Wondering if anyone has tried both. The Vista looks great and I love how high up the seat is so you can use it as a seat to put your baby in not just a stroller. But I also want to be able to fold it well and not be too heavy. I was thinking of the bugaboo butterfly but now I am considering either the vista or dragonfly since I don't have a single stroller besides a doona (I use a double bugaboo donkey even with one). Oh, I also want something that can recline far back... I think the dragonfly does that but not the butterfly?

Also, I don't really use the bassinet ever so that's not something I care about.

Thoughts? Thanks!!

The Vista is so heavy and huge. Doesn't sound like something that fits your needs.

You'd probably want to compare it to the smaller uppababy version.

She means the UPPAbaby Cruz. It's a better option for her than the Vista, because it's more compact and does not include the bassinet (which is sold separately). It's a great choice!

yes, sorry. I'm not so familiar with the uppababy brand... I thought the one that it seems everyone has is the vista. But I'm open to whatever the ima experts have to say!!!

I’ve had both. The whole reason I like the vista is the bassinet. The dragonfly gets my vote.

The Cruz and Vista are very similar, with similar features and same quality, except that the Cruz is a bit smaller and more compact.

The dragonfly has a tiny tiny hood. Very weird in proportion to the carriage. I loved it otherwise but couldn’t get past that- winter wind blowing in my kids face/ can’t cover for the kid to nap etc.

It’s most equivalent to the uppa Cruz (midsize) . The fox would be the equivalent bugaboo to the vista (full size stroller)
