UPPABABY VISTA V2
The VISTA V2 has been a popular choice for parents for many years. Why? It is luxurious and easy to use for parents and grandparents alike.
The fold is simple and the VISTA is decked out with lots of great features like an included sleep safe bassinet, no adapters required when using the UPPAbaby MESA V2 Infant Car Seat, and the ability to hold a second child when the time is right. We also love that the VISTA can accommodate bigger kids with a 50 lb weight limit on the seat and a no re-thread harness and canopy that can move up and down as your little one grows. Oh, and the basket that can hold up to 30 lbs. which is a great feature for your maternity leave shopping trips.

CITY SELECT 2 ECO
Baby Jogger has stepped up their game with a new aesthetic that we are loving on the City Select 2 and City Select 2 ECO strollers. The Select 2 models have gotten an overhaul in design and function and now have an improved fold to be about 20% more compact than other strollers on the market. With 24 configurations to choose from, this single stroller can be converted to a tandem double stroller for twins or when the time comes to add a second baby to your family. We love that both the included seat and the second seat can hold 45 lbs each. Suspension? Front wheel only.
So – what are the biggest differences between the Select 2 and Select 2 ECO?
The Select 2 ECO models are made with an earth friendly TENCIL fabric on the canopy and seat pads. The ECO model also comes with an included belly bar that is wrapped in a trendy perforated leatherette fabric. You can read all about the Baby Jogger ECO Collection in this article HERE.

NUNA MIXX NEXT
Next up is the Nuna MIXX Next Stroller. It has a compact fold and is packed with features that keep it functional for families but it’s also a great choice because it looks really good too.
You will love the no re-thread 5-point harness with self-guiding magnetic buckle for loading your squirmy little one in and out [oh, toddlerhood!] The flip out eye shade and all-season seat means it's great for the summertime offering baby lots of protection from the sun and lots of ventilation.
Yes, that’s right. The fabric in the seat can be completely removed to offer up a fully ventilated back for your baby! The MIXX Next from Nuna is a single stroller only — but it really does pack a lot of punch.

BUGABOO FOX 5
Say, “hello” to the Bugaboo Fox 5 Complete Stroller!Talk about luxury features! Bugaboo strollers are known for their smooth operation – but the Fox 5 has even more to offer than a fingertip push.
Expecting a summer baby? You will appreciate the impressive ventilation and “breezy panel” that surrounds the base of the included pram [bassinet] and a full coverage canopy that can be zipped out to create a cocoon suitable for napping on the go. We also love that the canopy can be changed to customize the look of your stroller [sold separately] depending on your mood, including a cool new Astro Purple colour.
Other features we love? A 50 lbs rider limit to keep up with the competition and a must-have no re-thread harness. The Fox 5 also features a height adjustable canopy, an extendable footrest, and one-hand adjustments to grow with your little one.
Just like the Nuna MIXX Next, the Fox 5 is a single stroller only but if you are looking for something just a premium but with double stroller capabilities read on – because the Donkey 5 may be the right choice for you.

BUGABOO DONKEY 5
The Donkey 5 is customizable and can grow with your family offering configurations as a double or single stroller and is the only side-by-side option we’ve showcased thus far. When you think about pushing TWO children – side by side just makes sense.
When using this stroller in mono mode [single] there is a convenient little side storage basket that you can use to store your goodies. It has a zippered top to keep valuables safe – or can be used as a shopping bag when you are out and about.
Ready to convert to a double stroller? You can easily make this change in x3 easy clicks – one on the handlebar, one on the bottom of the basket front, and the basket back. Then just expand the frame and add your second seat [sold separately] So, can you really push this stroller when it is fully loaded with TWO? The answer is a big Y-E-S! We credit that to the Bugaboo 1-touch smooth push paired with a killer set of 10” and 12” wheels that can power through any terrain. Go ahead and picture your little ones sitting side-by-side holding hands and taking in the world around them together!
