Is The Maclaren Volo Really The Lightweight Stroller It's Cracked Up To Be?

by ClaireJames

The Maclaren Volo lightweight Stroller is compact enough for life on the go and also sturdy enough to hold baby and your day's supplies, and is the perfect stroller if you are looking for that second stroller to take to the shops and for quick errands with your child.

There are some fantastic additions that offer complete convenience and the carry strap and one hand fold mechanism make this buggy as easy to travel with as say an umbrella, and it's almost as light! As a parent with two children I can tell you assuredly that as wonderful as the big prams are with all their bells and whistles, you really need the convenience of a lightweight and easy to deal with stroller. When you are holding one screaming child and another is running off down the carpark it's nice to be able to put the stroller in the boot with one hand! Just check out some of the amazing comments and customer feedback on the Maclaren Volo lightweight Strollers here

The Maclaren Volo Stroller is the lightest of all the Maclaren umbrella stroller range, weighing in at a measly 8.6lbs! I believe that was the same weight as my first born, and that is just incredible to think they can make something that safe and reliable and keep it under 9 pounds.

All Maclaren strollers exceed international safety standards and come with a lifetime guarantee on the build quality and parts and the Volo is no exception. Your child will be completely safe at all times because of the sturdy aeronautical quality aluminum frame and foot operated parking brakes.

All these benefits are capped off by the additional features that just go on and on. Some of them include the one hand fold mechanism of course and also the carry strap making this such an easy stroller to take literally anywhere, and it fits in the smallest places too

Other features of the Maclaren Volo Stroller include a5-Point safety harness for maximum security, Ergonomically optimized and foam insulated handles, compact umbrella fold action, Removable and washable seat and front swivel wheels.

Some of the additional features include a carry strap for easy portability and there is also a small mesh basket underneath and even though it is supposed to be 'small', you can fit an incredible amount of things in it. The only drawback is when the seat is fully reclined and then it is hard to access.

Oh, and a raincover is included even though it has a water resistant hood, but that's Maclaren for you, always going the extra step to make their products the best.

Maclaren Volo Stroller Specifications are as following: One seat position, weight: 8.6 lbs (without hood, shopping basket or rain cover), Maximum weight capacity: 55 lbs. Age: 3 months and up.

I definitely advise that you go and at least check out the amazing features of the Maclaren range!
