Going to Disney in October. We have a cheap umbrella stroller we bought my daughter when she was 2(shes 8 now) and it is finally falling apart-the plastic footrest is broken.
So I'm looking into buying another, but I want opinions. I want a light, easy to fold stroller. It has to have a bag(for carrying stuff I buy in WDW!) I'd like a cup holder, but can't find one on a umbrella stroller. It needs to sit up well, and recline well(big 2 year old boy) and have a canopy for naps in the hot florida sun :sunny:
Any suggestions would be appreciated!!

I love my Maclaren Quest. It doesn't have a cup holder, but you can buy one to clip on it. It has a small underneath basket and a canopy. I bought mine on ebay and found a good deal. I also have a Maclaren Volo, but it doesn't recline or have a basket. Maclaren also makes a triumph which is inbetween the Volo and Quest. Many people LOVE their Maclarens.

I bought the Maclaren Triumph specifically for my upcoming Disney trip. So far I've been very happy with it. It is light, maneuvers easily, and has a strap on the back to make carrying easier. I just hope no one walks away with it while we're in WDW.

I have a Graco Picnic Pals stroller. We have a big travel system stroller, but we wanted something smaller for when we go to the zoo, sicne the travel system stroller was too big, and took up a lot of room in the trunk. Our friends recommended it, and for the price (40.00) it's great! Cup holder, recline, basket, and very lightweight. I think you can check it out at BabiesRus.com, under lightweight strollers. It has all of the features of a bigger stroller, but not the added weight and isn't as cumbersome. Good Luck! :earsgirl:

I vote for the MacLaren. I wish I had found these years ago and maybe I wouldnt have gone through so many cheaper models that didnt hold up. You may pay a few dollars more, but it is a great investment and it is a great stroller. We have the volo. It doesnt recline like the previous poster said, but it does have a basket underneath. Good luck shopping!! :flower:
