I feel like it depends how washable they are. We have the Nuna light grey (Nordstrom curated) and the fabrics are super high quality and when washed come out like new. I prefer the light color because it doesn’t get as hot.
We got a Nuna Demi. I did a lot of research, and it was the best combo I found - wool for a lot of it, no flame retardants, and newborn safe. It can lay flat enough for a newborn with the base seat, compared to some other Nuna models (though there are other Nuna models). We returned the bassinet, as I didn’t like the materials (description didn’t match content), and the size was too unique for sheets. You could also get a Pipa car seat and attach it, but we opted for a Rava.
I think you either mean Nuna Demi or Uppa Baby vista. I really do think there can be a difference in fabrics and comfort. For me the most important thing that lead me to Nuna was being flame retardant free & PFAS (forever chemical) free. Now if those aren’t deal breakers for you, you could certainly be happy with some other travel systems. I have a love hate relationship with our Nuna Demi. I bought it because it converts into a double stroller, thinking we’d have multiple babies. But we’re probably now in the “one and done” crew. So I’m stuck with a very heavy stroller & wont be using the biggest benefit of the stroller. If I could go back in time, I’d probably get the Nuna Triv instead.
I went with Nuna Demi cause I liked the double configurations better. I’ve been told the vista is difficult to push once you have both kids on it. Since the bigger weight is in the front. Butt I have heard that Nuna customer service is trash and uppababy is amazing. So that’s something to keep in mind.
Following this because I’m in the exact same boat, deciding between the uppababy vista and the nuna Demi, both about the same price. We thought it was a somewhat reasonable price for a good stroller but the reactions have been mixed haha.
Pretty much yes haha. Also just people with more vs less money, my mom was like “that’s a lot but it’s probably worth it!” And my husband’s parents were stunned, like “I think they have some for $100?” Hahah. The Demi is basically the Nuna version of the Vista, built for multiple kids. I’m pretty set on the Nuna pipa rx for the carrier so I’m temped to go for the Demi and do the whole Nuna package. I tested both in a store and the Vista does feel slightlyyy sturdier, and you can use an adapter to put the Pipa carrier on the Vista. But when you use the Vista in two child mode you have to put the baby on the bottom and the older kid up top, which just feels kinda weird to me. The child seat is also smaller on the Vista with a lower weight limit. Also the Demi folded a lot nicer than the Vista in my opinion, and was easier to pick up and carry. I have a friend with the Demi and one with the Vista and they both totally love them so I feel like it’s hard to go wrong with either, but the stroller world has SO many options that making a decision has been really tough haha.
We are obsessed with our nuna demi and bassinet attachment! Use the bassinet around the house all the time too!
Our daughter is 3.5 years old now, but when she was smaller we used the Bugaboo Butterfly + Nuna Pipa Lite and the appropriate stroller adapter and it worked great, especially given that the Butterfly does a great single-handed fold and is super compact (it’s rated to fit in most airplane’s overhead bins). During the newborn phase we also had one of the giant Nuna strollers and bassinets; it was good for staying local to the neighborhood, doing walking naps, etc., but a solid travel stroller + attachments for whatever you need is far more versatile IMO
This is the best advice. It’s a big purchase. Go anywhere you can physically test them out. I was set on an uppababy vista until I went to a Dillards and tried them out among other brands. We ended up choosing a Nuna Demi; it was best to test run how they all compared by feel, features, and price to find what best fit our needs.
