Product Review: UPPAbaby Vista V2 Stroller

 

The UPPAbaby VISTA V2 is one of the most sought-after strollers on the market.  It’s sleek design and eye-catching colors make it all the more appealing to parents. Most importantly, this stroller is a go-to for growing families, as it transforms from single stroller to double stroller very easily. 

So, what are the new features of this stroller and what makes the UPPAbaby VISTA V2 stand out from the crowd?

What’s in the box?

Upon purchasing the UPPAbaby VISTA V2, you will receive the following: 

  1. Stroller frame 
  2. Toddler seat – suitable for use from 3 months and up to 50 lbs. 
  3. Rain shield and bug shield for toddler seat
  4. A beautiful bassinet! The bassinet is suitable for use from birth up to 20 lbs, or until your baby is able to push on their hands and knees – whichever comes first. It has been tested and approved for overnight sleeping, and many parents find this an appealing option in the first three months after the baby’s arrival and before transitioning into a crib. 
  5. Bassinet storage bag and bug shield.

Seat Options 

One of the main reasons the UPPAbaby VISTA V2 is so popular is that it transforms from a single stroller to a double stroller with the purchase of a second seat later on. 

There are various seating options available with this stroller: they really are endless! 

 

The seat can be used in either forward-facing or parent-facing mode, so you can have your baby face you when they’re younger and face forward to explore the world as they grow. You can even add an additional seat, transforming your stroller from a single to a double. If you have two babies, you can mix in an infant seat with a bassinet, or add a rumble seat for two toddlers. Anything is possible with this stroller as long as you have the right adapters for it! (sold separately). 

Seat & Harness 

The VISTA seat is very spacious and provides ample room for your child. It also includes a deep footrest that adds plenty of leg space. Unlike the previous model of the VISTA, the V2 features an updated harness with easily adjustable straps, so you don’t have to rethread every time your child grows. 

Canopy 

The Vista V2 features an extended canopy that is height adjustable and is UPF 50+, contributing to the safety and comfort of your baby. The canopy can even be scrolled all the way down to the safety bar to completely block out all sun rays and allow your baby to sleep peacefully. The canopy comes with two peek-a-boo ventilation sections that maximize air flow. The first canopy has a fold-over flap which you can use to check on your baby and provide them with light. The second canopy can be found below the zipper. 

 

Handlebar 

The handlebar is telescopic and accommodates different heights, this is especially useful if partners differ in heights and will both be using the stroller often. The handle bar comes in full leather and adds a luxurious touch to the stroller! The pinholes on the handlebar allow for better grip and breathability.

Wheels & Suspension 

This new model of the Vista includes softer tiers. The front wheels of the stroller can lock into place for smoother rides, and there is a green indicator that lets you know when the wheels are locked. 

The all-wheel suspension smoothest out those bumpy rides on uneven roads. This allows your baby to sleep soundly even on rough landscapes. 

Foldability

The UPPAbaby Vista V2 is among the easiest strollers to fold: the stroller folds with one intuitive step, and even stands alone when folded! It is definitely one of our favorite features. 

Storage Basket 

The VISTA V2 includes an extra-large basket that is very convenient for storing all your things: from diaper bags to shopping bags, blankets and more. It is deep and roomy and also has pockets on the back to quickly store small items like phones or bottles. 

Compatibility with the MESA Infant Car Seat

You can attach your UPPAbaby MESA Infant Car Seat directly to your VISTA stroller without the need for any adapters. The car seat attaches seamlessly and can be removed easily by pressing the button on the top of the handle. 

The UPPAbaby VISTA is also compatible with car seats from brands like Nuna, Cybex, Maxi-Cosi, Clek, Peg Perego and Chicco when using the right adapter.

Add Ons

 There are plenty of UPPAbaby accessories that you can purchase to make the most out of your stroller. This includes the cup holderchild tray, as well as the Piggyback Ride Along Board which even allows you to accommodate a third child on the stroller! 

Colors

The VISTA V2 is available in 10 different eye catching colors. The Alice, Emmett and Bryce are some parent favorites. The colors are truly gorgeous!

  

Earlier this year, UPPAbaby introduced two new colors to the VISTA family: Declan and Greyson.

Final Thoughts on the UPPAbaby Vista V2

The UPPAbaby VISTA V2 is a premium stroller, but well worth its price if you are a growing family and plan on using the stroller everyday. It is a great option for multiple kids as the different seating and facing configurations give parents lots of versatility. This stroller weighs at 27lbs, so if you are looking for a lightweight and compact stroller, the VISTA isn’t for you.
