Mac Volo and napping??

[LLMommy]

Yes, I know, another dreaded stroller/Maclaren thread. I am sorry but I am debating whether or not to get 2 Volos for my 3.5 year old DS and 1.5 year old DD or two Jeep umbrella strollers that have recline. I haven't test driven either but I am worried about napping in the Volo b/c it doesn't have recline. Anyone have experience w/ this? Also, does anyone have the Jeep umbrella stroller w/ recline? My 3.5DS is very small so weight limit doesn't matter (27lbs). TIA!

My Son was almost 3 when we went to DL and he napped in his VOLO. He is a a big boy (tall and heavy)
Here is a pic of him napping during the parade

If it's a Mac you want don't go with the Volo. There are other models that recline more than that one. Try the Quest. Never seen the Jeep one so I can't comment. I would want more of a recline for at least the littlest one. 1.5 is still little to me. You know your kids though, do they sleep sitting up in the car seat? If so then they may be fine in the Volo.

My DD slept fine in the Volo, but she was 6 and 7 at the time. I would definately get a reclining Mac for the little one. I have the Quest and LOVE it for my 6 mo old. You can get a Volo for about $79 and a Quest for about $110, and free shipping
I ordered mine from www.albeebaby.com

Personally I would not pay extra just to have it recline. Most kids I've seen when they are tired they sleep wherever they are. My 2 year old fell asleep in his volo the other day and it was fine. I've seen kids sleep in odder positions. Sometimes I've seen kids fall asleep at the table eating!! Trust me, if they are tired enough they will sleep.
