"It’s hands-down the most convenient, easy-to-use baby item I own. ... I haven’t touched my regular car seat + stroller combo since. The Doona goes *everywhere* with me."

"It’s a stroller! It’s a car seat!"
"It’s excellent for travel to avoid bringing out hefty stroller and so we just check one piece and not a car seat and stroller base."

"bub is 19lbs and growing at 7.5 months so looking for more practicality"
"it is going to be a short-term investment because baby will grow out of it by a year."
"But at 2, he didn't want to be confined to a car seat for the entire flight and he wanted to move around. ... For a 5 hour flight at 2 years old, I would not do it if it were my kid."

"it's not the lightest-weight option"
2621eze 1.0We 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).
2manyteacups 1.0i 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
40lly 1.0I have the Doona and I love it. So convenient to just take the car seat out of the car, press a button and it’s a stroller. No fuss no muss. I also have a Joie Ginger stroller for when I take my baby for walks in the park. It’s worked well for us. I was gifted a a Cybex Libelle travel stroller but haven’t used it yet. Seems cool though.
abizzie12 1.0+1. The Doona is one of few baby items that is worth every penny.
addgh346 1.0Get it! We’re obsessed!
AgentAM 1.0He probably won’t fit in the doona. Infant seats can not rear face, even on a plane. I would bring a cosco seat and use it on the plane. That’s what we did when we took our 18mo to Europe. She did end up being held for sleep but she was in her seat otherwise. Good luck!
ahou08 1.0Pros: Great for errands and everyday getting around Nice for travel (2-in-1 system) without needing both car seat and stroller Easy to use/fold up 2 levels of handlebar placement (I’m 5’3” & my husband is 6’5” - he has to bend a little farther over but it’s not bad) Cons: No storage (we bought the little shell attachment and it works nicely but annoying that you have to buy it separately) Sun shield isn’t great (we also bought the extended shade cover and that works much better… again, another thing you have to purchase separately) Not great with stairs - it is definitely heavy. We didn’t run into as much of an issue with this, though because we don’t go up stairs often with it. Overall, we really love it and it’s been very convenient for our family. It’s definitely not our stroller - we have the uppababy Cruz V3 that we use for more extensive walks/mall outings, etc. But it’s been SO nice for quick errands in and out without having to carry around a car seat. I would and have recommended it to many.
AirportOk8195 1.0We have one, we purchased after the recommendation of our friends that travel frequently. Full disclosure we also have a nuna. If your cool with not having storage it’s convenience factor can’t be beat. Really easy to take in and out. The weight can be an issue, we just practiced putting it in and out of the car before baby.
AliveExample4855 1.0I love it. Best decision ever. Honestly. We bought a different one before and wished we just went with the doona. Now we have the Donna tricycle and love it also.
antigravity-flipflop 1.0It is sooo heavy, I would struggle getting it into the car once the wheels where tucked away, absolutely no place to put anything, no even hang your purse. The only option was to buy and add on to an already expensive item. I liked that the wheels had a 360 swivel. But that’s about it, the shade would also never got low enough to cover my babies eyes from the sun. Do not recommend for the price point.
