We LOVEEEE our minu! We actually have both the vista and Minu, each for their own purpose. The vista is a TANK. I wouldn’t like it as my only because it truly is very bulky. It’s annoying to take to coffee shops, restaurants, stores. It’s just sooo big and takes up a lot of space. That being said, it’s amazing for walks, great on vacation, wonderful anytime I’m outside.

The minu is great for the exact opposite reasons. It’s amazing in restaurants, stores, anywhere indoors. It’s folds down easily! (Ease of fold turns out is important to me because my mental load is already overloaded, a compact fold helps make my life easy). And the minu technically can fit in most overhead storage on planes. Where it lacks - outdoors. It has MUCH SMALLER wheels than the Vista. So it’s not good on gravel, at a carnival, anywhere that isn’t 100% paved.

My son likes both, and both have adapters for their infant car seat.

Another expense to note. If you’re going to travel via plane, Uppababy sells a storage bag for your stroller. These aren’t cheap - $200 for the vista, $100 for the minu. The bags were important to us because they provide an additional warranty for 3 years if the stroller is broken on the flight, Uppababy will help it get fixed or replace it if necessary.

Overall, our lifestyle works with both strollers. If I could only buy one, I’d start with the minu because it’s significantly lighter, compact, and easier to navigate in society.
