Maxi-Cosi - Leona

My Maxi-Cosi Leona has been a work horse on nearly 20 international flights +taxis/ubers in this past year. Before baby was 8 months, we used it with the bucket car seat which made folding it really small very convenient. I got the whole system with the Oria bassinet because I thought my baby could sleep in it on walks during the newborn phase but bb quickly outgrew the weight limit.  I got third party sun shades, mosquito, and rain covers for extra protection especially when we went to tropical places. Baby (10mos) now hates the rain cover so we got an umbrella attachment which is great for sun and rain. Everything all in from Amazon warehouse deals, Facebook marketplace (car seat, base, and Oria bassinet), and SHEIN for the third party accessories was less than $800 incl taxes. That said, my tiny condo is really, really tiny (less than 500sq ft) and I loved the small footprint because we never really ended up folding it away since we used it daily. 

Pour avoir investi dans une trio... Bah ça ne nous a jamais servi ! Ma petite était constamment en écharpe/aux bras et ne supportait pas d'être posée. Donc la poussette on s'en est servi peut-être une dizaine de fois. Par contre on a pris un modèle bien compact de chez maxi cosy quand elle a eu 8mois. Elle a trois ans, et même si on s'en sert moins parce qu'elle marche bien ou préfère les épaules, elle est toujours au top. Peut-être plutôt investir dans un bon porte bébé, c'est une bonne idée. J'étais très très fan des mei tai de love and carry, mais il en existe des tonnes. Et prenez de l'occasion, on en trouve plein. Et ma petite fait 12kg à 3ans, si ça peut aider. Elle est un peu sous la moyenne.

I don't understand the appeal of the Doona, it looks like the worst of both worlds between a car seat and an infant stroller. Unless you are going to be Ubering regularly I wouldn't get this. The Maxi Cosi lie flat thing is not for newborns; for newborns, you're supposed to use the car seat with that particular stroller. Just because it can lie flat doesn't mean it is appropriate for newborn use. The Vista either requires a bassinet or the Infant SnugSeat to use with newborns. The Vista is a great stroller but it is large; it's a good stroller if you are going to be out all day but not the best for navigating the subway with. If you think you will be riding the subway a lot, I would look at a travel-style stroller like the Babyzen Yoyo. They are smaller and lighter and will be easier to get up and down stairs and navigate through crowds. There's also the carrier options in lieu of a stroller. If you are going to be walking outside more, you could consider a larger stroller like the Vista.
