see 2 parent reviews

The Nuna Demi Grow is the first convertible, single-to-double stroller by Nuna. It was released in the spring of 2018. In the Demi Grow, you can push one child, but also - with or without a height adapter - push two children at the same time. You can, therefore, use the Demi Grow as a full-featured single system as well as a sibling or twin stroller right from birth. The stylish chassis is provided with soft suspension, and for different terrains and child weights, you can even adjust the softness of the suspension system. The rear wheels are equipped with mudguards and see-through protection for the child not to get the fingers in there.

The so-called all-weather seat features a soft insert that is included with it. On a warm day, you can simply put it out, uncovering a mesh backrest allowing airflow. The integrated shade - Dream Drape - is also an asset to have on a sunny day or in bad weather. The bucket type, ergonomic seat shape is suitable from around six months of age. It can be reclined with one-hand operated lever from upright to a laying position. To use the Demi Grow from birth, a carrycot (also equipped with Dream Drape), and adapters for different car seat brands. Car seat adapters, height adapters, and a rain cover are included with the Demi Grow - but there are other accessories available optionally as well, e.g., a travel bag with wheels to protect it during travels.

With a sold-separately second seat, second carrycot, or a second car seat with adapters, you can create up to 23 different configurations of the Demi Grow to suit your and your children's needs. The second seat unit is full-featured, and it clicks on right into the attachments integrated on the sides of the basket (the feet of the child will go into the basket). The same attachments are used with the second bassinet or car seat.

Parent reviews of the Nuna Demi Grow

4.5/5
Add YOUR review
if you own(ed) it, own it ;-)
parents say thx^^
  • Integrated sun shield
  • Nice canopy ventilation
  • Integrated carrycot pocket (luxurious!)
  • Super easy clicking on parts, seats...
  • Easy and self-standing fold
  • Easy manipulation, one-handed push
  • Tackles a bit of terrain (bumps)
  • Lightweight to be carried up stairs
  • Quality materials (while it still feels light)
  • Single to double hybrid stroller, can be used for two kids (and both have full sized seats)
  • Perfect adjustable handlebar, nice to touch and hold
  • Beautiful in the city
  • Reversible seat unit
  • There's a basic suspension but no rocking, nothing soft
  • Therefore, not much for harsh terrain
  • A bit wide in the rear part - not the best for very narrow aisles in small shops

We were surprised about how many nice features and thought-out little details this stroller has. If there would be a bit of a softer suspension, I would have found no fault, really.

Also, it is quite tall, so tall parents won't have to bend to their knees. I appreciated that I didn't have to bend much, no straining my back.

We were choosing between the Nuna and the Joolz Geo. And the Joolz looked less detailed, less well-made, less of quality, compared with Nuna.

  • tandem function
  • good suspension
  • large, removable shopping basket
  • integrated sunshade in both the bassinet and the seat unit hood
  • bucket-type seat
  • integrated bassinet pocket
  • rear wheels feature mudguards
  • lockable swivel wheels in the front
  • manipulation is not one of the easiest

This pram is very practical for children born not that far apart - with a seat unit in the lower rear part (facing in the basket) and a bassinet in the upper part (more in the front). These two parts can also switch places, depending on the situation and your needs. It is also suitable for just one child - if used like that, the shopping basket is huge. We loved it both in the city and in worse terrain conditions. You have to take into account that it is on the heavier side, but it is understandable because it has to be able to take in two children if necessary. One-handed manipulation is very nice.

Your questions about the Nuna Demi Grow

1)

Hi,

Can you use a Cybex car seat with this stroller frame?

Hi, Emma,

If you can get your hands on the Maxi-Cosi adapters, then yes, you can. These are, however, not sold everywhere anymore, and without those, it won't be possible. Definitely check the availability of those adapter before getting the car seat.

Im after a courier but they ask for weight as a single, length, height and width in cms. Hope you can help?

Hiya, Kaz,

All info is under the stroller, in the main section of Specifications. The pram is 110.5 cm x 61 cm x 100 cm when unfolded, and 89 cm x 61 cm x 60 cm when folded. With the seat, it weights 12.5 kg.

Hi, Leonor,

Yes, with the Maxi-Cosi/Cybex-style adapters, you can attach a Recaro 0+ car seat.
