***FREEE***Double Stroller Swap CLOSED

[princesses&pirates]

My dates for this stroller are still available, early summer, and this looked good but not sure about all the trouble some folks have had. I have my name on a list for another one, but this one has ALL my dates available. (the other reservation was missing the 1st 2 days.) Anybody wanna lay out a few pros and cons. Maybe someone who has used it? Just want to get the best deal with the least hassle--like all of us.

Thanks to all who posted.

Talked it over with Dh and decided it would be worth it anyway. We have a backup plan.
So could you please put me down for May 30-June 4?
Thanks.

Hi everyone,

Just wanted to let everyone know my experience with the stroller. I used it last week. My husband brought duct tape to fix the bar in the middle and it held up great. We did not experience the wheel falling off. It does get stuck sometimes when you try to go forward, but I would just turn the wheel with my hand or foot and it was fine. My husband said someone could fix the wheel easily with the right tools...I would tell you what they are, but I forgot. Anyway, we had a great experience. Hope others have the same.
OH, and make sure you look at the picture of it before you go. The people at POP couldn't find it (and I got nervous thinking I would be SOL without a stroller) and finally had me come back and look for it. I saw it buried under a bunch of flattened cardboard boxes....probably not the most ideal location. UGH!!!

Hello! this is so amazing - thank you to the organizer...we were just wondering if we should cart a double stroller down there.

we would really appreciate the use on:
MAY 10 - 18th

I put you down...you need to contact missteach to see where the stroller was left and under what name.

Hi everyone,

Just wanted to let everyone know that after my2boys2disney has used the stroller, it will be retired. I've had alot of people back out based on the wheel issue(understandably) and therefore creating alot of big gaps. Plus it does sound like it is starting to not hold up so good.

I'm not taking anymore names and won't be checking the thread too often so PLEASE check the first post as to who your supposed to swap infomation with. Also check the thread discussions to see if anyone else before or after you has backed out. I will update post one if I see changes when I check the thread. Those that may change their mind about using the stroller, please PM the swapper before and after you to let them know.

Thanks everyone!!!!

delete...sorry!! I freaked out a little! After I got to work I felt so guilty for saying anything. Sorry for being such a baby.

OH NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is horrible! I'm so sad that I paid money for this swap in the beginning & now it's done?!!?! My DH was VERY skeptical of this & I talked him into this. What a disappointment! I guess OUR stroller is the reason DISboard stopped ALL swaps. Kalliyan, I know it's not in any way your fault, but this is a true shame.

Is there no way to do something for those of us who paid $$ & still need the stroller? My DH could definitely check in to fixing the wheel. If we have to rent a WDW stroller, I guess we'll have to give up on plans for MNSSHP.

PM'd you...this is not your swap....your paid swap is still FINE!!!!!

Could missteach please post about her experience with the stroller? I would like to bring some supplies if I need to so I can clean it up or whatever in one month. Just kinda want to know what to expect.

thanks!!--only one month left

Folks - I have not heard from Missteach, I am due to use the stroller after her on May 10th-May17th. Does ANYONE have her email? I have pm'ed her and posted to some of her threads.
The only thing I know is that she stayed at POR. Should I try calling luggage services there? Any ideas on what next?

Hi kalliyan I am new to all of this we are flying in and have a 3 & 5 yr olds. How much and how do we pay. Is it big enough for my 5 year old she weighs 41 pounds if she decides to use it. We are very clean and will keep it mint.

We will be there Sept 26 check out Oct 4th so will be done with it on the 3rd. POP century

If not available do you know of any other rentals in the area or swaps.

Thanks for your time.

Sorry I haven't replied! Haven't had my computer in a while! I sent a PM with info for where the stroller was left. As for my experience with the stroller, it was fine. A litte dingy, but fine after a good wipedown! I did have a few times where the wheel wouldn't budge, but I would just get my husband to turn the wheel by hand and off we would go again! It wasn't anything major, just a minor complication at times. It still beat paying the $31/day fee for renting! I hope this helps! We had a WONDERFUL trip and are already planning our 2010 Disney Vacation! Hope you have an amazing trip... I am jealous I am not returning in May!

Hello - I rec'd a pm from Missteach that the stroller was left at All Star Movies for Betty Klug. Does ANYONE have info for her? ie, under what name it was left???

Could someone just leave it at luggage services???

Any help would be great!
