Stroller Choice

[mamattorney]

We will be renting a stroller from Kingdom Strollers for a couple of park days in June. Just measured my child and he's a hair under 44", so instead of the City Mini we rented last year, I'm going to move "up" to one of the others. Which of these four would you rent? I don't know anything about any of them (the last time I bought a stroller was in 2003 and while that stroller is still going strong, we won't need it for the other 8 days of our vacation, so I'm opting to rent for park days only)

I guess if I had a preference on features, it would for large storage and for a compact fold. My child is light (@40lbs) so weight of stroller + kid is not a big deal. Thanks.

Mini GT
Bob Revolution
Citi Elite Single
Summit X3 Single

We use a double. In 2012 we got the regular Citi Mini, and last year we upgraded to the Citi Mini GT. It was nice. We also did it because DD was almost 7...I don't remember her exact height then but it was in the neighborhood of 45" and she was probably about 45 lbs. The headroom was nice for her, and it was very easy to push.

I'm moving up next trip from the City Mini and will go with the GT. Will you have a vehicle and be driving back and forth from the parks or are you using Disney Transportation? If using Disney transportation I would definitely go with the GT because it will fold down smaller on the bus and be easier to handle. The other three have much larger wheels and are heavier.

Good point on the vehicle situation. We will have a car for Magic Kingdom, but the folded size/wheel size is still important because we will be moving this stroller with us as we change hotels (staying on site at Universal for two days previous) and we will have to fit our family, all our luggage and this stroller in a rental car to do it.

I think we'll go with the GT. We were happy with the City Mini last year and if he weren't getting a little tall for it, we would have gotten it again. The GT seems most similar to it.
