WHAT PREMIUM FEATURES DOES UPPABABY INCLUDE?

A perfect blend of fashion-forward sensibility with sensible and ergonomic design, UPPAbaby strollers are made with quality materials that function as beautifully as they look! From built-in features to optional accessories, UPPAbaby has thought of everything.

All of UPPAbaby's strollers are made with lightweight and durable aluminum frames, from the compact Minu to the convertible Vista series, with sturdy wheels and superior suspension. Each stroller is designed to provide the most convenience and ease of use possible to ensure you are able to focus on your little one, not on how to fold your stroller or where to put your essentials! The premium fabrics come in many fashionable colors and materials that will be easy to clean and stand the test of time.

UPPAbaby groups their accessory options into a few categories: From Birth, Adapters / Expansion, Convenience, and All-Weather. The From Birth solutions include bassinets and infant inserts to use the stroller with a newborn (without attaching an infant car seat), Adapters and Expansion accessories help attach an infant car seat to the stroller, or involve adding a second seat or ride-along board for an older child, Convenience accessories can bring added comfort or convenience for you and your child, and All-Weather accessories help shield your child from the elements! Here are a few popular examples from each of these categories:

WHAT IS UNIQUE ABOUT AN UPPABABY WARRANTY?

UPPAbaby offers a three-year extended warranty for all of their strollers, and all UPPAbaby car seats purchased after January 1, 2019 are covered under a limited lifetime warranty, when registered within three months of purchase from an authorized UPPAbaby retailer like Strolleria! See more details and register your UPPAbaby gear on this page of UPPAbaby's website. This extended warranty can be a great benefit - although warranty claims are rare thanks to UPPAbaby's quality design, it gives peace of mind should something go wrong. A less expensive stroller or car seat may still have a warranty, but these are typically limited and may only last one year, or only cover certain parts of a product.

Another unique feature to UPPAbaby's warranty is related to their travel bags! The TravelSafe program through UPPAbaby extends your existing product warranty to cover damage caused during airtravel, when you're using your UPPAbaby gear and its corresponding TravelSafe travel bag - just make sure both are registered with UPPAbaby before your trip and you are good to go!

IS UPPABABY JPMA and ASTM CERTIFIED?

Yes! Designed in the United States at UPPAbaby's Rockland, Massachusetts headquarters, all of UPPAbaby products are certified by the JPMA (Juvenile Products Manufacturing Association). Additionally, their car seats and strollers meet - and exceed! - ASTM (American Society for Testing and Materials) & JPMA compliance standards, as well as government safety and testing standards.

One question that is occasionally posed when comparing car seat options relates to the use of flame repellant chemicals, as parents look for ways to further protect their children! State and federal safety standards require that all U.S. car seats meet stringent flame retardancy standards, and many manufacturers will treat their fabrics with toxic brominated and chlorinated chemicals in order to meet these requirements; chemicals such as PBBs (brominated biphenyls or polybromobiphenyls) and PBDEs (polybrominated diphenyl ethers) which can be harmful to children. All of UPPAbaby products meet the applicable flame retardancy standards without the use of these potentially harmful chemicals.
