General Comments
My daughter is approaching 3 years of age and doesn't require a large pushchair with recline or leg rest anymore, but does often require a buggy to rest in if we are going for long walks. The Maclaren Volo is ideal, as it is very basic, but it does the job perfectly for us.



It really is a buggy suitable for an older toddler who no longer requires a nap, as with no recline, a young child falling asleep in it could result in a painful neck, as the head will roll forward.



It's also superb for travel with an older child, flying, and the underground can be easily achieved with this. The fabric of the pushchair, being of a mesh design, keeps your child cool in the summer in foreign climes.

It is easily kept clean and it has the required five piece harness for child security.



If your child is still napping or quite tiny, then I would not choose this, but go for the Quest or Triumph models, which have recline; and with the Quest a leg rest too.



The Volo is an excellent choice for a holiday/older toddler buggy.
