The VISTA comes with everything you need from a newborn to toddler. Many pushchairs don’t come with the bassinet included, so it’s nice not to have that added extra expense and know your baby will be lay flat in a safe, cosy, environment. The mattress is also safe for overnight sleeping. Great for travel. You can also purchase a stand to use it as an alternative to a Moses basket, nifty.
Upon first use, Dolly looked tiny in the carrycot. Hence the nickname. At this point, I was one-week post surgery. I wasn’t sprinting to toddler group and I didn’t have my camera glued to me like usual. So please forgive the poor pictures, but look how tiny she was! – 5lb of pink squish, with her knees stuck up by her nipples – And how roomy that bassinet is! She’s still using it now at almost 6 months old.
You also get the seat unit, two rain covers and mosquito nets. Everything you need to get going in one box. Brilliant!
Fab features –
A great feature is that the VISTA can be used a double. Simply by using the upper and lower adapters (sold separately), you can use the VISTA as a double pushchair from day 1 with the seat unit and bassinet.
To use it as a double with two seats you’d need to purchase a rumble seat separately. But we haven’t needed to.
The Piggyback board is a great additional accessory, perfect for toddlers. When not in use it flips up and stays in position. It definitely makes daily outings easier for us and the little one loves it.
The bassinet also comes off easily, you can do it one-handed. This has allowed us to keep Dolly close and shaded when out on picnics in the park! The hood also boasts a pull out SPF 50+ UV sun protector, and a mesh opening at the back with magnets to hold it up. Perfect for this warm weather.
From strolls in the park to trekking down dirt tracks at the farm. The UPPAbaby VISTA has taken every adventure in its stride. Not many pushchairs handle all terrains as fluidly as this one. It’s robust, yet stylish. And the basket is ginormous.
The real leather handle and bumper bar add a really nice finish to the latest edition of the UPPAbaby VISTA. And for those sporting an older model you can buy zip-on versions to give yourself an upgrade! My only niggle with the leather handlebar is that ours has started to twist it’s way around the handlebar creating a gap. The stitching is no longer central and I can’t seem to get it to move back. The zip on version would be easier to adjust in this case. First world problem.
Overall the UPPAababy VISTA meets all of our needs, it can cater to both of our children, newborn and 3 years. It folds down to a good size for our car (the bassinet can also be flattened with ease) and the piggyback board is a must have with a toddler in tow.
I would recommend this pram in a flash its been fab and so easy to use. it fits into our smaller and larger car and is easy to assemble and put down. I absolutely love it. the shopping tray at the bottom is huge which is brilliant as i end up with so many things when i am out and about. My little bky also finds it so comfy. he grew out of the bassinet quite soon but we got an insert fir the chair and he loves it!
The basket size is invaluable. Plenty of room for shopping etc. The handle is adjustable too!

I absolutely love this travel system. So many positives. The uv shade is perfect for travelling in any direction. My little one was comfortable in the carry cot and the chair. The adaptability of the chair was great so he could sit and sleep comfortably at all times. The adjustable height handle was amazing- his uncles and Grandad are over 6ft2 so it made it comfortable for everyone to push. The basket was superb- perfect for shopping and bottle bags. So much room meaning you could bring the rain cover easily as well as everything else.
The weighted nature meant that the nappy bag was able to hand comfortably on the handle as it rested in the basket taking the brunt of the weight so there was no danger of it tipping. I’m going to be using this for my newborn and 2 year old in February. I’ve purchased adapters in order to use seat and carrycot at the same time :) Overall, the best purchase I made for my little boy :)
I have the vista in dark grey. Absolutely love the product due to the ease of use and lightweight structure. Can easily fold it and put it in the car. We have a maxi cosy car seat which fixes onto the frame. Would definitely recommend it to all as it’s easy to use on ground, grass and pebbled ground.
Can be adjusted for multiple children and has a highly adaptable handle.
Weaknesses:
It’s a little chunky for the boot.

After doing a bit of research we narrowed down our pram choice to two adaptable models with adjustable handles. The Uppababy won the battle due to its large storage basket which can remain in place even when an extra seat is added to the pram. Having a tall husband (6ft4), we needed a pram that would be comfortable for both myself at 5ft3 and my husband, the Uppababy has a adjustable handle that is perfect for the whole family.
The Uppababy is sturdy but also has a really smooth ride with a great turning circle. As the pram comes with a carry cot, seat, rain covers and bug shields it is good value for money. Due to the adaptable nature of the pram, we will be able to use the pram for our daughter when she is older as well as having space for a future baby. The material is beautiful quality and can be easily removed to wash. Collapsing the pram is so simple however it is rather bulky in the boot. Overall this is a great pram that is future proof and great for parents graced with a little bit more height!
Great buggy, my first choice for baby number 1. Sturdy frame and fabric materials. Carry cot very padded and really elegant. Only downfall we found really was we had to buy another buggy quite quickly as our son very tall for his age so he quickly outgrew the seat unit. Not a big issue but we found when folded we had to take the back wheels off to get it in the back of the car.
I got this in Kiddicare in a sale so we were really impressed with value for money. We got a whole travel system: bassinet, pushchair, adaptors for car seat, car seat and isofix base for under £800.
The chassis is easy to put up and down and the back wheels come off really easily meaning it can fit flat in the back of a smaller boot (Honda Jazz). It is robust and really smooth to push and my baby falls asleep every time we use it.
The bassinet was lovely and has a base which means baby could take long naps or sleep overnight in it if needed. The pushchair does parent and world facing really easily but only folds flat with it world facing.
The best bit is that the storage underneath is really spacious and takes a lot of stuff. I regularly get comments from other mums on how useful it looks.
If we decide to have another baby within 2years then it will easily convert into a tandem too which was another reason we chose this one.
It can be difficult to fold if you don't have the knack.

I bought my uppababy vista in 2014 with my 1st child, it is still being used 5 years later and still looks brand new. Its great for going to the beach and through the woods. Its a great product one i love.
I love love love my uppababy vista I really don't have much to say wrong about it apart from it only lasts up to 13 14month olds (I have chunky babies tho) the carry cot is amazing its so compact and I love how ther is built in sunshades on carry cot aswell as the seat unit very well designed its also an amazing push as it just glides by far this is my fav pram ever xx
I love this pram. I’ve used it for my 5 & 4 year old since birth - 3/4. It’s niwvsat waiting for the new baby due in September.
We live in the country it’s so perfect for long walks, it looks great I often got lots of compliments. The shopping basket underneath is huge. Folds great to fit the boot, you can take the back wheels off to create more space too. Wouldn’t hesitate to buy again and 100% recommend.
This travel system is now seeing us through our second child and with the buggy board accessory to help my 3 year old travel in style too it really is a super pushchair. Does regular shopping trips around town and with a huge basket it means I can do all my shopping with both children in tow with ease.

The Uppababy Vista is the perfect pram if you are looking for simplicity in set up and folding away. Easy to change the bassinet/car seat with a few simple buttons.
Smooth turning and easy to bump up curbs.
The large basket can hold a couple of shopping bags which makes it useful for on the go.
The pram comes with fly and waterproof covers. Multiple options for colours allows you to choose your style.

My favourite travel system, fell in love from the 1st push . Great for new baby with cozy carry cot. Amazing big basket underneath . With pouches for rain cover and insect net!
Perfect for a growing baby, all the stages covered!
Would 100% recommend to anyone!
Good looking pram, which doesn't disappoint on any surface, with a large basket, and easy to fold.

Great pram, has got everything you need from a newborn and the toddler. It's got a good amount of padding and plenty of space. Smooth on any surface, folds easily, and has the ability to switch seat direction. Fits in a medium-sized car with no problem. In all, great pram/pushchair- practical and pretty, which is a bonus. Absolutely love the size of the basket underneath- spacious and easy to access. The price tag is a little bit on a higher end, but the quality is really good, so worth it.

I loved the look and the general practicality apart from it being difficult to get in and out of the boot. It was easy to click on and of the base. The material looks and feels quality.
My son didn't like being in the bassinet so we didn't use it. I bought the snug attachment so was able to use the toddler seat from birth.
The only negative was it being difficult to get in my boot due to its size and sometimes the back wheels would catch on things as they are much bigger than the front.

A fantastic pram! A decent all terrain pram that also parent faces is hard to find, most only take a carrycot then go forward facing!
Carrycot is really good quality and designed for maximum comfort. Has air vents and fully extending canopy.
The seat unit is larger than most other proms so lasts for ages, my nearly 4yr old can still fit.
The basket is huge and can fit all you need and more, great for when you have multiple children and all their baggage!
I didn’t use it as a double but it’s great to have the option so it’s fantastic value for money!
We used the buggy board, it fits with lots of room for a toddler to stand and doesn’t effect the handling or steering of the pram.
It’s a very large pram though, which is fab but won’t be for everyone unless you have a big car boot!
High quality product, lots of little gadgets and safey features, easy to fold
Weaknesses:
Easy to scratch, back wheels are very wide, huge warning labels.

I love my vista! I brought this because I liked the option of being able to adapt this to a twin pushchair when I decide to have more children. From the moment it arrived in the packaging, you could tell it is a high quality product with extreme attention to detail. Easy to read safety features. Easy to fold and pack away. Extra large basket. Easy to take apart and wash. My vista is 9 months old and used every day, the metal frame has started to scratch due to the amount of use, it doesnt affect the use or quality.
This pushchair has been great for our needs, the basket is huge and it folds really flat, the wheels are quick release too, which is helpful as we need to remove them to fit in the boot of our car.
The wheels are quire wide and solid rubber, making this an option for some light off roading - we've taken it over dry fields and down gravel paths without drama.
First prAm for first child, tested a lot and this was by far easiest to put up and down. I would now having used it for a while and onto the pushchair stage a prAm that you don’t have to take the seat off to fold down. Very easily steered and lightweight, it will do my baby for a long time.
The breaks however are very sticky and sometimes takes a few clicks with the foot to get the break off and the chassis on the prAm scratches so easily.
But all in all a great prAm, I will be interested to see how it works if I have to add a second set of adapters for a second child.
Great to steer, strong, dependable. Massive basket. Bassinet suitable for night sleep
Weaknesses:
Very wide and quite heavy, cost to make into a double.

I have a toddler and now a newborn and have mixed feelings about this Pram 2 years in. I have the 2015 version, earlier versions were slightly different.
I love the colour and the quality of the pram. It feels expensive and the fabric in the bassinet is divine ! Absolutely perfect for a newborn (having brought it back out for number 2 I really can say it helped me fall in love with it again a little bit!). Bonus is the bassinet can be used for overnight sleeping, not all prams have this feature and made it very useful for grandparent visits. It has a great one hand removal mechanism and is easily clicked into the frame.
The follow on seat is durable and has great recline. Still perfect for my 2 year old and I imagine I'll get another year at least out of it. All rain covers are included in original package and are great. It can front and parent face; I have even made a few clumsy change overs from front to parent facing whilst baby was in the seat (awkward but possible ). Positive is the pram can fold with the toddler seat attached if front facing.
I bought a maxi cosi car seat so it fit on the pram with the suitable adapters.
Whilst the pram is a great, strong and reliable push for long walks, it makes it slightly wide for shopping and general window shopping whilst on maternity leave! I found I was always getting stuck and apologising to people, asking them to move in cafes so I could get through. It is as wide as a wheelchair and whilst most places are accessible, it is much wider than my sisters pram and most others. The big wheels add to the clumsiness at times. It does fold up well, but again is large and quite heavy I found especially when I was pregnant. Took up most of the room in my Nissan Juke boot.
I have also got quite frustrated since having baby number 2 and realising the cost of making it a double. £25 each for upper and lower adapters (you need both, so £50) plus about £180 for another rumble seat because the toddler seat can only be used in the double configuration on the top only. I found this was an expensive pram in the first place never mind the additional cost.
All in all a great pram, but when out and about it has frustrated me in terms of size and I may be tempted to buy a cheap buggy when babies are older (which seems a pity when original pram is such an investment). If I was buying again I would probably go for something smaller, or at least buy this second hand because it would be cheaper and due to how durable it is I imagine a second hand one would still be in great condition.
Brought this pram just before the birth of my second child. In last two weeks before my baby was born, I used this pram for my four years old. He is quite tall, but that wasn't a problem with Vista. Lot of room when using pushchair bit. It was easy to push around too, as I practically did not feel any weight. Once my baby was born, changed it to carrycot and loved it. Bassinet is quite high up, so you don't strain your back. Pushing is easy, apart from inside shop, if it is quite full of fixtures, as you could easily catck back wheels on them as they are wider than front ones. Shop to avoid most is sports direct, as they stands are close together. We love walking a lot, so this pram is perfect for us. Solid wheels means no risk of punchure while out and about. Sturdy enough to go of road. Underneath basket is big, good for lk larger shopping trip, or day out. Vista feature pull out sun shields, handy for sunny days. Handle adjust, so good for tall or short person. Brakes easy to use. When using pushchair bit, it could be moved in different positions. From sitting upright to lying flat. All in all I love it.
I bought this pram in 2015 when I was expecting my first. The vista is a good pram, I found it to be very sturdy and reliable. At the start I did have some trouble steering but then I figured out that I had a wheel lock on that was preventing the wheels from moving as freely as they could. The downsides I had with with pram. I was driving a cross at the time and when folded the pram took up my entire boot. When using the carry cot, I had to put it in the back seats. If I was being really fussy i would say there is a bit of a knack to getting the pram folded but over all a great pram and still feels sturdy enough to use when I have my second next year.
Excellent quality travel system with study base and all round suspension for any terrain.
The bassinet is comfortable and warm, and flattens for storage/transport. It can also be used for occasional overnight sleeping which is a bonus.
The blue Taylor fabric looks great and is easy to wipe clean. The leather handles are a nice touch too.
The tap on/off break is secure and easy to use, and the front wheels can be locked for rough terrain
It’s not the lightest pushchair, and although it collapses well and can freestand upright we have to remove one of the wheels to fit it in the boot of my wife’s VW Polo.
Overall an excellent product and would highly recommend.

It's a brilliant pram for different terrain like stones etc, the bigger wheels help with little extra effort, was a nightmare to get the chassis replaced however after a fault occurred it took weeks to be resolved but was given a replacement to use in the mean time
I first viewed and tested this product in the US when I was 6 months pregnant and fell in love with it. When I returned to the UK I ordered it straight away and have never looked back since!
