7 Best Uppa Baby Strollers of 2025

Unleash your stride with the UPPAbaby Ridge, a high-performance jogging stroller built for parents who refuse to compromise on speed, stability, or safety. This isn’t just a stroller—it’s a trail-ready machine with 12″ and 16″ never-flat foam-filled tires that conquer gravel, sand, and city sidewalks without a hint of wobble. The patented two-stage suspension system, complete with variable coil springs, absorbs impact like a mountain bike, delivering a glass-smooth ride even with a sleeping infant. Whether you’re training for a 10K or tackling rugged hiking paths, the swivel-locking front wheel and disc hand brake give you precision control, making downhill runs feel effortless and secure.

In real-world testing, the Ridge shines across diverse terrain—from bumpy park trails to wet pavement—thanks to its deep-tread all-terrain tires and all-wheel suspension. The 4-position adjustable handlebar ensures a comfortable grip for runners of all heights, while the one-pull brake system (featuring intuitive red/green pedals) offers instant response with zero lag. The deeply padded, reclinable seat and extendable UPF 50+ canopy keep kids shielded from sun and wind, though the stroller’s bulk makes it less ideal for tight urban spaces or public transit. While it handles curbs and cracks with ease, the folded footprint is large, limiting storage in compact apartments or small trunks.

Compared to the UPPAbaby Cruz V3, the Ridge trades everyday compactness for serious off-road capability—it’s the trail runner’s dream versus the Cruz’s urban commuter finesse. It’s not meant for quick grocery runs or subway commutes, but if you demand a true parent-kid running partner, the Ridge stands alone. The PiggyBack board and bassinet compatibility broaden its lifespan, making it a long-term investment for active families. For those prioritizing rugged durability and running precision over portability, the Ridge delivers more performance per pound than any other stroller in the UPPAbaby lineup.

Lightweight doesn’t mean low on luxury—the UPPAbaby Minu V2 proves that travel strollers can be both compact and premium. Weighing just under 17 lbs, this featherlight machine is a carry-on champion, slipping into overhead bins and folding with a single smooth motion that’s perfect for jet-lagged parents. The built-in shoulder strap and carry handle make airport dashes manageable, while the 20 lb storage basket defies expectations for a stroller this small. Despite its size, it supports kids up to 50 lbs, making it one of the few travel strollers built to last beyond infancy.

In real-world use, the front and rear spring-action suspension delivers a surprisingly smooth ride on city sidewalks, airport terminals, and even cobblestone streets. The extendable UPF 50+ canopy with a vented peekaboo window keeps kids shaded and visible, while the multi-position recline and leg rest allow for true nap support—rare in travel models. It’s not designed for jogs or rocky trails, and the non-locking front wheel can wobble on uneven ground, but for urban explorers and frequent flyers, it’s a dream. The leather-accented handlebar adds a touch of class, though the basket access becomes tight when fully reclined.

Compared to the Minu V3, the V2 lacks the one-hand unfold and IATA-compliant dimensions, making it slightly less seamless for air travel—but it’s also more affordable. Against the Cruz V3, it’s clearly the portability king, though it sacrifices suspension performance and basket size. Ideal for grandparents, vacationers, or as a second stroller, the Minu V2 delivers UPPAbaby’s signature quality in a travel-ready form. For families who fly often or need a reliable backup, it offers more comfort and durability than most compact strollers, without the premium price of full-size models.

Twin parents, rejoice—the UPPAbaby Minu Duo delivers a rare side-by-side double stroller that’s actually compact enough for city life. With two full-size, from-birth seats, this stroller treats both children equally—no front-and-back hierarchy—making it perfect for twins or close-in-age siblings who want to interact while riding. The independent recline and footrests mean one child can nap while the other stays upright, and the 50 lb weight limit per seat ensures longevity well into the toddler years. At just 29” wide, it slips through doorways and Disney park gates with ease, a huge win for theme park families.

On the move, the Minu Duo handles sidewalks, mall floors, and airport terminals with grace, thanks to its smooth-rolling wheels and front suspension, though it’s not built for jogging or rough terrain. The one-hand fold with locking latch collapses the stroller in seconds, and it stands when folded—a rarity for doubles. The 25 lb basket is generous for its class, and the dual extendable UPF 50+ canopies with peekaboo windows offer excellent sun protection and visibility. However, the side-by-side design sacrifices maneuverability in tight spaces compared to tandem models, and the lack of all-wheel suspension means bumps are more noticeable.

Compared to the Vista V3 with a second seat, the Minu Duo is lighter and more travel-friendly, but less rugged and not expandable beyond two kids. Against the Ridge, it’s clearly not an outdoor performer, but it wins on urban practicality and sibling bonding. Ideal for city-dwelling parents of twins or young siblings, it offers more comfort and interaction than narrow tandem strollers, without the bulk of full-size doubles. For families who prioritize connection, compactness, and convenience, the Minu Duo delivers a uniquely balanced blend of space, portability, and UPPAbaby’s premium build—making it the most agile side-by-side double on the market.

The ultimate family stroller has evolved—the UPPAbaby Vista V3 is a masterclass in modularity, comfort, and long-term design. With over 30 configurations, it starts as a single stroller and effortlessly scales to carry up to three children, making it the most future-proof investment for growing families. The one-handed, multi-position toddler seat reclines fully and flips to parent- or forward-facing, while the integrated foot barrier and infant insert ensure newborns ride safely from day one. Wrapped in GREENGUARD Gold and REACH-certified materials, it’s as safe as it is stylish.

On the pavement, the Vista V3 glides with remarkable ease, thanks to its enhanced all-wheel FlexRide suspension that smooths out cracks, curbs, and cobblestones. The extendable UPF 50+ canopy with mesh panels and peekaboo window provides excellent sun and airflow control, and the 30 lb extra-large basket swallows groceries, diaper bags, and stroller toys without breaking a sweat. The telescoping handlebar adjusts for tall and short parents, and the one-step fold is genuinely simple—plus, it stands when folded, a huge plus for storage. It’s not the lightest or most compact, but for a full-size stroller, it’s impressively manageable.

Compared to the Cruz V3, the Vista offers greater expandability and capacity, though it’s slightly bulkier. Against the Minu Duo, it’s more rugged and versatile, supporting both side-by-side and tandem setups with add-ons. It’s the best overall choice for families planning more than one child or those who want a single stroller that adapts for years. With superior suspension, larger storage, and more configurations than any other model, the Vista V3 delivers more long-term value, comfort, and flexibility than any stroller in UPPAbaby’s lineup—making it the undisputed king of full-size family mobility.
