Orlando stroller rentals-4 year old??? - The DIS Discussion Forums

magicmoments09 · 09-19-2009, 11:00 PM

Hi guys! I was wondering if any of you have ever rented one of their single mini strollers for a very tall 4 year old, and if so, was it comfortable for him or her? My daughter is about 45 inches tall, 42 pounds. She hasn't used a stroller in over a year, and I took her to try out a cheap umbrella stroller at wal-mart today for the trip. Her feet were touching the ground. I appreciate any of your input!

I haven't rented it from them but I own a bjcm and I use it daily for my 6yr and my 9yr old even jumps in it sometimes but they fit well and are w/in the same measurements of you 4yr old maybe a little taller.

We used their city mini double stroller for my 2 boys. There were 4yo and 40in/43lbs and 6yo 48in/48lbs. Both of them fit very comfortably and liked riding in the stroller. Your daughter will fit just fine!! Their strollers are fabulous, I have rented a double from them twice now.

We just got back from WDW and rented the double citi mini stroller from Orlando Stroller rentals. My son is 3 1/2 and over 40 inches tall and fit very well into it. I think you should be fine. Excellent strollers.

Last time we went to Disney we rented a stroller for my son who was 6 1/2 at the time. He is tall but skinny and was very comfortable in the stroller. He hasn't used a stroller in years (since he was 3 or so) but, we knew that Disney would be a lot of walking so we rented one just in case, it was the best money we ever spent. DS is normally a very active child and seems like he is on speed most of the time

, and he never ever naps but, he actually napped almost every afternoon while in Disney in the stroller. Just think about how much walking you do in Disney and then double it because that's what it feels like to his little legs, he has to take 2 steps for each one of yours. My DS wlked a good part of the time but, when he got tired or just wanted to relax he hopped in the stroller. His favorite part was that his older sister pushed him around like his "servant"!
