good for taller mums
Parent Panel review by carolyn
- review date 12 August 2005
This buggy is not quite tall enough for my 6 foot tall OH, but great for me (5'10). It's a dream to push and steer and is very lightweight. It folds up small so doesn't take up much room, comes with a nice'n'roomy basket, but no sunshade. Novices have a bit of trouble collapsing it, though it's easy when you know how!
| Best Feature: Height / pushability |
| Worst Feature: Only one sitting position |
| Verdict: Basic, but well made and would recommend |

"Fantastic Lightweight buggy"
I bought the Maclaren Volo because I use public transport a lot and needed a lightweight buggy that was easy to fold and light to lift complete with toddler and shopping! This one fits the bill perfectly and looks really stylish too. The one I bought came complete with hood/sun canopy and raincover although I understand some places sell the buggy without these extras if working to a budget. On the whole a brilliant value for money buggy!(And believe me, I've tried a few over the years!)

"Maclaren Volo"
Fantastic. The first time we used it we could not believe a buggy could be so easy to use. It was so easy to push, fold and carry. We took it on two holidays this summer, i dont know what we would have done without it. We spoke to a few people at the airport from America with the Volo they asked me to tell Baby World they also think the volo is fantastic and value for money.

"Light, cheap great little pushchair!"
I have had alot of pushchairs in my time and always end up having to buy a light weight pushchair when my children have gotten bigger.
The volo is excellent! Its super light and comes in some great colours (Mine is pink!). Also you don't have to buy the acessory packs for it, but if you do and after a while there's wear and tear you can always replace them again by buying another one.
I am 5ft5 and my husband is over 6ft and we both had no problems with this pushchair height, it is a smooth ride and perfect for people on a budget due to its cheap price and great for all modes of transport and smaller cars.

"Great for travel and town!"
Bought on sale at kiddicare and has become a great investment. Replaced more bulky pram as it is lightweight, folds quickly and easily and daughter seems to like it. Now looking for double buggy...

"Great city stroller!"
We don't have a car, so we wanted a small, lightweight, easy to fold/transport stroller with a shopping basket that offered a smooth ride. The Volo fits all these requirements in spades! It weighs less than 10 lbs, easily folds and can be carried over the shoulder like a bag. A dream for bus travel! The only thing I think they should improve are the breaks as they are awkward and flat out uneffective. I have heard this from most people who have used one. Also, if they could make a rain hood that folds with the stroller rather than having to carry it seperately would be great, too!

"Great Lightweight Buggy"
An excellent lightweight buggy - we use this in all weathers as Maclaren sell an accessory pack with a hood, rain cover and padded seat cover. It's great in London as is so lightweight to use on the tubes and buses and also has a carry strap when folded.
