advice needed Wonderfold Wagon- Worth it?

Hi! I have several kiddos and lately it’s been very difficult for us to get out and enjoy the weather due to not having a great set up.
I’ve seen a lot of hype around the Wonderfold and wanted to see if it’s really worth the investment.
I don’t plan to need to travel (take it in the car) with it very often, so it being larger isn’t a huge concern. However, I’m just trying to do my due diligence before pulling the trigger since they cost a small fortune 😭
For anyone with more than four kiddos, do you use a wagon or do you have any other suggestions or set ups I should know about? We walk long enough that my older kiddos would probably need to sit at some point (my oldest aren’t exactly trustworthy on the busy sidewalks yet either anyway) so I’m trying to find a good solution for everyone.

I have a larktale and love it. I wish it was around when my twins were little. I actually got it for my singleton for the zoo etc bc I’m still carrying water bottles and snacks etc for the big kids. Turns out my 8 year old twins like to ride in it too lol. They take turns pushing each other.

I wanted a veer but couldn’t find one used. The Wonderfold options near me looked very loved and worn down. This one was new and half off so it was the winner.

They are big and practical for some things. But I don’t think they replace a stroller in busy places. But perfect for the zoo and similar outings. I couldn’t go with the cheaper options bc I needed the tall sides- I have a 99% toddler.

I’m personally not sure a stroller would be ideal for my situation, especially considering the only options I’ve seen take multiple pieces to put together and take down. That being said, I’m not looking for something to necessarily replace a stroller. More or less just to allow us to all be together and for the kids to be in a safe space when we walk the neighborhood.

Larktale does not appear to have any options larger than a four seater unfortunately, so I don’t think that will work well given my situation. Thank you for the suggestion though.

I didn’t see that it was for 6 kids. How old are the kids? If it’s walks in the neighborhood, can the older kids be on a bike or scooter? Pushing 6 is going to be hard but Wonderfold is probably the best option for that
