Maclaren has the best umbrella stroller available! I have 2 small children and own 2 Maclaren Volo's. I have double strollers, but at times it's much easier for my husband and I to each get a child. That's why I decided to buy 2 of the volo's. I don't think there is a more light-weight stroller out there. It is compact and has a strap for easy hauling when collapsed. It's nice having a hood and storage basket on this type of stroller. Many cheaper umbrella strollers do not come with a hood nor storage space. I highly recommend the Maclaren Volo!!!

I have used at least five types of strollers, including the Sit-n-Stand, Joovy Caboose, the Graco travel system, and the Babies-r-us umbrella stroller, and I feel like based on factors like portability, ease of use, durability, and features, this is probably one of the best strollers on the market. It folds up easily, and unfolds with just the flip of a latch. It is lightweight, yet surprisingly durable (as long as you don't try to carry it up a flight of stairs out of the subway with your kid in it...and even then, I only had one screw come loose, that was easy enough to screw back in when I got home. It also has a strap that allows you to carry the stroller over your shoulder for situations like when you have to get on the bus. As much as I liked the cheapo umbrella stroller for bus trips because it folds up really small, it doesn't stand up to abuse as much as this stroller.

Very light, very flexible. Easy to assemble. Great noticeable color too. Cover is waterproof. Cup holder is probably the only thing missing on it that can be optionally purchased.

I love this stroller! It is great for traveling! I love that it has a space to hold some small items on the bottom.

This is a great umbrella stroller. Albeit expensive. It folds and unfolds very easily and is very portable. The only gripe I have with it is the buckle. It is incredibly difficult to undo and it took me a long time and a lot of finger pain to get it off the first time. For the price I would have expected a better oiled mechanism.

Sot there is no question that this stroller is the lightest out there and great for tall parents. The problem is that the basket below isn't all the functional (I walk to the store a lot) and the sun shade doesn't move. My daughter likes to look around so clipping a blanket to it doesn't really work for her and it's annoying- we've had 2 others that we returned b/c we are both tall but I would rather hunch over and kick the basket than constantly be trying to figure out how to get the sun out of her eyes.
