Should we take a stroller to Disney?

So overall my thoughts on strollers at Disney World are this: If you think you might need one, take it! If you don't have the room to take one then rent at the park or through an outside company. The Park strollers are not bad, they are just a little different so make sure you take a look at them before you go.
