Easy to Assemble
The best stroller-car seat combos are easy to assemble, attach to your vehicle and then remove from the stroller. A good rule of thumb is to aim for 5 minutes or less to get everything ready to go, Moriarty says. A simple, intuitive procedure can help you avoid a mistake which could put your child at risk.
In our tests we found that the Graco City Select 2 Car Seat and Stroller Travel System was rated first in terms of ease of assembly with an assembly time of less than 30 seconds. We plugged in the included infant car seat and toddler seat which was then connected to the base using one click. Next, we connected the lower and upper adapters to create space for an additional seat (sold separately) or bassinet. This created an all-in-one stroller that can expand with your family, offering over 22 seating options with the included seat and up to 45 pounds of weight capacity in each seat.
UPPAbaby's Vista v2 Combo impressed us too with its all-wheel suspension that is springy that can handle even rough roads. The combination isn't cheap, but it does come with an infant car seat, bassinet, and weather shield to keep your baby comfy.
We also noticed how it was simple to move the stroller and car seat. The City Mini GT Combo from Baby Jogger comes with one wheel on the front which is ideal for turning around corners or going down narrow aisles. Meanwhile, 2 in 1 carrycot and pushchair and BOB Alterrain Pro have swivel wheels that can handle tight turns. We found these models to be a breeze to push, even with a full car seat seated on top. We also loved that the frame folds down easily and compactly.
The most simple-to-use combination was the Doon. Its simple one-hand fold ("awesome that it can be done with an infant on your hip!" says an editor) and small size make it a great space-saving device. It's also a breeze remove the car seat from the base with a click and a release. The only drawback is that it requires straps for the carrier to be secured. Parents may overlook them, but that's just an inconvenience.
Easy to Fold
A 2-in-1 car seat and stroller will make your life easier by streamlining your daily routine. If you often use public transportation or ride-share vehicles, it's particularly beneficial to be able to move your child from car to stroller without any hassle. "Look for a system that can be easily removed from the base, and can be attached and removes from the frame of the stroller with a one-hand motion," Moriarty advises. The Doona Combo is a great example of a car seat and stroller combo that meets these requirements.
The unique design of this stroller makes it easy to transform the infant carrier into a toddler seat. You can then change the car seat to meet your child's growing needs. It's also designed to be small and folds flat, making it an excellent choice for travelers. It was easy to move during our tests, and the suspension is excellent. We love the fact that it is able to be towed off with the seat attached and that the handlebar can be adjusted.
The Doona is not suitable for babies less than 4 months, since it can be taken off just with one hand and then attached to the stroller. It is also difficult to fold when the infant carrier is on. Nuna Pipa which does not require an additional base and is a more suitable option for babies. It also has a rigid LATCH connector built into the car seat.
It's more expensive than the Doona but it comes with other features that make it well worth the investment. The Pipa is lightweight and folds into an unsupported position, so it's easy to tote around. It's also a little larger than the Doona and can hold a medium-size backpack. Its canopy is impressive, offering multiple options for adjusting the amount of coverage and allowing shade. It's a great option for international travel since it can be mounted in the car without a base, and is able to fly. The only drawback is that it can't fit in an overhead bin on most airplanes.
Convenient Cargo Area
When you are looking for a car seat stroller combination you should make sure that the stroller has enough space to hold the items of your child as well as your own. Consider features such as an ample storage basket and a hook for the diaper bag and an exterior cargo pocket that can accommodate water bottles.

A stroller that has an adjustable handlebar is another convenient feature. You'll need to adjust the handlebar to different heights in order to feel comfortable while pushing the stroller. You'll want to be able modify the footrest so that it fits the growing toes of your child.
A travel system with an infant bassinet is ideal for infants and newborns. The Mompush Meteor 2 makes a great choice because it can swiftly transform from a bassinet to the seat. This means you don't need to change your baby's stroller and car seat as they develop.
The Evenflo Shyft DualRide is a good example of the stroller and car seat combination that folds easily and compactly. It's a bit larger and heavier than other options (weighing 17 lbs with the car seat in place) however, it comes with many features that will make up for the extra weight, including a large canopy, simple-to-use brakes, and a simple-to-read display screen.
Other aspects to be aware of when choosing a car seat and stroller include a recline with one hand as well as a simple harness and buckles, as well as an extended sun canopy. The one-hand recline is particularly useful because it allows you to adjust the angle of the seat with a squirmy toddler in tow. The easy-to-use harness and buckle eliminate the need for complicated straps, making it simpler to secure your child.

Travel systems are a great option for those who must do errands and public transportation. They can manage the bustle of city life. There are models with an ultra-light frame, durable plastic wheels, and an expandable canopy that provides plenty of shade on sunny days. These models are generally easier to maneuver than more expensive, heavier models designed for rough terrain. However, they may still bump into curbs and sidewalks that are uneven.

You'll also want a stroller which includes a tray for parents and an appropriate drink or snack tray. Some models have a large basket as well.
