the trunk. I had a little bit of difficulty with folding. It wasn't super intuitive and it takes me a few tries. It's also not the most compact to travel with and takes up a decent amount of space in my SUV. Overall, this is a beautiful and very functional stroller, especially for an infant. It's my new "stroll the neighborhood" stroller and I'm very happy with it! Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this stroller!

I received this product through the Stellar Product Testing Panel and have to say it has some great features. My favorite is the relatively small space this takes up when folded and stood upright! Any space saving feature is essential when living in a smaller house. The stroller was very easy to push and maneuver throughout our urban neighborhood sidewalks and up and down curbs. It was also great on our weekly visits to the zoo! The mesh fabric seems like it will wear well. The large canopy is a great feature and must have for weather protection! A few things to note: if your child is on the taller side, this might not be the best stroller for you. Without an extension on the canopy length, you're limited. My kiddo is an average height and his head comes close to the top of the canopy. Expect a small learning curve when opening and collapsing this stroller—it's a little difficult to open up but once you get the hang of it, it's smooth sailing.

RECOMMEND FOR:This is a great stroller for moms of 1 kid, who have the backpack diaper bag, are drinking the latest seasonal brew and are using the stroller for a run near naptime. TRAVELING Mama says: more for light use than everyday While there are 4 modes of seating available, we mostly used the bassinet and sitting straight up all of these in parent facing ( which means you have to change the seat to front facing before folding it down for the car). It was BEYOND EASY to switch from sitting up to laying down and back up again! ( one handed!) The 360 degree extending canopy is superior to other luxury models, it can go half way and then if the sun is in the other direction, unzip and fold to block from the other side!! This is great for walks where the sun peeps in as the kid is falling asleep and can block from any angle! It's easy to see the kid while strolling, but I use parent facing options, so I can usually see them! The reverse cushion is superior to other luxury strollers in my opinion. Specifically, I'm able to take it out and wash out the days snack/ milk without having to fiddle with a whole seat or linen. This is better than my other double kid stroller! The cushion is soft and warm and can be reversed ( which we haven't used as it's colder out) for winter. My toddlers favorite part of the stroller is the privacy canopy, she loves to hop in and pretend she's sleeping and asks for privacy. I love how it is zippered in and stays with the canopy ( one less thing to remember to bring or not have when you need it!) I also love how light the stroller frame is for lifting in and out of the car. I was given this stroller to try as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel, and while it has a better canopy and bassinet to our current stroller, because it is a singleton stroller I will not be making the switch to it being my full time. Dislike how unstable the frame feels Love the canopy, how light the frame is and the privacy shade.
