Uppababy Vista opinions/reviews
Originally...my dh and I were thinking about purchasing the Bugaboo Cameleon...we love they way it looks and how smoothly it rides. Baby bargains also recommends the Uppababy....its cheaper and I love the fact that u can purchase a rumbler (I think that's what its called) for a toddler to use while ur new baby rides on top....and that u don't have to take apart the stroller to put in the car.
Does anyone have the uppababy? What do u think? What do you love and or hate about it. Would you recommend it?
I think the 2010 model comes out in January. I'm due December 9 th....but I can just get the snap and go until the newer model comes out.

Re: Uppababy Vista opinions/reviews
The two points you made are exactly why i'm interested in this one. We have a regular car, not an suv so the fact that it can fold with the seat on it is a huge plus for me. Also we are hoping to have two children not too far apart so the ability to add the rumble seat is great.
Also it comes with a few accessories like the rain cover and sun cover. I believe with the bugaboo everything comes separate. My cousin just got the bugaboo with a rumble seat for their 2 year old so i am going to try to see it or test it in person.

Re: Uppababy Vista opinions/reviews
My friend has one and initially she loved it but just the other day she told me how she wishes she got a Bugaboo instead. She loves the basket on her UppaBaby but she likes the customizable fabrics on the Bug as well as the fact that the Bugaboo is lighter and that it has a smaller footprint than the Uppa. Also yes the Bugaboo closes in two pieces but if the UppaBaby is facing you and you need to close it you have to either turn it around first or close it in two pieces. I don't think you can go wrong with either one though.

I have the Uppababy Vista and DS loves it. He is now three months and loves the basinet feature. I love this stroller it really is a smooth ride and very easy to close. I was thinking of the cameleon, but the salesperson told me that the toddle seat gets outgrown very quickly, and on the Uppababy it holds a toddle up until 50lbs.

We have the Vista also and love it. We bought the Piggyback for DD and she loves that also. I also bought the adapter for the Chicco carseat so I havent used the bassinet yet . The stroller is awesome.. so worth the money!

Re: Uppababy Vista opinions/reviews
I forgot to mention that one of the reasons my friend stopped using hers is because the Uppa doesn't sit fully upright and I could swear that she told me that it does not fully recline either. Now that her DS is older (20 months) he hates to be sitting slouched. The Cameleon has a straight upright position and a larger seat than the Uppababy. DD is tall (34") and would not be comfortable in the Uppa but still has room in her Cammy. I'm just mentioning all these points because besides furniture the stroller is one of the biggest purchases. I obsessed for months over stroller purchases. Good Luck!

From what i have read....the 2010 model has 4 recline positions and you can position it upright. Its one of the things they fixed from the 2009 model.
