The Mercedes of Strollers - The Maclaren VoloI’d suffered through over a year of our horrible Evenflo stroller. The design was so poor that there was very little I liked about it, even though it was used every few weeks at most. Determined to find something better, I quickly came across... read entire review
- Pros: light, easy to push, great turning radius
- Cons: expensive
- The Bottom Line: If you need an umbrella stroller more than once a year, this should be your first choice.

To Volo or Not To Volo - That is the questionNow that my daughter is getting older, her stroller needs are changing. At times she is more than willing to ride in a stroller, other times she rather just walk. I was finding that taking her stroller into and out of the car becoming more and more of... read entire review
- Pros: Lightweight, Easy to steer

The Maclaren Volo – Highly Recommended When my daughter turned 2, we started looking for a new stroller. We had the Graco Sterling LiteRider Stroller, but we wanted to get a smaller, umbrella type stroller. We tried out some of the cheaper umbrella strollers and were really unhappy with... read entire review
- Pros: Lightweight, Easy to Use, Sturdy, Basket
- Cons: A bit Pricey.
- The Bottom Line: Although this is more expensive then the typical umbrella stroller, it is worth every penny. I highly recommend this stroller.

We bought this stroller before embarking on a trip east to visit parents, friends, etc. It's really a very handy gadget: easy to travel width, easy to fold up and fold out. We looked at the Combi travel-stroller and it just didn't seem as sturdy; nor was... read entire review

Works for baby and mama tooWe inherited a jogging stroller and a big Combi stroller. While the Combi was relatively light, it wasn't an umbrella stroller and was only practical when our son was in his infant carrier. The jogging stroller is great for long walks, but it isn't... read entire review
- Pros: Light but very capable
- Cons: No shade from sun.
- The Bottom Line: Top of the line, dependable, basic umbrella stroller to take that soon to be toddler into the future.

3/12/05 update My son is now 4 1/2 and we're STILL using this stroller. I keep it in the back of my car for those times when he falls asleep in the car and we need to be somewhere. He is a large boy - over 50lbs - and quite tall, and I'm sure this... read entire review
- Pros: Lightweight, easy to carry, maneuver, fold. Mesh seat, shoulder strap.
- Cons: price, no included sun shade
- The Bottom Line: I would highly recommend this stroller. The light weight and overall ease of use make it a great stroller not only for traveling, but for everyday use as well.

Volo - good entry-level MaclarenTwo kids, five car seats and four strollers later, we have finally figured out what works. We own a Maclaren Techno and Maclaren Volo. I will not review the Techno, because the version we have is no longer available (ours is the 2001 model). A... read entire review
- Pros: Small, extremely lightweight. Easy to clean, five-point harness.
- Cons: Becomes a bit costly to add accessories - like sun shade.
- The Bottom Line: The Volo is a great city stroller for older babies and toddlers.

Glad I bought this as my first umbrella strollerGuilty of stroller envy As a new mom, I eyed all the different strollers that were out in the market, and I had mad stroller envy when I would see anyone walking by with a Maclaren. I have a small car (see my other review on the... read entire review
- Pros: Small, lightweight, affordable.
- Cons: Too big for normal-sized 6 month old baby.
- The Bottom Line: I highly recommend this stroller because you get the Maclaren quality at such an affordable price.

great upgrade from an inexpensive umbrella strollerI purchased the Volo (in orange) as a lightweight stroller for travel. My son was 4 1/2 when we purchased it. Our regular stroller was a Peg Perego Pliko and I was looking for something a little easier to travel with now that my son was older. I... read entire review
- Pros: lightweight, great for travel, fun colors, rides well, nice upgrades
