Stroller rental and best for tall kids

[klk77]

I'm looking for suggestions regarding stroller rental. My twins have outgrown our stroller (maclaren twin techno) but I'm not ready to go stroller-less this summer. They're not super tall, maybe about 46 inches now. I'm hoping to avoid any judgement regarding stroller use at older ages, but was looking for recommendations.

1. Is any stroller rental company better than another? Or should be avoided? We're not doing Disney rentals.

2. What's best for tallest kids? There's a few suggested for kids up to 49 inches, but I'm looking for opinions if you've used them. Summit x3, city mini gt, or bob revolution, all double strollers.

Thanks!

City mini GT. My oldest is really tall for his age and he fit fine in it. The BOB is a little bit of a pain to fold.

I've used Kingdom Strollers twice and had a great experience.

I would go with the City Mini GT. I have the double for our kids and love it. Higher height/weight range than most, great canopy and great fold, not too heavy. I think the Summit X3 is too much stroller for Disney. I've heard BOB strollers aren't the best for tall kids plus the fold/weight of the stroller make it not the best option.

another vote for City Mini GT - my almost 5 year old (42/43 inches) fits just fine and the push and fold are great for Disney.

City Mini GT for my tall kids as well. We've been consistent Kingdom Strollers customers and haven't had any problems with their customer service.

Thanks for the input!

My long-torsoed 4.5 year old at 45.5" barely fit in a City Mini GT Double. She always wanted the canopy opened because her head hit it when it was folded back.

Summit X3, no question. My child was 47in when we rented it and fit fine. It has much more head room than the City IIRC.

Go to a store and put your kids in them and walk around. Then see if the one that worked best is available to rent.
