Great suspension? Check. Feature-rich canopy? Check. Aesthetic appeal? Definitely check. I’ve enjoyed using this stroller over the past month or so, and think it’s a great choice, especially in city environments, although it’s equally appealing for suburban families. Though its $900 price may be difficult to swallow, it’s sturdy and beautiful, and comes with accessories like a rain cover, car seat adapter, cup holder, and stroller bag that would add up if purchased separately. Despite the stroller’s large size, the 360-degree wheel swivel makes navigating small spaces a cinch; no longer do I fear getting stuck at the end of a tiny aisle in a bodega.
If you want to use a bassinet attachment for your newborn, however, the $400 Nuna LYTL is pricier than the bassinets compatible with other strollers, such as the $200 Uppababy bassinet or the $150 Britax Zinnia bassinet. But snapping a compatible car seat into the stroller frame is perfectly acceptable for your littlest littles. Consumer Reports’ testers recommend the Nuna Pipa Aire RX infant car seat, which is one of the Nuna infant car seats that’s compatible with the Swiv.
