"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"

"When I was done with it I was able to quickly sell it and got $550 back. ... 3 years of everyday use and I was able to sell my Mixx stroller for over $500 when I was done with it."


"The benefit we see in the Nuna is that it has a great resale value on Facebook in our area. ... We figured if we end up needing a double in the future, we can potentially sell this one and get a different one."


"But, I think I paid close to 600$ on a black Friday deal back then, so it's good to see that I can get my money back if my tent needs change."

"our 99th percentile baby grew out of it around 12-13mo. ... I am SO sad that we can no longer use it."


"This price tag for something that only lasts *maybe* a year is a dealbreaker for me."


"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."

"If you have wild kids or go over not perfectly smooth sidewalks, it's not great."


"The minu is basically a janky doll stroller in comparison lol. ... I can take the vista across gravel or grass with no issue. The minu is so uncomfortable for my kid and the steering is so stiff and the wheels are tiny. I never use it and wish I hadn’t ever bought it honestly!"


"Walking around, we hit an uneven bit of pavement and it would have tipped over if I hadn’t had a good grip on it."

"Way too heavy. ... Trust me and my 22 pound baby you do not wanna"


"the Doona is sooooo heavy! ... I can barely carry it, I need my husband to do it every time lol."


"No, that thing is a monster. Add a kid, and you have like 40 lbs to carry with one arm twisted."

"We loathed the Doona (my husband is 6’5)"


"Also if you are tallish (I'm 5'8") it is uncomfortably short to push."


"We are not tall people, but the Doona was way too short for myself (5’6”) and my husband (5’10”)."

"it just has this one short little loop and can't be carried as a bag hands-free. Also, it doesn't store much, so we always needed a regular diaper bag anyway if we were leaving the house for any longer than a few hours. It made me so mad and I regretted purchasing it."


"it’s dated and have issues with dwarf 16MB storage. Super cheapskate and shortsighted move by MikroTik on this and several other models. ... The issue is that after installing wifi qcom-ac package. Using netinstall method because there is not enough storage to do it traditional way. There remains literally only 1% of free storage left , around 300KB. Uncomfortable, very on the edge. When/if this drops to 0KB, the router will brick itself and require netinstall, that’s guaranteed. ... Yeah 16MB should be enough for everyone. 2018’s facepalm edition."

we find it super convenient, it’s easier for us to load the baby outside the car, and then move the entire seat inside. Makes it great for doctors appointments. That being said, I don’t see it as a replacement for an actual stroller. It’s great for what we need to get from car to location, but we prefer an actual stroller for longer walks

If you can find it on marketplace, buy it. Especially if your travel a lot, or live in an urban area where you walk more than you drive. I couldn’t justify new, but goddamn that thing is useful.

The Doona is expensive, but I absolutely adore mine. The turn radius is AMAZING imo.

I have a Doona that I use for right now and I used it on a recent trip with my baby, I wore him in the airports and out and about and threw my bag into the stroller. when I was with my parents I just left it in the car

I absolutely love our Doona for car travels. I take Uber pretty frequently and it’s just so easy for in and outs. I also traveled across the country and it was sooo handy in the airport! I found it heavy in the very beginning but I actually think I’ve gotten stronger since then because it’s easier for me to lift now. we were lucky enough to get ours for free so that is also a plus; we could never have afforded it with the hefty price tag

Yeah I agree with this. I nanny and it’s just popular with people. I don’t really like it (and will usually choose a long lasting convertible over a bucket seat regardless), but it’s very popular.

I use a second hand doona which is good for infants as it folds into a car seat. Got it for $100

I loved it for traveling. Also amazed a couple pilots when I was collapsing it at the gate for them to check. It was perfect because my trip involved car rentals, car shares and flying. That said it is pricey so if you could borrow one for travel that would be the way. It’s my every day stroller though.
