4.0 out of 5 stars
A good 2nd stroller for 1+ yr olds but light color is a huge minus,
This review is from: Maclaren Volo Stroller (Baby Product)
IMPORTANT - The CPSC & Maclaren had a voluntary recall in November 2009 of 1 million Maclaren strollers sold in the US -- all its production between 1999 and November 2009---after receiving 12 reports of hinges on the stroller that amputated children's fingertips.To be on the safe side verify production date on the stroller frame and order a free hinge cover from Maclaren's web site or phone line if your stroller does not come with one already (new ones being sold should). Wait until you install the hinge cover before using the stroller. *** This is good "second stroller" for quick errands, public transportation, or when you have very little room in your car. I would not use it as my main stroller because it doesn't recline, and cannot give it five stars because for the same price you can get a lightweight full-feature stroller you may use more. PROS: - UPDATE 2011: I'm glad to see the black color is available again - I've changed my ratings to four stars on this one as it's a great durable color. Beware of the light canopy colors which shows dirt easily, not something you want with rough 'n tumble travel needs (I wonder if this is on purpose so you'll replace it sooner. New it looks great, after several months of use, not so much). - Ultralight - Very compact when folded up. - Has a carry strap, so it's easy to just throw over your shoulder if you need to carry your baby & diaper bag or if your toddler wants to walk. You can literally pick it up with one finger and barely feel the weight when carrying it. - For "minimalist" travel, you can put a Roundabout or Marathon in it, tie it with a bungee cord (without the child inside) and push it one-handed while carrying your child, with a backpack. Good option if traveling alone. - Easy to clean plastic mesh seat. - The canopy is larger than the Maclaren Triumph's, but you may still need a sun canopy. - 55 lb capacity - No cupholder and a tiny basket but it works well with a Maclaren organizer. The price creeps up with this, of course. - Quick one-hand hold while holding your baby. - To make it more comfortable for your child, you can try finding a 2007 light grey liner, rain shield and travel bag in a separate Maclaren Volo accessory pack. (You may even find an all black one from previous years - rare though). Once added on though - with the organizer, more money; take a look at the Inglesina Trip or Maclaren Quest - almost the same price with every feature you could possibly want and only a few pounds heavier (see below). Cons: - Hefty price for a simple-looking stroller, but worth it if your main concerns are weight, weight, weight, quality and durability. - The light canopy can get dirty easily. If possible, opt for a Volo with a black canopy, as you may have the wheels (and whatever's stuck on them) rubbing up against it when closed (you can place a washcloth between the wheels and canopy but that's besides the point). - More suitable for babies a year and older because the harness is a little large and there's really not a lot of support. It's very much like a hammock. - The harness can be adjusted but may be too loose for smaller babies. You can "tighten" it further by putting the harness straps thru the lowest slot in the mesh seat and pulling the plastic ends thru the next hole up, towards the front, but this is a makeshift solution. - It doesn't recline. You can add a pair of 'cradlers' to help support your baby's head once he falls asleep. My baby doesn't seem to mind but it doesn't look really comfortable. Do not fold up the stroller with these on. - No peek-a-boo window to check on baby - The wheels are very small and designed for smooth surfaces. It gives a bumpy ride elsewhere and doesn't handle cobblestone, gravel, or sand well at all. But that's when you just carry your child with the Volo over your shoulder. If you are looking for a stroller that reclines that you can use everyday and still travel with, I highly recommend the Inglesina Trip (15 lbs with all accessories) or the Maclaren Quest (13.5 lbs with all accessories). Both have 4-position deep reclines, adjustable footrests, rain shields, storage baskets, washable liners, reflective accents, carry handles and easy one hand two-step fold. Neither one has a snack tray or bar (for that you need to get a full-size stroller) but reality is, it's safer to not have your baby munching on food while you're not seeing his face (if they start choking you may not hear them, they don't always cough). The sturdy Inglesina 2011 Trip Ergonomic Stroller, Ink is the best stroller I've tested so far. It has the advantage of having a large waterproof canopy with visor, a navy color in a rugged but comfortable heavy-duty material that hides wear and dirt, reflective trim (for dusk), see-through window on top, rain shield that stores easily in the canopy, tall handles, 6.5" inch wheels and all-wheel suspension to better handle bumpy terrain. It is 2" longer and 1" wider than the Volo when folded up due to it's larger wheels and padded seat. For 2011, maximum child weight has been increased to 55 lbs (even though the manual hasn't been updated), giving Maclaren a real run for the money. The sophisticated Maclaren Quest Sport Stroller, Black and Champagne is lighter in weight but has no suspension, a window in back, and its smaller canopy is only water resistant. The lighter colors also show dirt more. Its child weight capacity is 55 lbs, like the Volo. Another good lightweight travel stroller is the Maclaren Triumph Stroller, Charcoal and Silver. It reclines, but not as deeply, which makes it more suitable for older children. The size of the canopy is also smaller. You can always add a sun shield of course (black or navy only). Some parents like the slightly less expensive Combi Flex Lightweight Full-Sized Tri-fold Stroller in Black/Wasabi; I found it not as sturdy and harder to fold. Nonetheless, it's a good alternative if you're looking for a travel stroller, especially because of its 55 lb maximum weight. Another stroller you might want to check out is the UPPAbaby G-Luxe Stroller, Green Maddy, sold in several colors. It's marketed as the lightest full-feature stroller on the market and highly rated by others. It's very light but I prefer the Trip and Quest only because the maximum child weight on the G-Luxe is 40 lbs, less than others which cost the same. Lastly, beware of weight listed as it refers to "bare weight" without any accessories. A lot of sites forget to add these on - and of course you'll rarely go out without them! In all, the Volo is a great 2nd stroller, as is, but if you want more features you can either start adding them or you can find them in other strollers for the same price. Shop around and if you really want a Volo, look for the black canopy so it will look better longer.

Good second stroller but there are better options,

5.0 out of 5 stars
proven champion,
By Getchen "Gretchen" (California) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Maclaren Volo Stroller (Baby Product)
I bought my first Maclaren Volo as a baby shower present for my sister 4 years ago when she had her first baby. I purchased it as a fluke from a discount store for only 49.00. At the time I knew nothing about babies and strollers. All I knew was that it was unique design and for a good price. I also noticed how sturdy it looked and how functional its lightweight frame and mesh seat were in comparison to other umbrella strollers on the market. From that time on my sister was hooked on the Maclaren brand after she found it to be highly maneuverable, lightweight and sturdy in comparison to other umbrella strollers on the market. Four years later and having served three babies in my sister's family that same Maclaren is still in perfect condition having endured numerous vacations all over the country and on trips around the world. It is still in use for even her 4 year old to this very day. It is needless to say that all the strollers she owns are made by Maclaren.When it came time to have my own baby, I knew what stroller to get. I have purchased my own for a lot more than the $49.00 I paid 4 years ago but my new generation Volo is still worth every penny. You cannot even compare its lightweight and construction quality to the other umbrella strollers on the market. Every detail on this stroller has been well thought out by the manufacturer and withstands the test of time. 2115|R2543X9B08655A;2115|R17R8Q1SWL9CG;2115|RKXNBHW5HZ8KD;
