The Stroller is a UPPAbaby Vista V2

The UPPAbaby vista is a full-size stroller with a lot of versatility. It can be tailored to meet the requirements of your family. It starts as a single travel stroller stroller, but can easily be expanded to accommodate a child in the car seat or bassinet and two children with a Rumbleseat or Piggyback riding board (car seats and adapters are sold separately).

The top-ranked stroller features an enormous, easy-access basket, which is indisputably the biggest of any stroller available on the market. It's also very movable and durable, making it much easier to push than many strollers I've tried.

The innovative design of the mechanism allows the frame to stand while folded, which is a major advantage over the majority of strollers. This feature minimizes the footprint of the stroller and makes it easier to fit in the narrowest of spaces or to store it in your home or hotel.

In 2020, UPPAbaby added new features to this highly-rated stroller, including a five-point safety harness that's now a non need to rethread and a new sun canopy with more ventilation and UV protection. The canopy is now wider and longer, with a zip-out fabric extender as well as two vent panels. The suspension on the front wheels has been upgraded to a soft spring and there is now a visual indicator that lets you know when the wheels are locked or unlocked.

Contrary to other popular full-size strollers that work only with certain brand of infant carseats, the Vista is compatible with all UPPAbaby car seats, and has more than a dozen configuration options. Moms love that they can begin with Baby in a Bassinet, the UPPAbaby Mesa Infant Car Seat or a Toddler Seat, and then add a Rumbleseat Piggyback to make it even bigger.

UPPAbaby offers a variety of stroller accessories to match your Vista stroller, such as the infant car seat travel bag, bassinet sun cover and bug screen. The fabrics on this top-rated stroller can be washed which is ideal for children as they can become dirty and messy quickly!
