I received the UPPABaby Vista V3 as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel. We have a 1.5 year old and so a functional stroller is paramount. First, this stroller just looks and feels luxury. I loved the neutral coloring as well as the leather details along the handles. The stroller is so incredibly easy to push around - it easily moves in any direction with very little effort and can definitely be pushed with a single hand if necessary. The wheel lock is easy to access and push and I like the detail that it changes coloring based on if the brakes are on or not so there's no guessing. There is ample storage in the bottom compartment which makes it great for a quick grocery run or shopping trip as well as holding all of the things needed for a baby/toddler!

There is ample storage in the bottom compartment which makes it great for a quick grocery run or shopping trip as well as holding all of the things needed for a baby/toddler! It was incredibly easy to assemble and very easy to switch from bassinet to standard stroller mode. Although we have outgrown the need for a bassinet at this point, we have used one previously and can speak to how nice it is to have for newborns. I love that this stroller can grow with your kid and even add a second seat in the future! This stroller seems to perform fairly well on even slightly rough terrain as it is so smooth. While I wouldn't take it jogging on trials, it is easy to navigate gravel on a short walk. The magnetic harness was one of my most favorite features and made snapping my wiggly toddler a breeze!My only concerns with this stroller are the folding and carrying method and the lack of storage for parents. While I is incredibly easy to fold down, I would love if a single hand fold could be incorporated. As a toddler mom, we can never have too many hands and it seems I always have something in at least one hand so making it to where you can fold with just one hand I think would be an incredible improvement in function. I also would love to see a handle incorporated somehow. It can be a bit cumbersome to carry/move but adding a single handle point I think would really add even more value. Lastly, I think the addition of a small drink holder/area to hold keys, etc. would be a great addition. While there are ways to add this in after purchasing, having it come standard I think would make the appearance more streamlined.Overall, if you are looking for a functional, easy to maneuver, and highly aesthetic stroller, this should be one your list!

I just recently had my 6th kiddo about a month ago, so I have used my fair share of strollers. I have used them from just about every name brand you can think of- I've used single strollers, double strollers, travel systems, umbrella strollers, and even jogging strollers. I have tried a number of brands just because my mom groups were a buzz about them, only to be disappointed. The UPPAbaby Vista stroller is one of those strollers I've always heard a lot of hype about, but never tried. However, I recently picked up the UPPAbaby Aria infant car seat for my youngest, so when the Stellar Product Testing Panel reached out to me about testing the new UPPAbaby Vista v3, it seemed like the perfect timing.

I have tried a number of brands just because my mom groups were a buzz about them, only to be disappointed. The UPPAbaby Vista stroller is one of those strollers I've always heard a lot of hype about, but never tried. However, I recently picked up the UPPAbaby Aria infant car seat for my youngest, so when the Stellar Product Testing Panel reached out to me about testing the new UPPAbaby Vista v3, it seemed like the perfect timing. Let me just say, this is one of the first products that really lives up to the hype. I was absolutely floored by how impressive this stroller was. First, my infant car seat (the Aria) fit smoothly into the top of this stroller. It glided right in, no additional attachments needed. It provided a TON of basket space- literally, I took it when we went to some garage sales and I fit an entire laundry basket plus more in the bottom of the stroller, with no effort at all. The stroller itself was very smooth and didn't jostle too much.Next I tried it with the bassinet. The bassinet was really nice, it had a good sturdy material and I really appreciated that it had venting for proper air flow. My kiddos tend to get sweaty and warm relatively easily, especially in the high 90s temperatures we've been having lately, so proper air flow is super important. The bassinet was a pain to set up, but once I got it there, it was great. The bag it came with to store it in was also nice. The mattress seemed really comfy. My son was not a huge fan of being in the bassinet for very long, however, so I ended up using my infant seat more.Finally, I used the toddler seat with my 2 year old. The magnet harness was INCREDIBLE. I have typically avoided magnetic harnesses in the past because I worried my child would be able to get out of them too easily. This one is amazing and my 2 year old never figured it out. The pieces of the harness clip together so smoothly and then lock into place. I loved the insert as well- having the ability to flip it to match the weather is fantastic. I only used the "cool" side since it is quite warm here in the Midwest currently, but I think it is the perfect way to extend the use of this stroller year round. The brakes were also extremely useful and easy to navigate, as well as the self standing fold.I only have a few things I would change. One, the stroller gets dings/scratches pretty easily. I'm not sure if it's because of the material, but if there was some sort of finish that could go on it to protect from those things a bit more, I think that would be great. Two, I wish that the toddler seat would work on the bottom. I wasn't able to use this stroller as a double stroller because I needed a second set of adapters to use the infant seat on the bottom, or I needed to purchase a rumble seat. I wouldn't want my infant seat on the bottom, as I need my infant closest to me, so that left me with needing to buy a rumble seat. I would much rather just buy a set of lower adapters and use the toddler seat on the bottom with my infant seat up top, especially now that the toddler seat goes up to a higher weight. Finally, I wish their was an insect net for the toddler seat like there is for the bassinet. Mosquitos are crazy out here and love eating up my kiddos. That was such a helpful feature, I would love to have it for older kiddos too.Overall, this is the best stroller I have ever used and absolutely belongs on the pedestal so many fellow parents have placed it on. Do yourself a favor and pick it up!

Thanks to the generosity of the Stellar Product Testing Panel, I was gifted this stroller to try at no cost to me. I have five children and have never had the luxury of owning an UPPABaby before, let alone the latest and greatest model. It was nearly everything I imagined and I can understand why the price tag is so steep. They spare no expense on the beautiful design and materials -- from the elegant, streamlined frame to the luxe and beautiful fabric, it is truly a beaut. I don't have an infant who would lay still long enough to test out the bassinet that is included in the standard Vista purchase, however I fully and thoroughly tested every other feature of the stroller. I wasn't crazy about the color I was sent, but that's only because my kids are maniacs and I ... MoreThanks to the generosity of the Stellar Product Testing Panel, I was gifted this stroller to try at no cost to me.

It was nearly everything I imagined and I can understand why the price tag is so steep. They spare no expense on the beautiful design and materials -- from the elegant, streamlined frame to the luxe and beautiful fabric, it is truly a beaut. I don't have an infant who would lay still long enough to test out the bassinet that is included in the standard Vista purchase, however I fully and thoroughly tested every other feature of the stroller. I wasn't crazy about the color I was sent, but that's only because my kids are maniacs and I can't trust them with light colors. The color was kind of an oatmeal and in the short time I tested it, it already caught many stains. I didn't try to get them out, so unsure of the cleaning factor of the fabric. I will note how comfortable the seat was and how well it breathed (moreso than other higher end strollers we own). The extra extendable canopy is amazing and I love the zipper factor that allowed you to zip away the extra canopy fabric when not fully extended. One of my favorite parts of the stroller was the red and green lights on the wheels and brakes. You could easily and visibly see the status of each wheel (locked or not) and flip the main brake with a quick tap of the foot. It moved so gracefully over any terrain we tested it on and we tried it all - rocks, pavement, tile, grass, slick roads, sidewalk - you name it! The storage basket underneath was generously sized and we were able to fit even a couple full sized foldable chairs, along with a bunch of other gear, while at a soccer tournament for my older children. The magnetic buckle is a fantastic idea but I think there is room for improvement here. The bottom, middle of the leg part of the 5-point harness was quite slick and continually got stuck under my daughter's legs. I suggest that they add a magnetic tab underneath the seat cushion further down to keep that click portin place while the upper straps are secured. Another minor complaint I had is how challenging it is to open the stroller. I was able to fold it with relative ease by the end of my trial testing, however opening it never became smooth. I've been through a lot of strollers after 5 kids and was hopeful for a major improvement with opening it, and alas, this fell short. Overall though, the wins outweighed the losses and it was a truly beautiful piece of equipment to look at and operate. Loved the leather touches as well - so classy!
