Two years ago, we went with our then 6 year and 4 year old. My husband refused to rent a stroller, because he believed they were too big. Needless to say they really did great. Though, the last day, while waiting at the TTC my 6year old was not feeling well, so when we got into MK I rented a stroller. Best decision of my life! She was able to ride a bit and began to feel better then later the kids actually doubled up and it was great for them (this was our last day and I think all the walking and running finally was catching up with them. Also, they had a good seat for the Electric Parade down main street that night.

It just depends on your kids - see how they are feeling, go with it and you won't torment yourself.
 
We just got back yesterday. :( We used a stroller for my DS6 on the last two days because he ended up with a blister on his baby toe and had to wear his sandals and I was worried that too much walking (MK and WS) would further aggravate his feet. He did fine. However, the 9YO was upset because he had to walk.

It was also nice to be able to have some storage and walk freely through the park with no backpack.
 
My Ds's are 5 and 7. I purchased the stroller specifically for use at WDW as my boys never really used one at home. It is kept in its original box and we just check it when we fly.

Dh didnt want to use it, but it was a lifesaver on the evenings that he went to ESPN to watch the NBA finals and the boys and I wanted to return to the parks for the parades, fireworks, or Fantasmic.
The parks were very busy and It was nice not to stress about my 5 year old lagging behind. I agree with it being a nice place to store your daypack also.

I saw many parents carrying their sleeping children out of the parks and onto the ferry, while mine were napping in their stroller. I have a bad wrist, so carrying is not an option. We didnt do commando touring, and took breaks during the day but all the excitement and standing in lines affects them differently.

I will definitely take it next year too. It's a Safari TT Jogger type and it holds up to 100 pounds.
 
Our thoughts are if they fit put them in it. Who cares the age. It's tough enough for us adults to walk around, but we would probably see half of what we want to with them walking and whining about walking. And you have got the love the fact of having a place to store stuff. Without the stroller you will be carrying that stuff. Take it!! Rent it!!!
