What immediately stands out about this stroller is its impressive weight — at just 25.2 pounds, it's remarkably lightweight for a double stroller, making it a genuine contender in both the everyday and travel stroller categories.
Inside the box, you’ll find a sleek chassis with all-wheel suspension and durable EVA foam-filled tires, ready to handle various terrain with ease. Also included is a removable and rotating armbar that spans across both seats — it functions as a safety bar for your little ones and doubles as a convenient carry handle when the stroller is folded.
The stroller comes equipped with two independent UPF 50+ water-repellent canopies, each with flip-out eyeshades and peek-a-boo mesh windows for airflow. For those surprising weather moments (aka, parenting reality), Nuna includes a rain cover to keep your passengers dry and cozy.
From Birth to Big Kids
Got a newborn and toddler who's still mastering the art of walking more than three steps without dramatic falls? The TRVL dubl has your back!
Each seat reclines independently to a near-flat position and has a calf support that raises to convert seats to a carriage position, making it newborn-ready without the need for a separate bassinet. One child can nap while the other stays upright and alert in their five-point harness — no arguments required.
The TRVL dubl also turns into a full-on travel system by attaching a Nuna PIPA series infant car seat. Pop that baby right in without adapters — because the last thing you need is another small plastic part to lose in the black hole that is your car floor. The armbar ingeniously converts to a car seat adapter, proving that Nuna designers have your best interests in mind.
For parents of twins, both seats recline to create cozy little cocoons, complete with smart snap features at the bottom that prevent your ninja-rolling newborns from executing their great escape plans!
Convenience Meets Maneuverability
In a world where most double strollers have the turning radius of a cruise ship, the TRVL dubl is refreshingly compact.
At 30.5 inches wide, this side-by-side stroller actually fits through standard doorways so you won't have to perfect the awkward "sideways shuffle" or become known as "that parent" who blocks entryways. The front swivel wheels lock for navigating grocery store aisles or added stability when on bumpy paths.
But the real magic happens when it's time to fold this bad boy up. With just one hand (because your other arm is invariably holding a child, phone, or coffee), the TRVL dubl collapses with a satisfying whoosh into a self-standing package!
Thoughtful Features for Real Parents
Nuna clearly designed the TRVL dubl after extensive field research.
The self-guiding MagneTech secure snap buckles practically close themselves, a godsend when you're trying to strap in a toddler who's suddenly decided they're auditioning for Cirque du Soleil.
An extra-large storage basket holds up to 22 pounds — which might not accommodate your entire Target haul, but will certainly hold enough diapers, wipes, snacks, backup snacks, water bottles, backup clothes, and random rocks your toddler collected to get you through an afternoon outing.
The quick-engaging braking system means you can stop the stroller with a tap of your foot —crucial for safety (or when you spot a coffee shop!).
But perhaps most importantly, each seat and canopy operate independently, because nothing says sibling harmony like one child wanting full sun exposure while the other prefers to nap in peace.
Style Without Sacrifice
The TRVL dubl proves that practical doesn't have to mean plain.
The stroller features luxe leatherette accents on the push bar and removable (and rotating) armbar, adding a touch of sophistication to your daily outings.
While maintaining a clean, modern aesthetic, the stroller doesn't sacrifice durability or functionality for style. The water-repellent canopies not only look sleek but provide serious protection from the elements with their UPF 50+ rating. The overall design manages to be both visually appealing and highly functional — a winning combination for parents who don't want to choose between form and function.
Perfect for Travel & Beyond
While the "TRVL" in the name might seem aspirational if your current idea of a vacation is a solo trip to your bedroom for a timeout, this stroller actually makes family adventures seem possible again!
Its lightweight frame makes it easy for taking on the go, fitting easily into most vehicles while still leaving plenty of room for your long-weekend luggage.
Also, unlike many travel strollers that feel one pothole away from complete collapse, the TRVL dubl offers surprisingly robust construction. This means it works equally well for vacations as well as day-to-day errands and school runs!
Double the Fun
With the TRVL dubl Stroller, Nuna has done the impossible — they’ve made a side-by-side double stroller that doesn’t feel like a compromise.
It’s lightweight without feeling flimsy, stylish without sacrificing practicality, and offers all the functionality growing families need: from seamless car seat integration to nap-ready reclines and parent-friendly folding.
Whether you’re navigating nap schedules, café doorways, or cross-country flights, the TRVL dubl has your back (times two!).
So go ahead and double up. With the right gear, you don’t have to scale back your adventures just because your crew got a little bigger.
