I want to score a good black friday deal on a convertible car seat. Nuna rava seems the nicest but Im torn between that and getting a rotating one (evenflo, city jogger, cybex etc) help ☺️

Hi everyone,

Just wanted to ask if anyone happened to talk to an insider at Nordstrom for the sale items this year, especially for Nuna convertible car seats. Anyone figure with the new tariffs and the price increase, the sale % would be much lower this time?

2 Questions I would love some input on!

1. Thoughts on the Nuna Revv 360? Is it worth the $$$ or is something along the lines of the Jogger City Turn, Chicco, Britax or Evenflo a better buy?

2. Is the swivel feature worth it, or is the Nuna RAVA or Exec worth considering as well?

…if you arent 100% sure about it. I purchased a Nuna Rava from Nordstrom.com as I do not have any stores around me that carry higher-end car seats. Opened the box, decided it was too high up on the sides for my larger baby and immediately put it back in box to return to UPS. The return policy is not the standard Nordstrom policy, and it is my fault for not reading the fine print. I ended up without a refund after waiting for weeks after they received the car seat. I had to reach out to customer service only to find out that they recycled the box and I will not be receiving the $680 I paid.

Learn from my mistake 😭

My wife and I are looking into rotating convertible car seats and we've narrowed it down to the Nuna Revv and Baby Jogger City Turn. The main reasons are: 1 - it's challenging for my shorter wife to lift our baby into our SUV (4Runner) and 2 - I got back issues and I imagine the twisting motion to load/unload baby would be really painful over time.

Nuna Revv:

• Pros:

  • Full 360 turn

  • Ability to adjust recline without uninstalling/reinstalling the seats

  • Anti-rebound panel

• Cons:

  • *Rattling noise* - been reading on reddit about people's experience with a loud rattling sound with their Revv

  • Lower weight limit (40lbs)

    • I'm reading we would need another seat before getting a booster?

  • Price ($100 more than the City Turn)

Baby Jogger City Turn:

• Pros:

  • Higher weight limit (65lbs)

  • Rotation brings baby 10 inches closer

• Cons:

  • Rotation only available while rear-facing

  • Cannot adjust recline when installed

  • No anti-rebound bar/panel

I've watched a bunch of installation and review videos but I'm really looking for some real/unfiltered ownership feedback with either of these car seats from y'all. Thanks in advance!
