We just got ours about 3 months ago, in prep for our disney trip. I must say, I got ours on clearance at Target, so I paid less than some.... I might have a harder time swallowing the purchase of two of them if we had paid $200 bucks for them.
When the kids were younger (they are now 4.5 and 22 months) I would have missed some of the full-size stroller amenities (tray, full recline, padded, cushy, etc). But for the non-infant crowd (about 12mo on up) its great.
But part of what I LOVE about the volo is that it is missing those things the other strollers have. It is SO LIGHT and small folded up because of this. And so easy to turn. With dd, isnt not as obvious that it pushes easier. But when I put my 4 year old in one of our older strollers, it pushes hard. I can easily spin the volo in circles one handed with him riding. The idea of hauling around our old Graco Quattro anymore is awful! NTM, in the old travel stroller we had, he could no longer use the sunshade, as he was too tall. He still has many inches in the volo.
And the Mac's are just so NICE looking! Almost like an accessory, not a stroller, kwim?
But back to the original question: What dont I like?
It would be nice if it had a recline option. But if I wanted that bad enough I could have spent the $$ on a more expensive mac, which I didnt. But it would be nice.
Another negative, Mine is light grey. I do have to scrub the scuff marks off the hood when I lay it on the ground in parking lots when loading my car. I might get a different color if I had to do it again so it would camoflauge the dirt a bit more!
Re: Taller parents
The handles are SO MUCH higher than our old travel stroller (it was called a graco umbroller - they dont make them anymore). The handles are seriously inches higher. When we first got these, my ds said 'strollers are for babies". So we put the mac next to the old stroller and showed him it was for 'big boys' at disney, and he has been fighting to ride in it now every time dd does. It really is noticably taller. Go to Target or BRU and take one for a test drive.
If you are planning a trip, I cannot say enough about how valuable I can see these being with the transportation and storing in the room- especially with the new prices for rentals there
HTH!
