So light, so portable. Baby loved it, and the reviews are great! (Nov 07, 2018)

The Nuna Pipa base feels more secure than your typical car seat base thanks to the steel stability leg and using the LATCH installation is essentially mistake-proof. It's also great for taxis because it installs well without its base, too. As a European-made seat, the high safety standards give you excellent peace of mind and the sleek, modern design is easy on the eyes. The Dream Drape, a built-in extendable cover, cuts down on the clutter you’ll have to carry and zips away in the sun shade when not in use. It’s very lightweight (7.7 lbs) and a breeze to get in and out of the car.
The Catch: The magnets on the Dream Drape aren’t that strong and they come undone very easily.

I love how light this car seat is. It’s extremely easy to take in and out of the base, click into the MIXX stroller and carry. The base gives such a sense of extra security with the stability leg also Aug 05, 2020

We love our Pipa car seat! The fact that it is one of the lightest and safest on the market was a major selling point. We could tote this around without feeling like we were carrying a bag of bricks. Mar 18, 2020

I love this car seat. It is so light weight and easy to get baby in and out of. The load leg and LATCH connections make baby safe. The dream drape is nice, but it needs something stronger than magnets Oct 26, 2017
- Sara G.

We purchased the Pipa for baby #2. Nuna is the ultimate for safety & has great features like the dream drape & nice fabric cushioning. Easy to install with LATCH and simple to clean. It's worth it! Oct 12, 2017

- Chelsea R.

When our old infant seat got damaged in one of our moves, we decided to give this one a try. It seems to be more roomy and more cushioned. It's perfect for our son who is on the larger side! Oct 21, 2016

This is a great car seat! My baby loves this and it seems very comfortable for her. It has a nice extended sunshade. It also has a stability leg which makes it more safe when driving. Oct 06, 2016
While the base installs easily (usually) & securely (always) with LATCH, a seat-belt base installation often fails to yield the secure fit needed as the seat belt locking device isn’t well-aligned with the seat belts in many cars. We like the load leg on the base, which helps reduce risk of head injury, but the base’s wide footprint + sub-optimally positioned seat belt locking device precludes installation in the center seat of many cars.
