| Uppa Baby Vista Stroller
by mrsneally from Ft. Pierce, FL | Mom Rating:

| Best: Tires and Accessories, Rides very nice |
| Worst: No cupholder, Harness straps very difficult to raise/lower |
| Full Review: I just got this stroller and I absolutely love it. You can't beat the price for what comes with the stroller. The stroller is amazingly rugged and stylish. The basket is huge, but I haven't gotten a chance to tote anything with me yet. Very easy to fold once I figured out how. The bad thing is it feels a little tall for me, but I'm 5'1". Also, the worst part of it was adjusting the harness straps to fit in the lower slots was extremely difficult. But, I wouldn't be doing that very often. This stroller is amazing and I love having a unique stroller that not many others have, but hopefully for UppaBaby that won't be for long. Hopefully Uppababy will come out with accessories such as a cupholder or different carrier adapters. |

| Easy to push stroller

| Best: Looks great and has nice features |
| Worst: it's expensive |
| Full Review: I have the black Uppa Baby and I really like it. It can push easy. It has a bassinet. The wheels are nice. The handle can go up and down. And the seat reverses so that I can see my baby or they can see forward. It's really cool. |

| Best: Adjustable handle & the all-terrain wheels! |
| Worst: I love it all! |
| Full Review: OMG! I love this stroller! Okay, it did take some convincing of my husband that I spend this much on a stroller but honestly once we got it, he loves it. We have the blue one and it's gorgeous. It comes with a great bassinet that has a sturdy carry handle on top. The bassinet is easy to clip on and off the frame as well as the toddler seat. The toddler seat has a recline in which the entire seat reclines not just the back. The wheels are awesome! The wheels are large and makes it an all-terrain stroller. I handles anything. I take it on the mulch at the playground and it glides. I roll over rocks and it glides. it's awesome. Also, it's very easy to push and maneuvers wonderfully. i can't say enough good things about it. It's great. Everyone should have one. |

| Best: Ease of use |
| Worst: Cost |
| Full Review: I had the Bugaboo with my first child, but it was hard to use and if the rear tires went flat, it was a pain to fix. I just found the Uppababy and I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE (!!!!) it. It's not as $$ as the Bugaboo and you actually get more for the money. It's super easy to push, has a huge carry basket, and now has a cup holder attachment. It's not heavy and really easy to take apart. I do a ton of walking since I live in the city and needed an all-terrain stroller that could also go through grocery store aisles and around department store clothing racks. This stroller does it all. The piggyback (for older kids to stand on) doesn't get in the way because it doesn't stick out the way the ride-along for the Bugaboo does...the best part is that I can control it with one hand and carry my coffee in the other. |

| Best: Tires, basket and maneuverability |
| Worst: I can't think of anything |
| Full Review: I am the envy of all my friends with my new Uppa Baby Stroller. The stroller is great and I'm the only one I know that has it. Yeah, some of my friends have Bugaboos but it seems like everyone has one of those now. The Uppa Baby is a great alternative to the Bug. It's cheaper and yet just as good if not better. I love the wheels because they don't go flat! I don't have to carry around a tire pump with me :) Who has time to change a stroller tire when your a mom anyway? Also, the color is really nice. It maneuvers really easy. I love that the seat switches around so that my baby can face me. The basket is really big. I'm talking can-put-a-diaper-bag-in-it-big. I love the sunshade/bugnet that comes with it because it completely shields my baby. It's easy to fold. And yeah, it's not the lightest thing on the market but it's worth it! |

| Uppa Baby gets two thumbs up
by Chelsea from Rocky River, OH | Mom Rating:

| Best: basket; handle; tires |
| Worst: Like many frame strollers - it's bulky to travel with |
| Full Review: Uppa Baby is a pretty neat stroller. I love the big basket, adjustable handle, and the reversible seat. The bassinet is really nice and has a nice carry handle on the hood. The tires are wide and can handle any kind of situation like gravel, grass, sand etc. The price is high and I had to convince my husband that it was worth it, but I think he secretly loves the stroller as much as I do. Since it is a frame stroller, it's a bit bulky in my trunk but I have an SUV so it's no problem. |

| Great Stroller System
by Rosie from Charlotte, NC | Mom Rating:
|
| Best: BASKET! PUSHES EASY! |
| Worst: No cupholder :( |
| Full Review: This is a great stroller system. I love that it comes with the bassinet and the toddler seat. I just had a baby so we utilize the bassinet on a daily basis. I love that I can detach it from the stroller and bring it in the house. The stroller itself is gorgeous. The colors are stunning and the fabric is nice. My favorite thing about the stroller besides it being really easy to push is the huge basket underneath. I saw many luxury strollers that had small baskets and I just didn't get it. I need a lot of storage space when I'm out and I'm glad Uppa Baby gives me that space. The 5 point harness is great but i do wish it tightened a bit more. The seat switches so you can see baby or they can see out. The handle is adjustable up and down. And it comes with a great bugnet and raincover. The only thing I'm missing is a cup holder. I wish it had one of those. |

| Best: easy to change from toddler seat to infant
very sturdy |
| Worst: |
| Full Review: I bought this stroller for our baby that was born a week ago. However, I have used it now several times with our 3 1/2 year old also . I just could not wait to get it out! We love it! My 3 year old is big for her age and is still very comfortable in it and even fell asleep on a walk with the seat fully reclined. This week we have used the infant cot and the baby loves it also. The orange fabric is so cute and easy to clean. The new smaller wheels are a huge plus for walking in the mall, stores... |

| Best: Price for features |
| Worst: Wide wheel base |
| Full Review: This has been a great stroller for my 3 year old and new 5 week old baby. It is so easy to switch between the carycot and the seat or even to put my Graco carseat on the base. The orange color is so cute! The only drawback is the wide wheel base. The newer 2008 model has narrower wheels but it is still a little wider then the average stroller. However, this has yet to be a problem for us even in the mall. |

| Uppa Baby is almost perfect
by Laceysmom from Portland, OR | Mom Rating:

| Best: Color; pushes easy; basket |
| Worst: Footrest has a bar that may be in the way for older toddlers |
| Full Review: I really like the Uppa Baby. The color is great. The padded 5 point harness is a nice touch. It pushes easily. The wheels can tackle any terrain. The toddler seat has 3 recline positions -- the whole seat reclines not just the back. The only thing that we don't love is that there is a bar on the bottom of the footrest and if my toddler wants to straighten her legs, her legs sit on that bar. Otherwise, she can prop her feet on the bar and have her legs bent but I think not having the bar would be better. Other than that, the basket is big and the handle and seat are adjustable. Overall, I really like it. |

| Great stroller for tall parents and small apartments
by KGB15 from Des Moines, IA | Mom Rating:
|
| Best: maneuverability, large shopping basket, folds easily, handle height great for tall parents |
| Worst: brake is stiff, no rain cover for bassinet (only bug cover) |
| Full Review: We just had our first baby, and we put a lot of research into which stroller to buy. We had no idea what our "lifestyle" required. But Dad is 6'5 and Mom 5'6, so handle height and adjustability were really important. Cost was also important (we were willing to spend a little more, but it had to be good value for money), and since we have a very small apartment we wanted it to be easy to store. It also needed be light enough to easily get on and off public transport, because we live in London.
I'm so glad we spent a little bit more and got this stroller. We love it!! Handle height is great for Dad, but also adjusts to fit me fine. We use the bassinet as her regular bed (instead of a Moses basket, which is common here in the UK) it fits on a standard Moses basket stand. The maneuverability is one of the best things about it -- I can get in and out of the smallest shops without running into everything. And the basket is big enough for us to put all the grocery shopping in (saves the environment from those plastic bags!!)
The frame folds up easily and can be kept in the hall without disturbing our neighbors because it is in the way. I can then carry baby into the apartment in the bassinet. When it is time to go out again, I really appreciate the red/green indicators that let me know the bassinet is properly clicked back into the base.
The one thing that bugs me a bit is the brake which is very still, and makes a loud click when engaged. I always think I am breaking it. But that is a very small annoyance compared to all the features and advantages.
I would highly recommend this stroller to anyone who is short on space, who is interested in more features than the "lightweight" strollers offer. Tall parents especially should take a look at this stroller -- there are few strollers out on the market that have such good adjustable handles (believe me we looked!!) |

| Worst: |
| Full Review: I simply adore this stroller. I bought it in New York a couple months ago on a trip and I'm really excited about it. It's new so I have never seen another one when I am out and about. I love that about it! Also, the basket is really big. I mean, holds a big diaper bag big! The wheels are great for going over different terrain. The handle adjusts up and down. The color is great! I bought it rather than a bugaboo because there is no chance of a flat tire. I just don't have time for that. Also, the sun shade is great for not only blocking the sun but blocking bugs as well. |

| Better than the Expensive Strollers, by far
by allisonmoody from Norfolk, VA | Mom Rating:
|
| Best: Light, turns on a dime, rugged, able to go on gravel, beach, cobblestone |
| Worst: No tray for baby |
| Full Review: It's like having four strollers in one. A pram/carriage style, a standard style, an umbrella (it is rather lightweight) and if you get the car seat adapter it becomes the base.
Strong aluminum, easy to put together and fold & unfold (with a bit of practice though...a couple times ought to do it)
Would be five stars but is lacking in conveniences like a childs tray. I bought a neoprene water bottle holder that just snaps on so I am covered there. |
