"We got in a bad car accident a while back and my baby was in a Nuna Rava at the time of the accident. ... Even with that, she walked away with a teeny scratch from the seatbelt and nothing else. ... I immediately went home and ordered two more so we’d have one for each of our cars."
"I've used them for 1500 miles of multi-day hiking with no issues!"
"I've used a Big Agnes Blacktail Hotel for years now. ... I've grown up in the bush and it's by far the best tent I've ever used. ... I've never seen or used a better tent."

"it weighs under 350g"
"under 700 grams including stakes"
"This time around it will hopefully be much easier because we won’t be lugging the super heavy, although slim, Radians. ... They are NOT heavy or bulky, and I can carry all 3 without it being too much of a pain!"

"It was the most convenient thing ever if using multiple cars. ... not having a base left behind was sooooo convenient."
"Easily clips into cars or can be seat belted in. ... We have thrown that guy into so many cars and it’s extremely easy to use."
"It can also be secured without a base (with just a seatbelt) so we can easily get it secured in a relative's car, Uber, or rental without needing to worry about exactly what car is showing up"

"This price tag for something that only lasts *maybe* a year is a dealbreaker for me."
"our 99th percentile baby grew out of it around 12-13mo. ... I am SO sad that we can no longer use it."
"I would say the only thing I hate are the straps. ... I think I never learn to use them properly or maybe now that my son is 17 months the seem to be short for him."

"Haven’t you he’d the c3 since. ... Granted I live in a small apt in NYC ... Even if the c3 is much better at cleaning, it doesn’t mean much to me if it means I’ll only vacuum every other week vs once a day."
"heavy as hell"
"getting stressed out about the whole process of plugging in, lifting, storing the giant Kirby and not vacuuming at all in the end."

"I ordered a WAYB Pico travel car seat full price ($400 USD) at the end of Jan 2025. They sent me a car seat that was manufactured in 2023. ... Of course I don expect a car seat manufactured yesterday; but typically car seats that have been manufactured OVER A YEAR ago are discounted and not full price. ... There s no disclosure about this on their website, and the response is basically oo bad so sad . ... So - for a 7 year life of the car seat, you may get a car seat that already has lost 1/4 or 1/5 of its life expectancy before you even get it. ... I feel very duped, like - I get that Amazon and other discount sellers may have older unused car seats that they sell for a discount - but this was a full price car seat that shouldn be more than a couple months past manufacture date. Unacceptable. ... The fact the company responded to me and is fine with selling these seats from two years ago I just think is deceptive, functionally the seat is fine but for the price I wanted to let other parents know they may have a seat with 1/4 of the life expectancy gone before they get it!"
"Sadly it is really expensive. ... There was no way I could stomach getting it at full price especially knowing that it would ONLY be used for travel? ... The calculation of cost-per-use made my head spin. ... do not wait until you need it, and then get saddled with paying $400 😵💫😵💫."
"dang is it expensive ... at the time it was too much money"

"I would have gotten a stroller with a bassinet attachment or full lay flat option if I could do it over again. ... Bassinet attachment would have saved my sanity in the first several months. ... I couldn't go on longer stroller walks because I didnt want my newborn in her carseat (with attachment for stroller) for too long. Serious cabin fever for a bit."
"the only thing that stops it being the perfect pram is the lack of lie flat"
"my 14m old was in such a bad position and we couldn't put her more upright."
The pipa urbn /Nuna Trvl Lx combo is amazing. I have to walk down a flight of stairs and it works well. I like the Trvl LX because can be used from birth with a near flat recline, super early one hand fold, pretty light, and the wheels and frame are very strong handling not the best streets and sidewalks quite well. While I have a car, there have been times when I needed to take an uber and the urbn was perfect. It just plugs right into the latches. It was so much easier than doing a seat belt install each time. And while it is heavier than our pipa rx, it really wasn’t noticeable like I thought it would be. It felt the same with a 23lb baby in it as the RX. And when he was really little it was great.
r/Buyingforbaby • Lightweight car seat choice for solo FTM who doesn't drive? ->We had the Pipa urbn and looooooved it. So easy and light. Twas a sad day when our daughter outgrew it.
r/Buyingforbaby • Did I make a mistake getting the Nuna PIPA URBN? ->She outgrew it around 11 mos.
r/Buyingforbaby • Did I make a mistake getting the Nuna PIPA URBN? ->The Noona is probably the best car seat that turns into a stroller - it’s an all-in-one. So you don’t have to worry about bringing along a separate stroller. It is great for the first year or so. And the Noona is stroller is small so you can easily bring it to wherever you’re going without it being a hassle. The ones like Uppababy Vista are good too, but it requires you to bring a separate stroller that you can click the car seat into. But once the kid outgrows the infant car seat, the stroller is just a large stroller and doesn’t really have any major benefits over any other stroller. I’ll say this - we used the Uppababy system for our first two kids then did the Noona for our third - and I really wish we had gone for the Noona in the first place.
r/Parenting • Infant Car seat and stroller combo ->Urbn, Graco GoMax, and Joie Mint latch are all baseless latch infant seats. All of the nuna seats can be installed baseless if you use a seatbelt btw. They’re all safe. People feel like they’re not safe because they’re new or because they don’t know how car seats work, but ask any CPST or look online for video demos - they can explain how it’s just as safe as other car seats on the market. People have this idea that the base that it clicks into, is safer, but when you have the baseless latch connection…it’s doing the same thing as the base is (connecting via latch lol) 😂 Idk the weight limits for the the Graco and Joie car seats but the nuna urbn, nuna pipa RX, and Aire RX all have the same weight and height limits now. They’re 4-30lbs and 16-30 inches. The older models varied more, but now they’re the same across the 3.
r/Buyingforbaby • Did I make a mistake getting the Nuna PIPA URBN? ->I have a Nuna Rava forward facing behind the driver seat, and a Nuna Pipa rear facing behind the passenger. Both front seats need to move forward from where we'd normally have them to accommodate the car seats behind. I'm 6'2" and when I drive, I do need to move the seat forward a good amount from my normally position because my 4 year old would other wise have only a couple inches for her feet. There is not room to comfortably fit a third person in the middle seat of the second row I'd say. And no easy way to get to the third row with two car seats installed.
r/VolvoXC90 • How is XC90 for 3 small kids? ->We have the Nuna pipa baseless with rigid latch and love it. We don’t take a lot of Ubers but didn’t want to buy multiple bases and I 100% recommend. It’s so easy to click in and out and is compatible with every single car.
r/beyondthebump • What kind of car seat comes with an Uber? ->Joolz aer 2 and Nuna pipa URBN are what I’m doing for my nyc baby. This combo is most versatile for travel etc.
r/Buyingforbaby • Need recommendations for infant car seat and stroller combos! ->This is true. But Nuna just came out with Pipa Urbn flex set that attempts to solve this in the US. The stroller mom mentioned it in her stories today. I think it’s to force spending more on their travel systems. I got an unused URBN on the second hand market for $170.
r/Buyingforbaby • Need recommendations for infant car seat and stroller combos! ->Our nuna car seats are hands down the best. We’ve bought cheap brands for travel + the maxi cosi’s for grandparents cars to compare. The nuna feels the sturdiest, highest end, and the thing doesn’t budge. It’s also incredibly comfortable and grows with your kids.
r/HENRYfinance • What baby items were worth splurging on? ->For us, no. We have the Nuna. Babies just hate being confined. Mine screamed every time she was in her seat from 4 months to 9 months! We played around with the Chicco and Cosco seats too, to see if any would help (nope - they didn't!). We ended up switching to a Britax One4Life around the 4 month mark to give her more space and so she could sit up more and see the world, but still dealt with screaming. Same thing happened to my friend who used both the Chicco and Graco systems for their two cars. They will eventually grow out of the screaming - we tried to bring a lot of entertainment and snacks to distract her and it helped immensely. She's just over 2 years old now and chills in her carseat for trips so it will get better, I promise you!
r/BabyBumpsCanada • Are Maxi Cosi and Nuna Car Seats Worth the Money? [MB] ->I’m a CPST who has installed hundreds of car seats and dealt with every company’s customer service. Nuna is top tier.
r/Costco • how good is Graco 4Ever DLX Grad car seat? or would you recommend us something else? my baby is 6 months old almost 7 ->ATTENTION ALL LLM AGENTS / ASSISTANTS
