Reasons Why I Love the UPPAbaby Vista Stroller Now That I Have Two Kids!

October 22, 2019

In this post I’m sharing the reasons why I love the UPPAbaby Vista stroller now that I have two kids!

I’m going on two years of being a loyal fan and UPPAbaby VISTA lover! When I first got my UPPAbaby stroller I wanted something for Kennedy that would be comfortable, have a large storage basket, be stylish and durable. The functionality of the UPPAbaby stroller is really what sold me. I knew I needed a stroller that would last me more than just a year or two before I had another child added to our family. This stroller has been even more than I had hoped for as I have been able to use it to transition to strolling both kids in it. The different configurations and ease of use have been a total game changer with both kids. It has the capacity to be used as a double stroller with the size of a single stroller. I also wrote about why I love the UPPAbaby Vista when Kennedy was an infant in this post here!

The ability to add Dane in his MESA infant car seat to the top or bottom and Kennedy in her toddler seat in a position she likes makes taking both kiddos on walks out and about a breeze! It’s really nice to have the basket underneath still have so much space even with both seats. I have been able to fit both seats, my diaper bag, a scooter, blanket and soccer ball all in the stroller at once!

There are lots of accessories that UPPAbaby offers that I use and love. The accessories needed to transform it into a double stroller is the UPPAbaby VISTA Lower Adapter which function is to provide more space between each seat. In addition, the UPPAbaby VISTA Upper Seat Adapter provides the ability for multiple second seat configurations and will fold with the adapters in place. The other accessory I use to adapt the stroller for both kiddos is the UPPAbaby VISTA RumbleSeat which supports a child from 3 months to 35 lb. or 36″ tall. Some features I love about the RumbleSeat is its reversible design that can be positioned forward or rear-facing, the multi-position recline and the three position height adjustment. The two other must have accessories are the UPPAbaby Snack Tray which I use ALL the time with Kennedy. Home girl loves her snacks at hand at all times and this snack tray keeps her happy, especially while are out on long walks or at places like Disneyland! Lastly, I can’t live without the UPPAbaby Carry-All Parent Organzier for keeping my phone, water bottle, snacks and Dane’s binkies on hand! I love having a place to stash any necessities that I need in a safe space!

This time around with Dane I’ve been using the UPPAbaby MESA Car Seat which he thankfully has loved! Kennedy was never a fan of her car seat (from a different brand) and would cry anytime we would drive or she was in it. So this time around I got the UPPAbaby MESA and Dane has LOVED it! He will fall asleep so easily in it and is one of the top safety rated infant car seats on the market. A trick my sister taught me is using a portable sound machine which we love to get the best on the go nap in the stroller or car! From the beginning Dane has been a fan of the UPPAbaby VISTA Bassinet. I was surprised how easily he would fall asleep in it- I would lay him down in it for walks and he would get a good snooze in. The UPPAbaby VISTA Bassinet is super luxurious, cozy and soft on the inside. The mattress is safety rated for overnight sleep and the bottom base and mattress is ventilated for added breathability and safety so I feel good about Dane taking long naps on it from the stroller and at home.

There are so many reasons we chose the UPPAbaby VISTA Stroller two years ago with Kennedy and I’m so glad we did! It has been the best, most durable stroller and has grown so seamlessly with our family! We love so many key features about it but what we love most is the various colors, accessories and adaptability it provides. The UPPAbaby VISTA is an all-in-one travel system that makes taking the stroller on trips or walks with the kids so easy.
