"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"


"we also needed the car seat and with the doona also doubling as a stroller and working so well going into and out of Ubers straight into stroller mode and working just with a seatbelt, it was super helpful for us."


"I honestly loved it and loved not having to take my kid out of the car seat and put them into something else if we were going somewhere."

"I travel a lot for work and like to take baby with me so bought the YoYo and now I don’t use anything else"


"But airlines recognize it instantly and you do not get hassled."

"Easy to run errands. Uber. Nyc. You name it. We are on the go."


"it’s great when you’re popping out quickly to go to a pediatricians office, run an errand, etc. ... it is so so so convenient. ... I dread the day I have to take our baby out of her car seat and put her in a stroller just to go to a store for 10 minutes!"

"Terrible for going on walks etc. ... It’s a pretty rough ride over anything but very smooth pavement ... it can barely handle the grass in my front yard ... it will definitely be a rough go in snow and mud"


"I tried laying on it on the carpet in my apt and it’s so uncomfortable I couldn’t sleep on it unless it was an emergency"


"Sleeping on a Z-Lite was a no-brainer, and I was comfortable on it. Now, I'm tickling the upper limit of the normal weight range, I have to arrange my legs in a certain way to avoid knee pain, have one shoulder prone for a nerve getting pinched, and one elbow that won't go straight."

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


"I’m short and found the doona way too small! ... Lol my husband is 6’3 too and it would have been like pushing around a little doll!"


"everyone also told me how great the doona was, but i also hated that because it's super short and i'm tall."

"hated it. I genuinely don’t get the hype. She also was trying to sell it because of the short usage window"

"I have a doona and I dread the day he outgrows it. ... He is a big boy, so when I say “we” I mean my husband lol"

"it was way too heavy for me to think about lifting pp"


"It’s a clunky thing that would only be useful if you’re traveling a lot ie getting baby in and out of a taxi in a busy city or something. I personally didn’t think it’s practical for day to day use."


"It’s extremely heavy"

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

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

Doona then bugaboo here, found it easier to collapse one handed than the yoyo

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 have a Doona and love it. I was so overwhelmed with stokers and car seats, i’ve pushed that decision further down the road. 🤣

This is what we’ve settled on, plus a Doona because we do a lot of plane travel and it seems convenient for that while they’re still little

We went with the Doona - quite a few of our friends have them and love them.

Like any stroller, everyone needs to weigh the pros and cons against their lifestyle. Where I live, slush isn't an issue (although I have several friends who have loved it in NYC, so who knows - pros and cons!).

Our plan is to just put the base in our car and use the seat belt path in ride shares and on planes.

Oh yes, that's a good thought! We don't anticipate being anywhere but the US and EU for the first year, so Doona should be fine in both, but definitely something to keep in mind.
