The doona does actually have a snap on storage accessory bag, as well as what they call an essentials bag that fits to the handle. It’s basically a diaper and bottle bag. It also has sunshade extensions, insect net, and a 360 protection accessory from both sun and insects. I used this carseat for a year and it was pretty great. Only thing it is missing is the drink holder accessory and ability for the wheels to come off. I chose doona for the wheel feature, as it is hard for me to carry around any carseat due to some handicaps.

@Weatheredstorms1 5 ай бұрын

The doona’s bag is smaller than the evenflo’s storage bag. There are more safety features and accessories add up. Evenflo is so much better for the money and safety of the seat is actually better than the doona which is shocking. It’s great for babies who are premature. The accessories that are extra on the doona are standard on the shyft. With the evenflo I can have the wheels on it or off and it attaches to several different brands of strollers. So I can use it with different configurations and it will grow with my family where as the options are limited with the doona. The safety features that are on the evenflo (alerts etc) is what made me choose the evenflo.

@safeintheseat Жыл бұрын

No car seat should be attached to a cart ever. It's not safe. It's a tipping hazard, the angle is wrong for the baby, and it can break the mechanism that allows the car seat to attach to the car seat base. If you take off the wheels, you can put it in the large basket area.

Thank you for this. The only thing that comes to mind is the rebound bar. What I loved about the Doona was that you could use the Doona while traveling without the heavy base. Since the Dual Ride has the rebound bar in the base, can you utilize the seat without a base without losing any safety features?

@imaclover1428 Жыл бұрын

Yes, you can. The ARB helps to absorb crash forces, but they're definitely not the be-all, end-all if a seat doesn't have one. It's just as safe to use the Evenflo baseless as the Doona so long as you're installing each correctly. - CPST

@mississippimagnolia79 11 ай бұрын

I have the Evenflo Gold and I love it. I chose it over the Doona because of the fact that you could detach the wheels from the car seat and the base has built in wheel covers to keep the dirty wheels off your vehicle seats. The SensorSafe chest clip is a great added feature as well. It connects via Bluetooth to an app in your phone and it notifies you if the temperature is too hot or cold, as well as if you have left your child in the car. The stroller bar was a better fit for me as well. I felt like the Doona bars were too short for me.

In regards to weight you should also realize that you’re not going to carry this seat around. I have the doona and over the past 8 months I have never been in a situation where I needed to carry the seat. The most I carry is getting it in and out of the car or up a couple stairs and when I do that I grab the handle bar and the back of the seat and it’s much easier to handle the weight vs just carrying it with the handle.

These are both the same ease of use on an airplane. Both are narrow so you can often wheel it down the aisle of the plane. If you need to buy a seat right now, only the Doona has extra bases available. Evenflo will in the future (unsure of date), but not right now.

Hi! First time mom here, really struggling with the decision so maybe someone can help me clarify one thing. My understanding is that BOTH seats can be use with and without their base. If this is correct, wouldn’t that mean that when used without it’s base, the Evenflo won’t have anti-rebound capability since that feature is on its base where as the Doona’s anti-rebound is on the seat itself?

@safeintheseat 4 ай бұрын

If you have the DualRide's handle in stroller position in the car, it passes the Canadian's anti-rebound requirements. So, if you are concerned, use that handle position even though the US version allows any locked position since our crash testing does not have that requirement.

Dual ride looks much heavier. What is the weight in full stroller form . And what is weight of the doona in stroller without base

@safeintheseat 11 ай бұрын

The DualRide is a few pounds heavier. The Doona is about 17# and the DualRide is close to 20#

Can the dualrider attach to a different stroller like the uppababy?

@safeintheseat 6 ай бұрын

It can attach to the Evenflo Shyft stroller. It could possibly attach to a stroller that's universal like Mountain Buggy Nano as well.

@emilymiller3751 8 ай бұрын

Wouldn’t the Evenflo be lighter without the wheels attached?

@safeintheseat 8 ай бұрын

Removing the wheels makes it about 9# lighter

What age can this car seat last until? New mom just trying to learn about these things

@safeintheseat Ай бұрын

It depends on the child, as they come in different sizes. But the Doona lasts until 9-12 months usually and the Dualride until 12-15 months. But smaller kids will last longer in both and larger kids may outgrow them sooner.

As far as safety which one’s safety rating is better?

@safeintheseat 11 ай бұрын

Crash test results are not released, so all we know is that both passed the required standards.

Does anyone know if you can attach the even flo dual ride car seat itself (without the wheels) to another stand alone stroller?

@safeintheseat 7 ай бұрын

Without the wheels, you can attach it to the Evenflo Shyft stroller if you can find a used one. Evenflo only sells it as a travel system so it wouldn't make sense to buy that. You can also try to use it in a stroller that works for most car seats like Mountain Buggy Nano.

Do you also need to buy a base for the dual ride ?

A base comes with the DualRide. They do not have extra bases available at this time.

The Doona does not meet Canadian safety standards so even if I could get it in my country I wouldn’t. Scary that it’s being used by so many parents for their precious cargo.

I still think it would be cheaper to buy a car seat stroller with a separate car seat. I’d rather spend $500 on a convertible seat that lasts many years. Side note, evenflo is really trying to stand out in the baby market in recent years. I’ve never been super impressed with their seats (they feel cheap), but this looks nice.

So, the Doona is banned in Canada because the angle of the car seat is not adjustable and considered unsafe. Does the angle of the Dual Ride adjust?

@rachaelhough2107 Жыл бұрын

From the tech videos I’ve seen, no. However it’s not banned in Canada! This specific one. The only difference I believe is the handle can be at 2/3 or 3/4 positions. US is all/ any positions:)
