Maclaren Volo or Mothercare Mino for my 15 month old

Hello
Just wondered if anyone could recommend either over the other? I am torn. They are both the same price (ish). The Volo is lighter but doesn't recline. The Mino reclines. I really just want to downsize to something smaller and more lighweight than my Maclaren Techno XT which I've used since birth.
Any advice greatly appreciated!
Thanks

the volo- i love the macs. my kids used volo from about a year onwards and the seat is quite slouchy so the recline wasn't missed at all. its super duper light and i just cant fault the mac build quality. plust itll have better resale value. my volo is now 6 yrs old (mesh seat) and i use it for dd2 (3yrs) on holidays or a mega quick whizz in supermarket/ nursery. the mesh seat is great if bub drops liquid/ food on it as it just washes away and dries in a jiffy. but this really is an old scholl mac! have used it to death and it still looks great.
go for the mac.
you wont regreat it :)

Thanks for the replies!
I was edging towards the Volo just because you know you're getting good quality with a Maclaren. You might have just tipped me over Sammy!
