Stroller help. Uppababy. City mini

I originally wanted the uppababy vista but if I'm not going to use the bassinet it doesn't make much sense.

Dd is 7 weeks (almost) and I'm loving the chicco key fit snap and go since its mostly being used from the car. I love that I don't have to wake her to get her between car seat and stroller.

I'm thinking for future to get either the uppababy Cruz or citimini. Any feedback on either?

Tx!

I like my city mini but looking back... I'd go with what's cheaper. The Brita b-agile (I think it's that one) is very comparable to the city mini and about $50 cheaper. not too big, light weight, and folding ease were important to me. But I have to say I love the large canopy!

i never used the uppa baby but i love the city mini. the only downfall is the small basket under the seat but it is so easy to maneuver and fold and has a nice large sun canopy.

I have the Uppababy Vista. I went to the store going to order the City mini but I could not get over the size and location of the basket.

I looove the Uppababy. It pushes sooo easily and I like that the frame can face front or back.

Re: Stroller help. Uppababy. City mini

I actually just posted an issue I'm having with the b-agile, which is similar to the city mini. The seat does not have enough side supports for my petite 8 month old. So while I've never tried the uppa baby, I would take that into consideration. I have a feeling I'm going to have to put away my stroller until she is older. I can only use it with the infant seat...

I love love my uppa but I just got the city select as a double and I'm happy with it, so if you are planning on more kids I would recommend that since the second seat for the uppa sucks

I have both and while the citi mini is super easy to fold and doesn't take up a lot of space the Uppa baby is just so great. DD likes that it sits up high...the basket below holds so much stuff...its a solid great stroller...DD is now 27 months and we still use the Uppa baby. The only person who uses the Citi Mini is my MIL because its easier for her to use.

Thanks! For those that are referring to the uppa is it the vista or the Cruz? I love the. If basket underneath. The Cruz is a lot cheaper, like $300 cheaper and I'm. It sure I need the bassinet for the vista. It would be different if I lived in the city, but everywhere we go it's in the car.

Have you looked into baby jogger city Versa? After much research, asking here and everywhere, comparing and searching I discovered the Versa and we LOVE it.
The seat is revirsable, folds both ways, reclines all the way bith ways , the basket underneath is huge , it's very smooth rideb and easy to push.

I love my Uppa Cruz. Great basket, easy push, easy fold, not terribly heavy. I also tried out the Citi Mini. It was ok but I wasn't in love with it. My son loves the uppa.

Now..,,only down side to the Cruz is if you were to have a 2nd, it is not expandable to a 2nd baby, so you'd be investing again in a double stroller.

Re: Stroller help. Uppababy. City mini

We have the city mini and the jjcole broadway stroller. i love the broadway and used it all the time when dd was smaller- it's like our luxury stroller, but i almost exclusively use the city mini now because it is so easy and lightweight. I don't know about the uppababy but everyone I know with the citymini is extremely happy.

Thanks everyone. I will def check out the versa as well. As for a 2nd kid, I thought about that with the Cruz. But we shall see.
