Uppababy Cruz, anyone got one/ had one and would you recommend ?

[firstimer30s]

Was going to get the chameleon bugaboo but this looked just as good, if not better and it is significantly less money.
Anyone got this and would you recommend ? (Or advise against?)

Thanks!

I have a vista and it has been great, so I'm sure the cruz is too. The vista's great for long walks, carrying supermarket shopping, and the ganoosh footmuff is great in the winter.

Their uk customer service is excellent.

I think if you are between a bugaboo and an uppababy the vista is more comparable than the cruz. It's cheaper than the cam and comes out better in reviews. I asked about the cruz when we decided on the vista and I can't for the life of me think what the sales assistant said but it was along the lines of the cruz being smaller and less sturdy and no much point in comparing between the 3 as it would always come up short for our requirements

Hope that garbled nonsense makes sense!

I have a vista and friends have the cruz and cam. The vista is more like the cam as others have said. The cruz is more of a stroller and has a much harder ride. Nice colours though!

we have a vista, its great, and very good value for money, they are stocked by lots of smaller shops, and also john Lewis, certainly worth having a look at one!!

Thanks! Is the vista cosy for a newborn and easy to fold/ handle? I will be doing a fair amount of busses, walking and dragging up stairs....

It's extremely cosy for a newborn, the carrycot is just beautiful.

But it's not easy to fold with the carrycot on, no (nothing is really). It's a one piece fold with the seat facing forward but remove the seat if parent facing. The cruz is the same only slightly lighter. The cam always requires removal of the seat and is also lighter.

If you want light and easy have you looked at the baby joggers? e.g. citi mini if you don't mind forward facing only for the seat, versa if parent facing essential.

Thanks glorious. Have looked at them but not in depth. Am torn between light and easy and sturdy and super safe.... going round in circles frankly and baby is due in 4 weeks!

We have a Cruz on order (black seems to be out of stock everywhere at the moment)

Ticked all the boxes for us as looks stylish, large shopping basket underneath and is quite narrow with smallish wheels. We have bought the carrycot for it - I know a lot of people have said it doesn't get used that much but I plan walking quite a bit when I first have the baby and so car seat clipped onto the frame for long periods isn't really an option.

We will not be using it "off road" and we have narrow door frames. Cheaper than a Bugaboo as well, which seems like paying for just a brand name!
