Another Stroller Question - Weight Limits

[email_shell]

Are there any strollers out there, inexpensive ones, that can handle larger children? Mine are 7 and 5 being approximately 44 and 36 pounds. I know they are older and maybe should walk but I am going to save my sanity and their legs and stroller them around the parks.

I am trying to see what options I have in terms of inexpensive strollers I can bring with (either seperate umbrella or double). I have been looking at the inexpensive ones and they all seem to have a lower weight limits. Anyone with experience? If nothing else I will rent from OSR.

Thanks all!

I know it was a question that had probably been asked in the past with all of the stroller questions that go through the board. I guess I didnt look back far enough. Now I went back about 10 pages or so and found some posts that kind of covered my question. I looked to see if there was an option to delete this post and I couldnt figure it out. Sorry

I don't know how long you are going to be on vacation for, but OSR can be somewhat pricey and you can spend that $ on a stroller to have - it will also pay for itself if you plan on using it on future Disney trips. You can also try a one day rental at the theme park and see if the kids will even want to sit in the stroller...if you are going in the summer when it is super crowed a stroller will be good for the crowds. We bought the joovy kooper for both our kids because it will hold them up to 55 pounds..they were 178 a piece but I also got them on sale and used some coupons - it was worth it and we know we are going on many more trips. Good luck!

We have a BOB Revolution Duallie. Broke the bank on that purchase... but we LOVE IT! We borrowed one for our last two trips and swore we could never travel without a BOB again. It saved our lives!
We have 2 DDs 5 and 7 and a new baby.

It is very expensive- but a friend of mine just found one on Craig's list for $200. Wish I'd found that one- but I didn't think to check there.

Check Craig's list first!
