Our verdict

Unbeatable convenience for year one — plan on a second stroller after.

The original car-seat-stroller: click it out of the base, pop the wheels and go. Brilliant for the first year of errands and flights; outgrown at 30 lb.

Ideal for

City parents, frequent flyers and small cars in the first year.

Skip it if

A one-and-done stroller to use into the toddler years.

In-depth review

What it's like to own

The Doona is an infant car seat with a built-in wheelbase. Unclip it from the LATCH base, pull the handle, and the wheels drop down; your baby never leaves the seat. Nothing else here gets you from car to sidewalk faster, and it's FAA approved, so it doubles as your baby's seat on the plane.

The trade-off is lifespan and storage. It fits babies from 4 to 30 lb and up to 32 in, which most children reach between 12 and 18 months. There's no basket in the standard box, the small wheels don't like gravel or cracked sidewalks, and at 17.2 lb it's heavy to carry as a car seat.

With 15,000+ ratings and 90% five stars, owners overwhelmingly love it for newborn days, travel and small cars. Most families still buy a regular stroller for the toddler years.

The most versatile option for flying: one seat that works in the car, on the plane and as a stroller.

Their second Doona — nothing beats going from car seat to stroller in the early months, and they love the canopy.

Used daily for nine months and still works great, though converting it takes some practice.
