Is the Peg Perego Volo Cabin Stroller the Lightest Stroller in the UK Right Now?
When parents search for “lightweight stroller UK” or “cabin approved buggy under 6kg”, they usually want one thing:
Something genuinely light. Not “light for a travel system.” Not “light compared to last year’s model.” Actually light.
At just 5.4kg, the Peg Perego Volo Cabin Stroller is one of the lightest full-featured strollers available in the UK today — and very possibly the lightest in its class that’s:
-
✅ Suitable from birth to 22kg
-
✅ Cabin approved (hand luggage size fold)
-
✅ Includes travel bag
-
✅ Includes raincover
-
✅ Features full suspension & ball bearings
Let’s break it down properly.
Why Weight Matters More Than You Think
Most parents don’t realise how important stroller weight becomes until:
-
You’re lifting it into an overhead locker ✈️
-
You’re carrying it up Preston train station steps
-
You’re folding it one-handed while holding a toddler
-
You’re packing it into a tiny car boot
At 5.4kg, the Volo is lighter than many “compact” competitors sitting at 6.5–8kg.
That 1–2kg difference?
You feel it. Especially after a long day.
Cabin Approved – What Does That Actually Mean?
The Volo folds to:
44.5 x 50 x 25 cm
That’s genuinely hand-luggage size.
It:
-
Stands upright when folded
-
Comes with a travel bag with backpack straps
-
Is narrow at just 50cm wide
-
Fits easily through airport security
For families flying from Manchester or Liverpool, this is a serious travel advantage.
Ultra-Light… But Is It Still Comfortable?
This is where some ultra-light buggies fall short.
Not the Volo.
You still get:
-
⭐ Adjustable backrest
-
⭐ Adjustable footrest
-
⭐ UV50 hood
-
⭐ Front bumper bar
-
⭐ Large shopping basket
-
⭐ All-wheel suspension with ball bearings
It doesn’t feel flimsy. It feels engineered.
That’s classic Peg Perego.
From Birth to 22kg – Not Just a Holiday Buggy
Many ultra-light strollers only go to 15kg.
The Volo is certified from birth up to 22kg, meaning:
-
Newborn naps ✔
-
Toddler park trips ✔
-
School runs ✔
-
Holidays ✔
This isn’t a “second stroller.”
For many families, it becomes the main stroller.
How Does It Compare to Other Lightweight Strollers?
While brands like Babyzen, Joie and Silver Cross offer compact options, very few combine:
-
Sub-6kg weight
-
Birth to 22kg approval
-
Cabin-size fold
-
Travel bag included
-
Suspension system
All in one package.
That’s why we genuinely believe this could be the lightest fully-featured cabin stroller in the UK right now.
