What reviewers say about the UPPAbaby CRUZ V2
Two whitelisted hands-on testers — Wirecutter (NYT) and Reviewed (USA Today) — rate the Uppababy Cruz among the best full-size strollers for everyday city use. Praise centers on the smooth ride, huge storage basket, doorway-friendly width, and excellent canopy coverage; both flag downsides, namely that it is awkward to lift once folded (no good grab point) and that the handlebar has only three settings. Neither review reports V2 lab-measured numbers.

Where reviewers disagree No real cross-source conflict — both testers rate the Cruz a top full-size stroller. Caveat: Wirecutter's guide now names the newer Cruz V3 as its main pick and notes its photos still show the V2, so its clean V2-specific commentary is limited (only the V2-explicit quotes are credited here). Reviewed's page is a standalone V2 review. Neither source reports V2 lab-measured numbers.

Source: littlefolksnyc.com (verified 2026-06-19) · corroborated by strollberry.com. Corrected 2026-06-19: original draft source (strolleria.com/pages/uppababy-vista-v2-review) was a VISTA review page, NOT topical to the Cruz V2 — replaced with the Little Folks NYC Cruz V2 product page. Price corrected from $699.99 to $899.99: $699.99 was the original 2020 MSRP, but the current published list price on the authorized retailer is $899.99 (often on sale ~$799.99); the Strolleria Cruz V2 URL now redirects to V3 content. Weight 25.5 lb (frame + seat) and folded 16.5 x 22.8 x 33 in confirmed by Strollberry spec sheet and multiple aggregators (Little Folks lists a 17 x 22.3 x 36 in measurement variation; the widely-cited 16.5 x 22.8 x 33 retained). Max child 50 lb. Released April 2020.
