A 2 in 1 Travel System

A car seat and stroller combination is the best choice for anyone who wants to travel comfortably or design a more modern version of a pram. Read the specs carefully to make sure your car seat and pushchair work together, or consider buying an adapter.

Travel systems that have been evaluated by editors allow you to move your baby who is sleeping in the car to the stroller without disrupting them. Some travel systems come with a carrycot to encourage natural sleep.

Car Seat

A 2-in-1 travel set includes a stroller and an infant car seat that snap together. This is a great solution for parents who often make errands, or take their baby on rides or public transport. "You'll have less equipment to handle," explains Graco spokeswoman Rachel Stanton. "And it's great for families who alternate between carpooling with other moms or taking public transportation."

The best option is the Doona infant car seat and latch base, which gets 90% of five-star reviews on Amazon. It's a rear-facing car seat that converts to a stroller that can be turned into a rolling one. The change is quick and easy. When not in use the wheels can be folded down and it's a compact. The Doona can also be attached to a car's backseat using the LATCH base that is rigid, or to taxi-safety belts. This makes it ideal for urban families.

The Mamas and Papas Pramette is another top car seat/stroller combo, with the pram having a hood and the front seat, which opens for you to lay your child down to sleep or for feedings. It comes with a large basket, cup holders, and a sun shade to store your baby's essentials. The stroller seat has an adjustable reclining seat that can recline to a flat position, so your baby is comfortable for every ride.





Full Record and height limits are important. Also, consider whether the infant car seat can be used only with a backseat belt or when it has a sturdy LATCH system integrated into. Find a lock for the handle to ensure that the handle stays in the right place. You can also tilt the handle towards the rear seatback to create an anti-rebound bar.

It's important to note that travel systems work only with infant car seats, and extended-use car seats that later be turned forward-facing convert into strollers. Many moms decide to purchase a separate car seat and stroller once their child is no longer in an infant seat.

Stroller

A stroller is an essential piece of equipment for any new parent. Some travel systems have a baby pram that transforms into a comfortable infant carrycot so your child can rest comfortably on the go, making them ideal for newborns and parents who do not want to disturb them when travelling. Some brands also offer the option of a car seat and stroller combination that can be clicked together. This means that you can keep your child safely secured in the car seat, and then transfer them to a stroller without disturbing them, which is ideal for long drives and busy shopping centers.

A quality stroller must include plenty of features to make it practical and user-friendly. It should have a large basket that can put away essentials like nappies or snacks, as well as toys and toys. It should also be in a position to recline to provide your baby a restful and comfortable sleep. It should also have a canopy to protect your child from sun, and a lockable wheel at the front to ensure safety. Additionally, it should be lightweight and compact enough for storage or transporting to and from the car.

Editor-tested travel system strollers such as the UPPAbaby Cruz v2 Combo, Chicco Keyfit Caddy and Doona Combo all have the benefit of connecting to a variety of top car seats that snap to the frame and fold down effortlessly. Some have one wheel on each leg, making them easier to move and roll over different surfaces.

Ideal strollers should be capable of carrying your child through the stage of toddlerhood, and beyond and allow you to continue to use it to transport them to and from events, school and play dates. When your child outgrows their car seat, you should look for a stroller that has a seat facing the world and can recline.

If you plan on using your 2-in-1 travel system on public transportation choose one with an ISOFIX base to ensure that it is safe to get on and off trains or buses. Some models, like the Doona can be installed on planes and trains to make traveling with your baby easier.
