I was very excited to see the 2011 model, as we love the 2010 model. Here are the comparison:
Pros:
increased weight limit,
higher backrest,
longer and adjustable footrest,
multi-level safety belt.
The weight limit of 2011 is increased to 55lbs. Overall structure is pretty much the same as the old one. Major improvements are made in seat material. Thicker padding, higher backrest plus longer and adjustable footrest. The old model has mesh type material which I am not particularly fond of... And the safety belts has three different shoulder levels, compared to none in the old model. (I haven't compared the belts' length though.) I suppose it can probably last longer, as it claimed. And I love the new color.
Cons:
cannot stand by itself!!!
But surprisingly, it cannot stand by itself once I assembled the front wheels. It seems to be a design flaw. I guess it's because the longer footrest which puts more weight outside...Read more

I got the Uppa Baby Vista as a gift for my baby shower and we absolutely loved it. The quality and craftsmanship of the stroller was excellent. I bought this stroller in good faith because we really believed in the Uppa Baby brand. It is unfortunate but I have to say that this stroller is HORRIBLE.
1. The seat design is completely flawed. The five point harness straps are EXTREMELY SHORT. The bottom strap that goes in between the legs is so short it is right at my son's crotch. I can barely get it closed the straps are so tight and so awkward to use. My son is only 21 months old and he barely fits in the seat. The seat is also extremely shallow...it looks like he is about to fall out. The red seat pad is held on by Velcro to the white backing and it comes unstuck the red seat pad starts to slide and it looks like my son is sliding out of the stroller. The whole seat of the stroller is just completely awkward. My son just looks really uncomfortable in it...Read more

I love this stroller. It is convenient for me because it is lightweight, easy to recline or sit up, quick and easy to fold and unfold and doesn't take up too much room (fits in my truck or leaves a ton or room in the trunk of the car). The best features for my babe are that it provides a massive amount of sun shade coverage and it reclines way back. It works great and my baby loves being in it!
