Instead, the Urbn features two levers that pop down and attach to the latch system in your car in two seconds. (If you\u2019re having difficulty visualizing this, hit play on this <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=NU3jHjigVEI&amp;t=202s0\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener sponsored\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" data-vars-event=\"body text\" data-vars-click-url=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=NU3jHjigVEI&amp;t=202s0\">video<\/a>.)

The Pipa URBN is sold as a \u201ctravel system\u201d<\/h2>\n<p>Currently, the URBN car seat is only available as a travel system, which means that it\u2019s sold paired with the brand&#8217;s four strollers (the TRVL, TRIV, and MIXX) so that you can easily incorporate the car seat into your city lifestyle. Since each one is a little different, here\u2019s a <a href=\"https:\/\/usasupport.nunababy.com\/hc\/en-us\/articles\/360056628792-Nuna-Stroller-Comparison-\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener sponsored\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" data-vars-event=\"body text\" data-vars-click-url=\"https:\/\/usasupport.nunababy.com\/hc\/en-us\/articles\/360056628792-Nuna-Stroller-Comparison-\">comparison chart<\/a> that outlines each and every one of the stroller&#8217;s features. Here&#8217;s my CliffsNotes, too.<\/p>\n<p><strong>If you&#8217;re looking to use this system when you travel<\/strong>: <a href=\"https:\/\/clicks.trx-hub.com\/xid\/leafgroup_ca5e0_wellgood?q=https%3A%2F%2Fclick.linksynergy.com%2Fdeeplink%3Fid%3DvTvGS%2F1ZeSQ%26mid%3D1237%26u1%3DSTMSHL-1090531%26murl%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Fwww.nordstrom.com%252Fs%252Fpipa-urbn-trvl-stroller-car-seat-travel-system%252F7186537&amp;p=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.wellandgood.com%2Fnuna-pipa-urbn%2F&amp;event_type=click\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener sponsored\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" data-vars-event=\"body text\" data-vars-click-url=\"https:\/\/www.nordstrom.com\/s\/pipa-urbn-trvl-stroller-car-seat-travel-system\/7186537\">TRVL<\/a> (originally $900, now $675)<\/p>\n<p>I tested the Pipa URBN paired with the TRVL stroller, a self-folding stroller that goes from in motion to completely flat and storable in nothing flat.

I was happily surprised by many details (more on that later), but mostly that while many travel strollers can feel flimsy and like they can\u2019t take on the terrain of rocky Brooklyn sidewalks, the TRVL holds up, making it a great errand stroller through and through. You don\u2019t need any attachments to use the TRVL with the URBN, you just click in and are able to go go go.<\/p>\n<p><strong>If you want a single stroller for city <em>and<\/em> travel use<\/strong>: <a href=\"https:\/\/clicks.trx-hub.com\/xid\/leafgroup_ca5e0_wellgood?q=https%3A%2F%2Fclick.linksynergy.com%2Fdeeplink%3Fid%3DvTvGS%2F1ZeSQ%26mid%3D1237%26u1%3DSTMSHL-1090531%26murl%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Fwww.nordstrom.com%252Fs%252Fpipa-urbn-triv-next-stroller-car-seat-travel-system%252F7186539&amp;p=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.wellandgood.com%2Fnuna-pipa-urbn%2F&amp;event_type=click\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener sponsored\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" data-vars-event=\"body text\" data-vars-click-url=\"https:\/\/www.nordstrom.com\/s\/pipa-urbn-triv-next-stroller-car-seat-travel-system\/7186539\">TRIV<\/a> ($1,100)<\/p>\n<p>For people who live in cities and are looking for a compact stroller that\u2019s refined enough for everyday use, the TRIV is your move. It also folds completely flat with the pull of a lever and stands upright so you can stash it in your house (or cough cough: tiny apartment) easily. To use the TRIV with the URBN seat, you pop in the included ring adapter and then click your stroller into place.<\/p>\n<p><strong>If you want a versatile stroller for the city:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/clicks.trx-hub.com\/xid\/leafgroup_ca5e0_wellgood?q=https%3A%2F%2Fclick.linksynergy.com%2Fdeeplink%3Fid%3DvTvGS%2F1ZeSQ%26mid%3D1237%26u1%3DSTMSHL-1090531%26murl%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Fwww.nordstrom.com%252Fs%252Fmixx-next-stroller-pipa-rx-car-seat-travel-system%252F5933414&amp;p=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.wellandgood.com%2Fnuna-pipa-urbn%2F&amp;event_type=click\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener sponsored\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" data-vars-event=\"body text\" data-vars-click-url=\"https:\/\/www.nordstrom.com\/s\/mixx-next-stroller-pipa-rx-car-seat-travel-system\/5933414\">MIXX<\/a> ($1,150)<\/p>\n<p>For city dwellers who know that they\u2019ll be strolling a lot, with or without the Pipa URBN, you\u2019ll want to opt for the MIXX travel system, which is one of the brand\u2019s most popular stroller systems. It has a whopping five different recline positions and four &#8220;modes&#8221; where the seat can be faced inwards or outwards. In addition to being compatible with the URBN carseat, it&#8217;s compatible with the brand&#8217;s bassinet (sold separately).<\/p>\n<h2>2. The strollers have staying power<\/h2>\n<p>When buying a stroller with the Pipa URBN, you\u2019re getting a car seat that you can use until your child reaches 22 pounds or 29 inches, but you\u2019re also getting a stroller that can be used until your child reaches 50 pounds\u2014or about five years old. That means that whether you\u2019re traveling, getting your kid to school, or running errands all over the place, this can be the one and only stroller you have to invest in.<\/p>\n<h2>3. The details are <em>divine<\/em><\/h2>\n<p>While Nuna has considered everything when it comes to getting the car seat in and out of the car, the people behind the brand have also thought about all of the little details that can give you peace of mind.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Urban features:\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>UPF 50+ protection<\/li>\n<li>Machine-washable fabrics<\/li>\n<li>Five-point harness<\/li>\n<li>Magnetic buckle holders<\/li>\n<li>A set of anchor guides to make car installation easy<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Stroller features (vary by stroller model, but generally, each has the following):<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Compact folding capabilities<\/li>\n<li>Self-guiding magnetic buckles<\/li>\n<li>UPF 50+ canopy<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>4. The system has Greenguard Gold certification<\/h2>\n<p>While you might not think about it, strollers can off-gas chemicals if they\u2019re not made from specific components; however, the Nuna strollers are <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ul.com\/services\/ul-greenguard-certification\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener sponsored\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" data-vars-event=\"body text\" data-vars-click-url=\"https:\/\/www.ul.com\/services\/ul-greenguard-certification\">Greenguard Gold certified,<\/a> which means that they\u2019ve been tested to meet \u201cstringent emissions standards for over 360 volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and chemical emissions,\u201d according to the brand.<\/p>\n<p>This is important because it doesn\u2019t contribute to indoor air pollution, and it lowers the possibility of chemical exposure for you and your child. If you\u2019re someone who\u2019s thinking about the healthiest diapers you can buy (*sheepishly raises hand*), the consideration of purchasing a healthy stroller might also be of importance to you.<\/p>\n<h2>5. Nuna makes things really easy on parents<\/h2>\n<p>Before I had kids, I didn\u2019t realize how important innovation in the baby space was, but the small details\u2014not having to bring a base everywhere with you, having travel systems of strollers and car seats that work together, making the strollers easy to disassemble, and get you on with your day\u2014add up over time. If I\u2019m annoyed that it takes a full ten minutes to get my kids into a car and load up their strollers and gear, it sours the experience of getting out of the house.<\/p>\n<p>I know myself, and over time, a poor experience will make me less likely to want to get out with them and go see the world, and that\u2019s not the kind of mom I want them to be. I want them to be by my side to fly home to see my family in Texas. I want to take them on adventures just outside their backyard in New York City. I want them to experience new places and watch them take it all in. Brands like Nuna equip parents to do that by making things easy and seamless. Today, a ripe Uber history; tomorrow, a full passport.<\/p>\n<div class=\"disclaimers__after_content mb-[18px] mt-[16px] pt-[16px]\">\n<div class=\"outline-earmark relative mt-[8px] pt-[10px] pl-[20px]\">\n<p>\n            Our editors independently select these products.
