Help me decide. I'm driving myself crazy here.

Thanks!

I LOVE, and I mean LOVE my Volo! I have a Peg Perego Pliko that has sat in the garage since I bought my Volo. I researched a lot, and I decided on the Volo b/c it is ultra-light, has a cool, mesh seat that keeps dd3 cool and can actually be hosed off with water as needed. It is perfect for WDW. We took it in April and are taking it again on the 18th for our next trip to WDW. If anything happened to it, I would buy it again. I got it for $70, including shipping, new on eBay. A steal!

I agree, I vote for the volo. I bought one for our DD who will be 7 when we go. She is 43 pounds now, and it pushes wonderfully. The weight limit is up to 55 pounds. I realize that you might want one that reclines and this one does not. I dont need the recline for our DD, but Maclaren is a GREAT brand stroller. I much prefer having my own stroller with me than renting one. I cant stand to pay for a rental. I paid the same amount for this stroller ($64) as renting one and I have something to show for it. I will use it again at Disney next year.

Love, love. love my Volo! However, we rent while in the parks and use our stroller in the airport, around the resort, Downtown Disney, etc.

I thought I read somewhere (on this board) that the seat back was higher for the Quest, plus it reclines. So I bought one - $199 at Babies R Us. I know I could have gotten it cheaper online (AlbeeBaby and babydealz.com), but I was in a stroller frenzy as I had my son there test riding them. He's 40 lb., 43 in. and this was Ok for him. I don't see how the double Rally could fit a 55 lb. kid as advertised, though...my son was all scrunched up in that one. That's why I decided on the Quest...we may actually bring it folded up in the seat basket under our big Graco travel system stroller (which our 8 mo. old will be in)- we'll look like jerks I bet, but at least we won't have to carry the bigger guy!

Good luck in your search...and test them out first!
