One of the safest and most popular infant car seats on the market is the lightest, too: The Nuna PIPA Lite weighs just 5.3 pounds―making it 2.6 pounds lighter than the original PIPA and lighter than any other car seat in the world.

Despite its weight, the PIPA Lite doesn't skimp on safety. Unlike most car seats made with non-flexible foam, the PIPA Lite is made with a first-of-its-kind?flexible foam that compresses to absorb forces in a crash.?

Like the PIPA, the PIPA Lite snaps into a steel-reinforced base with a load leg that attaches to the floor of your vehicle for extra stability. According to Nuna, the load leg helps minimize forward rotation during a crash by up to 90 percent.?

The PIPA Lite includes?fire-resistant fabrics free of flame retardant chemicals, a memory foam headrest, and a leather-look handle. Unlike the PIPA Lite LX, it does not include the?Sky Drape magnetic cover and, unlike the PIPA, it cannot be installed without the base for taxis or travel.?The PIPA Lite?meets the standards for Greenguard?Gold certification, which means?it has been?thoroughly tested and certified to not contribute VOC's, or hazardous chemicals, into the air your child breathes.
