Moon Nuova

DISCONTINUED in 2021
see 31 parent reviews

The Moon Nuova City is a 2in1 stroller system with a robust chassis featuring smaller foam-covered front wheels and larger rear wheels covered in rubber. The 2017 and older versions, on the other hand, featured wheels with tires filled with foam and a carrycot canopy that could not be extended.

The seat unit is fully reversible and reclines up to a lie-flat; even the leg rest is adjustable. A specific feature of the Nuova model is a double reclining mechanism using a lever as well as a strap. The sun canopy on the seat unit is extendable with a ventilation mesh panel for better airflow. For newborns, a full-featured, foldable carrycot is included. To create a travel system, adapters for a car seat (Maxi-Cosi type) are included in the 2in1 set.

The Moon Nuova VS. Nuova 2021 differences

The Nuova (City) was discontinued in 2021 to be re-released in a new, 2021+ version with a bucket-type seat with a higher, 22kg weight capacity (as opposed to 15 kg of the original Nuova) and a lever-operated recline, and new, narrower wheels. The 2021 version also has a cup holder included. The 2021 Moon Nuova carrycot and other features stay the same, compared to the 2020 Nuova.

parents say thx^^

Very good

5
  • Good wheels also suitable for worse terrain
  • Extended canopy
  • Nice design
  • Easy to handle
  • I noticed none so far

A very good stroller. I am happy with it.

  • Good driving characteristics
  • Easy to handle
  • Lightweight-ish for a system
  • Canopy on the seat is foldable, has ventilation - no visor needed
  • Weak suspension
  • The baby cannot be rocked
  • The bassinet is more open
  • Front wheels made of foam

It's really easy to control. You can go off-road, but it won't be very comfortable for a child. The suspension is not great.

I had to have a shade on the bassinet, the opening to the canopy is quite large, so the protection against wind or sun is not much. On newer models, the canopy can be extended even on the bassinet.

Otherwise I was satisfied, although I missed the ability to rock the baby. The stroller seat is spacious and has an absolutely luxurious canopy. I just felt that when it adjusts to the maximum sitting position, it's still more of a semi-recliner. My baby didn't want to lean back in it. It was great for sleeping, though.

I ended up selling the stroller and buying something more compact and lighter for the car. For my next baby, I'm going to get a stroller with the ability to rock the baby properly.

I give it full marks.

  • Very easy to steer
  • The stroller handles even more difficult terrain
  • It is very easy to push, even with one hand
  • Has a large basket
  • The bassinet is spacious
  • The canopy can be beautifully extended
  • The baby can observe the world even when riding on the tummy
  • The seat can be put lying down, the canopy can be extended nicely
  • A bit bulkier seat unit

I wasn't completely satisfied with the stroller at the beginning, but after half a year I can say that I am very happy with my choice.

Very good quality stroller
