My item shipped very quickly and I received it about 3 days after I ordered it! It came in an extra protected box as well! Very pleased with my purchase!
Fast delivery
Order arrived in 2 days and looked perfect.
Perfect
Everything arrived exactly as expected.
Quick response
Ordered a gate prior to this one, UPS lost it on route. I reached out to Kidsy via email and they secured a refund from UPS. Was hesitant to order again, but I couldn't find the gate at a more reasonable price. 2nd order arrived with no issues. Gate is sturdy and the dog (Husky) hasn't gotten through it (he's an escape artist). Quick delivery from start to finish.
Quick and easy

Bouncer worked fine
Bouncer worked fine. Was a little worried when it showed up but it was perfectly fine!
Great, trustworthy experience
Great deals, easy checkout with lots of payment options, shipped very quickly, and everything was packed well and looked exactly as it was described! I didn't end up needing any intervention with my shipping experience but appreciate the option to cover lost packages for a minimal fee, especially as we get into the late and lost package holiday season. I'll definitely be getting more of my baby gear from Kidsy.

I appreciated the detailed description
I appreciated the detailed description, I knew I was getting a floor model and it came in perfect shape at a much reduced cost. When I thought the cupholders weren't included, I reached out to them and then we found them and they were very responsive and thankful that I let them know. Everything is fine.

Kidsy Customer Service Review
Kidsy had a great selection of deeply discounted baby gates. Unfortunately, there was a piece missing when I received my package. I didn't realize it until after the 14 day return/exchange window. But I reached out, and they were willing to send me the piece anyway at no extra charge. I really appreciated the customer service.
Very happy
Really happy with my order. Shipped fast and clean.
Love my stroller

Amazing value
Saved a ton on a big item. Thank you, Kidsy!
Reddit Insights
5 threads · r/BabyBumpsCanada, r/Buyingforbaby, r/beyondthebump, r/CPST, r/BuyingforbabyReddit users generally view the UPPAbaby Mesa V2 as a convenient, easy-to-install car seat that integrates seamlessly with UPPAbaby strollers, but note its higher price, weight, and average crash test performance compared to competitors like Nuna and Chicco.
Sentiment is mixed due to appreciation for ease of use and stroller compatibility being offset by concerns about weight, price, and independent crash test results.
Themes
Use Cases
- Primary infant car seat within UPPAbaby travel system
- Convenient transfer between car and stroller without adapters
Watch Out For
Community Q&A
- Is the UPPAbaby Mesa V2 worth the price?
- It depends on your need for seamless stroller compatibility and ease of installation; if those are priorities, many users say yes. Otherwise, lighter and better crash-tested seats exist for less.
- How does the Mesa V2 compare to the Mesa V3?
- The V3 has minor improvements like more headrest positions, a longer canopy, and magnetic buckle holders, but the core seat is essentially the same. The V2 is a good budget option if you don't need the latest features.
- Is the Mesa V2 safe?
- It meets federal safety standards, but independent crash tests show it performs below average compared to some competitors. The lack of a load leg or anti-rebound bar is noted by some CPSTs.
Compared To
vs Nuna Pipa Lite
Nuna Pipa Lite is lighter and often preferred for portability, but lacks seamless UPPAbaby stroller integration, requiring adapters.
vs Chicco KeyFit 30
Chicco KeyFit 30 is lighter, cheaper, and often rated higher in crash tests, but doesn't fit UPPAbaby strollers without adapters.
vs UPPAbaby Aria
Aria is lighter than Mesa V2 but may lack some convenience features; Mesa V2 is heavier but integrates better.
Source Threads
Discussion on differences between UPPAbaby Mesa V2 and alternatives in Canadian market
OP asks about big difference between UPPAbaby Mesa and other seats. User says: 'Mesa is heavy, and crash test results aren't great compared to others like Chicco KeyFit or Nuna Pipa. But installation is super easy and it clicks right into Uppa strollers. If you have a Vista or Cruz, the convenience is hard to beat.' Another user adds: 'We went with the Mesa because of the stroller. Not the best seat but the convenience of not using adapters is worth it for us.'
Comparison between UPPAbaby Mesa V3, Aria V2, and avoiding recommendations
User asks 'Mesa V3 vs Aria V2 vs avoid?' Top comment: 'V3 is basically a V2 with minor tweaks. If you find a V2 on sale, get that. The Aria is lighter but we didn't like the harness. For crash tests, the Mesa isn't great. Nuna Pipa RX or Britax Willow are better ratings but need adapters for Uppa strollers.' Another user: 'We got Mesa V2 and it's been fine. Easy install, straps never twist. Heavy though.' Another: 'The base is so easy to install. I love the green indicator.'
Is UPPAbaby Cruz + Mesa car seat worth it?
OP asks if it's worth the money. Comment: 'I have the Cruz V2 and Mesa in Jake (black). It's a dream to click the car seat in and out of the stroller. The seat itself is heavy, I won't lie. But the stroller push is amazing. If I could do it again, I'd probably get a lighter car seat but I don't regret it.' Another: 'Worth it for the travel system. I love that I don't need an adapter. But if you're not getting the stroller, skip the Mesa.'
Debate on BabyGearLab credibility and UPPAbaby Mesa V3 safety
CPSTs discuss BabyGearLab's testing. User: 'Baby Gear Lab gives Mesa V3 poor crash scores, but it passes FMVSS 213. The lack of load leg and anti-rebound bar are bigger concerns for me. The V2 performed similarly. I wouldn't buy it just because of crash test ratings, but it's not the safest option out there.' Another: 'Installation is top notch, and correct installation matters more for safety than marginal crash test differences.' A third: 'I'd rather buy a seat with a load leg at this price point.'
UPPAbaby Vista stroller with Mesa car seat or Nuna?
OP asks about Vista + Mesa vs Pipa + adapter. Comment: 'Mesa is so easy to install and the no-adapter click is amazing. But it's heavy and my baby outgrew it by 10 months. We bought the Mesa V2 in Jake black.' Another: 'We had the Mesa V2 and sold it. Too heavy. Switched to Nuna Pipa Lite RX with an adapter and it's so much lighter. The adapter is annoying but worth it for the weight difference.' Another user: 'The Mesa works perfectly with the Vista. If you're set on the Uppa ecosystem, get it.'
