Which pushchair should I get?

I’m torn between two pushchairs, the Bugaboo Fox and the Uppababy Vista. Lifestyle wise, we live in a small hilly town so need something easy to push with reasonable suspension. We also walk on forest paths and parks with the dog (we are also looking at slings). Both pushchairs would fit in the boot of the car. We don’t use buses, we mostly walk or drive places.

Pros of the Uppababy is that the carrycot is rated for overnight sleeping, there is potential to add another seat as a stop gap if the need arises, larger shopping basket, and it is more robust than the Bugaboo.

Pros of the Bugaboo is that it is lighter, easier to manoeuvre, folds with the seat reversed, and is narrower so would fit into smaller places (lots of smaller shops in my town).

Does anyone have either of these prams and what do you think of them? Are there any other pushchairs which I should be considering?

Vista. I had one and it was brilliant. Ended up with two kids in it, and could still fit a decent amount of groceries in the basket.

Our kids were pretty tall and they were never squished in it, plus husband and I are tall and didn’t have to stoop to push.

Ours got loaded in cars, planes, trains etc without a problem. It wasn’t ideal for subways due to its size, but we didn’t tend to use them except on holiday.

Still think they look great too 🙂

I think I'm leaning towards the Vista. It seems great, and there have been so many improvements with the newest model.
