  • Don't love. Straps are so hard to tighten and I never feel like baby fit well. It's also VERY heavy compared to others. The ease of using it with our Vista was the only selling point. Sep 21, 2023

  • I love the carseat but it is not that comfortable once your little one starts growing bigger - tends to feel squished inside. The setup is super easy which is a HUGE plus. Sep 20, 2023

  • This is prefect for babies! Out girl loved it! very comfortable and easy to get baby in and out! Aug 02, 2023

  • A good seat for young babies. I have one from 2020 and the shade is pathetic, but I think they changed that now so hopefully it's better. I wish I would have gotten Nuna. Jul 29, 2023

  • Both of my babies hated this seat, I don’t know why, maybe it’s hot, maybe it positions them uncomfortably. It’s heavy, honestly I would just buy a lighter car seat and the adapter for the vista. Jul 16, 2023

    Love this car seat! It's so convenient it fits onto the vista, and it's roomy and the installation couldn't be easier. Jul 09, 2023

    Actually have the 2020 one! Love that it snaps into the stroller. Apr 01, 2023

  • Love that it seamlessly works with our UB vista v2 travel system! Mar 13, 2023

  • Love that it clips into the Vista stroller. Also very easy to use on an airplane or with a lap belt in a rental car. Wish it wasn't so heavy & that the sun shade offered more protection. Feb 08, 2023

  • Use with my Vista all the time for running errands. My baby is small for 8 months, but is still comfortable and happy in it. Easy to adjust as he grows. We like the snap in base for ease of use. Jan 13, 2023

  • Great car seat. Easy to clean, easy to clip in. Jan 03, 2023

  • It was my #1 must have item on my registry due to its safety ratings. Get the base!! It makes installation 1000% easier and more secure. Love the design & durability & ease to clean Sep 22, 2022

  • Loved! Sep 01, 2022

  • Love this carseat especially combined with the Cruz Stroller. Makes it easy to transport baby from car to stroller and back while I am out shopping. Baby seems comfortable in it and good materials! Sep 01, 2022

  • If you have the stroller, go with the car seat and have a base for each car. You don't want to wake a child up after being rocked to sleep and this is an easy transition from car to stroller. Aug 17, 2022

  • Loveeeee my Uppa baby car seat! So cozy and baby loves it Jul 31, 2022

  • Great quality and love the ease of snapping in and out of our Uppababy Cruz stroller. We feel good knowing our baby girl will be safe with the great ratings this carseat has. Jun 16, 2022

  • As an owner of a Nuna Pipa and the Mesa, the only benefit of Mesa is not needing an adapter for my Vista (still need adapters for my Minu). It is definitely less secure without the base than the Pipa. Apr 20, 2022

  • Really easy to install and to use, secure for my baby, lightweighted. Definitely would buy it again and again for next babies Mar 07, 2022

  • My favorite infant car seat! It seems so comfy and is very easy to adjust for a growing baby. The base makes installation super simple. Definitely recommend, especially paired with the Vista! Jan 19, 2022

  • Such a light weight and easy to install car seat. Baby seemed very comfortable. The canopy doesn’t leave much room for your arm when carrying. Wish the fabrics were more breathable to keep baby cool. Dec 31, 2021

  • I love that it connects to my stroller and it’s super comfortable for my baby Nov 24, 2021

  • Hard to fold stroller, kids can’t ride comfortably on here and it makes the stroller heavy and unstable Sep 20, 2021

  • I love how easy this connects to the Vista. The head support is amazing and keeps their head from falling when they fall asleep. The car seat itself is quite heavy, but the convivence is worth it! Sep 13, 2021

  • It's a good option. Seems comfortable, clicks easily into the base. A lot of colors to chose from. Also if you have the uppa baby strollers its easy to put in and out. Aug 02, 2021

  • We have used the car seat a lot. It is easy to install. The only draw back is my baby gets very sweaty in it during the summer. Jul 28, 2021

  • Love how light and easy it is to use with my UPPAbaby Cruz stroller. Babies get hot in car seats so we got the "Jordan" color since the material is much cooler than the "Jake" and "Bryce." Baby loves! Jun 16, 2021

  • We love the ease of buckling our baby into this car seat. It is one of the fastest outgrown infant car seats on the market due to its low weight limit. The car seat itself is also pretty heavy. Apr 20, 2021

  • Love this car seat the material is so soft my baby loves it and it’s so comfortable. We love this seat !! Apr 19, 2021

    I love that I can connect my Mesa Infant car seat directly to my UPPAbaby Cruz V2. So light weight and easy to use. I love it! Apr 09, 2021

  • This has been a great car seat for us, especially since our son is super long but very slim. He feels super snug and secure in it. Only downside is that it’s pretty heavy. Apr 08, 2021

  • Sturdy and love how it clicks right into the stroller. Plus has slits in the side to hold the straps while you put the baby in! Feb 27, 2021
