I can’t decide between the Lite LX and the regular Pipa RX. Is it a big deal to need to have the base for installation for the lite lx at all times instead of the RX (which doesn’t need the base)? We live in Phoenix but don’t take Ubers or public transportation. The only thing I can think of being annoying is if my mom or MIL drove baby around and they needed the base. I also just saw someone’s review about the car seat on an airplane and needing the base?? I can’t imagine that’s a huge deal but is it really? It’s so hard to decide! Lol ��

I plan on getting the RX. Baby will be in my car most of the time, so I really don’t feel like we need an extra base, but want to make sure she can go in someone else’s car in case there is an emergency or something.

@zmbeck20,
that’s true! It’s so hard to decide. I hope there isn’t ever an emergency but you just never know

I go the lx, mainly because they don’t make the stroller adapter for the bob stroller for the pipa lite rx! And I will be using that daily! We just got 1 extra base, and if we need to switch one out, it is a very quick and easy install, so I’ve read.

My husband and I went with the Nuna Pipa RX Lite (best of both worlds, but definitely has that hefty price tag��)
We went to Nordstrom and compared the models in-store. Personal opinion, I liked how compact the Lite felt (im pretty small at 4’11 so the lighter/smaller the better for me!)
but I also love the versatility of the RX with the seatbelt thread and ability to adjust reclining positions.
I don’t think you can go wrong, but if you have the ability to check them out in person I’d recommend it :)
Adding: If you’re concerned about an extra base- you can always look on Offer Up or Facebook market place. Even though we got the RX, I still bought another base for my husbands car. Only paid $50 for a 6 month old like-new base on offer up :)
