If you’re on the lookout for a stroller that’s not just functional but also oozes style, the new TAVO Next from Nuna might just be just what you’ve been dreaming of! 

The TAVO Next builds on the solid reputation of the TAVO, which was already a favourite for its blend of practicality and chic design. But Nuna didn’t stop there, they listened to feedback and made a bunch of tweaks that make this new version even better. 

This fresh model takes everything that made the original TAVO great and amps it up with some smart, parent-friendly upgrades. Picture a stroller that’s sleek, easy to use, and designed to make your life easier — all while looking pretty darn fashionable.
 

So, if you’re ready to step up your strolling game with a product that combines cutting-edge features and classic good looks, the Nuna TAVO Next is definitely worth checking out.  

Let’s dive into what makes it stand out and how it compares to the original TAVO! 

The Specs

  • Recommended Use: Birth (with seat insert and seat in flat position or with a PIPA series car seat) to 50 lbs 
  • Stroller Weight: 24.3 lbs. without armbar and canopy (armbar and canopy approx. 1.1 lbs.)
  • Assembled Dimensions: 22.4"w x 28.4"l x 43.7"h
  • Folded Dimensions: 22.4"w x 28.4"l x 20.8"h
  • Storage Basket: 13”W x 7”D x 18”H 
  • Rear Wheel Diameter: 9.5” 
  • Front Wheel Diameter: 7.5” 
  • Handle: 16” 
  • Footrest: 14”W x 8"D 

Like the OG TAVO, the TAVO Next boasts a sleek design and can be used straight from birth, both with an infant car seat and in the stroller seat itself. This is because the stroller has a one-hand, four-position flat reclining backrest and adjustable calf support that can be used with the removable infant insert to provide extra support for newborn riders. Once your baby outgrows the insert, simply remove it and you have a spacious seat for stretching and lounging.

Comfort & Style 

The TAVO Next ensures your baby stays comfortable year-round with a blend of polyester and bamboo fabrics. The stroller has an all-season seat that converts to mesh on warm days by unzipping the ventilation panel on the back of the seat and removing the padded insert. The adjustable leg support and near-flat recline make it easy for your little one to nap comfortably.  

The updated UPF 50+ canopy is another highlight, offering greater coverage with an extendable, zip-out feature. On hot days, the canopy’s ventilation panels allow a refreshing breeze to reach your little one. 

The TAVO Next also has a large storage basket with hidden zipper compartment and is decked out with new luxe leatherette details on both the height-adjustable handlebar and the removable bumper bar. The new model’s aesthetic upgrades not only add a touch of elegance but also blend seamlessly with the stroller’s enhanced functionality. 

Magnetic Magic 

Safety is always a top priority, and Nuna has made strides with the TAVO Next. The stroller has a three- or five-point anti-loop, no-rethread harness with a new MagneTech Secure Snap buckle. This innovative buckle effortlessly guides and locks into place, simplifying the process of securing your child. No more fumbling; just a quick snap, and you’re good to go. This little feature reduces frustration, especially when dealing with a wiggly toddler. 

A Gliding Experience 

When it comes to maneuverability, the TAVO Next takes it up a notch. Thanks to its new rear wheels made of rubber instead of the previous polyurethane, the ride is noticeably smoother. The upgraded suspension system also enhances the stroller’s ability to absorb bumps and jolts, ensuring your baby enjoys a more comfortable ride. Whether you’re navigating city streets or park paths, the TAVO Next’s improved suspension and rubber wheels make pushing effortless and enjoyable.

The Fold-Ability Factor 

The standout feature of the Nuna TAVO Next is its folding mechanism. Unlike the original TAVO, which required a bit of effort to get a good fold, the TAVO Next introduces a much-needed enhancement. It now boasts a standing fold design, which means you can fold it in one step with one hand and it will stand upright on its own. This is a game-changer for parents juggling groceries or a baby in one arm. Plus, it's 7 inches shorter when folded compared to its predecessor, making it easier to stash in the trunk or a closet. The redesigned rear axle, which lets the wheels retract underneath the frame, contributes to this more compact fold.

Effortless Car Seat Compatibility 

One of the coolest features of the Nuna TAVO Next stroller is how it integrates with Nuna’s range of PIPA car seats without needing any adapters. That’s right — no fiddling with extra parts or complicated setups! You can easily attach any of the Nuna PIPA series car seats right onto the stroller. Just recline the stroller seat, and the infant car seat clicks right into place between the seat and the bumper bar. When it’s time to take the car seat out, you can do it with just one hand by pressing the button on the back of the car seat. It’s all about making your life easier and keeping things super simple for those on-the-go moments.

Your New Stroller BFF 

The TAVO Next Stroller by Nuna combines sleek design with practical improvements to offer a superior strolling experience. The addition of the TAVO Stroller Child Tray accessory enhances convenience, providing a handy spot for snacks and toys, so your little one can enjoy every ride in even greater comfort and style. Whether you’re looking for a smoother ride, a more compact fold, or stylish upgrades, the TAVO Next delivers on all fronts, ensuring your baby enjoys every ride in comfort and style!
