Thank you for the right angle trick to fix the strap on our Doona. We were frustrated with the seemingly unresolvable twist and thought it was a manufacturing defect that would have been difficult to explain to the manufacturer. I'm glad you were the first hit on Google. Thanks again for your explanation.

[@chrisfroment4176]

OMG your method worked flawlessly. How embarrassing that I've been fighting with this thing for like an hour now lol 😂

[@kaushiknagarajan1485]

Genius! Knew there had to be an easier way than almost recreating Mission Control Houston in our garage to solve this!

[@LauraGlowacki]

You are a genius! This worked so well (took like 15 seconds to fix an issue we had tried for about 30 the other day!)

[@47palmer]

Thank you! This and all the other Maxi Cosi videos are so helpful! Way better than the manuals.

Triangle method worked for me. Thanks!! 👏

[@laurettaspaulding1817]

Bless you. Your fix was so easy and effective!

[@geebuttersnaps6680]

Thanks for the first tip! That exact scenario has happened to me twice, usually with a crabby baby and I'm so flustered trying to twist it. Pretty sure it gets twisted the way you showed to un-twist it. Your videos are so helpful!

[@cusackavideos]

You are a life saver I've just spent 30 mins trying to get this fixed and you had the solution thank you 👍👍👍

[@thecarseatlady1]

so glad this helped you!!!

[@caseyrich9297]

YOU ARE THE BEST!

[@Laura-po1dj]

I’m embarrassed to admit but I tried the first method a couple times watching other videos and I couldn’t get it but after watching how you did it, it worked instantly for me! Pushing the silver clip to the bottom was really helpful. Thank you!!

[@deenawereminsky2566]

This was so helpful! I just used the first tip while we were on vacation and was a life saver.

[@ellachamp]

Thank you so much for this!

[@carolwood8263]

Thank you so so much! Was tearing my hair out!

[@Crazytown]

You Genius, now I know how my wife and Dad have been causing this issue. Easily fixed with your method, no need for the flathead screwdriver anymore.

[@oliverkirk3343]

Thank you for the video! Really helped!

[@andHammersForTeeth]

Thank you ! Worked first try

[@ramseybinns3987]

This was an amazing tip thank you so much!!

[@Zukanoff]

Thank you!!! I haven't had this issue yet with our Nuna Rava seat yet (great install video by the way), but it did immediately solve a twisted buckle on our UppaBaby stroller seat that I had tried fruitlessly to fix - THANK YOU!

[@thecarseatlady1]

So glad it helped! If you find yourself in the market for a new car seat at any time, the Clek car seats are the only ones with straps that don't twist.

[@Zukanoff]

@@thecarseatlady1 Also great to know - thanks!

[@MacBlake]

Thank you so much for making this vid. Lifesaver!

Thank you very helpful.

[@DDDD-hv3ub]

[@normish]

Thank you! Lifesaver!

[@helloseacattle]

[@michaelrichardson8291]

Omg thanks so much, I had learnt the first trick and was trying to use it to fix the second trick problem, which my wife caused. I did the triangle about 20 Times and it just changes the position of the twist.

[@michaelcostaphoto]
