Chicco Nextfit and Uppababy Vista?

Chloe452 · January 2014

Does anyone know if the Chicco nextfit car seat can fit on the uppababy vista stroller? They have a Chicco adapter but since the Nextfit is so new, it only says that the adapter is meant for the keyfit. Baby is due next week and we just received our nextfit... Wondering if I need to exchange it or if I can just get an adapter (and if so, which one) Thank you!!

Like PP said. Its a convertible seat. Meaning its meant to fit baby/toddler rearfacing (until at LEAST 2, and as long as possible is preferred) then you flip it forward facing.

If you want a carseat that you can take with you and snap into a stroller, you want the keyfit. It does work great with the Vista with the chicco adapter.

That said, the nextfit is supposedly an awesome convertible. We are going to get one soon when DS grows out of his keyfit. They have one of the tallest shells, but compact front to back and are a breeze to install.

The other posters gave you the correct answer to your question but I wanted to add that if you have the Nextfit are fine with not using an infant bucket seat, that's perfectly safe as well. You would just leave the car seat in the car and move baby to the stroller or bassinet. The bassinet is SO nice on the Vista, I would just use the Nextfit and move baby to the bassinet when going out. It's nice for babies to get a break from being the car seat as well!
