The Maclaren Volo was introduced in April 2002. Its suitable for babies from 6 months old. My wife used on like it occaisionally when our daughter was 4 1/2 months, for when a bigger pram was too inconvenient. Its best feature is its weight, or lack of it. At 3.8kg or 8.2lb, its the lightest buggy on the market. It also has a carrying strap which makes it ideal for carrying onto a bus. The only thing to be careful of when using the strap is that the buggy wheels might scrape on your clothes. A lot of buggies, are too heavy to be able to carry easily as well as a baby, and their bulk makes them difficult to store on a bus. However, the light weight also makes ...  Read the complete review

Our pushchair experimentation continues as we await the safe replacement of our old, sadly damaged Stokke XPlory, this time with the MacLaren Volo. The Maclaren Volo Stroller was designed for travel and for use in urban areas. It's extremely lightweight at only 8 pounds in weight, rides smoothly, folds easily and includes a carrying strap that lets you throw it over your shoulder, although you still end up with marks on your trousers from the dirt on the wheels. It also has an easy to clean, removable mesh seat that babies seem to find pretty comfortable and that also makes it a great option for the beach if you're off on your holidays, as most sand will ...  Read the complete review

Maclaren volo I adore this buggy and owned 2 as its fab for public transport and bus been taken on train and bus. At first veiw seems bit basic as suitable from 6months as no recline and small wheels compared with other maclaren models. Its very light to carry and push and comes with handy shoulder strap, hood easily removes and raincover ok. Despite recline my daughter still slept in it and is a dream with heavy toddler. The basket is an ok size and few bags on handles ok and not prone to tipping unless overloaded. The brakes are at feet which is good and handles a decent height not too low or too high. Its a ...  Read the complete review

i really wanted to get the maclaren volo when choosing buggies for a holiday when my son was just a few months old but did not consider the volo because it said only suitable for babies 6 months and over. initially i purchased the maclaren daytripper (see seperate review). however last year, i had the opportunity to get a really good deal with boots online and decided to finally buy the volo and it was the best decision i made! i bought the carbon (black) coloured one because i thought it looked really trendy and was suitable for either a boy or a girl. the other colours now available in the 2004 range are; silver, pale blue, oyster, tanstripe and bluestripe. ...  Read the complete review

I have used this pram for two years now and I am very impressed with how it has lasted in comparison to previous prams I have had. The pram is used on a near on daily basis and apart from the fabric now looking a bit grubby the pram is in excellent condition. The pram is very lightweight and can easily be pushed one handed, even with my big 3 year old in the pram it is very easy to push. The pram folds up to a very small size which is great for taking on public transport and good for cars with small boots. It also has a carry stap on the back which can come in handy. The pram has a decent sized shopping basket and can carry a couple of shopping bags on the handles ..  Read the complete review
