Its SmartSecure Technology, premium build, and seamless integration with UPPAbaby strollers make it a standout product in the infant car seat category.

I purchased this as a gift for my son and daughter-in-law who were expecting their first child. I was very happy with the high quality of the product. The plastic chair/shell is very sturdy yet light weight. The fabric is soft and comfortable with ample protective padding. It is easy to install in the vehicle and just as easy to remove to use in the stroller. It's well worth the price to protect my new granddaughter.

Great carseat. Baby seems comfortable in it. Very easy to get in and out of a vehicle. My husband did struggle getting it tight enough to the seat. He just had to really use some muscle to get it adjusted. The carseat is light weight and not to heavy with baby in it. Get value for the color. The color looks good. It does not have any cup holders.

I know my baby enjoys this carseat. It has extra support and cushioning and it perfectly fits around my baby. The feel of the fabric is also very nice and comfortable. It is worth every penny and is a very luxurious carseat.

This car seat is next level. The installation was a BREEZE. There are levelers for everything ensuring your baby is safe and secure. We have the stroller as well and love that this clicks right in. Uppababy products are worth the investment!

Love the car seat and connects with the uppababy strollers with ease. No additional connectors needed for the Vista V2 that we bought. The fabric feels great and looks comfortable for the newborn.

I LOVE this car seat. We got very lucky and started using it a week ago with our newborn. He sits in it comfortably. There’s a lot of extra padding to ensure safety and comfort. I like that the padding is tight around his little head making it even more relaxing for both him and I. The buttons are all easy to push, I do struggle with the button that the two clips clip into. I also don’t like when you put up the sun blocker that it clicks loudly. But quality is over the top, looks absolutely amazing. Everything is adjustable to your growing baby.

I have 3 kids and have had several UPPAbaby seats through the years and their entire travel system plus all the accessories. I have always loved the convenience and style of the UPPAbaby car seat but with my 3rd baby, we originally wanted to try out another brand similar to UPPAbaby that was baseless as we needed the flexibility of no base when trying to squeeze 3 large car seats in my car. While that other brand's seat was convenient, it just didn't feel as secure as the UPPAbaby seat.My husband was actually in a vehicle accident with 2 of my kids in the car (everyone was save, except the truck was totaled) and because of that, we had to get all new car seats, fortunately covered by insurance. Thankfully my baby wasn't in the truck at the time, but the empty carseat from the other brand we had tested out was in there and then needed to be replaced. Instead of getting the same one from the other brand, we knew we immediately should go back to UPPAbaby because we trust the brand to keep our kids safe, even after testing other luxury brands. I'm thankful to have this seat and have trusted it with all 3 of my kids.It is also easy to take in and out of the car. I love that it has the slots to hold the buckles back, and has many inserts that can be taken out as baby grows. I do wish it was a little lighter and and possibly accommodated a bigger baby, but I think that's just part of how the seat as to be. I wouldn't say it's too heavy because honestly when you've got a 90th percentile 6 month old, any carseat is heavy! That said, my daughter is large (very long) and is starting to outgrow it already. Overall though, I have been very happy with this car seat.
