Maclaren Volo Silver - Umbrella Stroller Review Summary

The Maclaren Volo Silver Umbrella Stroller is the new age umbrella stroller. It is sturdy, lightweight, easy to maneuver and fold, and has a canopy to shield your little one from the sun. Our reviewers really like this stroller and find it handy for all kinds of situations. The stroller fits infants all the way up to preschoolers so you won't be outgrowing this one in a few months! It's a tad pricier than traditional umbrella strollers but all of our reviewers agree that it is well worth the cost. Looking for other stroller reviews? We've got a load of them for you to read and compare!

I'm a firm believer in high quality, well-built, lightweight stroller systems. One buggy, our hero...the Maclaren Volo Silver — New Age Buggy! — The Maclaren Volo is made from a lightweight aluminum alloy,the feel/stability of the stroller frame is nothing like traditional umbrella strollers, it's sturdy, substantial, and doesn't wobble. The metal frame is stainless, rustproof and dent resistant. The handles are affixed separately, making them ergonomic for any height of user. The stroller is designed to hold a maximum weight of 55 pounds, and a… read full review »

I LOVE this stroller!!  I will start off by saying I am a BIG fan of Maclaren strollers. You just can't beat them for the durability you get for the price. I have 5 children so I have had my fair share of strollers. I have never been a fan of the plastic *raco type strollers as they are not well made and fall apart easily. Mac strollers are not like that at all!!  The volo is definetly one of my favorites. It is incredibly light weight, folds down to nothing at the drop of a hat and can be slung over your shoulder to get on buses and things at amusement parks. The wheels on these… read full review »

We were on a quest for a lightweight stroller for our big 3 year old for a recent trip to Disney.  Anyone who has gone knows the nightmare of trying to fold up a huge stroller on the buses to the parks.  Anyone who has gone also knows that even a three year old needs a stroller in Disney.  So we needed to find one that would fit a bigger three year - almost 40 pounds.  This Maclaren is AWESOME!  The US version (there is apparently a different type sold in the UK) is built to hold up to 45-50 pounds...so we were in luck.  It only weighs 6 pounds and is so… read full review »

This stroller is perfect for big city living. I live in New York and it's great to have a light, sturdy stroller that's easy to get up and down subway stairs and in and out of taxis. — — Buy this stroller if you want something that lasts. — — I had a cheap $20 umbrella stroller that I only used for 3 months that started to have problems. Also the handles were too low. I did a lot of research and also noticed the Maclarens in our neighborhood. It's a bit expensive, but well worth the cost. — It has exceeded my expectations. I only wish it came with a rain… read full review »

I love this stroller.  I can get it out of the trunk and opened up with one hand -- very important since my son will take off the second I put him down!  I like the mesh material, as it seems to keep him cool on hot days.  I wish it reclined, as he can't fall asleep in it, and the canopy thing gets filthy when I fold it up with the canopy still attached.  But, overall, this stroller is well worth the high price tag.  Plus, it's chic-looking… read full review »

My son absolutely adores this stroller!! He hated the travel system stroller he had, he would never last more than a few minutes in it.  With the Maclaren it seems like he would sit in it forever.  I love how easy it opens and closes.  We bought it because we were going on a trip and would be taking this through the airport.  The attached carrying strap and it being so lightweight make it perfect for travelling! … read full review »

I love my Volo! I wouldn't have purchased it initally, but I received it as a gift. It seemed expensive at the time, but it was well worth the money. It is much easier to push than other "umbrella" strollers, it's very lightweight, and it holds up well over time. After four years of constaqnt use, I think I will have to replace mine only because the wheels are beginning to wear down, but I could probably go another year if I had to.… read full review »

This carriage is great for my four year old who is bigger than most.  I love how light the carriage is and would recommend it to anyone.  The under basket is great and very roomy.  I have the carriage in silver but would love to see if they have other colors - preferably darker.  I also like how high the handles are - less stress on the… read full review »

Great stroller for parents over 5'6. Silver color canopy does dirty easily - mainly from the wheels when it is folded after a trip. Very sturdy. Tall handles. Lightweight. Storage basket good for small objects or jackets. Best for taller babies that sit up well - over 1… read full review »
