And a baby is not supposed to be in a stroller too long.

A good expensive stroller is worth the investment %100. I can't say that same for a car seat.

True, but the Doona is not a stroller. Its an infant car seat that can be wheeled around with a handle

It's literally a stroller that can be folded and placed in the car.

"Transforms from Car Seat to Stroller in seconds"

Hmm, someone should sue them for false advertising.

Good quality long lasting strollers do cost money. Do you know any that don't?

It's a stroller in the sense that it strolls, but it does not allow the child to lay back flat, so it's not a "stroller", it's a wheeled car seat.

Why is it something to judge over? Its not something you feel is worth it to spend more on, thats fine. Some people (like me) think its worth it. Everyone is different

The Doona is a safe alternative to your existing infant 0+ car seat only.

And? It's not a stroller. They made very sure to say that it's an alternative to a car seat ONLY.

My judgment is for the people who HAVE to get a bugaboo and doona because it's the 11th commandment for them. Not because it's safe or convenient or whatever, but because they need to spend money they don't have on a stroller just to be "with it". I guess this is a discussion for another time but the whole culture just irks me.

But they also explicitly call it a stroller on their site.

Actually yeah. Just because a company uses a slogan to draw you in, does not mean its true.

Naked Juice claimed to be healthy. They got sued for false advertising. Yes, they have no "added sugars", but the sugar content is super high anyways. Sure, they're healthy- but only if you are comparing it to, say, mountain dew.

A graco travel system will not be in excellent condition after being used for 6 kids. I bugaboo will. My 12 year old bugaboo is still in real excellent condition. It still pushes amazing. I have a graco travel system for when I travel, you cannot compare the push and quality. The graco is so heavy.

And even if it's convenient. So people are paying $500 for basically a more convenient snap n go, and these are people who for the most part can't afford that. It's no wonder they use it for everything - who can afford a regular stroller after paying that price?

And I'm not so sure it's all that convenient either...it's too low for tall mothers and too heavy for short mothers.
