Doona X

For parents who want a car seat and stroller for life on the go, the Doona X is perfect. You can effortlessly transition from car seat mode to stroller mode in seconds. Plus with a Soft Release System, Doona has created the smoothest transition for your little one, to minimise any disturbance.

Suitable from newborn, the Doona X has 3-recline positions including an option to lie flat. Alongside this, the easy-fastening shoulder pads will make putting your baby into the car seat much simpler. Once in stroller mode, you and your little one can enjoy a smooth ride with high durability wheels and a Shock Absorbent Mechanism.

A priority for all parents is of course safety, and the Doona X does not disappoint. It adheres to the latest R129 car seat regulations and has been tested to meet the strictest safety standards for car seats, strollers and cradles.

In addition, it features a five-point harness, adjustable headrest and infant insert. Plus the Doona X also comes with the Doona SIP (Side Impact Protection) add-on which offers extra protection for your baby by absorbing energy in case of a side collision. We also love the hardshell back pack which doubles as under stroller storage and can sit under the stroller without any fiddly clips.
