"I am a C-section mama and without the doona I could not have been able to do stuff."
"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 bought one for a trip across the country, have used it on the plane and in the cars here. ... it’s perfect for the airport. ... I might have felt more compelled to travel earlier."

"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."

"Coming from the Razer viper ultimate at around 74 grams to the X2 Crazylight at 35 is a surreal experience, the mouse is basically as light as a feather to pick up and move it almost seems like it's not even there. ... As a fingertip grip user the feel of using a mouse this light is bar none, it makes it so much easier to pick up and re adjust and just moving it around with your wrist in fine movements it feels much more accurate and controllable."
"After the third run of another 15 miles a few days ago, I was sold and grinning from ear-to-ear afterwards. It's light, fast and propulsive, responsive, stable, nimble, grippy, comfortable, and protective. It pretty much does it all in a very lightweight package."
"it weighs under 350g"

"Also getting the matching Nuna TRVL stroller with the one handed open/close that doesn’t require any additional pieces for that car seat to click into it was a game changer for travel when kiddo was an infant."
"it works with the stroller base (Nuna turtle - 250$), it can be clipped in any car with the seat belts and on arrival attached to the stroller - so the bassinet doesn’t have to be carried too."
"I just click that into the stroller for walks then I switch it out with the car seat to go somewhere. ... The infant car seat has since expired so I sprung for a new Nuna so it would fit with the whole system."

"Me too. And I use Apple Airpods. $$$$$"
"$179 is pretty nuts. ... As long as people keep buying them and paying the esports tax, they're gonna keep selling them at this crazy price. ... The G305 feels really similar, but at 1/3 the price. ... I don't truely understand why the G pro light is all the rage. ... I used a G pro for a week, and while it did feel very smooth and responsive, I also had a G305 that felt very similar."
"overpriced and don't ever prove the price difference in sound over the az100."

"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."

"The mix is heavy, bulky, and doesn't fold/unfold easily."

"wish we ’d just bought a compatible UppaBaby car seat (to deal with less converters and components)."
DamePants 0.6Nuna strollers and car seats with specifically the merino lining. The lightest version of the Pipa that had a reflex clip in base and could be used without the base. Things that we got after attempting alternatives because we love traveling: A dedicated travel stroller that fits in the overhead of airplanes. Cybex libelle. The travel bag for the nuna pipa car seat. The seat is light and so it’s a good item have as a backpack. You can also jam a load of diapers in the space saving previous suitcase space. Baby Bjorn Travel Crib. It’s so light and easy to set up. Gave us much more options for locations we could stay.
Crow_Whisperer 0.4What about Nunas? We had the pipa lite and you don't need the base if you were to take it into another car. It used the seatbelt to strap it in. I also have a used uppababay that sold locks that made the nuna fit into the stroller. So idk i havent looked in a while but maybe they make a bigger version?
greenwichgirl90s 0.4We got the nuna mixx travel system, the Pipa Lite seat clicks into the stroller if you need it for quick trips into the shop when baby sleeps, but it's very highly rated for safety and both of our babies have enjoyed sitting/sleeping in it.
Inside_Hand_7644 0.4Night nurse and/or postpartum overnight doula. Few nights a week for however many weeks you can comfortably afford. Worth. Every. Penny. As for goods: Thule jogging stroller has been fantastic for us, though we walk frequently and on subpar roads/trails. We went with the Nuna Pipa Lite car seat and liked it, but have the UppaBaby Vista 2 as our stroller chassis and wish we’d just bought a compatible UppaBaby car seat (to deal with less converters and components). A good, breathable crib mattress is a must. We’ve liked the Newton. Lastly, the Baby Brezza is a game changer if you formula feed at all. The rest we’ve gotten a ton of mileage out of gently used and secondhand: clothes, toys, accessories, etc.
Nike_ofSamothrace 0.4This was me! I had a Pipa Lite and a Mixx and was very happy with them, no bassinet needed. I will say that I wish I had gone for a regular Pipa instead of Lite - the lite doesnt have the full sunshade, which I wanted, and it cannot be used without a base. Things to consider!
NurseK89 0.4This was >6 years ago, so take it for what it is. We had the Pipa Lite, our cousin had the KeyFit. When we flew to go visit, we borrowed it bc by this time her cousin was in a convertible. The KeyFit was HEAVY compared to the Pipa. Made us miss our Pipa sooo much
Person79538 0.2The lighter Nuna car seat was absolutely worth it for me as a petite woman. Also getting the matching Nuna TRVL stroller with the one handed open/close that doesn’t require any additional pieces for that car seat to click into it was a game changer for travel when kiddo was an infant. We also have the Nuna Rava now which is extraordinarily comfy. Feel bad when we travel and we put the kid in a cheaper car seat that’s more portable. The difference is incredibly noticeable. The Tripp Trapp we also love with the various attachments for each stage of life. If my next kid is not a good sleeper, I’ll rent the snoo. Didn’t need it with my first. ETA: Again for travel, the Guava Lotus and Slumperpod are also amazing to have. Plus the No Reception Club carry-on and diaper bags.
BLNKCHK 0.1I 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.
number1wifey 0.1I have a Nina pipa and a 360 seat in my husbands car and I Love the 360 so much more. The Nuna is technically “nicer” but it’s so much more work.
porklegoguy12345 0.1I have two car seats in the back - Nuna Rava and Pipa. There is still some space but the middle seat is purely a cup holder. We use a travel stroller (Yoyo) and it fits in the trunk easily. Not the best family car but a great daily driver with or without the kids.
