So to give a little bit more information I have my own driveway, but have to walk up a flight of stairs to get to my apartment. I have my own car and I’m constantly driving around but also enjoy going on long walks and would enjoy having some storage at the bottom. I’m looking for something like the Doona which can be a car seat and stroller and also a bassinet. TIA!

Also where is the best place to buy one in terms of price?

If you’re up a flight then the doona is not a good choice for you because it’s extra weight to carry up the stairs for no reason. I would get something like an uppababy or Citi select where you can snap in your car seat or your bassinet or eventually your regular seat.

You’re not gona find something that’s a stroller and a car seat in one besides the Doona
I love my Doona ftr it’s great for in and out of the car. I also don’t have a driveway so if I need to park farther it’s great for that. Can’t do shopping til baby can sit in the wagon though.
Also love my dragonfly- folds with the bassinet it’s light and smooth, big enough basket underneath. You can fold it and leave at the bottom of stairs it’s not bulky and opens and folds one handedly

Do one of the sturdy bassinet stroller options mentioned here and get a car seat that attaches. It’s a win win. You have a regular stroller with basket option when you go walking/shopping, and a car seat for travel.
Many strollers have either adapters or specific car seats that click in.
The end of the day it’s 1 extra step to fold the stroller base and put into the trunk, but you get so much more for it.
Personally, I have a maxi cosi car seat and love it. If baby is sleeping, the car seat is light enough for me to bring baby up the stairs into my house and I can leave the base downstairs. (There are lighter car seats too).

The evenflow dualryde is the same idea, and the wheels come off so it's easier if you want to shlep it up the steps. And it comes with a storage bag.
But it just might be simplest to get a bigger stroller and car seat adapters of you want nice walking stroller.

The donkey is made to be a double stroller that can very easily be converted to a single. I have the donkey. It's a big carriage buy wheels amazing amazing. If you have a few steps it's also very easy to pump it up and down. I don't regret buying the donkey one bit.
Doona is a car seat carriage. Love it as well.

Cybex Priam is what I have, comfortable to push my baby on the street.
Now that he's going to playgroup- with steps, looking for a lightweight one that's slimmer, reasonable price.

TIA

Im of the opinion that everyone needs 2 strollers. A walking stroller and a travel/car stroller.
Trying to get one that is for both will compromise significantly in both areas.
