Kona support
Kona is the everyday mid-size pram: a full-size seat and basket on a 9.9 kg frame that is 53.3 cm wide, folds with one hand with the seat still on, and takes one child from birth to 22.7 kg.
Everything for owning one, on a single page: answers, the manual, videos, what attaches to it, parts, and the programmes that stand behind it.
Quick answers
Can I use the Kona from birth?
Yes, as sold. The seat lies flat, so a newborn goes straight in with nothing extra to buy. If you would rather, the UPPAbaby bassinet and the Mesa capsule click straight onto the frame with no adapters.
Does the Mesa capsule fit the Kona?
Yes, directly, with no adapters. Capsules from other brands do not fit the Kona.
How do I fold the Kona?
With one hand, from standing, with the seat still on and whichever way it is facing. Folded it is 34.0 x 53.3 x 65.5 cm and it stands up on its own. The fold and unfold video below shows each step.
How heavy is the Kona?
9.9 kg with the frame and seat together, with a carry handle built into the frame for stairs and public transport.
Can the Kona carry two children?
No. The Kona takes one child and no accessory changes that. An older child can ride on the Kona PiggyBack board, which is coming soon. If a second baby is likely, the Vista V3 is the frame that takes two.
How do I adjust the harness?
The five-point harness adjusts at the shoulders and the buckle as your child grows. The harness adjustment video below is the Australian version, which matches the harness on Australian Konas.
Do the tyres go flat?
No. They are never-flat tyres on all-wheel suspension, with front wheel locks for gravel and grass.
How do I clean the fabrics?
The seat and basket fabrics come off; the videos below show how. They are spot clean or hand wash only, in cold water with a mild detergent, dried flat out of the sun. Do not machine wash them.
