what parents are saying
Used this for both my boys and don’t regret it at all. Sturdy, easy to travel with, easy to clean (now that they changed the release button) and the best customer service from nuna! (Jun 14, 2020)

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.

Its a bit of a 'splurge' but it was SO worth it. Its very easy to clean, looks sleek, and has great functional features. I opted for this over the Pipa Lite because it can be used without the base. Oct 15, 2020

I bought this for my coming newborn. It is by far lighter than the Chicco KeyFit but a lot more expensive. For the weight saving, I think it is worth the extra cost. Oct 14, 2020
This carseat worked okay until my baby was about 3 months and then he rapidly outgrew it. He is 90th percentile for height and weight so once he reached about 3 months old he was just uncomfortable. Oct 04, 2020

My daughter appeared quite comfortable and rarely cried in this seat. Its nice that we were able to travel without lugging around the base like the "lite". The weight of the seat is on the lower end. Sep 13, 2020

A great investment for my little ones. I love how I could use it with a base and also without the base when traveling. In addition, the dream drape is great to block out the sun and covering baby. Mar 04, 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

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.
