Best video on TH-cam for the Doona. Now Doona just needs to make a larger version that can support up to 3 years old.
Thanks so much! Yes that would be amazing!
Why would 3 year olds need to be in a car seat?

@@josiefa5852 why wouldn’t they?
@@josiefa5852 where your 3yo seat huh ?
Thank you for the tips. Very practical and straightforward. I especially liked the advice on collapsing the stroller easily. It always feels like I'm trying to tip my child out of the stroller. Great tip on changing the colour between children. Doona should pay you for promotion😂
If your one the fence... GET THE DOONA!!! I have zero regrets. I cannot express enough how unbelievably convenient it is in so many ways. It is PRICELESS to not have to pack and assemble a separate stroller. It is worth every penny! Who cares how long baby will fit in it, all infant seats or systems have this problem. My boy is huge and will outgrow this thing faster than most and I could care less because it has given me so much convenience in the crucial first 6mos! It is a breeze to bring baby w me and do errands. A great thing is the size this stroller is so compact it is easy to take anywhere!
If I had gotten any other system regardless or cheap or expensive I would have cried and probably caved and still bought the Doona.
I just caved and bought it. My Britax travel system broke me while flying twice. Baby will probably outgrow it sooner than later because he’s pretty big but we will use it until we can’t anymore and hopefully resale for a good amount.
They’re not even an expensive option. Resale is very high…
Pediatrician don’t recommend car rides longer than 90 minutes for newborns because they’ll be in a sitting position; would you say this is a problem to then have the baby sitting for a shopping trip or errand after the car ride?
@@Czarina888777 what would be the difference with a normal car seat that you transfer to a bulky stroller?
@@beautybabylover2246 There wouldn’t be one. Which why I went with the vista v2 which has a bassinet included and will be using the bassinet for after car ride and errands, for the first few months.
The visor actually pulls right off with some force. I found a video from Doona on how to do it. Super easy to do and makes cleaning the whole unit easy and efficient.
Yes! So much easier than we originally thought!
Thanks for demonstrating how to unlock the seat from the base. I was looking all over for a video that showed that part 🙌🏽
Nice video..from a brand new first time dad.. who is looking at the new baby and just threw the two Doona pieces in the back seat this afternoon..ty..
We just bought one yesterday after watching your Doona review. We are loving it so far , thank you for the 10 hacks.
Aww thanks!
Very sturdy in comparison to other strollers that we had. I get a lot of compliments for it. My baby loves being in the bassinet, The th-cam.com/users/postUgkx4qZutfp1y5CaTUcMTuFPbARE5u-8XLiE stroller comfortable. I like the rain cover and the white net that comes with it. I use the rain cover just to cover the car seat when it rains. If your front wheels don't turn well, make sure you lubricate.
I find it helpful putting the breaks on then folding the doona. Great Video!
That’s a smart hack too! Especially if you’re on any kind of incline.
I use the middle handle position for shopping. Keeping my baby close to me as I'm pushing a cart with my other hand. Works every time.
Wow thanks. Was having issues getting my base installed with the tab on the green and this video gave a great tip that wasn’t even in the manual
I am a FTM and this is 101% detailed and Ive learned soooo many information that we could use!! Cant thank you enough x
I thought you meant 'Female To Male' and was so confused on why that would matter in this context😂😂😂
This video is ridiculously helpful. So refreshing. Subscribed!
I love the magnet idea! One of the BEST hacks I've discovered on TH-cam. Thanks so much for sharing that idea!
Yes! By far one of our favs also! It can be so frustrating when the belts fall behind the child.
where do you get that magnet?
Is there a link for the magnets?
Awesome! Thank you for the great tips! 👍🏼
Loved your video! My favorite part was your calculation at the end, I'm fully convinced now. I'm for sure purchasing!!! Definitely using your hacks.
LOL hey it works right ?!? LOL
Thanks so much for this great review! All tips were great and I found tip#10 to be oh so valuable!
Your welcome! Thanks so much for the comments!!
Brilliant every question I had about the Doona you answered. Thank you
Your very welcome!
This video is so helpful. Thanks very much for sharing !!
Our baby will be here in 2 weeks and we have a Doona. Your video was so helpful! I also had no idea that a Doona could be transported in a car without the base! Thanks!
Can I put the stearing in the back so the infant will face forward????????
Thank you for your review!!! I definitely will purchase this stroller.
Great thanks!
New mom here and just saying all these tips are so useful! Thankyou!
New dad here and we just got ours, and you’ve saved me some time. Thanks
Great to hear!
I just purchased one for $39.99 plus $10.00 shipping!an amazing deal I got the blue one!can't wait to use it with my baby boy!
Thanks for the tips!! I always have ready putting any seat protection down for the car seat is unsafe due to it slipping or sliding
Loving all these tips!
K BLee we’re so glad! Thanks for watching and for your comments😊
Really good ideas! I’ve been trying to decide if we really need the Doona instead of a more traditional system but your video really makes me want it! It seems so easy.
We’ve been really pleased with it! Check out our latest video th-cam.com/video/bAx1652O8z8/w-d-xo.html. We’re giving one away!
It is videos like these. That make me just CHERISH this entire era that were in hhhh, I mean, if it wasn't for the internet, I have no idea what I would have done. Thank you sooo much.
2nd that! Best video- you even stood out in the rain to show us ❤
I really enjoyed watching this video! Thank you for all the helpful tips
Just ordered the magnets. Been a mother for just a week and 2 days but definitely saved me from struggling in the future. Thank you!

Watching this amazing video in 2022! Thank you for making this!
Thank you for this video! I just watched it last night and today my husband made a comment on how he wishes we would've gotten a pink Doona for our little girl instead of gray. Thanks to you, we will now have a pink Doona without having to exchange ours 🙌🏼
Awww that’s so great!
Change the Canopy that's it. It's sold separately
Super super helpful! Thank you for this video!
I’m so glad! You’re welcome 😊

Much appreciated!
Great video and instructions! Thank you so much!!
Thank you! You’re welcome ☺️
thank you so much this was very helpful in lots of ways
Naima J.Q you’re so welcome! I’m happy it helps 😀
Another great video.
I just wanted to mention that Doona only allows use of their own accessories with their seat. This means that the only thing that can be under the Doona in the vehicle is their own seat protector. You cannot use a towel, blanket, or any other after market products under the seat.
Also want to give an FYI for the seat protector you used on your driver's seat. Please read vehicle manuals to make sure the vehicle manufacturer allows things to be attached to the head rest. I know it is a super duper light product, most newer vehicles have smart bag sensors & having anything hanging from or contacting the seat can effect how the airbag deploys in a crash.
Lisa C Awesome! Thanks for the great feedback and tips!
Hello dear 👋
Just got my doona today. Love your vidoe

Very helpful video thank you !!
You’re so welcome! Glad you enjoyed it!
Very helping tips
Best review about it I saw 👏🏼
Thanks
Today I had a hard time collapsing the doona for the 1st time. Luckily my Lyft driver helped me out and with a quick YT video I found, we got it sorted. However with this video it provides hacks to save time.
Yeah if the wheels aren’t turned right the collapse can get hung up.
I love the magnet idea! Thanks for this video x
Thank you 👏🏽👏🏽
I have one and it's my favorite baby item I have, no joke. The only downside is I get stopped by so many older men with their jaws dropped to the ground because it converts to a stroller with a push of a button and they had to carry everything when they had little ones. I don't love it for the compliments but it makes me know I have a great purchase. So glad it holds it's value too once I'm done with it. ❤️❤️❤️
That’s awesome! We get comments like that all the time too! “I wish they had that when my kids were little”, “wow back in my day we had to carry everything” 😃
@@thebongers omg exactly!! And I'll get, where do you get one of those? and have to tell them the whole shpeel about put it on a baby registry so that you get 15% off for the completion code 🤣 hope you all are doing ok during the pandemic 🙏 XOXO
Best video 👏👏👏👏and thank you so much 💖💖💖
Thank youuuuuuu !!!!
Very useful video you did thanks...!
Thank you!
You’re the best!
Awww thanks!
Love the magnet idea, just ordered some :) Also the visor comes off easy just by pulling on where it connects no screwdriver needed. Also I had no idea I was supposed to put the seat belt behind the seat so thank you for the info.
Thanks! Yes after we recorded we saw how easy the visor was. Thank you for commenting!
Magnets are not recommended. As a cpst please don't add anything to your car seat
@@LisaCookumothra yeah, parent life is so easy, lets not add the baby to the car seat as well to make you happy!
@@dangleonegmail and when your baby gets ahold of those magnets and chokes ….
Onde comprou?
I got this stroller for my My baby, and let me tell you it is the best!! So sad it’s not lasting him the 2 yes because he is a bigger baby, but I love it no matter what.
Thankd for this video~~!!
Hello dear how are you doing today
Love this video!! We have doona and everything in the video is helpful and 💯💯👌🏻👌🏻
Thank you❤❤❤❤
Thank so much
Your welcome! I hope they help! :)
Thank you so much the back wheels not folding in correctly were driving me nuts 😂 also my wife never told me there was a front release smh
Ooo tip number ten came in clutch… my baby threw up and I didn’t know how to clean it lol…
Ottime spiegazioni.
I love your practical math. I do this with most purchases and it's almost always worth it. $500 may seem pricey but...is it really 🤔 I don't think so😍
Thank you for this video. Now I can leave the hospital 😂
Glad we could help!
Thanks so much! We bought a Doona based on your reco and now love these tips! Noticed that Doona doesn’t offer the replacement canopy for $30 anymore though. Bummer, since we were hoping to get a pink one if we’re blessed with a little girl. Thanks for these and keep up the great content! 🙏
You’re so welcome! We hope you’ll enjoy your doona as much as we have ours! Thanks for the update about the replacement canopy. Congratulations on your little one 😊
It’s just not available for $30 or not available at all?
Raelynn R it’s not available for $30. You can still get the complete fabric set, but it doesn’t include much more and goes for $100. Happy shopping!
KT Do on their site under spare parts they still sell the color swap for $30 but if you want the full fabric swap it’s $100
The Bongers thanks so much for the update! Must’ve been put back up? Let me know if I should delete my comment to eliminate confusion. Thanks for everything!
Brill video!
Thanks! 😃
Love it for all the easy to use reasons.....besides the fact thatbmy baby feels a little uncomfortable in it after 30 mins as there’s not as much cushion in it as our usual pumpkin seat
Mine too
My baby’s back is suddenly too hot and he starts to cry
Thanks dear for this video
You’re so welcome!
This was really helpful and thorough! Thank you!
This videos was amazing, thorough, and a pleasure to watch. This thing looks awesome!! PS: You have the perfect voice for youtube videos! XD
Awww thank you!
Similar to your leg trick when putting down the wheels. I turn the Doona on rhe car seat so that the lever is in my left hand while my right hand takes the handle. Then I pull the seat out and release the wheels as I pull it out so the seat does the job.
Yes! This we definitely have done also especially in a higher vehicle
Thank you so much for this video. What are the benefits of the Doona base since we can buckle the car seat directly? Just wondering as we are expecting Baby #1 and this is all new to us.
The base is probably alt more secure but definitely makes for easier in and out of the car.
i like your video.
I love who you did this video and explained so much . Relieved my mind about when Your not using the base . Thank you . And I can tell your a Woman of God 🙌🏽 same here “A Jesus Only” (Apostolic Faith 😁) I should have said I know you my sister In Christ 💛💛💛 Stay blessed
Aww that’s so much! You are correct!
Thank you!♡
You’re welcome 😊
I love the idea of the magnet, where did you buy it? I love it and I really need it !!! I loved your video, thank you very much
Thanks so much! Check the video description for links :)
