We're tring to decide on wheater to bring one with or not..and wanted to see what they looked like.

Thanks!

I don't have a pic, but they are joggers. They don't recline, they have a small pouch on the back for storing stuff, and a large canopy. We rented one recently, and we were really pleased with it. They steer REALLY well. My DD was comfortable in it all day long.

How much does it cost to rent the stroller?

I think (but could be wrong) that it is $7/day. If you have a Disney Visa, you get 2 free stroller rentals each day.

Thanks Tinkerbelt,

Are they the foldible kind or the solid plastic jobbies...
Been having conflicting reports...maybe they changed recently? Just curious


Also, according to DL website its' $10 a day for rentals now.. So it's seems like if you can do it ....it's best to get that Visa card for the 2 free rentals a day. Especially if you got a couple kids or are staying a while ...could save a ton of cash

They aren't foldable.

Also, they aren't the solid plastic kind like they have at WDW.

The strollers at DL are made of canvas. They have a black plastic foot rest for the child's feet, and they have a large sun shade that you can fold up and over your child. Our kids find them quite comfortable.

They are very sturdy, and very smooth and easy to push.

You can park hop with them. (If you rent a stroller at DL, then later go over to CA, you can take the stroller with you.) However, you cannot take the stroller to DTD. If you do want to go to DTD (or back to your hotel room for a nap, or whatever), keep your receipt for the stroller rental, and then later that same day when you return to the parks, just show the stroller rental CMs your receipt, and you'll be assigned another stroller free of charge.

From the recent descriptions, it sounds like they haven't changed from our visits. So I'll post pictures, and if they are NOT the ones DL currently has, tell me, and I'll delete them.

This is September '05

This is a closeup, October '06

You can fold them. It is a major PITA though, but the CMs will show you how to do it - really the only time you would need to do it is if you want to take it on the train. The CM's at the train station will help you fold it up before you board.

tinkerbelt, are my pictures accurate, are they still the ones they had last October?

 

[tinkerbelt]

Yep, same ones!

This link has one person's interesting opinion on the DL's strollers:

I had NO idea they could be folded. And we've used these strollers many, many, many times for our two boys.

We never had any CMs ever show us how to fold them, or even offer to do so.

Oh well. We really didn't need to fold them for any reason. When we rode the train, we'd just park the strollers, ride the train around one full loop, then get off and go back to our strollers.

Of course, had we known they could be folded, we may have taken the train to the Main Street station (with our strollers) when park hopping over to CA, instead of walking the entire way through DL. This may have saved our feet a little.
