I absolutely ADORE this ride. I have been going to Walt Disney World almost every year of my life since I was 5 years old, and my family never forgets to stop by this Tomorrowland classic. The ride almost never has a wait so it is an easy access ride, and it is a perfect way to take a break in the cool AC. As far as the ride goes, the soundtrack, animatronics, and overall feel of the show is so much fun. The show is charismatic, enticing, funny, and overall a great time. However, I do feel that the ride may be in need of a refurbishment. The future scene has caught up to recent times as of now, and I feel that re-envisioning the future scene to predict what life might be like now might entice future viewers.

Pros:

Air conditioning fun song cute atmosphere low wait time

Cons:

a little bit outdated

I love Carousel of Progress. It\\'s one of my favorite attractions. Yes, the last scene is a bit outdated. The animatronics do glitch sometimes. But, you learn a bit about the technology from previous centuries. Its not a thrill ride, but its still a great ride.

Pros:

Its 20 minutes in Air Conditioning.

Cons:

It does need some refurb.

Carousel of Progress is a guilty pleasure of mine. I know it's dated as can be, but I love the charm of it all. Plus, SC on a hot summer's day? Every time.

Pros:

Charming and quaint, with some historical value under multiple contexts.

Cons:

If mothballs were an attraction!

I'm going to get roasted but I hate this attraction. The poor animatronics are falling apart, the seats are uncomfortable, and it's the only Disney attraction where I've ever found a dirty diaper sitting on the floor. While I'll admit, I do love singing "It's a Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow" at the top of my lungs, I'd rather spend the thirty minutes I'd be stuck in here elsewhere in Magic, even if it's just in line for Starbucks. Of course, it's a classic, but it's a classic I could do without.

Pros:

"It's a Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow"

Cons:

Poorly cared for animatronics, dirty and uncomfortable theater, takes too much time for little payback

Cons:

It’s very outdated and can be hard for young kids to understand It is a relatively long show Not great for all thrill seekers

Absolute nostalgic favorite...great for a break, or simple enjoyment on any MK day

Pros:

narrator, sets, song, story

Cons:

the last vignette - absolutely horrible compared to first three...wish they'd kept the original...Also hate to hear rumors of changing narrator (again)
