Instagram: Two Choices for Double Strollers
Today Enelio reviews his two choices for double strollers - the UPPAbaby Vista V2 with two UPPAbaby Mesas, and the Bugaboo Donkey 3 with two Nuna Pipas!
The VISTA V2’s intuitive design allows for multiple configurations. The V2 promises for a smoother ride, even when moving up to three children. With the now included Carrycot that is perfect for naps on the go. With just one hand you can detach the included Carrycot and carry a sleeping baby. The Ventilated canopy unzips for additional airflow, and extendable pop-out UPF 50+ sunshade shields your child from harmful UV rays, keeping the baby cool and comfortable.
The perforated mattress pad and vented base allow for added breathability and the water-repellant inner liner repels spit up, sweat, and other liquids, keeping the baby's sleeping surface dry and comfortable. The Carrycot depth and ventilation create a perfect overnight sleeping solution. Snap it into the Carrycot Stand accessory for a secure and elevated fixture for the baby to rest easy. The Vista V2 also boasts a reversible seat where the baby can ride forwards, backwards, completely upright, reclined and anywhere in between. The multi-position recline allows your child to lie comfortably for naps or sit upright to take in the sights, offering the flexibility your toddler needs. The Vista V2 is perfect for multiples! For twins, the Vista allows for two infant car seats, two Carrycots or two seats! The zip-out canopy on our Toddler Seat extends to shield your child from UV 50+ rays. The adjustable handlebar extends for parents of varying heights and features premium, full-grain leather for extra grip. The height-adjustable canopy accommodates growing children. The Vista V2 provides a one-step fold that is easy. The stroller stands on its own when folded and can be folded with or without the Toddler Seat attached. The large opening accommodates up to 35 pounds and has an all-weather cover. The shock-absorbing, all-wheel ensures your child has a smooth and comfortable ride at all times. Select infant car seats attach to the Vista with our car seat adapters. The Vista is compatible with select Maxi-Cosi, Nuna, MESA, BeSafe and Joie infant car seats with our Car Seat Adapter accessory.
The MESA is so intuitive that it maximizes every ease and works hard to minimize error, which allows parents to move forward with confidence and security. The MESA is the only infant car seat that utilizes a tightness indicator and self-retracting latch connectors. This provides fast, accurate, and easy installation that takes the worrying and guesswork out of moving baby safely from point A to point B. An indicator window changes from red to green for visual confirmation the base has been installed correctly every time. This is one contributing factor for MESA’s 5-star rating. The MESA car seat comes with The Auto-retracting LATCH, unlike traditional latch connectors, the MESA’s system tightens easily, ensuring that it minimizes any installation errors. It also included a streamlined, low-profile base with a finished bottom to prevent damage to vehicle seats. The level indicators on both sides of the base and multiple foot positions allow for easy and effective leveling. The MESA’s headrest is reinforced with EPP foam providing added protection for the baby. The integrated design keeps an infant’s head stationary during a side impact collision. MESA’s unique no-rethread, five-point harness adjusts with the headrest, eliminating the need to take the harness system apart as the baby grows and providing reassurance the harness is installed correctly each time. The MESA also provides an integrated and extendable canopy that provides the baby with extra protection outside and conveniently tucks away when not in use. Through its use of Merino wool, the HENRY and JORDAN MESA fashions are the first car seats to pass federal safety standards without the use of fire retardant chemicals. Included with added safety, the Merino wool keeps the baby cool on hot days and warm on cool days. The included infant insert and adjustable harness and crotch strap settings create a safer riding position for preemies and small newborns. Perfect for babies 4 pounds and up! The MESA paired with the Vista stroller delivers a Performance Travel System that is the ultimate in portability and safety. A quick press of the button on the top of the carrier handle releases it from the stroller. The MESA can be positioned to face you while strolling or pull up to a table without the handlebar in the way. Weighing in at 10.4 pounds, the MESA promised to keep the baby secure.
