Baby Trend Expedition Jogging stroller

[all4fun]

Looking for people w/experience using this stroller w/bigger kids? We bought it yesterday from Target for $75 - great deal. DS (4yrs, 42.5") seems really comfortable in it even though his feet hang off the foot rest (it offers practically no legroom). Anyone here use a stroller like this in the parks with older/taller kids? Did the lack of leg room bother them after a while? DH loves it because he doesn't kick the wheels like w/our LS2000 (similar to the maclarens) and other than the footrest issue, I think it's pretty nice for the price. I'm just worried that we'll regret purchasing it if ds starts complaining about not having anywhere to put his feet (at least w/out scrunching his legs up, lol). I haven't taken the stroller out of the box yet, so I can still return it. Any one have experience using a similar stroller who can offer some insight or opinions?

I have that stroller. I use it for my DS when we go to HersheyPark. I've never taken it to Disney. Although my son is much younger and smaller than your DS, I wanted to let you know that I love ours. DS, 36 inches and 30 lbs, is so comfy inside. I also have the rain cover. It does a great job of keeping him dry. We've gone running in the rain many times.

Hope someone else can help you with your specific questions.

Thanks for the response. I'm glad you like the stroller and your ds is comfy in it. Where did you get the rain cover, if I may ask?

We bought the stroller at Babies R Us. The cover was there, too. I think it was $20, if I remember correctly.

Thanks! I'll check it out if I decide to keep it.
