Doona Series

I HATE the doona. That thing is so stinking heavy and you can’t even have the wheels down at all times. They also outgrow it way too fast to justify the price. I also dislike some of the Nuna seats too which is a hot take for sure. As a shorty the umbrella ones are good heights for me but they suck to use. Why do they get stuck on a singular leaf?

We have one and primarily used it for travel as it was easier to have just one thing instead of 2. Also it installs without a base which is convenient when we were traveling with rental cars (but more options out these days for that, esp the nunas).

i love my Doona, for my babies first year i had to commute to work with him so it was a real lifesaver. i also used it when i traveled cross country to visit family. i still use it for short trips and if he needs to nap! ours was free from a friend and i cried when my husband brought it home

Best feature outside of the ability to uber home is this. If you have a car and your kid falls asleep on the way to a place, it’s very convenient to be able to pop the stroller out of the car seat base and stroll them to say lunch without risking waking up a napping baby. How much would you pay to have dinner or lunch at a restaurant while your baby naps? How many meals does that have to happen before the stroller pays itself off, especially if you bought it used for like $250?

Good point. I guess the only advantage is that you save trunk space. So it more trunk space vs longer lasting stroller I guess?

I raised my girls with one little umbrella stroller between the two of them! I do love my daughter’s Doona for my granddaughter, though!
