Strollers and naps.............

[paigevz]

We are going for Christmas and we're so excited, but had questions on the strollers. Better to rent or buy? We had a great one that we used before and it broke, so bought new and don't like it after all, so we'll have to buy another or rent. Our ds is 2 and doesn't like them much, but does nap and our older ds used to nap in the stroller at disney. Do the rentals recline for napping and are they comfy? Is there a place for "stuff"? Is there a problem with people taking other people's rentals? Also, at that time of year when it's crowded will they run out of rentals? How long does it take to rent, too? We always got there at opening and bypassed all those lines, so will it really slow us down to have to rent? It might be nice not to be constantly folding up a stroller for transpo though. Any opinions or experiences?

We always bring out own, so I can't help you with the time it takes to rent, etc., but I can tell you that the ones I've taken notice of (especially the MK stroller) do not recline for napping. They are a hard plastic, and I don't believe there is any ample space for storage.

Although it can be a hassle folding and unfolding for transportation, we like having it for getting to/from the transportation, around the resort, Downtown Disney, etc.

I am bringing our grandaughter's (11 months) with us on our December trip. We will have it for use in the airport and it will be familiar to her in the parks. We know she does well in it for naps etc.

most disney strollers are not nap friendly... there are various styles in diff't parks (mk has the hard plastic more cartlike than a "stroller," ak has a jogging type - presumably for the 'rougher' terrain there... cannot remember the other parks) but none of them are something worthy of a decent nap!
