Someone please sponsor this video she did such a great job!!! Thank you so much u have just made things easier for a new father👌😅
Thank you so much!! I appreciate that and so happy I could help you out!!
Omgosh this is exactly what I needed to watch. Someone whose had the uppababy and reviewing another stroller. I'm totally going to get this set up! Thank you!
So happy I could help!
Thank you so much for making this I’m excited to go pick up my cybex tomorrow I was looking at the uppababy baby for a long time and I saw that the cybex was on sale at a store near me so I looked for reviews you saved me a few hundred dollars! And it looks amazing for my two kiddos!
You just taught me something new! I bought this car seat for my two-month-old back in October and asked the sales people about using the basket with the car seat, she told me I could only use it with the big seat and I never bothered trying til I saw your video!
Yay that's great to hear! I'm glad I could help! It's definitely a game changer!
Watched a lot of reviews on double strollers, but yours sold me on getting a Cybex! Mine just came in ❣️
I still have concerns if the cybex stroller toddlers seat can be reclined together
Both toddler seats can recline comfortably when you face both seats towards you 😊 I usually have both of my kids facing me and they still enjoy the view while on walks.
The only thing I didn't like about this stroller was traveling with it. I had the frame along with two toddler seats in the stroller bag and it was just a hassle to travel from Japan back to the US with all our bags and kids.
Oh my goodness thank you so much for sharing this information!! I was going to buy the UPPAbaby, but I don’t need the bassinet because I already have a Nuna Pippa car seat! And I thought it would just be a waste of money. But given all of the additional quirks that you had with it, I think I’m sold on the Cybex!
I love your review. That is exactly we need
Great review thank you, looking for something for our next one
After just 1.5 minutes I understood that it is the most useful overview for me! I’m choosing between bugaboo donkey and Cybex gazelle s, both have pluses and minuses
Hi did you make a decision? I am choosing between the same!
@@missfspiers my choice is gazelle, mostly because I prefer how it looks in one-child-position (without basket)
Thanks for the review 😍
Of course!
Such a great review!!! Thank you!!!!
You’re so welcome!
Awesome review, thanks!
I am so happy with my cybex!
I love this, thanks ! We originally had the cybex priam, and we loved it so much. But we have baby number two on the way so we def had to get a double since baby one will only be 14 months apart from baby two. I haven't used the Gazelle yet but I can't wait to put it to use soon.I love the Cybex stroller's I honestly think they are one of the best engineered.
They really are! I’m so excited for you to start using it!
I also have Priam. Now thinking to change to Gazelle because now we have 2 kids
I had made up my mind for the longest time about the uppababy vista but I didn’t know the rumble seat was only up to 35lbs and I was on the same boat as you with an 18month old. I went with the gazelle s and I’m satisfied with my purchase 😭
I’m so happy that I was able to help!
Hey Sandra, have you been liking the Gazelle so far? We got the same, we are due in Dec, but now i am confused between gazelle & UB Vista, Vista seems more solid in terms of frame and metal hinges. I fear Gazelle wont last as long. Your thoughts?
Really interesting review, however im confused about the folding cause you can fold the uppababy vista v2 with adapters and seats attatched but anyway glad you found the one you love :)
You literally said everything that I thought would be bad about getting a Vista! wow glad I trusted my instincts
Yay!!
Hello, great review! Just one more question - Can you attach the bassinet on top and the seat on the bottom front facing? If yes, can you recline the seat to lying position? Thank you
Hi! Thanks for your videos. Did you ever use the bassinet with the Cybex and did you feel like it was safe for your infant? I have read it’s not safe for overnight sleeping and that’s my only concern
Can you tell us how is it smooth on rocky trails or park? Some review pointed out it has poor suspension compare to Vista. so I'm worried about it.
How is it holding up one year after this video? It would be interesting to get a follow-up video as longevity is the big question mark about the Gazelle. Also does the length make it difficult to get it up onto curbs when there's a kid in the front?
Hi! One year and still going strong! No issues with it at all. Although it can be difficult to get up on curbs, it’s not any more difficult than the uppababy
I find the Uppababy v2 very easy to fold to standing - she probably needed more practice before selling it. You don't have to remove the main seat to fold even with the adapters on.
I just ordered this how well do you think it would fit on a flight cabin storage
Hi, i just bought the same stroller and car seat but didn’t find the adapters. What is the name of the adapters for the nuna pipa? Thank you xx
This was so helpful, thank you so much! I know the seat has a 50 pound weight limit, but do you happen to know approximately what the height limit would be? Is the seat larger/longer than the Vista toddler seat? Thank you!
Good question! I would say it’s slightly shorter than the vista although not by much!
Thank you for the review! This is the most valuable user review so far. Do you need any inserts for your new born? How do you think of the airflow? We’re living in a place where the summer is 6+ months. Do you have any light weight strollers recommended for flying with a infant/toddler?
You’re welcome! They don’t have any newborn inserts, but they do sell a bassinet called a carry cot for the stroller if you want to use it for a newborn. Not great airflow but I just take my little stroller fan with me when it’s really hot out and haven’t had any issue. For flying I actually LOVE the GB pockit all city. It folds up so tiny, reclines, and has adaptors for a car seat.
Bugaboo Bee5 Complete Stroller Is very light for daily use. We enjoying ours for more than a year. And now we’re looking in to
double strollers with good reclining feature.
Deff contemplating on buying this one!
Currently in the same boat my son is 2 and expecting my second ❤ i was uppa baby all the way until i realized it goes up to 35 lbs . Are you able to put car seat on top and basket on the bottom? Just curious
Hi!
Great review! I was super fan of the Cybex Gazelle but I tested both today and I found the Uppababy Vista 2 way easier to fold and way easier to take out and put in the seats/newborn kit… I think you have to push quite hard to fold the cybex down which goes almost automatically with the V2. Very important ergonomically speaking ;)
Do you not agree? Like to hear your thoughts!
I agree that the uppababy is easier to fold and the cybex has more of a learning curve but once you get it then the benefits to me are much greater with the cybex
The Cybex fold has an added safety to prevent a kiddo in upper position from being able to fold the stroller on themselves or their sibling. An extra step, yes, but makes the stroller that much safer. Plus you can fold the stroller with both seats attached and facing any direction. The UB will not do that.
Hey, have you had any challenges with removing the Nuna Pipa car seat from the Cybex adapters?
We were told by the store manager at Buy Buy Baby that the Cybex adapters are known for not working well with the compatible car seats (other than their own) and 4 of us including the manager seriously struggled to take the Pipa off the Cybex adapters, which is a big concern.
We now have to decide if it means returning the Gazelle we already bought and getting the Vista instead :/
Hey Staci! No I haven’t had a problem removing it at all! Did you press the right buttons on the pipa to remove it?
The Gazelle S from CYBEX is the only model in their lineup that is certified for use with: Nuna, Maxi Cosi, And Cybex with the included adapter, and more with their available two adapters (chicco, graco, peg perego, Britax, baby jogger).
The other strollers for Cybex are not a great fit for the Nuna infant seats nor are they certified from manufacturer. However, they work great with Cybex, Clek and Maxi Cosi infant seats with the included adapters for most other strollers in their lineup.
I’m 5’1 … my question is how heavy is it to lift into car once car seat is in the car ? I have to go up a flight of stairs every day
Can we use another brand infant car seat with this stroller? What is your car seat brand? Should it be cybex too?
Our first child is 3 years old, and the second is still a baby, tell me, is this baby stroller suitable for children right away or is it worth looking for something else?
I am almost sure that i will get Gazelle, I am only unsure about the cleaning, i have friends who have some strollers that can be unmounted very easy and washing machine washable. Any update about it?
Hi! Can you take this on flight? How heavy is it? Thank you!!
Are they plastic wheels ? And I’ve heard the seats are small. Would you say that’s the case ?
I think I'm still 50/50 this and the Uppababy. I've seen vids with the Uppababy folding really well in both single and double seat mode... but I was also instore last w/e and the assistant said the Uppababy won't fold w seats in... hmm...
Thank you for this amazing and thorough review! I am contemplating buying the gazelle S as I have the same demands like you had. I have one question though, could the carseat be put on top (you demonstrated it at the bottom but can the adapters also be put on the top?). So I want my newborn in the carseat facing me and my toddler at te bottom facing the streets.
Hi! I’m glad it was helpful! Yes you can absolutely put car seat on top facing you and bottom seat facing out to the street.
Which pipa did you get for the gazelle? Im 5’1” too and I soooo appreciate your recommendation and review!🙏🏽
Im glad you liked it! I got the Nuna pipa RX because of the dream drape (game changer and a must!) and you could install in a car without base for travel (we travel a lot so needed that). They just came out with pipa lite rx that has all the same features and is slightly lighter though!
@@breakfastwithtiffany8002 Amazing! Thank you! I def think the lighter car seat option would be helpful because I'm so small, but have you ever had an issue or concern with safety at all when using the pipa in your car at all? I was told I should get a heavier car seat for safety and security for car use, but since this is my first, I'm really not sure what's necessary and what's not. Appreciate your input, thank you!
@@billie5956 Hey! So with my first I had the uppababy mesa car seat and I actually like the Nuna pipa much better and felt as though it was safer because of the base (base has extra safety leg and the way it clips in, it doesn’t move at all). I have never felt like it was unsafe because it was on the lighter side. I feel like when you are small like us, a lighter car seat makes all the difference so I would go for it.
@@breakfastwithtiffany8002 Okay, that's really great advice. It's so nice to get insight from someone my height! Heavier could be "safer" but if we're not able to maneuver it well, it could end up being more dangerous for the little one. Thank you! Also, I was wondering if you could share any insight on the brakes and wheels- do you feel like the brakes are easy to use? As far as wheels, I do want something more "all terrain", do you feel like the gazelle can maneuver well on light gravel or more bumpy terrain than the usual sidewalk?
I went to a store & the lady there tells me UppaBaby will last much longer as compared to Gazelle S, because UB uses more metal in its hinges area, where as Gazelle S uses plastics, your thoughts? Visually I can see the UB also has more meat on the stroller frame but still weighs same as Gazelle S, what do you think of Gazelle for its longevity?
To be honest I had the same concern but we have had it for a few months now and it gets banged around quite a bit. Haven’t had any issues at all! The 50 lb weight limit on both seats was more important to me too.
The Gazelle S is actually 2 lbs lighter and is still using the same metal (anodized aluminum) as the UB. There is plastic on both strollers tho the Gazelle will have more due to the integrated adapters.
Hi! Have you taken the stroller to a park and driven through the grass with both babies? How was it? Pleaaaaaseeee!!!! Share your experience with us!
Yes I have! It’s not the easiest but I found it to be pretty similar to the uppababy. I feel like it maneuvers well even with my 36 lb son on the bottom seat!
How do you get the seat to fold forward so easily when closing the stroller? I’ve had now 2 sent to me and the seat seems stuck in 1 position. I’m using all my strength to pull the latch on back and fold but it doesn’t budge. Please help!
Cate, if your seat unit is stuck or not reclining, give CYBEX a shout and let them know. The seat should very much recline and fold on itself fairly easy.
Their phone number is located in the manual, or look at the very back for the number. Its printed right on the back.
Oh no, I’m so sorry I missed your comment! I agree though, I think you may have gotten a defective seat. I recommend reaching out to Cybex. The seats are usually super easy to close.
Is it possible to use the infant seat in the higher position (1)? Im pretty tall and I was thinking on buying a tall parent stroller such as the stokke xplory but It doesnt work for 2 babies .. what are your thoughts on this? Is it possible to use the Gazelle in a high position so I can made eye contact better? Thanks! :)
Hi! Yes you can use the adaptor for the infant seat in the higher position!
I am 6'1" and tested the Gaselle S in store today. It works for tall parents and the top seat can be adjusted in 3 positions. You can bring it closer to you, that's the feature I loved the most.
Please what's the name of the one in your background. How much was it. I have searching but I couldn't see anything that looks like what you have. Thanks !
Cybex GAZELLE S
Can the little storage shopping basket go on the bottom latches?
Unfortunately it can’t, I just purchased !
River and wilder?
How do you fold the gazelle while the seat is parent facing?
The seat folds forward in half before closing
I am thinking about ordering this stroller with me going to have a 2 year old when this baby is born … can the bottom seat be rear facing and front racing
You won’t regret it!! Yes bottom and top seats can be both forward and rear facing, and both have a 50 lb weight limit! I just made a direct comparison video between the cybex and uppababy if you want to check it out- will definitely show you all the combinations of seats!
Hi! I really would like to know from you if possibile, how is going and if you think this has been the right choice for two babies of that age 🙏🏻🙏🏻 thank you!
Hi! So overall I am thrilled with my choice. I think my only frustration has been that the seats are sometimes more difficult to click in than those on the uppababy but that is worth it to me. Also, I do sometimes miss the uppababy snack tray but with the cybex I use the Britax snack tray that just clips on so I don’t miss it too much!
@@breakfastwithtiffany8002 Thank you! My babies will be two and a newborn, do you prefer the car baby seat or the stroller carry coat option for the new born?
@@vm.veronicamotto3699 I honestly just used the car seat and then once baby was like 3 months I started putting her in the actual seat. The seats recline super far back so you can put baby in pretty early.
@@breakfastwithtiffany8002 Hello, there is an usable snack tray for the Gazelle S. Its the Cybex Gold Snack Tray.
Does the Britax one click onto the seats? Which model?
Do they have rain covers?
One rain cover is included, yes. You can purchase additional covers
Can you fold the stroller with the car seat adapters installed?
Yes!
3 minutes in and everything you’re saying is me 100%
I’m glad you feel that way!!
After few months (2) of using Cybex, handle started to coming off and company doesn't wanna help us at all, they said it's it not a problem it's OK. So disappointed. I don't know what we gonna do at winter and with 2d baby.
NOT RECOMMEND THIS COMPANY AND STROLLER.
