Uppababy Cruz V2 VS Vista V2: Mechanics, Comfort, Use

[@BarnevognverkstedNo]

In order to keep our recommendations up to date, we maintain a 'Buyer's Guide' (with a wide spectrum of models, and a lot of technical and lifestyle-related information). Organizing our recommendations this way makes it easier to include good models that we haven't made review-videos for yet, as well as to remove models which have developed unforeseen wear-issues over time, or which have been weakened by the manufacturer in their current iterations. Our preferred method of interacting is via Patreon (as it’s easiest for 1-on-1 consultations), though, if you would rather not use Patreon, we also have it available through KZbin channel membership as well. You can access the guide via Patreon here: www.patreon.com/posts/stroller-buyers-37953864 . To, instead, access it via channel membership, you can click here: kzbin.info/door/GNHY3NivRdIIUX0K6xgniAjoin As an independent, consumer-oriented reviewer, we have fewer revenue-streams open to us than the majority of other channels out there, so any help you can give means a lot to us. Thanks for your support!

You make the best stroller reviews by far! Everyone else is a distant second.

Same here!

[@TheKhazar]

one suggestion would be to show them folded side by side if possible, so one can judge how big the difference in size is when putting into a car.

This was really useful. I'd love to see more videos which compare different models from the same company.

[@nomeus]

Thanks for the comparison. Do you think the larger Vista wheels would fit on cruz? from the looks they seem to have identical pins.

🎯 Key Takeaways for quick navigation: 00:01 🚼 The Uppababy Cruz V2 has shifted from a small urban design to resemble the Vista V2, but there are differences. 00:31 🪑 Both models have similarities in seating, with a slight weight disparity. Seats are suitable for children from six months to about three years. 01:13 🛠️ Both strollers have a similar chassis structure with positive qualities like a telescopic handle, metal usage, and robust folding systems. 01:56 🔄 While the core structures are similar, differences lie in the size, weight, and suspension system of the models. 02:10 ⚖️ The Cruz V2 is lighter, more compact, and designed for urban terrains. It can't fit the rumble seat and is priced lower than the Vista. 04:33 🎢 The Vista V2 is heavier but offers more capabilities. With bigger wheels and better suspension, it can handle rougher terrains. 05:59 🚌 The Vista V2's off-road capabilities are compromised when using the tandem seat, making it less maneuverable. 06:28 🤷‍♂️ The choice between the two models depends on one's needs, environment, and lifestyle. Cruz V2 is for smoother terrains, while Vista V2 is ideal for rougher areas. 07:10 🎥 Standalone reviews for each model are available on the channel for more details. 07:25 📚 For those shopping for strollers, a detailed buyer's guide is available on their Patreon page.

[@ellawittnebel3425]

It is an amazing product

[@sumairadaud]

so its kind of like how there's an elite and gt. frame wise they are very similar but wheel size/seat size is different.

[@deepakg1632]

Thank you for the comparison! Do you know if the Vista wheels fit the Cruz? Uppababy sells then as replacements perhaps that is a way to make the Cruz a little more robust. Thoughts?

[@foofstarr4856]

As a soon to be Dad who is, technical and OCD, I look to make logical decisions based off various factors besides the typical reasons (price, color or looks), and therefore agree with many that the Vista v2 would be more ideal for anyone who might be poppin babies back to back and will need that double stroller action, and lives in Michigan (pothole central, snow) so the bigger wheels and suspension is needed, and since we drive trucks and SUVs, trunk space is no issue. The ultimate decision here would be the Vista.

[@lauraolson1117]

Wondering, did you end up with the Vita? How did you like it? How did it do in Michigan winters?

[@nikkiconnors5]

Any tips on how to fix scratches on the Jake Cruz? Uppababy don’t seem to have any recommendations for any touch up paints!

[@josephinevera9966]

I was going to buy the jake. Did you find a solution. This is exactly what I am scared about the frame scratching.

[@Dugg124]

VERY helpful, thank you!

What age is good for bassinet ?

Thank you!

[@JY-tq4ir]

[@lailar4535]

Kan du lage en video på nxt 90f vs Maxi lila xp? :))

[@laraibabbasi5004]

Urgent plz!! Can the Cruz toddler seat be used with the Vista? Since the bassinet seems to go on both..

[@algorythym]

Yes. Structurally the strollers are the same.

[@algorythym]

the seat cannot be used to make a double stroller though.

[@louisevandenbroele3753]

I bought a Cruz V2 less than 6 months ago. My child is less than 10 kg. Today, one of the front wheels broke off. The top part is still in the fitting, but the rest of the wheel broke off. I am a foster carer for very young children and I have used push chairs for many years. This is the first time I have bought a new pram, and also the first time that anything like this happens. Horrible and way beyond acceptable!

[@carboogyful]

Definitely speak to manufacturers. Im sure they will replace or offer alternatives

[@louisevandenbroele1816]

@@carboogyful The new wheel fixed the problem and I hope that they will pass it on to their design team as the wheel, when broken, showed to be quite minimalist. And yes, the stroller is back in use. On the bad pavements in Ghent, Belgium, I lock the wheels now by way of preventing damage....
