Nuna Mixx 2 vs Valco Snap Ultra Trend
Posted by Active Baby Canadian Online Baby Store on 2018 Jul 27th
A good stroller can be a fair-sized investment, so you will want to be sure that you are putting your money into something that is appropriate for you, and as always, we are here to give you information to help you make your decision.
Today, we look at the Nuna Mixx2 and the Valco Snap Ultra Trend. Which is the one for you?
Nuna Mixx 2
You may already be familiar with the original Nuna Mixx, which released a number of years ago to instant success. A stylish, functional stroller, it was a hit with parents right from the start.
The Nuna Mixx 2 is very similar to the original, but it does sport some luxury upgrades.
Although the original Mixx was quite popular, there were some areas that parents felt could be improved upon, the two biggest being the lack of a bassinet, and the lack of accessories. The Mixx 2 solves both of these problems with the option to attach a bassinet directly to the frame without any adapters, and the addition of some optional accessories such as a cup holder, child tray, and travel bag.
The buggy is usable as a travel system using a colour-matching Pipa car seat (sold separately). It has a quick and easy compact fold (with a trolley function when folded) and features one-handed 5-position recline, extendable leg rest, a hand-sewn vegan leather handle bar, chrome-accented black wheels, and a very large basket. The large UFP 50+ canopy has double quilted stitch work, and fabrics are a hand-picked tweed textiles blend.
With all-wheel suspension and large all-terrain wheels, the Nuna Mixx 2 features a smooth, incredibly manoeuvrable ride. This is a sleek, attractive, functional, and highly responsive stroller that will satisfy any parent.
Key features:
- Convertible 3- or 5- point anti-loop harness
- 5-position recline, including true-flat sleeper recline

- Stroller weight (not including canopy or arm bar): 26.8 lbs.
Valco Snap Ultra Trend

The Trend lineup is a redesign and upgrade from previous models, usable from birth onward. The Snap Ultra Trend is not only highly fashionable, it also has a number of great features.
