Stroller to buy at Disney?

[Mom2Trey]

Does anyone know what kind of stroller they sell at the parks and resort shops? I know it is a red umbrella type stroller and it is about $40. Just wondering if anyone has purchased it and if so, what do you think of it?

It is a Kolcraft and it is great for $40. We bought one during one of our 2006 trips and are still using it. We actually use that one more than our other umbrella stroller but that might be because we think of Disney whenever we pull it out. My only complaint is that it is a three-point harness instead of a five-point. I prefer the five-point because then my ds can't lean over trying to touch his feet or the front wheels. We did have a problem with the canopy wanting to pop off of one side pretty easily until it got used for a few weeks.

Worked out well for us.

I actually bought mine online before our 1st trip with our twins in JAN 2006. At the time, there were only maybe 3 other people in the park with that stroller. This last trip, there were MANY of them. I would recommend that you make sure to bring something to mark your stroller so it's very easy to find in the crowd and doesn't get mistaken for someone else's stroller!

That said - we LOVE this umbrella stroller. It's been through 2 WDW trips (about to go through a 3rd one) and numerous other outings, with no problems. The handles are at a great height - my husband is 6' and I'm 5'4" - we're both comfortable pushing them. Also, the seats are wider than the other umbrella strollers I've seen, so the kiddos don't seem cramped sitting in them. I had the same issue previously mentioned about one side of the canopy wanting to pop off when you fold it...that can be a bit of a pain when you're in a hurry, but it's not really a big deal.
